Tossavainen, Timo; Attorps, Iiris; Väisänen, Pertti – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2012
In this paper, we examine the concept definitions a group of South African upper secondary school mathematics teachers (N = 47) express and how their understanding of the truth value, the role of variable and the syntax of expression appear in the participants' explanations for their assessment of examples and non-examples of equations. We use…
