Figure 6

Transition networks of teaching practices during Mathematics lessons. The PMFG-filtered networks for (a) Grade 5 Mathematics and (b) Grade 9 Mathematics are drawn with features (i), (ii), and (iii) as described in Figure 3. We use dark edges to highlight the MST backbone of the PMFG network. The node placement was determined by the same multilevel force algorithm [32] in Figure 3 acted on the MST edges. We also indicate the community of the nodes in the graph by their colour. They are detected with a community-detection algorithm [13] that was built into the graphing software based on its MST backbone as well. The detection process, not guided by any pedagogy theory, nevertheless produced communities of variables that are in general agreement in pedagogy theory.
