Vuorenpää, Vikke; Viro, Elina; Kaarakka, Terhi; Mannila, Lauri – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
Integration is seen as a main factor for students to stay in university and eventually graduate. In conventional lecture-based teaching, students might avoid asking for academic help from teachers, which weakens the student-teacher relationship and distances students from the faculty. To decrease distance and ease integration, more student-centred…

Tossavainen, Timo; Suomalainen, Hannele; Mäkäläinen, Tomi – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2017
We examine what kind of concept definitions of area a group of Finnish primary and lower secondary student teachers (N = 82) use, and how the quality of the definitions is associated with the participants' success in seven exercises involving area. We are especially interested in how the understanding of the two-dimensionality of area appears in…

Lappalainen, Jouni; Rosqvist, Juho – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2015
This paper explores the ways students perceive the transfer of learned knowledge to new situations -- often a surprisingly difficult prospect. The novel aspect compared to the traditional transfer studies is that the learning phase is not a part of the experiment itself. The intention was only to activate acquired knowledge relevant to the…

Tossavainen, Timo; Haukkanen, Pentti; Pesonen, Martti – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2013
In this paper, we investigate which aspects are overriding in the concept images of monotonicity of Finnish tertiary mathematics students, i.e., on which aspects of monotonicity they base their argument in different types of exercises related to that concept. Further, we examine the relationship between the quality of principal aspects and the…
