Cox, Dana C.; Lo, Jane-Jane – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2019
As a component of a course on geometry for preservice elementary teachers (PSTs), we derive area formulas for a variety of polygons including triangles, quadrilaterals, and both regular and irregular shapes whose areas can be measured empirically using decomposition. Decomposing a circle to justify why its area can be measured using the standard…

Harper, Suzanne R.; Cox, Dana C. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2012
This study questions the extent to which a course in Mathematical Problem Solving with Technology was developing TPACK in mathematics preservice teachers. In order to measure the development of TPACK, both quantitative and qualitative data were collected. Preliminary findings are promising. Preservice teachers developed a vision of technology use…
