Barana, Alice; Marchisio, Marina; Sacchet, Matteo – Education Sciences, 2021
The COVID-19 pandemic has evidenced a need for tools and methodologies to support students' autonomous learning and the formative assessment practices in distance education contexts, especially for students from challenging backgrounds. This paper proposes a conceptualization of Interactive Feedback (IF) for Mathematics, which is a step-by-step…

Gambini, Alessandro – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2021
We present the result of an eight-year didactic experiment in two primary school classes involving comparative geometry activities: a comparison between Euclidean plane geometry and spherical geometry that took place over five years. Following the didactic experiment, three years on from the end of the experiment, final questionnaires were…

Santagata, Rossella; Stigler, James W. – Mathematical Thinking and Learning, 2000
Investigates 8th grade mathematics teaching in Italy as videotaped and analyzed following the same procedures in the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). Compares results with German, Japanese, and U.S. lessons videotaped in TIMSS. Indicates that Italian lessons are relatively homogenous among themselves yet distinct from…

Santagata, Rossella – Linguistics and Education: An International Research Journal, 2004
This study investigates the role of cultural beliefs and practices in teaching. The focus is the process of socialization by which students learn to deal with mistakes. Analyzed are teacher-student interactions surrounding mistakes videotaped in 30 Italian and 30 U.S. eighth-grade mathematics lessons. These are complemented by interviews with…

Garuti, Rossella; Dapueto, Carlo; Boero, Paolo – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2003
The report describes a mathematical modelling activity of a natural phenomenon (transmission of hereditary characters in a codominance case) using the concept of model as a theoretical instrument. The chosen tool enables us to show how the construction of a link between reality and a model is related to the evolution of the graphical…
