Task design with DGEs: the case of students’ counterexamples

Task design with DGEs: the case of students’ counterexamples
Task design with DGEs: the case of students’ counterexamples
Given that geometry is a topic in which learners can work with counterexamples, and that task design with dynamic geometry environments (DGEs) is an understudied aspect of research, our research is focusing on elaborating a set of theory-informed task design principles involving DGEs and using these to study students working with geometric diagrams. The analysis that we present in this short paper illustrates how our theory-informed design principles are further supported with the conceptual framework on virtual manipulatives in terms of the surface features of representations, the pedagogical support, and students’ perceptions and interpretations.

Abstract

Given that geometry is a topic in which learners can work with counterexamples, and that task design with dynamic geometry environments (DGEs) is an understudied aspect of research, our research is focusing on elaborating a set of theory-informed task design principles involving DGEs and using these to study students working with geometric diagrams. The analysis that we present in this short paper illustrates how our theory-informed design principles are further supported with the conceptual framework on virtual manipulatives in terms of the surface features of representations, the pedagogical support, and students’ perceptions and interpretations.
