An Exploratory Study of Mathematics Disciplinary Practices in Advanced Mathematics

Creator:: Glover, Erin D.
Abstract:: Policy and research have increased attention in K12 mathematics education on core mathematical practices such as argumentation, justification, and proof, that are central to students learning and doing mathematics. One reason for this increased focus is the empirical evidence that engaging students in mathematical practices provide more equitable opportunities for...

The Role of Formulas in Students' Solution Strategies in regard to Combinatorics

Creator:: Gordon, Cheyenne M.
Abstract:: There are many reasons toward why students withhold such negative mindsets toward the subject of mathematics. This thesis builds upon previously conducted research concerning affect and confidence in mathematical problem solving, confidence that students exhibit about themselves, and combinatorial thinking and activity.

Students' generalisation of function from single- to multivariable settings

Creator:: Dorko, Allison J.
Abstract:: Generalisation is a key component of mathematical activity. Mathematicians often seek general formulae or wonder if a rule that holds in a particular dimension also holds in dimension n. However, generalisation is not limited to professional mathematicians; kindergarteners engage in generalisation when they seek patterns and algebra is sometimes described...
