Edelen, Daniel; Bush, Sarah B.; Schmidt, Ashley; Fulton, Tandrea; Kebreab, Lybrya; Rutledge, Treshonda – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2022
In this paper, we aim to untangle positioning theory (Davies & HarrĂ©, 1990) and its implications for the field of mathematics education research, considering both existing use and potential use. Specific theoretical assumptions of positions or positionings in the context of learning mathematics are outlined. In this paper, a classroom-based…

Students can simultaneously use ability appraisals from parents and teachers, while also drawing information from peer, dimensional, and temporal comparisons. Although we find these five sources are…
