Abstract:

Data from a comparative judgement survey consisting of 62 working mathematics educators (ME) at Norwegian universities or city colleges, and 57 working mathematicians at Norwegian universities. A total of 3607 comparisons of which 1780 comparisons by the ME and 1827 ME. The comparative judgement survey consisted of respondents comparing pairs of statements on mathematical definitions compiled from a literature review on mathematical definitions in the mathematics education literature. Each WM was asked to judge 40 pairs of statements with the following question: “As a researcher in mathematics, where your target group is other mathematicians, what is more important about mathematical definitions?” Each ME was asked to judge 41 pairs of statements with the following question: “For a mathematical definition in the context of teaching and learning, what is more important?” The comparative judgement was done with No More Marking software (nomoremarking.com) The data set consists of the following data: <li>comparisons made by ME (ME.csv)</li> <li>comparisons made by WM (WM.csv)</li> <li>Look up table of codes of statements and statement formulations (key.csv)</li> Each line in the comparison represents a comparison, where the "winner" column represents the winner and the "loser" column the loser of the comparison.
