Bini, Giulia; Robutti, Ornella; Bikner-Ahsbahs, Angelika – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
Mathematical memes are an Internet phenomenon with an epistemic potential noteworthy for the teaching and learning of mathematics. The aim of this paper is to conceptualize this phenomenon on an empirical base, elucidating its educational potential. To pursue this goal, a two-year ethnographic research study has been conducted in a selection of…

Zemel, Alan; Koschmann, Timothy – International Journal of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, 2013
In this paper we examine how two groups of middle school students arrive at shared understandings of and solutions to mathematical problems. Our data consists of logs of student participation in the Virtual Math Teams (VMT) system as they work on math problems. The project supports interaction both through chat and through a virtual whiteboard. We…
