Framed by activity theory we ask “Why?” questions to understand the main goals of posing problems; “What?” questions are directed at the characteristics of the PP process and PP products; and “How?” questions are aimed at identifying the tools used by the designers to fit the conditions in which the problems are implemented. We find that the three designers’ problem-posing activities are complimentary and suggest that the cooperative problem posing process is essential for posing problems that integrate different perspectives and thus allow more goals to be attained.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47481,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematical Behavior","volume":"75 ","pages":"Article 101158"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141290633","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}

Past studies show that people are more efficient with continuous visualizations than with discretized ones, but the specific reasons are unclear. Presumably, continuous visualizations highlight magnitudes more directly, while discretized ones encourage less efficient strategies such as counting. In two experiments, adults and children compared the magnitudes of continuous and discretized tape diagrams of fractions. In both experiments, participants answered more accurately, faster, and with fewer eye saccades when the visualizations were continuous rather than discretized. Sequences of saccades indicated that participants used counting strategies less often with continuous than discretized diagrams. The results suggest that adults and children are more efficient with continuous than discretized visualizations because they use more efficient, magnitude-based strategies with continuous visualizations.
