Students showed poor performance in applying higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) in solving Additional Mathematics problems. Therefore, this study examined the effects of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and Collaborative Learning (CL) assisted by Geometer's Sketch Pad on the four levels of HOTS of Form Four students, namely Applying, Analysing,…

Problem-based learning (PBL) is linked to developing learners' creative thinking in mathematics. This process-oriented approach capitalizes on using problems to stimulate learning through independent and collaborative investigations. This meta-analysis looked at the effectiveness of using PBL to influence mathematical creativity. Fifteen results…

This study aims to explore the effectiveness of collaboration between the Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) approach and the problem-based learning (PBL) model in improving student learning outcomes at junior high school and senior high school levels. TaRL is a method that emphasizes learning tailored to students' individual ability levels, while…

The purpose of this study was to analyze the activities in the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) methodology among high school students when solving problems related to the field of plane figures, both in extra-mathematical and intra-mathematical environments. The research was qualitative and constituted a case study. The technique used to select the…

A central goal of lesson-centered professional development programs (PD) for mathematics teachers is to learn by constructing an artifact, for example, by designing and improving a lesson plan together. That leads to the questions, what does it mean, for mathematics teachers, to improve a lesson? And how can improvements be accounted for in the…

The purpose of the investigation was to determine if there was a difference in student performance on the NYS Mathematics State Assessment between schools that implemented PBL versus those that did not. The aim was also to determine if there was a difference in students' and teachers' attitudes about the school community, specifically in rigorous…

Students need critical thinking skills to develop their ideas in mathematics learning situations at school, and they can apply mathematical concepts in solving contextual problems. Junior high school students have unique characteristics and are highly curious about new knowledge. Therefore, it is crucial to apply the learning models that support…

"Elementary and Middle School Mathematics" illustrates how children in PreK to 8th grade learn math, and then shows the most effective methods of teaching math using problem-based activities. Examples of real student work and common challenges help you visualize developmentally appropriate mathematics instruction and assessment that…

This study examined problem-based learning in blended learning classrooms for practicing mathematical problems in an emergency situation, such as Covid-19. For this purpose, a three-week program was framed in contrast to traditional teaching, aiming at enrichment and not remediation, for a group of fifty students' studying mathematics in a science…

The importance of literacy is a competency requirement that must be possessed by students to face competition in the 21st century. This is directly related to the extent to which students' scientific thinking processes understand and solve problems. This study aims to describe how literacy is trained in learning in junior high schools. The…

Climate change put most species' survival in danger because it substantially affects the climate in which the species live, the quality of the water they drink, as well as the temperature of the air or water. When climate change increases the temperature of the climate, excessive evaporation occurs in lands, lakes, seas, and oceans. Our purpose in…

One argument for the use of contexts in mathematics instruction has been that contexts can serve as anchors that support students in understanding and recalling mathematical ideas. Evidence of this anchoring role occurring in standard classroom settings, however, is lacking. This case study of a single high school classroom using a contextual…

Purpose: This study reports on the comparison of Problem-based Learning (PBL) and routine method of learning in encouraging teamwork among pre-university students in solving mathematics problems. Method: The participants in this research consisted of selected students from a pre-university college. One group of 159 students formed the experimental…

This research is included into development research type. This research uses a 4-D model (define, design, develop, and disseminate) Thiagarajan, Semmel, and Semmel. This research is organized by learning media and instruments, namely: the student's handbook, the teacher's handbook, lesson plan, the student's exercise sheet, the student's…

The pre-service teacher followed in this paper aimed to act as an agent of change during a time of reform in Irish secondary mathematics education. A teacher-researcher led action research project was conducted to depict the reality of the situation regarding the implementation of mathematical problem solving from a variety of perspectives-namely…
