In this study, we investigated prospective secondary mathematics teachers' development of a meaning for the Cartesian form of complex numbers by examining the roots of quadratic equations through quantitative reasoning. Data included transcripts of the two sessions of classroom teaching experiments prospective teachers participated in, written…

Brunner, Esther – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2020
The aim of this pilot study was to develop, practice, and evaluate learning environments that are supposed to foster early mathematical reasoning in kindergarten. The participating kindergarten teachers attended a multi-part PD program. The research focused on the development of their teaching skills, and their reasoning practice over one school…

Schillinger, Tammy – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2021
In 2015 an urban school district reported that 84.6% of third graders did not demonstrate proficiency on the Math Standardized Test, which challenges students to solve problems and justify solutions. Since 2006 there has been a negative trend of proficiency levels on the New York State (NYS) Math Exam in third grade. I propose that students may be…

Deng, Tao; Hu, Bi Ying; Wang, X. Christine; Li, Yuanhua; Jiang, Chunlian; Su, Yijie; LoCasale-Crouch, Jennifer – Early Education and Development, 2023
Research Findings: This study investigated teachers' Concept development (CD) strategy use in whole-group math teaching and its associations with children's higher-order thinking processes in 25 Chinese preschool math lessons. We utilized the CD dimension within the Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS) to guide our exploration. CD…

Zippert, Erica L.; Clayback, Kelsey; Rittle-Johnson, Bethany – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2019
Preschoolers' patterning skills are predictive of their concurrent and later math knowledge; however, it is unclear if patterning is only a proxy for general intelligence, or how it might support specific math skills. The current study examined the relation between 66 preschool children's patterning skills and their general cognitive abilities,…

Sumpter, Lovisa; Hedefalk, Maria – European Journal of STEM Education, 2018
The aim of this paper is to study teachers' roles in preschool children's mathematical reasoning using analysis of epistemological moves. Three moves were identified: instructional moves, confirming move and a new move, concluding move. There were no generative moves encouraging the children to produce different arguments for choice of strategy or…

Marcella-Burdett, Jennifer; Roth, Alexa; Savelkouls, Sophie; Zur, Osnat – WestEd, 2020
This report summarizes the findings across two case studies conducted as part of WestEd's evaluation of the California Statewide Early Math Initiative (CAEMI). The case studies aimed to understand the planning and implementation of professional learning and coaching in local communities. They also examined changes in educators' math knowledge,…

Rizer, Jennifer – ProQuest LLC, 2017
Mathematics education is a critical part of instruction for students around the globe. The foundation for understanding basic mathematical concepts begins early in life. Preschool classrooms can provide the early skills in mathematical reasoning that will be needed later in life. In this study, the author sought to determine if the use of…

MacDonald, Beth L.; Boyce, Steven J.; Xu, Cong ze; Wilkins, Jesse L. M. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2015
This proposal explores how the activity of subitizing--quickly apprehending the numerosity of a small set of items--changes with the development of number concepts. We describe how varying the orientations of items in teaching experiment sessions promoted one pre-schooler, Frank, to attend to subgroups of items and change his thinking about…

McCormick, Kelly K.; Twitchell, Guinevere – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2017
Young children thrive in classrooms that allow them to explore and discover their environment and interests and also support them in this learning. Because children learn best when they are interested and excited, early-childhood educators should offer children play-based, integrated mathematical experiences (NRC 2009). In this article, the…
