Flores González, Macarena; Vandebrouck, Fabrice; Vivier, Laurent – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
Our work focuses on the transition from high school to university in the field of calculus. In France, recursive sequences are studied as one of the classical exercises in both institutions. Their studies use different theorems and notions, such as functions, convergence, monotonicity, induction, etc. The work expected at this transition requires…

Teófilo de Sousa, Renata; Alves, Francisco Régis Vieira; Ferreira de Azevedo, Italândia – LUMAT: International Journal on Math, Science and Technology Education, 2021
This work presents the result of the application of a didactic sequence designed to understand the concept of the Cavalieri's Principle, supported by the GeoGebra application in its version for mobile phones -- 3D Calculator. For this study, the Theory of Categories of Intuitive Reasoning, by Efraim Fischbein, was used as a conceptual basis. The…

The Effects of Concrete-Representational-Abstract Sequence of Instruction on Solving Equations Using Inverse Operations with High School Students with Mild Intellectual Disability
Direct linkDirect link
Cease-Cook, Jennifer Jo – ProQuest LLC, 2013
This study used a multiple probe across participants design to examine the effects of concrete-representational-abstract sequence of instruction on solving equations using inverse operations with high school students with mild intellectual disability. Results demonstrated a functional relation between the Abstract sequence of instruction and…

On Introducing a Set Perspective in the Learning of Limits of Real Sequences
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Mamona-Downs, Joanna – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2010
An account is made of the relationship between the convergence behaviour of a sequence and the accumulation points of the underlying set of the sequence. The aim is to provide students with opportunities to contrast two types of mathematical entities through their commonalities and differences in structure. The more set-oriented perspective that…
