51- Students' Reasoning about Angle Measure in Dynamic Geometry Instructional Games

Tuesday, April 8, 2014: 11:30 AM-12:00 PM
Room 220/221/222 ( Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
Michael T. Battista
Co-speakers:
Candace Joswick and Kathryn Battista


Description of Presentation:

Currently, NCTM and the CCSSM focus heavily on mathematical reasoning and sense making. In this study, we analyze the reasoning elementary and middle-school students use as they determine angle measure in several dynamic geometry instructional games. We also investigate the links that students construct between spatial and numerical reasoning.
