Akbas, Elif Ertem; Alan, Kübra – Open Journal for Educational Research, 2022
In the world where we always meet geometric constructions, it is a necessity to make sense of the objects belonging to these constructions. In this respect, this study aimed to examine the teaching of volume with the blending of the realistic mathematics education (RME) and GeoGebra. The study group consisted of 12 students attending lessons…

Okumus, Samet; Bozkurt, Gulay – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2022
This case study investigates prospective middle school mathematics teachers' use of the Angle tool in GeoGebra, focusing on reflex angles in a geometric construction task. They constructed a parallelogram with individual heights for any two consecutive sides. We analyzed their screencasts to identify the ways in which they used reflex angles in…

Elif Ertem Akbas; Lütfiye Yildirm – Online Submission, 2024
The fact that the mathematics course is abstract, that it is not possible to associate it with daily life, and that it is impossible to concretize abstract expressions causes a prejudice against the this course and leads to a decrease in the academic achievements of students. It is seen that throughout history, various studies have been carried…

Bozkurt, Gülay; Uygan, Candas – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2020
The introduction of digital technologies into mathematics classrooms requires an adaptation by teachers. To develop an understanding of technology integration in classrooms, this research focused on the use of dynamic geometry by a mathematics teacher who was a novice in technology-use, in the context of Turkish secondary school mathematics.…

Öztürk, Tugba; Güven, Bülent – LUMAT: International Journal on Math, Science and Technology Education, 2022
Proof is foundational to mathematics, and constructing proofs and establishing their validity are both important mathematical studies. Determining the validity of a proof is a part of the process of proof evaluation. Proof evaluation contributes to students' ability to construct and revise their own proofs. The purpose of this study was to…
