Sinclair, Nathalie; Bartolini Bussi, Maria G.; de Villiers, Michael; Jones, Keith; Kortenkamp, Ulrich; Leung, Allen; Owens, Kay – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2016
This survey on the theme of Geometry Education (including new technologies) focuses chiefly on the time span since 2008. Based on our review of the research literature published during this time span (in refereed journal articles, conference proceedings and edited books), we have jointly identified seven major threads of contributions that span…

Fujita, Taro; Jones, Keith; Miyazaki, Mikio – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2018
Much remains under-researched in how learners make use of domain-specific feedback. In this paper, we report on how learners' can be supported to overcome logical circularity during their proof construction processes, and how feedback supports the processes. We present an analysis of three selected episodes from five learners who were using a…

Miyazaki, Mikio; Fujita, Taro; Jones, Keith – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2015
Recent research on the scaffolding of instruction has widened the use of the term to include forms of support for learners provided by, amongst other things, artefacts and computer-based learning environments. This paper tackles the important and under-researched issue of how mathematics lessons in junior high schools can be designed to scaffold…
