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,…

This working group will engage PMENA members to better understanding the nature of mathematical modeling in the early grades while considering the student perspective and recognizing the importance of teachers knowing their students and the contexts that are meaningful to their students. We will investigate how PK-6 teachers demonstrate the…

Brancaccio, Anna; Esposito, Massimo; Marchisio, Marina; Sacchet, Matteo; Pardini, Claudio – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2019
The professional development of teachers is a task recognized by the European parliament and pursued by many institutions, both national and international ones. The support to teachers in STEM disciplines was one of the aims of the Erasmus+ SMART (Science and Mathematics Advanced Research for good Teaching) project, born in a European context,…

International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2018
This paper discusses a proposal for exploration and verification of numerical and algebraic behavior correspondingly to Generalized Fibonacci model. Thus, it develops a special attention to the class of Fibonacci quaternions and Fibonacci octonions and with this assumption, the work indicates an investigative and epistemological route, with…

Cantoral, Ricardo; Moreno-Durazo, Angélica; Caballero-Pérez, Mario – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2018
This work deals with the role of social practice in the construction of models related to advanced mathematical knowledge; specifically, with the way an individual uses the notion of "variation" in different phenomena while predictive thinking is the underlying principle in the mathematical process. The mathematical modelling of…

Ärlebäck, Jonas B.; Doerr, Helen M. – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2018
In this article, we examine how a sequence of modeling activities supported the development of students' interpretations and reasoning about phenomena with negative average rates of change in different physical phenomena. Research has shown that creating and interpreting models of changing physical phenomena is difficult, even for university level…

Skovsmose, Ole – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2016
In this article I consider what critical mathematics education could mean for different groups of students. Much discussion and research has addressed students at social risk. My point, however, is that critical mathematics education concerns other groups as well: for example, students in comfortable positions, blind students, elderly students,…

Delgadillo, Elizabeth Montoya; Vivier, Laurent – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2016
Mathematical working space (MWS) is a model that is used in research in mathematics education, particularly in the field of geometry. Some MWS elements are independent of the field while other elements must be adapted to the field in question. In this paper, we develop the MWS model for the field of analysis with an identification of paradigms. We…

Dhakal, Durga Prasad; Upreti, Isha; Niroula, Narayan Prasad – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2020
Mathematics evidenced un/manifested in/active, un/changeable, im/pure and primordial nature; therefore, it is illimitable to define as finite. It exists in the engineering of this universe. Philosophy of Mathematics studies abstract entities such as assumption and implication. Mathematics educators regard it as deductive tool and relate to solving…

Cortez, L. A. B.; de Oliveira, E. Capelas – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2017
Considering the important role played by mathematical derivatives in the study of physical-chemical processes, this paper discusses the different possibilities and formulations of this concept and its application. In particular, in Chemical Thermodynamics, we study exact differentials associated with the so-called state functions and inexact…

O'Leary, Erin Sanders; Sayson, Hannah Whang; Shapiro, Casey; Garfinkel, Alan; Conley, William J.; Levis-Fitzgerald, Marc; Eagan, M. Kevin; Van Valkenburgh, Blaire – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2021
Calculus is typically one of the first college courses encountered by science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) majors. Calculus often presents major challenges affecting STEM student persistence, particularly for students from groups historically underrepresented in STEM. For life sciences majors, calculus courses may not offer…

Gök, Mustafa; Demir, Nihal – Education Quarterly Reviews, 2021
The opinions of mathematics teachers about using mathematical modeling (MM) in daily life problems and their use of MM in solving a daily life problem were examined within the scope of the graduate-level MM course in this study. The research was designed as a case study. Participants are five mathematics teachers selected by the purposive sampling…

Wiemken, Rachel; Padmi, Russasmita Sri; Matney, Gabriel – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2021
Nations of the world share concerns on many critical issues in such a way that communication and collaboration are important skills for the 21st century (Trilling and Fadel 2009). Hence, connecting global issues to the mathematics classroom is important. Through such learning experiences, students can appreciate that mathematics has a special…

Merck, Madeline F.; Gallagher, Melissa A.; Habib, Emad; Tarboton, David – International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, 2021
Engineering students need to spend time engaging in mathematical modeling tasks to reinforce their learning of mathematics through its application to authentic problems and real world design situations. Technological tools and resources can support this kind of learning engagement. We produced an online module that develops students' mathematical…

Sawatzki, Carly; Brown, Jill; Zmood, Simone – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2022
The proposed revisions to the "Australian Curriculum: Mathematics" highlight the importance of learning to mathematise, problem-solve and reason in real world contexts, including financial contexts. Through the Economics + Maths = Financial Capability research project, the authors have been imagining fresh ideas for connecting the…
