In this paper we describe values in mathematics education in the Netherlands, in a context where both government and teachers are merely focused on test results. At the same time, newly proposed core goals emphasise mathematics education’s socializing function. These new core goals also focus on mathematical …

Many students persistently misinterpret histograms. This calls for closer inspection of students’ strategies when interpreting histograms and case-value plots (which look similar but are diferent). Using students’ gaze data, we ask: How and how well do upper secondary pre-university school students estimate …

Citizens regularly search the Web to make informed decisions on daily life questions, like online purchases, but how they reason with the results is unknown. This reasoning involves engaging with data in ways that require statistical literacy, which is crucial for navigating contemporary data. However, …

This study explores how a pre-service mathematics teacher interprets eye-tracking data to diagnose students’ reasoning when working with histograms. Using a qualitative case study design, the participant engaged with an eye-tracking vignette, featuring a student’s gaze plot, answer, and cued recall explanation. …

Interpreting statistical graphs is a crucial component of the 21st-century skillset known as statistical literacy. Despite their importance for statistical literacy, research reports that systematic errors often occur in the interpretation. As no consolidated overview of these errors existed to date, …

The ‘Dancing with Mathematics’ workshop includes a variety of hands-on educational activities that combine these two seemingly incompatible disciplines through motion-capture technologies. A heterogeneous group of researchers with diverse academic backgrounds and expertise, that collaborate in the HORIZON-WIDERA …

We conducted a descriptive study among first-year engineering students at the Anton de Kom University of Suriname. We analyzed students’ errors regarding necessary prior knowledge in a calculus A exam. We found that the stage of the solution in which prior knowledge is required impacts the importance …

This Justification Logfile documents the research-based strategies and decisions for the annual STEAM and space festival "HELLO SPACE | Bulgaria Calling!" in Bulgaria. Utilizing Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) principles, this report supports strategic initiatives aimed at improving the festival’s visibility …

Computational Thinking (CT), een onderdeel van digitale geletterdheid, is een vaardigheid die aandacht vraagt in het onderwijs. Bij docenten in opleiding (dio’s) is nog weinig kennis en expertise over CT, terwijl er mogelijkheden zijn om dit aspect van digitale geletterdheid te integreren in alle schoolvakken …
