Edge Models with the CAD Software: Creating a New Context for Mathematics in Elementary School

Abstract

Digital media have become increasingly important in recent years and can offer new possibilities for mathematics education in elementary schools. From our point of view, geometry and geometric objects seem to be suitable for the use of computer-aided design software in mathematics classes. Based on the example of Tinkercad, the use of CAD software — a new and challenging context in elementary schools — is discussed within the approach of domains of subjective experience and the Toulmin model. An empirical study examined the influence of Tinkercad on fourth-graders’ development of a model of a geometric solid and related reasoning processes in mathematics classes.

Design Thinking in Mathematics Education for Primary School: A Systematic Literature Review

“…There has been a significant growth of research in years 2021. Most of the research (30%) recruited in years 2021 (Balakrishnan, 2021;Eriksson & Sumpter, 2021;Herbert & Williams, 2021;Irakleous et al, 2021;Leong, 2021;Ng & Cui, 2021;Pielsticker et al, 2021). 7 of research years in 2021 were from Australia, Cyprus, Germany, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore and Sweden.…”

“…Our systematic review only included papers published in English; nevertheless, the investigations were done in a variety of cultural contexts across the world. With the most empirical investigations, Germany had dominated the outcomes (13%) (Pielsticker et al, 2021;Rottman et al, 2019;. Australia also had dominated the outcomes (13%) (Herbert & Williams, 2021;Jorgensen & Larkin, 2017;Miller, 2019).…”

“…Next place were problem-solving (31%) (Ng & Cui, 2021;van Hooijdonk et al, 2020;Xin, 2019). Followed by develop a model (17%) (Jorgensen & Larkin, 2017;Ott, 2020;Pielsticker et al, 2021;Rottmann, Haberzettl, & Krämer, 2020). Last is experience (4%) (Leong, 2021).…”

“…The Figure 6 shows that, there is four out of twenty-three articles not specifies or mention the topic (18%) (Balakrishnan, 2021;Jorgensen & Larkin, 2017;Miller, 2019). Next, Geometry topic (26%) (Fujita, Kondo, Kumakura, Kunimune, & Jones, 2020;Ng & Cui, 2021;Ott, 2020;Pielsticker et al, 2021;Price, Yiannoutsou, & Vezzoli, 2020) and Algebra topic (26%) (Ayala-Altamirano & Molina, 2020;Blanton et al, 2017;Eriksson & Sumpter, 2021;Freiman et al, 2017;Xin, 2019) share the same number of topic in research articles research. This was followed by the research that employed Arithmetic topic (13%) (Kaur, 2019;Rottmann et al, 2020; and Fraction topic (9%) (Can & Yetkin Özdemir, 2020;Shahbari & Peled, 2017).…”

“…Secara lebih jauh, studi-studi seperti yang dilakukan oleh Yalman & Basaran (2021); (Pielsticker et al, 2021); (Chootongchai et al, 2021) juga (Jandrić & Hayes, 2020) sebelumnya pun mengambil fokus di seputar hibridisasi teknologi dalam…”
