María del Mar López-Martín; María Burgos Navarro; Verónica Albanese – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2025
To ensure the learning of mathematics, teachers must be able to analyse their students' mathematical practices when solving tasks, interpret the difficulties that students encounter, and decide how to manage students' difficulties. This competence in didactic analysis and intervention allows teachers to adapt their teaching to meet individual…

Tanti Listiani – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2023
Learning loss due to online learning has caused students to experience a decrease in their ability to solve mathematical problems. One of the declines in students' mathematical problem-solving skills occurred in the statistics course. Statistics as a branch of mathematics has an important role in training students' skills in processing and…

Georgina Maria Tinungki; Powell Gian Hartono; Budi Nurwahyu; Anna Islamiyati; Robiyanto Robiyanto; Agus Budi Hartono; Muhammad Yaasiin Raya – Cogent Education, 2024
Self-proficiency, distinct from self-efficacy, is a more comprehensive dimension in assessing students' abilities. Moreover, the TAI cooperative learning model is believed to be relevant in enhancing self-proficiency, as well as other mathematical ability dimensions, particularly in Statistics course. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the…

Bopelo Boitshwarelo; Maneka Jayasinghe – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2024
Learning statistics can be challenging for many students, due to their inability to engage in statistical reasoning and application of techniques. This challenge becomes compounded in online learning contexts where students are spatially and temporally separated from the teacher. This paper describes and explains a case of theory-driven…

Ava Greenwood; Sara Davies; Timothy J. McIntyre – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2023
This article is motivated by the importance of developing statistically literate students. The authors present a selection of problems that could be used to motivate student interest in probability as well as providing additional depth to the curriculum when used alongside traditional resources. The solutions presented utilise natural frequencies…

Nikiforidou, Zoi; Jones, Jennie – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2023
Young children encounter uncertainty and challenges on a daily basis; through their intuitions, experiences and experimentation they construct knowledge, skills and dispositions towards probabilistic concepts. The aim of this exploratory ethnographic study is to identify how young children engage with probabilistic thinking and reasoning while…

Chiew Leng Ng; Cheng Meng Chew – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
Despite statistics learning becoming more important during this information explosion era, many students still deem the subject complex and challenging. Measures of dispersion, a critical component of statistical knowledge that students often struggle with, have received little attention in research on statistics education. The goal of this study…

Koparan, Timur; Rodríguez-Alveal, Francisco – Journal of Pedagogical Research, 2022
Solving real-life problems through mathematical modeling is one of the aims of modern mathematics curricula. For this reason, prospective mathematics teachers need to acquire modeling skills and use these skills in learning environments in terms of creating rich learning environments. With this study, it is aimed to examine the reflections of…

Østergaard, Camilla Hellsten – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
We present a detailed analysis of two statistics lessons in lower secondary school, one in Denmark and the other in Japan. The aim of the study is to better understand how inquiry perspectives are implemented in statistics education and what cultural factors shape them. In particular, we draw on the theoretical framework of the Anthropological…
