Abstract

The Pirie-Kieren model for the dynamical growth of mathematical understanding and Brent Davis' mathematical mentalities were used as inquiry guides for this study. The work of Pirie and Kieren offered a way to engage students in their thinking about their experiences with mathematics, while Davis' mentalities helped frame questions to explore students' phenomenological experiences of being with mathematics.
