Naufal, Muhammad Ammar; Abdullah, Abdul Halim; Osman, Sharifah; Abu, Mohd Salleh; Ihsan, Hisyam – International Journal of Instruction, 2021
Metacognition is the ability to think about thinking. One of the learning models in geometry is the van Hiele model, which consists of learning phases and geometry thinking level. However, geometry learning strategy in Indonesia does not stress metacognition and geometry thinking level. Hence, this study aims to examine the effectiveness of…

Kelsey E. Schenck; Doy Kim; Fangli Xia; Michael I. Swart; Candace Walkington; Mitchell J. Nathan – Grantee Submission, 2024
Access to body-based resources has been shown to augment cognitive processes, but not all movements equally aid reasoning. Interactive technologies, like dynamic geometry systems (DGS), potentially amplify the link between movement and geometric representation, thereby deepening students' understanding of geometric properties. This study…

Candace Walkington; Mitchell J. Nathan; Min Wang; Kelsey Schenck – Grantee Submission, 2022
Theories of grounded and embodied cognition offer a range of accounts of how reasoning and body-based processes are related to each other. To advance theories of grounded and embodied cognition, we explore the "cognitive relevance" of particular body states to associated math concepts. We test competing models of action-cognition…

Ferdiani, Rosita Dwi; Manuharawati; Khabibah, Siti – European Journal of Educational Research, 2022
This study aimed to describe the creative thinking process of students with active learning styles in proposing and solving problems on geometry material. The research instruments were Honey and Mumford's Learning Style Questionnaire (LSQ), problem-solving and submission test sheets, and interview guidelines. The LSQ questionnaire was distributed…

Yeung, Wing-Leung; Ng, Oi-Lam – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
In this paper, we introduce a technology-enhanced pedagogical sequence for supporting lower secondary school students' sense-making of the concept of volume in a non-procedural and non-formula-driven way. Specifically, we illustrate a novel approach of using dynamic geometric environment (DGE) to introduce the meaning of volume and then deriving…

Hyeseong Lee; Seung H. Kim; Hae Min Yu – International Journal on E-Learning, 2024
Despite the benefits of teaching computational thinking (CT) and applying coding tools in schools, many teachers feel unprepared to use these technologies. Hence, we introduced CT concepts and coding tools to pre-service teachers (n=36; 17 in online class and 19 in in-person class), equipping them with digital competencies through activities with…

Kocabas, Sezai; Zhu, Yi; Liang, Yiheng; Bofferding, Laura – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
Block building activities help develop students' spatial reasoning, but few studies focus on the development of block building skills beyond preschool. We worked with four kindergarten, four first grade, and four second grade students to learn more about their Lego block building. We compared students' accuracy, building strategies, and spatial…

Seah, Rebecca; Horne, Marj – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2022
Building from the evidence-based learning progression in geometric reasoning from the RMFII project, this paper presents data from students' solutions to three problems in geometry and measurement situations to identify key components needed to nurture reasoning. To show emerging analytical reasoning students must coordinate multiple pieces of…

Ibili, Emin; Çat, Mevlüt; Resnyansky, Dmitry; Sahin, Sami; Billinghurst, Mark – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2020
The aim of this research was to examine the effect of Augmented Reality (AR) supported geometry teaching on students' 3D thinking skills. This research consisted of 3 steps: (1) developing a 3D thinking ability scale, (ii) design and development of an AR Geometry Tutorial System (ARGTS) and (iii) implementation and assessment of geometry teaching…

Andika, Fajar; Pramudya, Ikrar; Subanti, Sri – International Online Journal of Education and Teaching, 2020
Geometry subject that prosecute students to comprehend abstracts things is one of the causes of students' difficulties in mathematics learning. This study aims to determine the effect of Problem Posing and Problem Solving learning models with the Scientific Approach to students' adaptive reasoning on plane figure materials. It was conducted at the…

Stockero, Shari L.; Freeburn, Ben; Van Zoest, Laura R.; Peterson, Blake E.; Leatham, Keith R. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2018
We investigated teachers' responses to a common set of varied-potential instances of student mathematical thinking to better understand how a teacher can shape meaningful mathematical discourse. Teacher responses were coded using a scheme that both disentangles and coordinates the teacher move, who it is directed to, and the degree to which…

Ng, Oi-Lam; Shi, Lian; Ting, Fridolin – International Journal of STEM Education, 2020
Background: This paper compares the effects of two classroom-based technology-enhanced teaching interventions, conducted in two schools in sixth (age 11-12) grade. In one school, the intervention involves the use of a class set of 3D Printing Pens, and in another school the use of dynamic geometry environments, for inquiry-based learning of the…

Arikan, Elif Esra – Journal of Education and Learning, 2017
The aim of this study is to examine the mathematical creativity of individuals who think they have creative thinking skills. Forty-four teachers who work in private schools participated in this study and they have their pedagogical formation training from a public university in order to be a public teacher. Also participants have at least one year…

Sung, Woonhee; Black, John B. – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2021
This study examined what factors might have a positive impact on students' learning outcomes in mathematical understanding and computational thinking skills. Specifically, whether the proposed instructional design combining computational perspectives and an embodied approach in mathematics learning improves (a) mathematics learning, (b)…
