Ability to translate from one representation of the concept of function to another and mathematical problem solving
Gagatsis, Athanasios; Shiakalli, Myria (2004)Representations are used extensively in mathematics and translation ability is highly correlated with success in mathematics education. The authors investigate the translation ability of university students as far as the ...

Algebraic and Geometric Approach in Function Problem Solving
Mousoulides,Nicholas G.; Gagatsis, Athanasios (International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2004)This study explores students algebraic and geometric approach in solving tasks in functions and the relation of these approaches with complex geometric problem solving. Data were obtained from 95 sophomore pre-service ...

Ambiguity in the way of looking at geometrical figures
Michael-Chrysanthou, Paraskevi; Gagatsis, Athanasios (2014)This paper discusses the different ways the students look at geometrical figures in solving geometrical tasks and the different types of reasoning that occur in relation to the different types of figural apprehension, ...

Article
Are registers of representations and problem solving processes on functions compartmentalized in students' thinking?
Gagatsis, Athanasios; Elia, Iliada; Mousoulides,Nicholas G. (2006)The purpose of the present study is twofold: first, to review and summarize previous research on the compartmentalization of different registers of representations and problem solving approaches related to the concept of ...

Assessing Student Problem-Solving Skills
Kyriakides, Leonidas; Gagatsis, Athanasios (Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2003)This study examines the construct validity of the Mathematical Patterns Test using data from 848 Cypriot primary school students. Descriptive analyses across 5 age groups suggested a developmental structure of individual ...

Article
Behind the scenes of pseudo-proportionality
Modestou, Modestina; Elia, Iliada; Gagatsis, Athanasios; Spanoudis, George C. (2008)In this study, we attempt to put in question students’ spontaneous and uncritical application of the simple and neat mathematical formula of linearity. This is impelled with the help of a written test involving geometrical ...

Can the spontaneous and uncritical application of the linear model be questioned?
Modestou, Modestina; Gagatsis, Athanasios (2006)In this research paper we attempt to put in question students’ spontaneous and uncritical application of the simple and neat mathematical formula of linearity. This is impelled with the help of a written test, where students ...

Classical versus vector geometry in problem solving. An empirical research among Greek secondary pupils
Gagatsis, Athanasios; Demetriadou, Helen (2001)An analysis of written solutions to geometry exercises in the last year of Greek Lyceum (15-18 years old) showed relatively low performance on vector methods, which is justified on the one hand by pupils' false preconceptions ...
