Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM 2000) emphasizes having students experience mathematics as mathematicians do and demonstrates that the Process Standards—Problem Solving, Reasoning and Proof, Communication, Connections, and Representation—are not simply means through which mathematics is learned and taught; they are also the manner through which mathematics is done. This article presents an abbreviated version of the musings and methodologies experienced by mathematics educators through a genuine problemsolving investigation. This account will investigate dimensions of an algebraic concept known to many high school students and show how these lead to an intuitive understanding of the limit in calculus. Readers will experience and come to a deeper understanding of the Process Standards as well as experience the necessity of using multiple representations to make and solve mathematical conjectures. To accomplish these multidimensional goals, the authors describe a chronological development of mathematical ideas among themselves and invite readers to reason along with them in their actual investigations.

RESUMEN La presente investigación, busca identificar la manera como las representaciones múltiples pueden incidir en el fortalecimiento de la competencia argumentativa en estudiantes de básica secundaria. La fundamentación metodológica en la cual se sustenta tiene como soporte, el enfoque cualitativo-comprensivo y, la estrategia de investigación bajo el método estudio de caso; perspectivas que orientan adecuadamente el ejercicio investigativo en el campo de la educación, porque permiten ofrecer recursos y herramientas favorables para tal actividad. Teniendo en cuenta lo anterior, se realizó un proceso de intervención pedagógica, con un enfoque investigativo, relacionado con la ley general de gases ideales, mediante la ejecución de los elementos presentados en el ciclo didáctico. Entre tanto, en las técnicas utilizadas para el proceso de intervención se encuentran: la observación participante, el grupo de discusión y la encuesta. De manera específica se retoman como instrumentos para la construcción de los datos; la entrevista semiestructurada y la guía de preguntas. La investigación se llevó a cabo con la participación, equitativa, de doce estudiantes de la básica secundaria, pertenecientes a ambas instituciones educativas de la ciudad de Medellín. En cuanto a las conclusiones, se encuentra que el uso sistemático de las representaciones múltiples posibilita una mayor comprensión de la temática ley general de gases ideales, permite alcanzar un mejor nivel argumentativo y desarrollar un lenguaje más cercano a las ciencias.   ABSTRACT This research seeks to identify how multiple representations can influence the strengthening of argumentative competence in high school students. The methodological foundation on which it is based is supported by the qualitative-comprehensive approach and the research strategy under the case study method; perspectives that adequately guide the research exercise in the field of education, because they allow offering favorable resources and tools for such activity. Considering the above, a process of pedagogical intervention was carried out, with an investigative approach, related to the general law of ideal gases, through the execution of the elements presented in the didactic cycle. Among the techniques used for the intervention process were: participant observation, discussion group and survey. Specifically, the semi-structured interview and the guide of questions were used as instruments for the construction of the data. The research was carried out with the equal participation of twelve high school students from both educational institutions in the city of Medellin. As for the conclusions, it is found that the systematic use of multiple representations enables a better understanding of the general law of ideal gases, allows reaching a better argumentative level and developing a language closer to science.

One of the most frequently observed explanations in misconceptions is conceptual understanding. This research aimed to determine the senior high school students’ conceptual understanding of Newton’s laws in outer space. The researchers assumed that the research results would be rich in variation by elaborating the item questions based on the precise step of Digital Story Conceptual Change-Oriented as a learning medium.  The researchers researched State Senior High School 5 Yogyakarta. The participants of this study consisted of 91 students. The applied instruments were fifteen two-tier multiple-choice items. The researchers also used a non-test instrument, namely an interview sheet. The researchers found related misconceptions in Newton’s law in outer space during the research. It was found that 30% of students experienced misconceptions. The results are important for the learning process that through identification, teachers could use strategy to explain the materials.

Abstract The Force Concepts Inventory is a test to determine the level of conceptual knowledge of students about mechanical physics and to evaluate the effectiveness of different teaching strategies on the conceptual component of learning. The test is applied with the purpose of knowing the level of conceptualization of the students of a Physics subject course. The results of the pre-test made it possible to find out the level of conceptualization that the students possessed and provided information for the development of workshops based on real physical situations that required the elaboration of force diagrams. The results of the post-test allowed estimating Hake’s learning and showed evidence about the conceptual evolution of the students and information to develop future teaching activities on Newton’s laws.

A modification of the Paired-Stimuli Parent Program (Florance, 1977) was adapted for the treatment of articulatory errors of visually handicapped children. Blind high school students served as clinical aides. A discussion of treatment methodology, and the results of administrating the program to 32 children, including a two-year follow-up evaluation to measure permanence of behavior change, is presented.
