Researching Quantifications of Angularity Using Genetic Epistemology Constructs
摘要
In this chapter, I discuss the interplay between constructs with Piagetian roots and my dissertation research, which examined ninth-grade students’ quantifications of angularity. I reflect on how exposure to such constructs supported me in selecting and framing my dissertation topic. Following this, I discuss how some methods of the study were impacted by prior Neo-Piagetian work. I close the chapter by briefly mentioning a persistent challenge encountered when presenting my work as well as a promising indication regarding the state of research on quantifying angularity.
