Statistics education researchers have been challenged to consider the theory of inferentialism in understanding concept formation in students. A critique of inferentialism is that no comprehensive method has been formulated to use the theory in practice. In this paper an inferentialism-based framework is presented that appears to be capable of…

On the one hand, mathematical software is ubiquitous in mathematics education. On the other hand, word problems are an important part of the curriculum, and they often require modelling skills. This is especially true with optimisation and extrema problems proposed to high school and undergraduate students. We propose two activities around extrema…

The objective of this research is to examine the impact of the Madrasati platform experience on acquiring mathematical concepts, and improving learning motivation from the point of view of mathematics teachers. To achieve the objective of the research, the researchers relied on the descriptive approach in its survey style. The sample of the study…

The aim of the study informing this paper was to investigate pre-service teachers' (PSTs') approaches to task design, posing the research question: How do pre-service teachers respond when they are asked to design an exploratory task using GeoGebra for 8th grade students? The research study and this paper focus on the PSTs' design stories rather…

ChatGPT has become a significant topic of interest in the field of education, prompting of the potential applications of such technology. The utilization of ChatGPT may facilitate the fostering of 21st century skills, such as computational thinking (CT) and technology, which could subsequently provide a means of offering students personalized…

The problem that this Education Leadership Portfolio (ELP) focused on is the high failure/withdrawal rates of online mathematics courses at Delaware Technical Community College (DTCC), caused in part by the limited flexibility of current course modalities. Therefore, the goal was to increase course pass rates while still providing students…

This paper contains information on a study which investigated the use of GeoGebra software in teaching and learning circle geometry enhancing Grade 11 learners' academic achievement in South Africa. The study employed a quantitative methodological research design that included non-equivalent (pre-test and post-test) quasi-experimental research.…

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of the application of mathematical software to the mathematical abilities of students in Indonesia. For this purpose, 64 effect sizes from 51 studies published in national and international journals from 2011 to 2019 were analyzed using the meta-analysis method. Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA)…

This paper presents a conceptual exploration of how Digital Learning Platforms (DLPs) can be utilized to investigate the impact of language clarity, precision, engagement, and contextual relevance on mathematics learning from word problems. Focusing on three distinct DLPs--ASSISTments/E-TRIALS, MATHia/UpGrade, and Canvas/Terracotta--we propose…

The purpose of this study was twofold. Firstly, to extend the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to assess secondary mathematics school teachers' intention to use Dynamic Geometry Software (DGS) in geometry teaching and, second, to examine the relations between the parameters of TAM and the role of external variables. We extended TAM by integrating…

With growing demand for online courses, it is important to assess the efficacy of quality online virtual instruction. This study investigates the impact of Edmentum's Courseware Algebra I on student achievement using data on 1,205 ninth-grade students from a large urban school district in the Midwest during the 2020-2021 school year. Utilizing a…

The foundation of geometric knowledge and understanding starts in primary school, and in contemporary mathematics education there is an emphasis on identifying learning progressions and trajectories as a way of moving students forward. The van Hiele (1986) theory is well-documented and provides insights into the progression and differences of…

This paper introduces the Affording Understanding Conceptual Framework as a way for mathematics teacher educators to analyze student 's perceptions of a digital math tool 's helpfulness (e.g., GeoGebra) versus the instructor's perceptions when seeking insights into how a lesson design could be improved. An example of this action research process…

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of using GeoGebra software in a computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) environment on seventh grade students' geometry achievement, retention of learning, and attitudes toward geometry. The study was designed using a quasi-experimental research method with pretest, post-test and…

The programmed instruction helps each student gain knowledge with different time or sequences, depending on available knowledge, ability, and learning speed. With this method, students can perform self-evaluation and self-regulation in learning activities. This article presents the application of the programmed instruction method in designing the…
