This paper aims to emphasize the role of mathematics in computational design education. A computational design process that forces designers to design not only the end product but also the design process itself requires a mind shift to enable the designer to develop algorithms and skills to deal with complex relations. In this context, understanding rule-based systems, generative systems, parametric models and corresponding dimensionalities responding to the forces, variables, patterns, and the mathematics behind them, becomes crucial. Illustrating the reciprocal relationship between mathematics and architecture pattern studies offers great potentials. In this paper, a series of explorations have been presented. In this exploration dance acts as a medium of inquiry into how different complexities can be mapped, how rules can be generative (as first introduced in patterns) and how a set of rules can be transcoded into a complex domain.

Art and Literature as a Teaching/Learning Interface of Mathematics for Students of Architecture Sorguç, Arzu (null; 2009-09-16) This paper discusses an educational approach emphasizing the changing role of mathematics and potentials of mathematical thinking in architectural education on the course of changing design paradigm: from designing the product to designing the process. In this context, randomly selected samples of student works, realized within the context of an elective undergraduate course, Arch 333 "Mathematics in Architecture" at Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkiye are presented. It is shown that mathemati...
Promoting and investigating pre-service middle school mathematics teachers' TPACK-practical development in the context of an undergraduate course Koştur, Merve; Haser, Çiğdem; Department of Elementary Education (2018) The purpose of the study was to enhance and investigate the technological pedagogical content knowledge-practical (TPACK-P) development of pre-service middle school mathematics teachers (PMTs) through the Technology Use in Mathematics Education (TUME) course aiming TPACK-P development in three pedagogical domains: Assessment, Planning and Design, and Enactment. TUME course was designed and implemented based on four principles driven from the TPACK and TPACK-P frameworks which were transformative approach, c...
An Investigation of in-service secondary mathematics teachers’ evolving knowledge through professional development activities based on modeling perspective Aydoğan Yenmez, Arzu; Erbaş, Ayhan Kürşat; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2012) Although an increasing number of research studies in mathematics education have begun focusing their efforts on mathematical modeling as a need for change to convey mathematical ideas beyond schools, there is not enough information about the nature of the teacher knowledge for effective use of modeling in mathematics teaching and how this knowledge evolves. The goal of this study is to investigate teachers’ evolving knowledge when they engage in professional development activities based on lesson study cycl...
Evolution of Mathematics Teachers' Pedagogical Knowledge when They are Teaching through Modeling Yenmez, Arzu Aydogan; Erbaş, Ayhan Kürşat; Alacaci, Cengiz; Çakıroğlu, Erdinç; Çetinkaya, Bülent (2017-01-01) Use of mathematical modeling in mathematics education has been receiving significant attention as a way to develop students. mathematical knowledge and skills. As effective use of modeling in classes depends on the competencies of teachers we need to know more about the nature of teachers. knowledge to use modeling in mathematics education and how this knowledge evolves. The aim of this study is to investigate how teachers. pedagogical knowledge to use modeling in the classroom is formed and modified throug...
A STUDY ON MATHEMATICS TEACHERS' USE OF TEXTBOOKS IN INSTRUCTIONAL PROCESS ÖZGELDİ, MERİÇ; Çakıroğlu, Erdinç (2011-02-13) This paper provides an analysis of mathematics teachers' use of curriculum materials. 13 elementary mathematics teachers participated in the interviews for how they used the curriculum materials, specifically textbooks. The purpose of this study is to examine what mathematics teachers do with curriculum materials and how they use them for mathematics. The results of the interviews indicated that mathematics teachers used different textbooks to make instructional decisions, and they mostly adapted problems a...
