Helbert Rondon-Berrios – Advances in Physiology Education, 2024
This article introduces an innovative teaching and learning tool called "Edelman Gamblegrams" that aims to help medical learners better understand disorders related to water/plasma tonicity homeostasis, i.e., hyponatremia and hypernatremia. Gamblegrams, named after physician James L. Gamble, are bar diagrams displaying the relative…

Singh, I.; Khun, K. Khun; Kaur, B.; Kaur, H.; Singh, T. – Physics Education, 2021
This paper describes a way to simulate and visualise 3D representations of the resultant electric field vector propagation for plane, circular and elliptically polarised waves. These polarisation states are obtained by the superposition of two coherent linearly polarised waves oscillating in two mutually perpendicular directions. The required data…

Wang, Xuefei; Wang, Zhuo – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Electrochemistry is a branch of chemistry concerned with the interrelation of electrical and chemical effects, in which mathematical equations are employed to describe the fundamental principles of electrode processes and measurement methods. In this work, we present a graphical simulation that provides visual observations of dynamical behavior…

Arthur M. Halpern; Yingbin Ge; Eric D. Glendening – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
FINDIF is a Windows application that numerically solves the one-dimensional (1D) Schrödinger equation and displays the eigenstates, eigenvalues, and probability density of the system. FINDIF accepts both nonperiodic and periodic 1D potential energy functions as input and uses the finite difference method to evaluate the energy of the quantum…

Teia, Luis – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2019
This article discusses the advanced characteristics of a mathematical and geometrical system explained and published in the course of several preceding journal articles (Teia, 2015, 2016, 2018a and 2018b). The reading of the preceding articles is encouraged for a clearer understanding of the discussion that follows.

Mahmood, Munir; Vale, Colleen – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2020
The visual method in this paper solves linear inequalities in one variable by considering them initially as two competing linear expressions, each of which is then expressed as a linear equation. When the solution of these two linear equations exist, it is viewed as a highlighted area or a line. These linear equations convey the intended visual…

Wilkie, Karina J. – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2021
Teachers whose mathematical meanings support understanding across different contexts are likely to convey them in productive ways for coherent student learning. This exploratory study sought to elicit 67 secondary mathematics pre-service teachers' (PSTs) meanings for quadratics with growing pattern creation and multiple translation tasks. A…

Mauntel, Matthew; Levine, Benjamin; Plaxco, David; Zandieh, Michelle – Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education, 2021
We present results of a grounded analysis of individual interviews in which students play Vector Unknown -- a digital game designed to introduce visualizing vectors, scaling vectors, vector addition, and vector equations, attending to the geometric and algebraic representations of vectors. The game was designed to be used at the beginning of a…

Alves, Francisco Regis Vieira; Machado Vieira, Renata Passos – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2020
The work deals with the study of the roots of the characteristic polynomial derived from the Leonardo sequence, using the Newton fractal to perform a root search. Thus, Google Colab is used as a computational tool to facilitate this process. Initially, we conducted a study of the Leonardo sequence, addressing it fundamental recurrence,…

Alves, Francisco Regis Vieira; Vieira, Renata Passos Machado; Catarino, Paula Maria Machado Cruz – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2020
In this work, recurrent and linear sequences are studied, exploring the teaching of these numbers with the aid of a computational resource, known as Google Colab. Initially, a brief historical exploration inherent to these sequences is carried out, as well as the construction of the characteristic equation of each one. Thus, their respective roots…

Kostadinov, Boyan; Thiel, Johann; Singh, Satyanand – PRIMUS, 2019
The goal of this paper is to promote the use of R and Python as high-level, free, open-source programming environments that can be used as a computational and visualization tool for teaching differential equations. Both R and Python also allow for creating reproducible dynamic documents using Markdown, which combines live code, plain text, and…

Caglayan, Günhan – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2019
The purpose of this research study was to understand how linear algebra students in a university in the United States make sense of subspaces of vector spaces in a series of in-depth qualitative interviews in a technology-assisted learning environment. Fourteen mathematics majors came up with a diversity of innovative and creative ways in which…

Zakirova, Venera G.; Zelenina, Natalia A.; Smirnova, Ludmila M.; Kalugina, Olga A. – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2019
The introduction of new standards of mathematical education requires to stop understanding of the learning process as the transfer of ready-made knowledge and experience. Educational activity built on the principle of self-construction of knowledge by schoolchildren is highly demanded in new environment. Tasks with parameters have high learning,…

Moon, Kyunghee – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2019
This study investigated preservice secondary mathematics teachers' difficulties with and understanding of graphs of two-variable inequalities with the lens of the APOS theory. The analysis showed that most teachers understood inequality graphs as actions, at best, and used informal rules to construct graphs. They also had difficulty justifying…
