Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The general aim of the panel was to offer a reflection on the genesis and the contribution of the European Society for Research in Mathematics Education (ERME) to research in mathematics education, regarding its past, present and future. After a short introduction, the panel focused on three topics: The ERME society, presenting a historical and present view; YERME and YESS, highlighting history and current developments related to supporting young researchers; the ERME book, focusing on its evolution, spirit and results. Each topic started with an input by two panel members who also answered questions by participants of CERME 11 sent in advance or raised during the panel. The panel was concluded by the president and the two co-chairs of the panel.

Toddlers exploring structural elements in play

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The focus of this paper is on possibilities for children to discern elements of structure and to develop structural awareness through play. In Sweden, preschool is part of the education system why teaching is to be conducted. At the same time, play is to be promoted and consciously used. In this paper, we explore possibilities for the youngest preschool children (2-3-yearolds) to discern structural elements in a rule-based play. In the example, discerning structural elements becomes of importance for being able to participate proficiently in the play. As such, the example shows that a conscious use of play may promote toddlers’ development of structural awareness which in turn is of importance for further mathematical learning and for their participating in the play.

Time series analysis: Moving averages as an approach to analysing textbooks
- 2020
-
In: Proceedings of CERME11. - : Freudenthal Group & Freudenthal Institute. - 9789073346758
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this study we introduce time series analysis, specifically moving averages, as a novel strategy for analysing mathematics textbooks. Such analyses show how different topics or mathematical processes are emphasised over different time periods, whether at the level of the lesson, the week, the month or year. In this paper, by way of example, we show how one of the eight categories of foundational number sense (Andrews & Sayers, 2015), namely simple addition and subtraction, is distributed and sequenced across three English, year one, textbooks. The analyses are compared empirically with four other methods found in the literature to show how time series analysis using moving averages helps address the shortcomings of these different approaches.
