Connecting Number Theory with High School Mathematics
Number theory is the study of natural numbers and one of the oldest branches of mathematics. Elementary number theory concepts are integrated into K-12 learning experience. This paper will identify ideas and methods in elementary number theory that could be connected to K-12 education and taught in high school classrooms. In fact, Common Core Standards in Mathematics include some basic concepts and skills in elementary number theory. In this study, we will focus on the greatest common divisor, Euclid\u27s algorithm, least common multiple, factorization and divisibility criteria (divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 11). We hope that learning these contents could foster students’ interests in mathematics and help them develop computational and reasoning skills

Task-related models for teaching and assessing iteration learning in high school
A number of studies report about students’ difficulties with basic flow-control constructs,
and specifically with iteration. Although such issues are less explored in the
context of pre-tertiary education, this seems to be especially the case for high-school
programming learning, where the difficulties concern both the “mechanical” features
of the notional machine as well as the logical aspects connected with the constructs,
ranging from the implications of loop conditions to a more abstract grasp of the
underlying algorithms.
For these reasons, the aim of this work is to: i) identifying methodological tools
to enhance a comprehensive understanding of the iteration constructs, ii) suggest
strategies to teach iterations.
We interviewed 20 experienced upper secondary teachers of introductory programming
in different kinds of schools. The interviews were mainly aimed at ascertaining
teachers’ beliefs about major sources of issues for basic programming
concepts and their approach to the teaching and learning of iteration constructs.
Once teachers’ perception of students’ difficulties have been identified, we have
submitted, to a sample of 164 students, a survey which included both questions on
their subjective perception of difficulty and simple tasks probing their understanding
of iteration. Data collected from teachers and students confirm that iteration is a
central programming concept and indicate that the treatment of conditions and
nested constructs are major sources of students’ difficulties with iteration.
The interviews allowed us to identify a list of problems that are typically presented
by teachers to explain the iterations. Hence, a catalogue of significant program
examples has been built to support students’ learning, tasks with characteristics
different from those typically presented in class.
Based on the outcome of previous steps, a survey to collect related information
and good practices from a larger sample of teachers has been designed. Data
collected have been analysed distinguishing an orientation towards more conceptual
objectives, and one towards more practical objectives. Furthermore, regarding
evaluation, a orientation focused on process-based assessment and another on
product-based assessment.
Finally, based on the outcome of previous students’ survey and drawing from
the proposed examples catalogue, we have designed and submitted a new students’
survey, composed of a set of small tasks, or tasklets, to investigate in more depth
on high-school students’ understanding of iteration in terms of code reading abilities.
The chosen tasklets covered the different topics: technical program feature,
correlation between tracing effort and abstraction, the role of flow-charts, students’
perception of self-confidence concerning high-level thinking skills.A number of studies report about students’ difficulties with basic flow-control constructs,
