LavicIt’s time to build skyscrapers: A digital task sequence on graphs as representations of covarying quantities

Activity: Talk or presentationContributed talkscience-to-science

Description

This study proposes a digital task sequence, drawing on DNR-based instruction, designed to support students in developing an understanding of graphs as representations of covarying quantities. It reports on a lesson case involving 22 first-year undergraduate students who engaged with the sequence. The findings highlight the potential of the digital task sequence to develop emergent graphical shape thinking (EGST) as a productive way of thinking about graphs. By progressively bridging situational and graphical reasoning, students demonstrated the ability to interpret, construct, and refine meanings related to graphs.
