In order to effectively learn physics, students need to be actively involved in problem solving. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between students' metacognitive awareness and their problem solving strategies in physics. Conceptual framework was based on Polya's problem solving strategies and Shraw and Dennison's…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to present the results of measuring a sample of engineering students' perceived achievement of complex thinking at different stages of their professional training. This study intended to analyze and predict the differences in the self-perception of achieved complex thinking competency by gender, semester,…

Despite problem posing's prominence in mathematics education research, its implementation in classrooms is limited. Therefore, teacher educators should incorporate problem posing tasks into preparation programs to help prospective teachers gain confidence in their abilities. One approach to teaching problem posing includes providing examples. The…

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in educational environments presents creative chances to improve mathematics education in elementary schools. This mixed-method study investigates the use of artificial intelligence tools in elementary mathematics classrooms. Complementing qualitative data from semi-structured interviews, the…

Reasoning for complexity is a fundamental competency in these complex times for solutions to social problems and decision-making. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the validity and reliability of the eComplexity instrument by presenting its psychometric properties. The instrument consists of a Likert-type scale questionnaire designed to…

Fifteen pre-service mathematics teachers studying in a teachers college participated in a unique program entitled "From high-tech to teaching" as part of a specialization program for teaching advanced secondary school mathematics. During the course, they solved various mathematical problems and then were asked to pose additional problems…

Problem-solving competency is important not only in many careers but also in everyday life. Successful problem solvers regulate their cognitive processes and emotions. Our research aimed to study the impact of gamified problem sheets designed in Seppo on self-regulated learning skills. The intervention was carried out with second-year students in…
