Strohmaier, Anselm Robert; Schiepe-Tiska, Anja; Müller, Fabian; Reiss, Kristina M. – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2017
Self-concept is an important noncognitive predictor of learning success and academic achievement, but mechanisms behind these effects are mostly unknown (Marsh, 2006). We analyzed the influence of mathematical self-concept on university students' eye movements in reading mathematical PISA items in a mathematical and a problem-solving context. In a…

Weng, Ting-Sheng; Yang, Der-Ching – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2017
Most students thinking mathematics is a difficult subject. This study aims to enhance students' motivation and efficiency in learning mathematics. This study developed 3D animation on the binomial theorem with historical stories of mathematics as the plot. It also examined the effect of animation on students' learning willingness and…

Chin, Erh-Tsung – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2003
In this paper the notion of "procept" (in the sense of Gray & Tall, 1994) is extended to advanced mathematics by considering mathematical proof as "formal procept". The statement of a theorem as a symbol may theoretically evoke the proof deduction as a process that may contain sequential procedures and require the synthesis…
