Konyalioglu, Alper Cihan; Aksu, Zeki; Senel, Esma Ozge – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2012
Visualization is mostly despised although it complements and--sometimes--guides the analytical process. This study mainly investigates teachers' preferences concerning the use of the visualization method and determines the extent to which they encourage their students to make use of it within the problem-solving process. This study was conducted…
