Description
Summary:The purpose of this study is to implement an a-didactical activity relating to the acquisition of the triangle inequality, prepared within the framework of the <i>Didactic Situations Theory</i> (TDS), and to report the experiences of the students during the implementation process. The study employs a case study method based on a qualitative approach. Six seventh-grade students in a middle-low socioeconomic secondary school in the Marmara Region of Türkiye participated in the study. The researchers prepared an a-didactical activity in which students discovered triangle inequality. Data were collected through observation, video recording, and worksheets. A descriptive analysis was performed on the data obtained. As a result of the analysis, it was concluded that students completed the activity with the correct expressions by experiencing different phases of the a-didactical situation.
