Table 1.Cognitive and dispositional elements, from [7]. PTs will, therefore, mobilise both cognitive and dispositional elements when working on probability in the classroom. In this paper, we will focus on the cognitive elements, paying special attention to probability calculation, language, and con...
Based on Shannon’s communication theory, in the present paper, we provide the theoretical background to finding an objective measurement—the text-entropy—that can describe the quality of digital natural language documents handled with word processors. The text-entropy can be calculated from the fo...
(run4math), conducted three mathcamps, visited over 200 schools, supported more than 20 schools with calculators, textbooks and graph paper, provided hygiene lessons and sanitary towels to over 2,000 girls, and impacted more than 1 million learners. how they plan to use the funding: to ...
Our purpose in this paper is to discuss how the creation of videos with mathematical content may contribute to this process of rendering the classroom borderless, as well as how this activity can become a teaching and learning tool. We ground our discussion in social semiotics, a theory that ...
Technology integration into education is a significant development that has facilitated using digital resources in teaching mathematical culture (TMC). Des
Figure 1. Illustration of task and stimuli. (a) Example of one item of the Abbreviated Math Anxiety Scale. (b) Mathematical tasks. We measured participants’ math performance through two computerized tests (simple and complex calculation tasks) and two paper-and-pencil questionnaires (Mathematics ...
To bridge the gaps, this paper developed an integrated approach for hybrid thermosolar concentrating systems for EDC optimization, based on exact matrix mathematics, which can be used as a research tool for multicriteria economic management decisions. This approach solves the optimal EDC problem of ...
