This paper presents a novel figure for teaching multiple geometric proofs of the Pythagorean theorem. Because it consists only of congruent given right triangles, the figure can be constructed using a template of the given right triangle or, if available, a computer program. Within the figure, called a Pythagorean multi-proof square, there are…

Tamera Musiowsky-Borneman and C. Y. Arnold have developed a way to bring a minimalist mindset to the classroom and shed the burden of too many initiatives, strategies, and "things" in general. Their Triple P process helps teachers declutter in three steps: identify something's "purpose," "prioritize" what is…

Power in multilevel models remains an area of interest to both methodologists and substantive researchers. In two-level designs, the total sample is a function of both the number of level-2 (e.g., schools) clusters and the average number of level-1 (e.g., classrooms) units per cluster. Traditional multilevel power calculations rely on either the…

This theoretical paper examines views about the role of language and mathematical discourse in learning mathematics. Current research is still addressing what constitutes a mathematical discourse. As new conceptions of the purpose of language use in mathematics are explored, and associated ontological and epistemic positions are revealed, one…

By integrating CEC into their teacher education classrooms, chapter…

The focus of this dissertation is on students' thinking regarding the function concept in the context of abstract algebra, focusing on the properties of well- and everywhere-definedness. This dissertation follows a three-paper format, where each paper has a different yet related focus. In the first paper, I analyze (non-)examples found in…

The articles in this work address histories of how visual art educators have come to exist within scholarship on teacher evaluation.
