In this study, we devised research design that provides pre-service teachers to effectively experience embodied geometric thinking with the goal that it will impact teachers' instruction to students in their classrooms. Using a motion-capture video game and design tool, we offered opportunities for pre-service teachers to experience of performing…

Walkington, Candace; Nathan, Mitchell J.; Woods, Dawn M. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2017
Research in mathematics education has established that gestures--spontaneous movements of the hand that accompany speech--are important for learning. In the present study, we examine how students use gestures to communicate with each other while proving geometric conjectures, arguing that this communication represents an example of extended…

Making connections during math instruction is a recommended practice, but may increase the difficulty of the lesson. We used an avatar video instructor to qualitatively examine the role of linking multiple representations for 24 middle school students learning algebra. Students were taught how to solve polynomial multiplication problems, such as…

Ottmar, Erin R.; Walkington, Candace; Abrahamson, Dor; Nathan, Mitchell J.; Harrison, Avery; Smith, Carmen – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2019
Embodied cognition is growing in theoretical importance and as driving a set of design principles for curriculum activities and technology innovations for mathematics education. The central aim of the EMIC (Embodied Mathematical Imagination and Cognition) Working Group is to connect with inspired colleagues in this growing community of discourse…

Clinton, Virginia; Alibali, Martha W.; Nathan, Mitchell J. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2013
This study examined the effectiveness of two methods of increasing student learning from posterior probability lessons: diagrams and questioning while reading. Undergraduate students (N = 245) read a lesson in one of three diagram conditions and one of three questioning-while-reading conditions (embedded questions, elaboration interrogations, and…
