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,…

Action-Process-Object-Schema (APOS) theory and the triad of schema development are used as the framework in this study to investigate students' understanding of the concept of "circle." In this report, results are presented from the data analysis of responses to questions in semi-structured interviews of 15 students enrolled in a college…

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…

The current research trend of metacognitive regulation has shifted from an individual to a social context. One such social context is collaborative problem-solving. Interaction between group members is an essential factor in completing collaborative problems. Metacognitive regulation is divided into four forms based on the interaction in…

The aim of this study is to characterize ways of reasoning and arguing that first year university mathematics students exhibit in problem-solving activities from a course that emphasizes the importance of formulating conjectures and the search for different ways to support or validate them. The use of a Dynamic Geometry System in the…

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…

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…

This study aims to address the teaching of integrals in multivariable calculus concerning the role taken by geometry, specifically, geometrical content dealing with boundaries in integrals that appear as curves and surfaces in R[superscript 2] and R[superscript 3]. Adopting the framework of the Anthropological Theory of the Didactic, we approached…

Considering Gen Z's learning needs, primarily focusing on bachelor IT students, a STEAM-based methodology was developed and tested for teaching and learning the principal properties of the cardioid curve. The four-component methodology is based on visuality and combines frontal teaching techniques with educational robotics, dynamic geometry…

In this research, we investigated whether the use of GeoGebra Augmented Reality (AR) can foster students in conceptualising a mathematical object by manipulating its different semiotic representations. We designed and implemented, with thirty university mathematics students, a teaching sequence on paraboloids using GeoGebra AR supported by…

Despite the increasing amount of research on students' quantitative reasoning at the secondary level, research on students' quantitative reasoning at the undergraduate level is scarce. The present study used task-based interviews to examine 16 high-performing undergraduate calculus students' quantitative reasoning in the context of solving three…

During the Fall 2021 semester, the author taught a university-level geometry course into which they incorporated texts and discussions on mathematics and mathematical epistemology from outside of the "Western" tradition typically centered in college math curricula. Analysis of student survey responses and students' reflections on their…

This study investigates the associations of spontaneous "dynamic gesture" and "transformational speech" with the production of "deductive proofs" in participants' reasoning about geometric conjectures (N=77). Although statistical analysis showed no significant association, the result suggests that purposefully…

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Adelphi University engaged in a year-long program revision of its mathematics major, which was initiated by a longitudinal study and the publication of the 2015 Curriculum Guide by the MAA's Committee on Undergraduate Programs in Mathematics. This paper stands as a short story, so to speak, of…

To prevent difficulties in learning mathematics, effective and innovative teaching methodologies should be used. The present study presents the results of a relational and comparative study between the application of the open number-based algorithm (ABN) and the closed number-based algorithm (CNB) method. The research was of a descriptive…
