Students' Concept Development of Limits

Year: 2007

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Students’ learning developments of limits were studied in a calculus course. Their actions, such as problem solving and reasoning, were considered traces of their mental representations of concepts and were used to describe the developments during a semester. Several students went through the course with a vague conception of limits which in some cases was wrong. A higher awareness about their mental representations’ reliability is required.
