This investigation explored the role of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered gamification on mathematics cognition through a mixed-methods design, blending an intervention with a gamified learning application (app) and a survey to evaluate student engagement and performance. The study explores the nexus of gamification, AI, and mathematics…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the types of errors grade 10 students make in solving selected trigonometry problems. Another aim was to understand the origins of these errors that Students make when solving trigonometry problems. Another central purpose of the study was to provide instructional recommendations for addressing the…

The extent of engagement between students and their teachers, peers, academic and extracurricular activities goes a long way in creating a sense of belonging for students and effectual improvement in their performance in the subject matter. This study investigated the effect of mastery learning instructional scheme (MLIS) on post-basic school…

In this paper, we examine whether a student's language background and other demographic factors have any relationship to their performance on prose questions in math, which we define as questions with open-ended answers containing one or more complete sentences of English. Prose questions stand in contrast to non-prose questions, which are more…

Background: Comparative educational research has studied inequality in educational outcomes through large-scale assessments like PISA and TIMSS, by identifying achievement gaps within social groups (e.g., gender, parental education, and immigrant gaps) to inform investment in intervention programs and educational policies. However, the focus of…

Increasingly, mathematics educators see the importance of representation of diversity in pedagogical texts. The number of identity markers often considered has increased over the previous half century, and now includes, for instance, gender, class, ethnicity, religion, functionality, and sexual orientation. We investigate representation of…

The current study explores the preferences of primary school teachers on the characteristics of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)-based teaching via Discrete Choice Models (DCM). These models analyze the preferences of teachers towards alternatives that are formed by different characteristics. In this study we examined the…

This study explores indigenous pedagogical methods for teaching geometry in three secondary schools within the Kalomo District of Zambia. The study addresses three primary objectives: (1) exploring the utilization of Indigenous pedagogical methods in teaching geometry, (2) assessing the impact of integrating traditional knowledge on student…

The perception and manipulation of spatial information are essential for mathematical learning, and research highlights gender differences in spatial abilities. The present study contributes to the question of whether these differences are evident at earlier ages and how they interact with task complexity in mental rotation. We developed the…

Probability literacy has gained importance in educational curricula. The aim of this research was to analyse secondary education teachers' attitudes towards probability and its teaching and to examine differences across the factors of gender, academic training, and work experience. From a positivist paradigm, a quantitative methodology was used.…

The purpose of this study is to analyse the math skills of elementary school students based on various variables. This study aims to evaluate the success of students in elementary school math classes during the 2022-2023 academic year according to teacher opinions based on various variables. The data obtained may contribute to researchers working…

Acquiring mathematical literacy requires students to apply mathematics in various real-world contexts. However, mathematics classes often provide brief, content-focused descriptions of reality-based tasks and tasks that describe the situation as more complex, closer to reality, are still lacking. Students with different sociodemographic…

This study offers a comprehensive investigation of 14-15-year-old students' comprehension of non-Euclidean geometries, with a specific focus on the assessment of their understanding through a 15-itemed test. The primary objective of this research is to assess the current state of students' knowledge and proficiency in non-Euclidean geometries and…

Many students across the country experienced a decline in academic performance due to COVID-19. As a result, college readiness measures have fallen short, especially in math. This lack of preparation frequently leads to additional teaching, wasting important class time by going over the prerequisite content again instead of using it to study new…

This study aims to analyze the impact of cognitive flexibility and classroom engagement levels on high school students' creative problem-solving skills. The participants are 341 tenth grade students from three different high schools, along with nine mathematics teachers who have been teaching these students for at least two years. Data analysis…
