The focus of this research is how Sicilian state university mathematics professors faced the challenge teaching via distance education during first wave COVID-19 pandemic. Since pandemic entered our lives suddenly, found themselves having to lecture using an e-learning platform that they had never used before, and for which could not receive training due health emergency. In addition emotional aspects related particular situation pandemic, there are two consider when at a distance. fact...
We present the continuation of a study on an international MOOC for training mathematics teachers who were introduced to methodology outdoor through MathCityMap. Previously, we presented immediate learning and professional development outcomes achieved by participated in MOOC. Here, using theoretical framework Meta-Didactical Transposition performing mixed-type analysis, investigate long-term impact these whom administered questionnaire one year after end conclude that teachers, practising...
The COVID-19-induced distance education was perceived as highly challenging by teachers and students. A cross-national comparison of five European countries identified several challenges occurred during the learning period. On this basis, article aims to develop a theoretical framework design requirements for online tools. As one example in mathematics education, ASYMPTOTE system is introduced. It will be freely available May 2022. aimed at adaptive synchronous delivery taking mobile...
Accessing mathematical formulae within digital documents is challenging for blind people. In particular, document formats designed printing, such as PDF, structure math content visual access only. While accessibility features exist to present PDF non-visually, support limited providing replacement text that can be read by a screen reader or displayed on braille bar. However, the operation of inserting left authors, who rarely provide content. Furthermore, at best, description are provided....
In this paper, we examine the impact of a massive open online course (MOOC) in context outdoor mathematics on participating teachers’ professional development. We firstly introduce theoretical background mathematics, focusing math trails with digital tool MathCityMap and development to be accomplished using MOOCs. By taking into account MOOC “Task Design for Math Trails”, 93 finalists, analyze learning progress 19 selected case studies from different nations levels by their answers pre-...
We introduce Ricerca Operativa Applicazioni Reali (ROAR; in English, Real Applications of Operations Research), a three-year project for higher secondary schools. Its main aim is to improve students’ interest, motivation, and skills related Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics disciplines by integrating mathematics computer science through operations research. ROAR offers examples problems closely connected with everyday life or the industrial reality, balancing mathematical...
Operations Research (OR) is a branch of applied mathematics that deals with optimization problems arising from different real contexts. The solving process its based on the construction and resolution mathematical models, showing possible connections between world. Nevertheless, OR not typically included in most curricula higher secondary schools (i.e. Grades 9–12), but it usually presented mainly at university level. To show how could be significant for these school students' education,...
In this paper, we continue describing the project and experimentation of Ricerca Operativa Applicazioni Reali (ROAR; in English, Real Applications Operations Research), a three-year for higher secondary schools, introduced. ROAR is composed three teaching units, addressed to Grades 10, 11, 12, respectively, having main aim improve students’ interest, motivation, skills related Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics disciplines by integrating mathematics computer science through...
Abstract This article delves into the significance of bodily experiences in context outdoor STEAM activities. It features a case study involving three tenth-grade students who engage tasks – which are part an trail using MathCityMap app. The research focuses on students’ emerging strategies when dealing with two modelling by integrating cycle phases perspective embodiment that encompasses learning as navigating mathematical places. By intertwining these theoretical stances, analysis uncovers...
In this paper, we finish describing the project and experimentation of Ricerca Operativa Applicazioni Reali (ROAR; in English, Real Applications Operations Research), a three-year for higher secondary schools. ROAR is composed three teaching units addressed to grades 10, 11, 12, respectively. To improve students’ interest, motivation, skills related science, technology, engineering, mathematics disciplines, integrates computer science through operations research. Its implementation started...
In this paper, a teaching path on non-Euclidean geometry focused the Poincaré-disk model, and its connection with art is shown. We consider as artistic contents Escher’s hyperbolic some paradoxes Magritte’s work. The mathematical aspects are illustrated thanks to Dynamic Geometry System (GeoGebra) implemented laboratory methodology in Vygotskijan perspective. use of artefact (the DGS) crucial build concepts starting by objects. was experimented inmates high security prison University...
