A Reexamination of Ontario’s Science Curriculum: Toward a More Inclusive Multicultural Science Education?Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education - Tập 14 - Trang 269-283 - 2014
Donatille Mujawamariya, Filsan Hujaleh, Ashley Lima-Kerckhoff
The rapid diversification of communities in Ontario has necessitated the provincial government to reevaluate public school curriculums and policies to make schools more inclusive and reflective of its diverse population. This article critically analyzes the content of the latest revised science curricula for Grades 1 to 10 and assesses the degree to which multiculturalism, including antiracism, pr...... hiện toàn bộ
Les fonctions dans un environnement numérique d’apprentissage: étude des apprentissages des éèves sur deux ansCanadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education - Tập 12 - Trang 233-258 - 2012
Tran Kiem Minh
Les environnements numériques d’apprentissage, particulièrement ceux qui offrent des capacités de représentations multiples, sont complexes dans leur fonctionnement et dans leurs rapports aux mathématiques. C’est pour cela que les chercheurs sont maintenant sensibles à la nécessité d’un cadre didactique et ergonomique rendant compte des potentialités de ces environnements. La recherche présentée i...... hiện toàn bộ
How Dragging Changes Students’ Awareness: Developing Meanings for Eigenvector and EigenvalueCanadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education - Tập 14 Số 3 - Trang 223-237 - 2014
Gol Tabaghi, Shiva
The complementary use of the theories of instrumental genesis and shifts of attention enabled me to obtain insights into students’ understandings of the concepts of eigenvector and eigenvalue. My analysis suggests that the use of different dragging modalities can provide evidence of shifts in structure of a student’s attention and consequently can reveal processes involved in her understanding of ...... hiện toàn bộ
Une comparaison de l’enseignement de la géométrie dans le secondaire en France et en ItalieCanadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education - Tập 5 - Trang 377-399 - 2005
Valentina Celi
What objectives can be attributed to geometry instruction currently? Why is it appropriate and/or necessary to teach geometry? In 1995, the International Commission on Mathematics Instruction began a discussion about educational perspectives in the 21st century in order to answer these questions.* The research presented in this article is intended to be a contribution to a discussion initiated wel...... hiện toàn bộ

For over 50 years, the forest school approach to nature learning has gathered momentum in the UK and across parts of Europe including Scandinavia (Knight, 2016). In other contexts such as Canada, New Zealand and Australia, nature-based early childhood education and care settings, influenced by European forest school approaches, have begun to gain popularity. Opportunities for STEM education occur ...... hiện toàn bộ
Prospective Mathematics Teachers’ Professional Noticing of Students’ Reasoning about Mean and VariabilityCanadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education - Tập 20 - Trang 423-440 - 2020
Dongjo Shin
This study examined prospective secondary mathematics teachers’ professional noticing of students’ reasoning about mean and variability as described in a current statistics curriculum in the USA. Six prospective mathematics teachers were asked to analyse students’ written solutions to statistics problems, constructed at the two levels described in the statistics curriculum. Findings indicated that...... hiện toàn bộ

This article describes the outcome of a collaborative project between the Hong Kong Institute of Education and four secondary schools that aims to promote the development of scientific investigation skills. The project team designed scientific investigation tasks collaboratively with the teachers and provided school-based support when the tasks were implemented. A total of six teachers and 575 stu...... hiện toàn bộ
Mathematical Morality Tales: Mathematics Education in Canadian NewspapersCanadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education - - 2019
Yasmine Abtahi, Richard Barwell
Media reporting about mathematics education includes descriptions of different aspects of mathematics teaching, learning, curriculum and policies. As with any media reporting, such descriptions are not neutral. They reflect on and portray specific discourses and agendas about mathematics education, with quotations or experiences of different stakeholders such as parents, students and teachers.
