Analyzing the Influence of Student Problem Solving Approaches on Learning Through Teaching in Mathematics Education (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Woods, P., Copur-Gencturk, Y., & Atabas, S. (2022, June). Analyzing the Influence of Student Problem Solving Approaches on Learning Through Teaching in Mathematics Education. Presented at 16th International Conference of the Learnng Sciences (ICLS) 2022, Hiroshima, Japan and online

While previous research has examined what students learn as they agentically solve mathematics problems, less is known about what teachers learn through this process. We use this paper to address this oversight by analyzing interviews, lesson plans,...

Tensions and synergies in arts‐integrated data literacy instruction: Reflections on four classroom implementations (2022)
Journal Article
Matuk, C., DesPortes, K., Amato, A., Vacca, R., Silander, M., Woods, P. J., & Tes, M. (2022). Tensions and synergies in arts‐integrated data literacy instruction: Reflections on four classroom implementations. British Journal of Educational Technology, 53(5), 1159-1178. https://doi.org/10.1111/bjet.13257

Data-art inquiry is an arts-integrated approach to data literacy learning that reflects the multidisciplinary nature of data literacy not often taught in school contexts. By layering critical reflection over conventional data inquiry processes, and b...
