Mathematical creativity is an important topic both in research and in practice. Especially in research and practice on secondary school level, it is gaining increasing significance with a growing body of tasks, practices, and empirical studies being developed and conducted. At the same time, the growing field of research on mathematical creativity...

Research on creativity, invention, and innovation originates in different scientific disciplines and different decades. This diversity in theoretical backgrounds and definitions can still be seen in recent research, especially in mathematics education (see Joklitschke et al., 2021, for a review on notions of creativity in mathematics education rese...

Interest in creativity in mathematics education research is increasing, and the field of research is growing. Yet, research on creativity and the notions (we use this wording to accumulate understandings, beliefs, and ideas about the construct) of creativity that are addressed in empirical research are diverse and difficult to organize in an overvi...

Mathematisches Problemlösen erfreut sich bis heute eines großen Interesses innerhalb der fachdidaktischen Forschung. Die Relevanz für das Lernen von Mathematik spiegelt sich in der Präsenz dieser Tätigkeit in den Kernlehrplänen und Bildungsstandards des Faches Mathematik wider. Um über Forschungserkenntnisse zu dieser zentralen Tätigkeit in Austaus...

In this article, we take an in-depth look at research on the intersection of problem posing and creativity in order to present its current state of research in a systematic review. A full search in top journals from mathematics education and the Web of Science revealed only 15 articles from different genres, of which 11 were included in the analysi...

In this paper, we present an overview of notions of mathematical creativity in contemporary empirical educational research. We conducted a review using two databases and coding articles with respect to definitions and components of creativity that were used and/or referred to. By doing so, we found six different notions of creativity as reflected i...

The paper at hand presents a systematic analysis of theoretical backgrounds in articles about mathematical creativity over the period of 2007-2016. Due to the multifaceted concept of creativity, various keywords were used for the literature study. Those keywords were identified in a search in relevant literature and ten years of PME proceedings. Th...

In mathematics education, researchers often talk about mathematical creativity. However, we see a lack of research on the question of whether such an ability exists for mathematics in general; or whether mathematical creativity should rather be viewed subdomain-specifically; for instance, in the contexts of geometry, algebra, or arithmetic separate...

Das (mathematische) Problemlösen ist und bleibt ein hochaktuelles Thema der Bildungswissenschaften, der Psychologie und – nicht zuletzt – der Fachdidaktik (Mathematik). Es ist allgemeiner Konsens, dass das Problemlösen zu den Schlüsselkompetenzen gehört, die von Lernenden in allen Jahrgangsstufen der Schulausbildung und im Studium erworben werden s...

Wer knackt die verschiedenen Zahlenrätsel, bei denen Zahlen - über das Zehnersystem hinaus - anders dargestellt sind? Bei der Erkundung des Zweier- oder Hexadezimalsystems wird das Zahlen- und Stellenwertverständnis vertieft, beim "Fingerzahlen" und der "Addition wie in China" geht es vor allem um Strukturerkennung und Analogiebildung. Vertiefende...

For the Design Research project presented, a learning environment for mathematically talented and interested 7 th-grade students was investigated. The results show that the subject matter of graph theory offers both opportunities and means for students to develop their abilities. The data analysis showed likewise how the tasks might be modified in...

Das Poster stellt im Rahmen der Bildung für nachhaltige Entwicklung verschiedene Unterstützungsangebote zum Thema ”Gesunde Enährung/Gesundes Essen” vor. Hierzu werden drei Akteure und deren Konzepte zur gesunden Ernähung vorgestellt.
