Jinhua Mathias; Christopher Saville; Steve Leech – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2024
Mathematics is a common component of many science and social science degrees, but frequently not considered a prerequisite for their study. This can lead to some students studying mathematics components at undergraduate level with little or no previous mathematical learning and varying levels of motivation, or desire, to study mathematics. This…

Rocha, Helena – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2020
Using technology to get a graphical representation of functions requires the choice of a suitable viewing window. The literature suggests teachers' knowledge as being central in this process, but does not tell us much about how the teachers should manage this. This study aims to improve understanding about the teachers' choices related to the…

Hatisaru, Vesife – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2023
This study explores the types of mathematical connections established in the classroom in the teaching of functions. An extended model for mathematical connections (different representations (DR), procedural (PC), if-then (I-T), part-whole connections (PWC), feature/property (F/P), analogies, and instruction-oriented connections (IOC)) is used as…

Rasila, Antti; Malinen, Jarmo; Tiitu, Hannu – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2015
We consider two complementary aspects of mathematical skills, i.e. "procedural fluency" and "conceptual understanding," from a point of view that is related to modern e-learning environments and computer-based assessment. Pedagogical background of teaching mathematics is discussed, and it is proposed that the traditional book…

Elçin Emre-Akdogan – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2023
Students' use of problem posing is an assessment tool for evaluating mathematical creativity, and it plays a substantial role in creative tasks. Integrating problem-posing tasks into a curriculum is beneficial for teaching and learning mathematics. The Photo-Math Project is an example of problem posing in terms of generating new problems. This…

Rocha, Helena – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2016
This study focuses on teacher's Knowledge for Teaching Mathematics with Technology (KTMT), paying a special attention to teacher's representational fluency. It intends to characterize how the teacher uses and integrates the different representations provided by the graphing calculator on the process of teaching and learning functions at the high…

Kempen, Leander; Liebendörfer, Michael – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2021
We investigated university students' study of mathematics in the digital setting context of the COVID-19 pandemic. We gathered data from a survey of 89 students enrolled in a 'Linear Algebra 1' course including affective variables, learning strategies, social relatedness and resources considered useful. The results indicate students' high effort…

Lowrie, Tom; Jorgensen, Robyn – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2016
This investigation explored pre-service teachers' mathematics content knowledge (MCK) and beliefs associated with mathematics education practices. An Exploratory Factor Analysis, conducted on a beliefs and attitudes questionnaire, produced three common attitude factors associated with (1) inquiry-based teaching; (2) how mathematics knowledge is…

Hyland, Diarmaid; O'Shea, Ann – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2021
The aim of this research is to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 closures from the perspective of students studying mathematics at university level in Ireland. A survey was designed and administered to students who were enrolled in at least one mathematics module in an Irish university at the time of the closures. The survey comprised three…

Mullen, Claire; Pettigrew, Jim; Cronin, Anthony; Rylands, Leanne; Shearman, Donald – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2021
From March 2020, the Mathematics Support Centre at University College Dublin, Ireland, and the Mathematics Education Support Hub at Western Sydney University, Australia, moved wholly online and have largely remained so to the point of writing (August 2021). The dramatic and swift changes brought on by COVID-19, in particular to fully online modes…

Farrell, Fionnuala; Carr, Michael – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2019
Over the last number of years we have gradually been introducing a project based learning approach to the teaching of engineering mathematics in Dublin Institute of Technology. Several projects are now in existence for the teaching of both second-order differential equations and first order differential equations. We intend to incrementally extend…

Pampaka, Maria; Williams, Julian – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2016
This article builds on previous results of the Transmaths studies concerning transmissionist teaching practices--and especially adds the significance of students' perceptions of these practices--in their association with students' declining dispositions for studying mathematics. It addresses a gap in this work, and the literature in general,…
