Yanping Ma; Gail Tang – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
We believe that developing cultural competencies can help students learn mathematics and conversely that learning mathematical content can help students learn about themselves and others. Using frameworks introduced by Rendón (2009) and Gutiérrez (2018), we present a five-part bundle of activities for undergraduate differential equations course…

Ai, Fangzhe; Chen, Yishuai; Guo, Yuchun; Zhao, Yongxiang; Wang, Zhenzhu; Fu, Guowei; Wang, Guangyan – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2019
Personalized education systems recommend learning contents to students based on their capacity to accelerate their learning. This paper proposes a personalized exercise recommendation system for online self-directed learning. We first improve the performance of knowledge tracing models. Existing deep knowledge tracing models, such as Dynamic…

Greene, M.; von Renesse, C. – PRIMUS, 2017
This paper aims to illustrate a design cycle of inquiry-based mathematics activities. We highlight a series of questions that we use when creating inquiry-based materials, testing and evaluating those materials, and revising the materials following this evaluation. These questions highlight the many decisions necessary to find just the right tasks…

de Araujo, Zandra – Curriculum Inquiry, 2017
The tasks teachers select impact students' opportunities to learn mathematics and teachers' beliefs influence their choice of tasks. Through the qualitative analysis of surveys, interviews and classroom artefacts from three secondary mathematics teachers, this study examined teachers' selection of mathematics tasks for English language learners…

Seah, Wee Tiong; Barkatsas, Anastasios – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2012
The number of ethnic Chinese students in schools across Australian cities is small but increasing. It is important to understand how these students socialise into the Australian (mathematics) education system, so that we can better facilitate their education experiences in ways which optimise their potential to learn. This paper reports on part of…

Hill, Stephen E.; Schvaneveldt, Shane J. – Journal of Statistics Education, 2011
This article presents an educational exercise in which statistical process control charts are constructed and used to identify the Steroids Era in American professional baseball. During this period (roughly 1993 until the present), numerous baseball players were alleged or proven to have used banned, performance-enhancing drugs. Also observed…

Knypstra, Sytse – Journal of Statistics Education, 2009
In a statistics course for bachelor students in econometrics a new format was adopted in which students were encouraged to study more actively and in which cooperative learning and peer teaching was implemented. Students had to work in groups of two or three students where each group had to perform certain tasks. One of these tasks was: explaining…
