Schukajlow, Stanislaw; Krug, André – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2014
We conducted an experimental study with 192 ninth graders in which we investigated a connection between performance and students' interest and enjoyment using task-unspecific and task-specific questionnaires. Students were randomly assigned to experimental group 1 or to experimental group 2. In group 1, they were asked about their affective…

Achmetli, Kay; Schukajlow, Stanislaw; Krug, André – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2014
In the project MultiMa (Multiple solutions for mathematics teaching oriented toward students' self-regulation), we investigated the effects of prompting students to use multiple solution methods while solving real-world problems on their learning. In this quasi-experimental study, we compared three treatment conditions. In one condition, students…

Brand, Susanne – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2014
The paper deals with the question of the practicability and the effectiveness of different approaches to foster students' mathematical modelling competencies. Within the modelling project ERMO (Acquirement of modelling competencies) a holistic and an atomistic approach of mathematical modelling were compared in order to find out which approach is…

Dohrmann, Christian; Kuzle, Ana – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2014
Results of the last thirty years in mathematics education have shown the importance of an operational concept development. One of the geometrical concepts that has been researched for years already, however, not with the particular focus on its systematic teaching in school mathematics, is the concept of angle. In this paper we focus on children's…

Heinze, Aiso – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2005
The handling of mistakes in the mathematics classroom is an area in which only little research is done so far. In mathematics education there are, in fact, several investigations about students' mistakes from a diagnostic perspective, but hardly any studies on the question how teachers react in concrete mathematics lessons. In this article…
