In this study, we investigated the potential of a hypothesized geometrical measurement learning progression (LP) to examine students' thinking and understanding in this domain.We interviewed 30 third to fifth graders using 3 LP-based cognitive tasks that asked the students to find the length, perimeter, area, surface area, and volume measurement…

Direct linkKozulin, Alex; Kazaz, Sigalit – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2017
The present research is aimed at developing an educational program effective for the development of the concepts of perimeter and area in students with LD and testing this program. The study combined action research with quasi-experimental design involving experimental (LD) and comparison (non-LD) groups. The intervention program consisted of 12…

Wood, Marcy B., Ed.; Turner, Erin E., Ed.; Civil, Marta, Ed.; Eli, Jennifer A., Ed. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2016
The theme of this year's conference is "Sin Fronteras: Questioning Borders with(in) Mathematics Education." This theme is intended to encourage research presentations, discussion, and reflection on the variety of borders within mathematics education, as well as those that might be probed, challenged, explained, enhanced and/or…

Miyazaki, Mikio – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2008
The purpose of this research is to construct a conceptual framework for use in capturing students' unstable perception regarding the establishment of the universality of propositions through experimentation/measurement in school geometry. As a conceptual framework, this research uses a quadrangular-pyramid model comprised of five representative…

Silver, Edward A.; Mesa, Vilma M.; Morris, Katherine A.; Star, Jon R.; Benken, Babette M. – American Educational Research Journal, 2009
The authors present an analysis of portfolio entries submitted by candidates seeking certification by the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards in the area of Early Adolescence/Mathematics. Analyses of mathematical features revealed that the tasks used in instruction included a range of mathematics topics but were not consistently…

Peer reviewedHapps, John; Mansfield, Helen – Arithmetic Teacher, 1992
Discusses how students construct mental images that aid estimation skills in the measurement of angles. Reports research identifying four strategies that students use to estimate sizes of angles. Strategies include utilization of the mental images of (1) a protractor; (2) a right angle; (3) a half-turn; and (4) angles of a polygon. (MDH)

Ma, Liping – 1999
This book features a comparative study of American and Chinese mathematics teachers. How teachers understand the content of mathematics and their practice of mathematics teaching is examined. The differences between Chinese and U.S. teachers' knowledge of mathematics for teaching are documented, and how Chinese teachers' understanding of…
