Integrating the findings from a qualitative study of 20 first-year undergraduates' learning difficulties within tutorial-based pedagogy at Oxford, tutors'responses to and interpretations these were studied in semi-structured interviews. Here tutors' conceptualisations students' with regard enculturation into formal mathematical reasoning their standard teaching practices employed order cope are discussed. The conventions school writing journal/textbook/lecture confusion about what knowledge...
Abstract Research often focuses on disaffection in the mathematics classroom as evident disruptive behaviour, absenteeism or special needs: thus, it ignores a group of students whose is expressed tacit, non‐disruptive manner, namely disengagement and invisibility. Ignoring this large implies that math ematical potential these learners may remain defunct. This article reports one‐year study quiet conducted three Year 9 classrooms Norfolk. Through extensive observation interviewing seventy...
AbstractIn this paper we outline the main tenets of commognitive approach and exemplify its application in studies that investigate learning teaching mathematics at university level. Following an overview such applications, focus on three explore fundamental discursive shifts often occurring early stages studying Calculus. These concern lecturers' students' communicative practices, routines constructing mathematical objects ways resolving conflicts. We then propose constructs as...
The study we report here examines parts of what Chevallard calls the institutional dimension students' learning experience a relatively under-researched, yet crucial, concept in Analysis, infinite series. In particular, examine how is introduced to students texts and teaching practice. To this purpose, employ Duval's Theory Registers Semiotic Representation towards analysis 22 used Canada UK post-compulsory courses. We also draw on interviews with in-service teachers university lecturers...
Research on university mathematics education (UME) is a constantly growing domain. New questions emerge, resulting inter alia from: evolving needs of students and teachers; changing contents co...
Abstract Catering for the mathematical needs of disabled learners equitably and productively requires anti-ableist preparation professional development teachers. In CAPTeaM (Challenging Ableist Perspectives on Teaching Mathematics), we design tasks that emulate inclusion-related challenges from mathematics classroom, engage teachers with these in workshop settings. this paper, focus evidence one type task which participants small groups solving a problem while at least them is temporarily...
Self-assembly at surfaces has proven to be very efficient in creating ordered, atomically controlled organic nanostructures. On-surface synthesis recently emerged as a promising strategy create stable structures bound by strong and irreversible covalent bonds. Here we present on-surface reaction between pyrazino phenanthroquinoxaline-tetracarbonitrile (PPCN) molecules copper atoms on Au(111) substrate. The is monitored ultrahigh vacuum conditions scanning tunneling microscopy X-ray...
We explore the transition from school to university through a commognitive (Sfard 2008) analysis of twenty-two students' examination scripts end year first year, year-long module on Sets, Numbers, Proofs and Probability in UK mathematics department. Our relies preliminary tasks lecturers' (also exam setters') assessment practices, focuses manifestations unresolved conflict engagement with tasks. Here we note four such concerning identification consistent work with: appropriate numerical...
