Comparing the concept images and hierarchical classification skills of students at different educational levels regarding parallelograms: a cross-sectional study

The Relationship Between Basic Cognitive Skills and Math Learning Disabilities in The First Grade

“…Our results are also consistent with studies that have found associations between analytical skills and mathematics (Korolova & Zeidmane, 2016;Kunpol, 2015). They are also consistent with Birgin & Özkan (2022), who emphasized the relationship between classification skills and mathematics. However, our findings do not support other studies that have denied this relationship (Douglas & LeFevre, 2018).…”

“…Research into the relationship of cognitive skills to academic achievement in mathematics and mathematical learning difficulties has taken various forms. Some studies have identified relationships between conceptual images and mathematical pyramid classification and hierarchy skills, parallels, and geometric objects in mathematics at different stages of education (Birgin & Özkan, 2022). Other studies have found a relationship between numerical skills and mathematics in kindergarten and the beginning of primary school (Aunio & Räsänen, 2016;Gashaj, Oberer, Mast & Roebers, 2019).…”

Mathematics teacher educators’ noticing of pedagogical content knowledge on hierarchical classification of quadrilateral

“…Those who understood the hierarchical classification could explain pre-service teachers' reason related to the relation of quadrilateral properties, that some of them are subsets because of their special cases. However, in their understanding of the classification, although hierarchical, some were deficient in their concept images of parallelograms, as evidenced by the response in Figure 3, where this finding also occurred in preservice teachers (Birgin & Özkan, 2022). While those who have difficulties in understanding the hierarchical classification, use partial classification and refer to the quadrilaterals' different visual appearance.…”
