Students’ understanding of trigonometric functions (2005, background): “As Schoenfeld (2000) argued, demonstrating the superiority of one form of instruction over another is often not possible.”
The education of mathematically gifted students: Some complexities and questions (2011, methodology): “Following Schoenfeld (2000, 2002), who shed light on the two main purposes of research in mathematics education, I maintain that research in the field of mathematical giftedness and creativity must be carried out in two interrelated directions: First (theoretical) is to understand the nature of…”
The Impact of Middle-Grades Mathematics Curricula and the Classroom Learning Environment on Student Achievement. (2008, background): “Variation in implementation of curricular materials is cited as a factor that is likely to contribute to mediation of the impact of textbooks on student learning (Briars, 2001; Remillard, 2005; Huntley et al., 2000; Schoenfeld, 2000; Tarr, Chávez, Reys, & Reys, 2006).”
Mathematical problem solving: an evolving research and practice domain (2007, methodology): “... in mathematical problem solving? What research methodologies have been used? What are the main research results that have been published? Is there any trend in research methodologies and results? How have research results influenced mathematical practices? A remarkable feature in the problem sol”
Research methods in (mathematics) education (2008, methodology): “This discussion is expanded from Schoenfeld (2000).”
