Olsher, Shai; Lavie, Irit – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
Generalization is considered to be an essential part of mathematical reasoning and proving, and it has many definitions in mathematics education research. Despite its centrality, teachers often have difficulty identifying and responding to generalization in students' work. In this study, we focus on preservice teacher's (PTs) ability to describe…

Cetin, Ibrahim; Dev, Serife – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
This study investigated the methods that pre-service teachers employed while finding volume using integration and the reasons why they utilized these methods (problems); the accuracy of their solutions was also analyzed in this study. Case study design, a qualitative research method, was used for this study. 45 sophomore pre-service teachers…

May, Bruce Mathew – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
Effects of spaced, repeated retrieval practice and test-potentiated learning on mathematical knowledge and reasoning in an authentic educational setting are investigated in the study. Research participants were a cohort of second-year pre-service mathematics teachers. A revised taxonomy table was utilized to measure the knowledge and reasoning…

Avcu, Seher; Biber, Belma Türker – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
In this study, the conceptualizations used by prospective middle school mathematics teachers when defining, representing, and exemplifying the slope concept and relating it with other mathematical situations were examined. Participants' conceptualizations were identified by Nagle, C., Moore-Russo, D., Viglietti, J., & Martin, K. [(2013).…

Kaplan, Hatice Aydan; Gulkilik, Hilal; Emul, Nida – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
The goal of this paper was to investigate the role of formal constraints (e.g. definitions, theorems) in geometric reasoning. Four students participated in a task-based interview including 2D Euclidean geometric locus problems. Data were obtained from observations, interviews, and video recordings and analyzed by Toulmin's argumentation model. The…

Oxman, Victor; Stupel, Moshe – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
The present paper describes a dynamic investigation of polygons obtained by reflecting an arbitrary point located inside or outside a given polygon through the midpoints of its sides. The activity was based on hypothesizing on the shape of the reflection polygon that would be obtained, testing the hypotheses using dynamic software, and finding a…

Hong, Dae S.; Runnalls, Cristina – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
The purpose of this work was to explore how elementary pre-service' teachers (PSTs) responded to a volume task that asked for a coordination of changes in one dimension with changes in volume. We carried out both written pre-assessments and follow-up interviews with seventeen PSTs, focused on exploring volume content knowledge. Our findings…

Patkin, Dorit; Plaksin, Olga – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2019
In this study, we aim to explore the extent of mathematics pre-service teachers' ability to apply their procedural understanding combined with spatial perception for drawing conceptual conclusions related to angles in a pyramid. The participants are 16 pre-service high school mathematics teachers. They have studied solid geometry during one…

Horzum, Tugba; Ertekin, Erhan – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2018
The purpose of this study is to analyze what kind of conceptions prospective mathematics teachers (PMTs) have about the base concept (BC). One-hundred and thirty-nine PMTs participated in the study. In this qualitative research, data were obtained through open-ended questions, the semi-structured interviews and pictures of geometric figures drawn…

Segal, Ruti; Stupel, Moshe; Sigler, Avi; Jahangiril, Jay – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2018
In this paper we present the results of a study which was carried out in an inquiry-based teaching and learning environment with the use of 'what if not' methodology coupled with the integration of dynamic geometry software. The vast majority of the students reported that they perceived themselves as participants rather than spectators. Most of…

Ruiz-López, Natalia – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2018
This paper, which describes a study undertaken with pairs of future primary teachers using GeoGebra software to solve geometry problems, includes a brief literature review, the theoretical framework and methodology used. An analysis of the instrumental genesis process for a pair participating in the case study is also provided. This analysis…

Ertekin, E.; Solak, S.; Yazici, E. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2010
The aim of this study is to identify the effects of formalism in teaching on primary and secondary school mathematics teacher trainees' algebraic and geometric interpretations of the notions of linear dependency/independency. Quantitative research methods are drawn in order to determine differences in success levels between algebraic and geometric…

Leikin, Roza; Zazkis, Rina – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2010
In this article, we demonstrate that prospective teachers' content knowledge related to defining mathematical concepts is dependent on content area. We use the example of generation (a research tool we developed in a previous study) to investigate prospective teachers' knowledge. We asked prospective secondary mathematics teachers to provide…
