With the ever-evolving implementation of technology in the teaching and learning of geometry, the task of designing and/or finding suitable questions or problems that can facilitate and promote mathematical reasoning and accurately assess students' understanding of the subject matter can be a challenge. It is the aim of this article to share the…

This study explores university students' understanding of the relationships between formal definitions of the limit of a function and the limit of a sequence in terms of the accumulation point in a technology-enhanced collaborative learning environment. The participants of this study are 17 prospective mathematics teachers. The data are collected…

The applicability of digital technologies is increasing boundlessly and so are the opportunities of the end-users, with ample opportunities to embed these technologies in the teaching and learning process. Nonetheless, classroom adoption of technologies, particularly in mathematics remains on the lower end of innovation in teaching and learning.…

This paper explains teaching modern geometry for schools using software called Surfer and converting the algebraic surfaces into Batik motifs as one example of teaching mathematics with the integration of STEAM. Typical algebraic surfaces known in schools were, for example, cylinders and spheres which are identified as traditional geometry in this…

The onset of COVID-19, along with its various mutations, has played havoc with many activities, not the least of which is education. For the majority of 2020 and 2021 in Australia, much of the teaching in both schools and universities was undertaken online, leading to a re-think of how learning and teaching might look in the future. This paper…

In 2015, all Australian education ministers agreed that from 1 July 2016 the Government would initiate the Literacy and Numeracy Test for Initial Teacher Education (LANTITE), designed to verify that all prospective teachers could demonstrate the literacy and numeracy skills required in their profession. The LANTITE quickly became another hurdle…

This study aims to evaluate the university lecturers' teaching content preferences in different teaching environments at the undergraduate level of mathematics. The content that lecturers use in teaching the concept of integral is evaluated through a comparison of face-to-face and virtual classroom settings. With comparative case study being used…

Hardly any other topic is currently as much the focus of social and scientific interest as the use of digital media in educational contexts. In this project, we examine the user perspective. We will explore which findings can be generated from freely accessible user reviews within the app stores and on YouTube regarding users' personal…

In 2014 NCTM advocated for productive struggle by expressing the need for teachers to allow their students the time necessary to grapple with their mathematical "uncertainties." We posit pre-service teachers need opportunities to productively struggle when learning and applying their mathematical understanding in order to understand how…

The purpose of this study was to examine prospective teachers ' uses of diagrams and approaches to congruence while solving proof tasks. Eight prospective high school mathematics teachers were given three proof tasks to solve at the beginning and end of a mathematics education course. The course used the history of mathematics as the context for…

Using robot programming activities for learning in the classroom is one way to drive interest and engagement in the STEM field among students, especially girls. And this is afield that is particularly characterized by an underrepresentation of women. Accordingly, many countries are increasingly integrating activities related to computer science…

We explore the various Mathematica functions for performing Gaussian elimination, specifically when the linear system contains input parameters. On the one hand, we want the solution, perhaps heuristically found, to be in terms of the input parameters, and as general as possible. On the other hand, we must adhere to all necessary conditions and…

The teaching practice of noticing students' thinking includes both attention to students' mathematical strategies and interpretation of their mathematical understanding. This practice is further complicated when students are engaged with mathematical action technologies while learning mathematics content because, in these contexts, teachers must…

The aim of this research is to advance in the teaching-learning process of representing quadratic functions, both with pencil and paper and with a technological tool. For this purpose, a didactic experience is presented. Firstly, it is explained in the traditional way how to graph a quadratic function; secondly, students are introduced to the…

Information and communication technologies (JCTs) may have a significant impact on education in general and mathematics education in particular, with greater access to open learning sources, widespread interaction through online and social networking, and the availability of a variety of teaching and learning tools. However, these benefits of…
