Problem solving is central to integrated STEM and to the individual disciplines as evidenced by the practice standards of each discipline (e.g., Standards for Mathematical Practice, Science and Engineering Practices, and Technology and Engineering Practices). We situate integrated STEM as problem-solving practices by synthesizing practice standards from each discipline into four integrated STEM practices: (1) use critical and creative thinking to define and solve problems, (2) collaborate and use appropriate tools to engage in iterative problem solving, (3) communicate solutions to problems based on evidence and data, and (4) recognize and use structures in real-world systems. The integrated STEM practices are critical components of high-quality STEM learning experiences that allow students to apply discipline specific content to authentic problems. When each and every student is provided access and opportunity to high-quality integrated STEM learning experiences, they understand how mathematics is used in the real world and have more favorable views of mathematics. Mathematics education research could use the integrated STEM practices to rigorously investigate calls for greater access, equity, and opportunities in teaching and learning mathematics in integrated STEM contexts.","PeriodicalId":36817,"journal":{"name":"Investigations in Mathematics Learning","volume":"14 1","pages":"1 - 13"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41804205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite their research support, digital games are not widely used in mathematics classrooms. One main contributor to this lack of adoption is the paucity of extant research on the extent to which mathematics teachers are using digital games, how teachers are using digital games in the mathematics classroom, and what barriers hinder their use of digital games. To begin answering these questions, the Digital Game Usage in the Mathematics Classroom Survey was developed. Pilot data were collected to evaluate the reliability and validity of the survey. The results of the pilot study are discussed along with recommendations for future research and survey instrument usage.","PeriodicalId":36817,"journal":{"name":"Investigations in Mathematics Learning","volume":"14 1","pages":"87 - 100"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49507432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Students’ written work across the tasks was analyzed to determine whether the instructional sequence supported them in improving their arguments and attending to key aspects of proof (justifications, generality, clarity, structure). Claim-level analysis for each of the key aspects revealed minor changes between students’ draft and revised arguments with results varying by task. That said, students attended to the key aspects of proof through the critiques they provided each other with most critiques, if appropriately addressed, having the potential to help improve the draft argument. Students’ reflections also showed this process helped them think about the clarity and level of detail in their arguments. Implications for this study include the benefits of providing proof tasks that offer fewer supports for students, alongside multi-faceted analysis of their written arguments, in terms of providing insights into students’ current understanding of proof.","PeriodicalId":36817,"journal":{"name":"Investigations in Mathematics Learning","volume":"14 1","pages":"101 - 116"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42812617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, we propose that a fourth element – the curriculum – along with teachers’ curricular reasoning also hold considerable influence on teachers’ decisions. Using data collected from middle grades teachers’ curricular decisions, we share the Instructional Pyramid model for Curricular Reasoning to organize the interactions among these four key classroom elements and to delineate aspects of curricular reasoning.

Virtual manipulatives (VM) and concrete manipulatives (CM) are effective approaches to teaching fractions, but previous research has not been able to reach a consensus on which manipulatives are the most effective. This quasi-experimental study employed a pre- and posttest design to investigate the differential effects of VM and CM in a fraction intervention on students’ fraction skills. In addition to fraction skills, students’ arithmetic fluency was measured. Fidelity of intervention, social validity, and time-efficiency of the manipulatives were also investigated. Fourth- and fifth-grade participants (N= 115) from Southern Finland were assigned to VM and CM intervention groups. The intervention was implemented during six 45-minute lessons over 2 weeks. Results revealed that the CM group outperformed the VM group in fraction skills, which suggests that CM should be favored in fraction interventions.","PeriodicalId":36817,"journal":{"name":"Investigations in Mathematics Learning","volume":"13 1","pages":"323 - 337"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43566096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, we present a critical methodological analysis of the challenges and benefits of using Toulmin’s argumentation model in mathematics education to assess the debriefing phase of lesson study. During debriefing sessions, teachers offer arguments about how to improve teaching that are grounded in observations of students’ learning. Toulmin’s model provides a means to analyze the structure of such arguments. Using an empirical example, we illustrate challenges of using the model, such as determining appropriate grain sizes for data and claims, evaluating qualifiers, recognizing multiple categories of backing, identifying implicit warrants, and deciding between the individual or the group as a unit of analysis. We also discuss benefits such as being able to systematically compare mathematics teachers’ pedagogical arguments against one another, assess attainment of debriefing session goals, and characterize group discursive dynamics. Despite the challenges of using the Toulmin model, we conclude that it provides a useful framework for systematic analysis of lesson study debriefing sessions. The present article can help researchers anticipate and address challenges of conducting Toulmin-based qualitative analyses of debriefing session discourse.","PeriodicalId":36817,"journal":{"name":"Investigations in Mathematics Learning","volume":"13 1","pages":"338 - 353"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46634623","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study explored the online delivery of the virtual-representational-abstract (VRA) instructional sequence, taught via explicit instruction, coupled with the system of least prompts (SLP) to three elementary students with mathematics difficulties. From this single case design study, researchers determined the VRA instructional sequence with the SLP was effective for three elementary students with mathematical difficulties in terms of accuracy in solving double-digit subtraction with regrouping problems. Further, the students were relatively independent in solving the problems. The results of this study hold implications for the online delivery of effective mathematical interventions to struggling elementary students.","PeriodicalId":36817,"journal":{"name":"Investigations in Mathematics Learning","volume":"13 1","pages":"197 - 213"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42981278","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
