Rethinking Digital Technology versus Paper and Pencil in 3D Geometry

UIDB/04647/2020 UIDP/04647/2020 UIDB/01661/2020 UIDP/01661/2020 PTDC/CED-EDG/32422/2017; Recognising the relevance of learning Geometry, and in particular 3D Geometry, this study aims to discuss the contributions that digital technology and paper and pencil approaches can bring to students’ learning. We seek, therefore, to identify the differences between the two approaches, and specifically: What factors are r...

A representação gráfica na aprendizagem de funções por alunos do 10.ºano de esc...

The work with different representations promotes a deeper understanding of topics of functions. Based on this assumption, this study aims to analyze the contribution of the graphical representation to the learning of the inverse function and of the parity of a function by 10th grade students. The study adopts a qualitative and interpretative methodology to understand the students’ actions while solving the prop...

The notion of function held by basic education pre-service teachers

CIEd - Research Centre on Education, project UID/CED/01661/2019, Institute of Education, University of Minho, through national funds of FCT/MCTES-PT.; The current curricular guidelines for mathematics education in Portugal emphasize the relevance of working with different representations of functions to promote understanding. Given this relevance, we seek understanding about the notion of function held by 37 ba...
