Didis Kabar, Makbule Gözde; Erbas, Ayhan Kürsat – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
This study investigated pre-service secondary mathematics teachers' (PSMTs') anticipation and identification of students' thinking as they engaged in examining and analyzing student work on four modelling problems. The study comprised four two-week-long cycles. The data were collected through individual reflection papers and written group reports…

Matayoshi, Jeffrey; Uzun, Hasan; Cosyn, Eric – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2022
Knowledge space theory (KST) is a mathematical framework for modeling and assessing student knowledge. While KST has successfully served as the foundation of several learning systems, recent advancements in machine learning provide an opportunity to improve on purely KST-based approaches to assessing student knowledge. As such, in this work we…

Ding, Meixia; Chen, Wei; Hassler, Ryan Scott – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2019
Linear quantity models such as pre-tapes, tape diagrams, and number line diagrams have drawn increasing attention in mathematics education around the world. However, we still know relatively little about how teachers actually use these models in the classroom. This study explores how exemplary US and Chinese elementary teachers use linear quantity…

Carcoba Falomir, Gloria A. – Intervention in School and Clinic, 2019
Algebra is considered an important high school course because it is recognized as the gateway to higher mathematics, college opportunities, and well-paying jobs. In the United States, most secondary schools require students to be proficient in algebra to be able to graduate from high school. One major component of algebra is word problem solving,…
