Research has shown that teachers' perceptions and beliefs about good teaching are closely related to their teaching style and, consequently, to effective classroom learning and student achievement. Although much research has been conducted on good mathematics teaching, its sub-discipline, geometry, is often neglected. Therefore, this longitudinal…

This study aims to describe and examine the effect of GeoGebra-assisted discovery learning on students' mathematical reasoning achievement in 3D geometry lessons. A Quasi-experimental research design with a post-test-only control group was used to conduct this study. This study involved 108 twelfth-grade students from a public senior high school…

The integration of learning models and software is a trend in mathematics courses. However, no existing learning model for geometry courses involves the students in the making of a tool or media project. The researchers noticed the potential of the project-based learning (PjBL) model and GeoGebra in analytical geometry courses. This study revealed…

We introduce the concept of the "sequence of the ratios of convex quadrilaterals," identify some properties of these sequences and use them to provide new characterizations for some classic quadrilateral families. The research involves aspects of geometry, arithmetic and mathematical analysis, which converge to produce the results.

Collaborative problem solving (CPS) is widely recognized as a prominent 21st-century skill to be mastered. Until recently, research on CPS has often focused on problem solution by the individual; the interest in investigating how the theorized problem-solving constructs function as broader social units, such as pairs or small groups, is relatively…

The study of mathematics is often described as the science of patterns (Resnik 1981), and the cognitive tasks involving the search, recognition, and assessment of patterns are fundamental to learning mathematics. Patterning activities lead students to a better understanding of dependent relations among representations, create a transparent way for…

We introduce, motivate, and exemplify a proposed theoretical construct guiding the design and facilitation of collaborative geometry activities, conceptually generative perspectival complementarity (CGPC). Participants in CGPC activities learn content by negotiating their respective perceptions of situated features they manipulate to accomplish…

In the present study, the effects of using dynamic geometry software in active learning framework on students' problem posing skills and their views about problem posing were examined. The participants consisted of 16 eighth-grade students. Data were collected by problem posing tests, open-ended questions, student diaries, and dynamic geometry…

Do young children understand the complex mathematics in the petals of a daisy, the Fibonacci sequence in the spiral of a pinecone, the fractal geometry in the leaves of a fern, or the "golden ratio" in the seed pattern of a sunflower? Probably not, but they certainly can observe and recognize the patterns and compare them to similar…

The objectives of these quasi-experimental methods were to improve academic performance in geometry using a mastery learning approach through GeoGebra for mathematics teacher students and to investigate students' satisfaction with using a mastery learning approach through GeoGebra in geometry. The participants were divided into two groups,…

This paper reports our efforts to develop a measure of pre-service elementary teachers' geometry knowledge for teaching 2-dimensional (2D) shapes and to evaluate the psychometric properties of this measure. Specifically, the GKT-2D scale was designed to assess pre-service elementary teachers' geometry content knowledge, knowledge of geometry and…

Teaching geometry in the early years emerges along with maths activities but might be neglected sometimes. This research aims to identify preschool teachers' opinions on geometry teaching via using semi-structured interviews, and collected data analysed using content analysis. Seven female and three male preschool teachers were participated in the…

Textbooks have always played an important role in mathematics education. Textbook tasks are widely used by students, so it is important to examine their requirements in order to identify the opportunities students have to learn mathematics. Publishers now produce both printed and digital versions of textbooks. While the requirements of the tasks…

This paper aims to describe the design and inspection of the quality of a digital learning platform to diagnose mathematical ability levels of seventh-grade students with regard to the topics of Measurement and Geometry. A total of 517 seventh-grade students from 23 schools in four regions, namely north, northeast, central, and south of Thailand…

This paper explains teaching modern geometry for schools using software called Surfer and converting the algebraic surfaces into Batik motifs as one example of teaching mathematics with the integration of STEAM. Typical algebraic surfaces known in schools were, for example, cylinders and spheres which are identified as traditional geometry in this…
