Abstract
The growth mindset is the belief that a person's intellect and abilities can be developed through effort. This mindset suggests that intelligence is not fixed, but adaptive. With the continued growth of the literature on growth mindset in mathematics, there is a need to investigate current trends from a bibliometric perspective. This study...
(Objective)
This work aims to adapt and validate a scale that measures the level of self-regulation in mathematical problem-solving contexts of teachers in initial training in primary education.
(Methodology)
For sample selection, non-probabilistic convenience or incidental sampling was used. A total of 269 first year primary education undergradua...
El profesorado, a través de su actividad mediadora entre el alumnado y el conocimiento matemático, se convierte en una pieza clave para la consecución de una educación matemática de calidad. Sus acciones vienen condicionadas por factores afectivos y cognitivos que conviene atender desde que inicia su formación. Así, este estudio dirige su mirada ha...
Self-regulation in mathematical problem solving is of particular importance in the initial training of Primary Education teachers as it can contribute to improving their own competence in mathematics and at the same time enable them to teach effectively and in a personalized way. With this idea in mind, this study identifies self-regulation profile...
Affective and cognitive processes may be jointly researched to better understand mathematics learning, paying special interest to emotions related to knowledge acquisition. However, it remains necessary to explore these processes in studies linked to the education of pre-service mathematics teachers. This study aims to characterize epistemic emotio...
La discalculia es un trastorno del aprendizaje que no resulta habitualmente sencillo de identificar ni en el entorno familiar ni en el escolar, produciéndose un diagnóstico tardío o inexistente. Conscientes de la necesidad de establecer diagnósticos de la discalculia desde que esta se manifiesta en edades tempranas,
este estudio aporta una herramie...
The affective domain is a key element to consider in the teaching and learning of mathematics. Most of the research on the mathematical affective profile of students has been carried out with students who do not exhibit specific learning difficulties, while considerably less attention has been given to students with dyscalculia. The main aim of thi...
The purpose of the current study was to contribute to a better
understanding of Zambian prospective mathematics secondary
teachers’ pedagogical content knowledge of mathematics (MPCK)
as part of a larger project aimed at characterising their
subject matter and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) related
to the function concept. K-means Cluster anal...
Dyscalculia is a math learning disability that significantly interferes with students' academic performance and math-related aspects of their daily lives. Early diagnosis and the design of intervention programs adapted to the needs of each case are essential. In this sense, multiple technological resources are created to address both issues. Still,...
Research on the relationships between the main constructs underlying inquiry-based learning is rarely reported in mathematics education research. Considering this as a complex problem which is worth to be investigated, the present study aims to provide some empirical evidences that might serve as an insight to support further investigations on the...
Wireless electroencephalography (EEG) devices allow for recordings in contexts outside the laboratory. However, many details must be considered for their use. In this research, using a case study with a group of third-grade primary school students, we aimed to show some of the potentialities and limitations of research with these devices in educati...
La formación inicial del profesorado es un proceso determinante en el propósito de avanzar hacia escuelas plenamente inclusivas a través, en particular, de procesos de capacitación que faciliten la supresión de barreras para el aprendizaje, incluidas las que tienen su origen en el propio docente. En este sentido, este estudio dirige su mirada hacia...
La Consejería de Educación de la Junta de Castilla y León lanzó en 2018 su Plan para la Mejora de las Matemáticas (PMM), combinando de forma notable tres ingredientes que, cada día bajo un consenso más amplio, es imprescindible considerar en todo proyecto educativo de calidad, a saber: innovación, investigación y evaluación. En esta ponencia se pre...
Introducción.
La educación desempeña un papel fundamental como motor de cambio y transformación social, así como en el desarrollo de una ciudadanía crítica y comprometida. En este marco, la lucha contra problemas globales como el cambio climático requiere de herramientas transversales, sistémicas y de carácter afectivo-cognitivo.
Objetivo.
El pres...
here is a broad consensus when recognizing the important role that education plays as an engine of change and social transformation, as well as in the development of a critical and committed citizenry. In this framework, the fight against global problems such as climate change requires efficient transversal, systemic, and affective-cognitive tools....
Attitudes are central to the affective domain in mathematics. However, we still have a long way to go to reach a clear consensus on the characterization of such construct and its operationalization, as there are a wide variety of intertwined approaches depending on the theoretical framework that accompanies each of them. In this article, we explore...
La comprensión de los números y de las operaciones aritméticas, junto con su uso flexible en situaciones de resolución de problemas, constituyen un aspecto esencial del constructo Sentido Numérico, en torno al cual se ha desarrollado una creciente actividad investigadora en Educación Matemática desde la década de los 90. El presente trabajo centra...
Supporting the creation of a critical citizen, with deeply rooted community values of solidarity and active compromise to the spread and development of those values, is making means believing in a better world in which no one can nor should feel excluded. Nevertheless, this is met with differing opinions. This study approaches attitudes towards Glo...
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly influenced educational systems and to prevent the large scale of infections, schools were closed and teachers had to transition to distance teaching through virtual classrooms. This study aims to evaluate teacher perspectives on using virtual classrooms in distance teaching. Data were collected using an onlin...
La discalculia es un trastorno del aprendizaje que afecta a la correcta adquisición de las habilidades aritméticas y que puede llegar a influir significativamente tanto en la vida cotidiana del alumnado como en su trayectoria académica. Siendo un trastorno con una prevalencia estimada entre el 2,27% y el 6,4%, ha recibido mucha menos atención que o...
Dyscalculia is a learning disorder that affects the correct acquisition of arithmetic skills and significantly influences both the daily life of students and their academic success. Being a disorder with an estimated prevalence between 2.27% and 6.4%, it has received much less attention than others, such as dyslexia or attention-deficit/hyperactivi...
The presence of social media platforms in secondary students’ daily life is growing on but it may appear difficult to know which ones are more convenient for academia, particularly among secondary school pupils who are commonly substantial internet-based life clients. This study seeks to understand Zambian pupils’ profiles of social media usage, in...

Las TIC se contemplan actualmente en las titulaciones de maestro desde una doble perspectiva: como un contenido o aspecto de la realidad con la que los alumnos deben tomar contacto, aprovechando al máximo sus prestaciones, y como un recurso que puede acercarlos a otros contenidos. En esta comunicación contemplaremos un tercer frente: las TIC como u...
A new method for solving numerically backward parabolic problems is proposed. As usual for this kind of ill posed problems, it is assumed that an {a priori} bound for the solution is available. The algorithm consists of two basic steps. First, a standard forward integration is performed, in order to approximate the solution at suitable future time...
The least squares approach for the recovery of a holomorphic mapping from given perturbed nodal values is considered. The
mapping is assumed to be a priori bounded by a known quantity, so that the recovery problem is well-posed. The present analysis shows that for nodes that are
the zeroes of Jacobi polynomials a quasioptimal algorithm results with...
