Visualization and argumentation are central processes in the learning of geometry, giving rise to specific lines of research in mathematics education. However, it is worth asking whether they should be developed independently or if it is possible and in what way an articulation between them can be promoted. The objective of this paper is to search…

Ilya Sinitsky – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2023
The ability to solve geometric construction problems is justly regarded as an essential component of mathematical culture. The dynamic, general nature of objects provided by dynamic geometry systems allows the development of intuitive methods for solving construction problems. The core mathematical concept underlying this approach is the loci…

Yao, Xiangquan – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2022
As a distinct mode of mathematical representation and communication, geometry diagrams are both signs that represent abstract geometric concepts and visual images that offer graphical-spatial properties. Dynamic geometly environment offers a wide range of tools for its users to create and interact with geometry diagrams. In this paper, I propose a…

Schrier, Joshua – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Multicomponent solution calculations can be complicated for students and practiced chemists alike. This article describes how to simplify the calculations by representing a solution's composition as a point in a "concentration space," whose axes are the concentrations of each solute. The graphical representation of mixing processes in a…

Vagova, Renata; Kmetova, Maria; Lavicza, Zsolt – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2020
Although we move and live in three-dimensional space, many prefer "two-dimensional" thinking in mathematics lessons. As a result, the transition between physical objects and their graphical representations can be considered one of the most common difficulties in learning and teaching solid geometry. This paper describes results of our…

Calculus Students' Quantitative Reasoning in the Context of Solving Related Rates of Change Problems
Mkhatshwa, Thembinkosi P. – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2020
Despite the increasing amount of research on students' quantitative reasoning at the secondary level, research on students' quantitative reasoning at the undergraduate level is scarce. The present study used task-based interviews to examine 16 high-performing undergraduate calculus students' quantitative reasoning in the context of solving three…

Žakelj, Amalija; Klancar, Andreja – European Journal of Educational Research, 2022
Visual representations and the process of visualisation have an important role in geometry learning. The optimal use of visual representations in complex multimedia environments has been an important research topic since the end of the last century. For the purpose of the study presented in this paper, we designed a model of learning geometry with…

Unal, Deniz Ozen; Hollebrands, Karen; McCulloch, Allison; Scher, Daniel; Steketee, Scott – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2022
The purpose of this study was to examine prospective teachers ' uses of diagrams and approaches to congruence while solving proof tasks. Eight prospective high school mathematics teachers were given three proof tasks to solve at the beginning and end of a mathematics education course. The course used the history of mathematics as the context for…

Kiernan, Nicola A.; Manches, Andrew; Seery, Michael K. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2021
Visuospatial thinking is considered crucial for understanding of three-dimensional spatial concepts in STEM disciplines. Despite their importance, little is known about the underlying cognitive processing required to spatially reason and the varied strategies students may employ to solve visuospatial problems. This study seeks to identify and…

Sholihah, Ummu; Maryono, Maryono – Journal of Research and Advances in Mathematics Education, 2020
Visual thinking plays an essential role in solving problems and in learning mathematics. Many students do not understand how to graphically or geometrically represent problems and solve algebra problems. Visual thinking is the ability, process, and results of creating, interpreting, using, and imagining images and diagrams on paper or with…

Prayitno, Lydia Lia; Purwanto, Purwanto; Subanji, Subanji; Susiswo, Susiswo; As'ari, Abdur Rahman – Participatory Educational Research, 2020
This study is to reveal the construction process of student representation in solving of ill-structured geometry problems. The three phases involved in the construction process are interpreting the problem, giving opinions, and concluding. A total of four high school students participated in Surabaya and Sidoarjo in this qualitative study. They…
