A challenge in mathematics education research is to coordinate different analyses to develop a more comprehensive account of teaching and learning. I contribute to these efforts by expanding the constructs in Cobb and Yackel's (1996) interpretive framework that allow for coordinating social and individual perspectives. This expansion involves four…

Czocher, Jennifer – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2011
Lack of satisfaction with the quality of the mathematical knowledge of non-mathematics majors has led to the design of new curricular materials. In this study, a mixed methods explanatory design was used to compare the performances of two groups of engineering majors enrolled in two courses on differential equations and investigate their written…

Kwon, Oh Nam – 2002
The undergraduate curriculum in differential equations has undergone important changes in favor of the visual and numerical aspects of the course primarily because of recent technological advances. Yet, research findings that have analyzed students' thinking and understanding in a reformed setting are still lacking. This paper discusses an ongoing…

Toutkoushian, Robert K. – 1994
This paper examines issues involved in selecting a strategy that could be carried out by institutions to achieve salary equity between male and female faculty. It compares potential strategies based on equity of salary adjustments, political constraints, cost to the institution, and whether the plan removes inequities. Steps in determining…

Ellis, Wade, Jr. – 1984
The mathematics curriculum in the first 2 years of college is a tool created to assist in solving problems. The current mathematics curriculum has changed little; the same topics, tied to the engineering and science curriculum, are taught as they were being taught in 1945. The problems that students need to solve have changed however. Both the…

Mamona-Downs, Joanna – 2002
This paper studies the modes of thought that occur during the act of solving problems in mathematics. It examines the two main instantiations of mathematical knowledge, the conceptual and the structural, and their role in the act. It claims that awareness of mathematical structure is the lever that educes mathematical knowledge existing in the…
