Abstract
Transnumeration, the ability to reason with and transition between multiple representational forms, has unique pedagogical affordances. Technological advancements can provide novices with more extensive transnumeration experiences. However, much is yet to be discovered about the software’s mediational role, especially when representing stochastic behaviour. We present a case study of two prospective primary school teachers' participation in a learning sequence inspired by the practice of statistical modeling that calls for representing sources for systematic and stochastic variation. The affordances and hindrances of their use of Tinker Plots software are discussed, explaining how, although initially lost in transnumeration, they were ultimately found.
