This paper focuses on the emergence of abstraction through the use of a new kind of motion detector--WiiGraph--with 11-year-old children. In the selected episodes, the children used this motion detector to create three simultaneous graphs of position vs. time: two graphs for the motion of each hand and a third one corresponding to their…

We present an instructional approach to teaching causal inference using Bayesian networks and "do"-Calculus, which requires less prerequisite knowledge of statistics than existing approaches and can be consistently implemented in beginner to advanced levels courses. Moreover, this approach aims to address the central question in causal…

This study sets for itself the task of constructing a learning trajectory for the fundamental theorem of calculus (FTC) that takes into account the interaction with an educational digital tool. Students were asked to explain the connections between interactive and multiple-linked representations in an educational digital tool, and to conjecture…
