Voitle, Frauke; Heuckmann, Benedikt; Kampa, Nele; Kremer, Kerstin – International Journal of Science Education, 2022

However, empirical studies rarely address this distinction, and instruments separately assessing these EBs are not available.…

Bikner-Ahsbahs, Angelika; Sabena, Cristina; Arzarello, Ferdinando; Krause, Christina – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2014
This paper refers to the concept of semiotic and theoretic control describing resources to conduct decisions in epistemic processes. We consider an argumentation process from a complex problem-solving activity involving different conceptual frames related to parabolas. Using a micro-analytical interpretative lens, we will show that, in order to…
