Fostering university freshmen’s mathematical argumentation skills with collaboration scripts (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Vogel, F., Kollar, I., Ufer, S., Reiss, K., & Fischer, F. (2016). Fostering university freshmen’s mathematical argumentation skills with collaboration scripts. In C. Looi, J. Polman, U. Cress, & P. Reimann (Eds.), Transforming Learning, Empowering Learners: The International Conference of the Learning Sciences (ICLS) 2016 (599-606)

Students often have problems formulating und using arguments in mathematical contexts. Therefore, we investigated to what extent a collaboration script helps students overcome their problems and acquire mathematical argumentation skills. In two previ...

Invasion of the energy monsters: a family board game about energy consumption (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Banerjee, A., Horn, M. S., & Davis, P. (2016). Invasion of the energy monsters: a family board game about energy consumption.

We present Invasion of the Energy Monsters, a board game that attempts to highlight the role of family practices in household energy consumption. While household energy management activities — such as controlling heating and cooling systems — tend to...
