A lab that studies teaching methods and assessment that encourage analogical reasoning in learning mathematics.

AboutAbout the lab
Approaching mathematics education through analogical reasoning
Nakagawa Lab studies the learning and teaching of mathematics from the perspective of mathematics education research.
The lab works on developing teaching methods and assessment frameworks that improve and promote "adaptation," a difficulty students face when reasoning by analogy.
It also works on developing teaching materials that promote collaborative inquiry activities and on developing diffractive analysis methods in mathematics education research.
Key terms
- Mathematics education research
- A field that studies how mathematics is taught and learned. It covers teaching methods, materials, and ways of assessing learning
- Analogical reasoning
- Thinking about a different problem or matter by using similarities to something already known as a clue
- Collaborative inquiry activities
