Hortensia Soto; Leonardo Abbrescia; Adam Castillo; Laura Colmenarejo; Anthony Sanchez; Rosaura Uscanga – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2024
In this case study we explored how a mathematician's teaching of the Cauchy-Riemann (CR) equations actualized the virtual aspects of the equations. Using videotaped classroom data, we found that in a three-day period, this mathematician used embodiment to animate and bind formal aspects of the CR equations (including conformality), metaphors,…

Daniel Gbormittah; Daniel Paa Korsah; Japhet Kwasi Osiakwan; George Adom – Discover Education, 2024
Despite growing recognition of the value of using technology in mathematics instruction and learning, preservice teachers consistently performed abysmally in college geometry. This study therefore examined the attitude of preservice teachers towards the integration of technology in the teaching and learning of College Geometry. Quantitative…

Brian P. Katz – PRIMUS, 2024
This paper shares a flexible activity for engaging people in mathematical inquiry that does not depend on fixed prior knowledge built on a famous property of Möbius strips. The discussion includes the implementation of the activity and its extensions, facilitator moves and common participant thinking, suggestions for adaptation and integration…

Charity Cayton; Kayla Chandler – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
This article describes an instructional sequence used with inservice secondary mathematics teachers as part of a graduate course. The instructional sequence focused on designing tasks using Interactive Geometry Software (IGS). This study answers a call for replication studies to investigate the use of an established instructional sequence. Results…

Jonathan Troup; Hortensia Soto; Aubrey Kemp – International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, 2024
This study investigates the embodied, symbolic, and formal reasoning of two fourth-year university students while exploring geometric reasoning about the Cauchy-Riemann equations with the aid of "Geometer's Sketchpad (GSP)." These students participated in a teaching activity designed to encourage shifts between embodied, symbolic, and…

Aleksandar Milenkovic; Ðurdica Takaci; Radoslav Božic – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2024
In this paper, we describe the influence of the implementation of methodology for teaching and learning multiple integrals based on the constructivist approach and the interconnectedness of multiple representations (with an emphasis on dynamic representations) for different mathematical objects using GeoGebra's applications Graphing Calculator and…
