Pfannkuch, Maxine; Arnold, Pip; Wild, Chris J. – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2015
Currently, instruction pays little attention to the development of students' sampling variability reasoning in relation to statistical inference. In this paper, we briefly discuss the especially designed sampling variability learning experiences students aged about 15 engaged in as part of a research project. We examine assessment and…

Roh, Kyeong Hah – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2008
There are many studies on the role of images in understanding the concept of limit. However, relatively few studies have been conducted on how students' understanding of the rigorous definition of limit is influenced by the images of limit that the students have constructed through their previous learning. This study explored how calculus…

Alcock, Lara; Simpson, Adrian – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2004
This paper examines part of a set of students who were followed during their first-term, first-year studies in formal definition-based real analysis at a British university. It explores the approaches to problems about convergence of sequences and series made by students who have a tendency to include visual imagery in their reasoning. We explore…
