van den Heuvel-Panhuizen, Marja; Elia, Iliada; Robitzsch, Alexander – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2014
This paper describes a field experiment with a pretest-posttest-control group design in which the potential of reading picture books to children for supporting their mathematical understanding was investigated. The study involved 384 children from eighteen kindergarten classes in eighteen schools in the Netherlands. Data analyses revealed that the…

Ilbagi, Esra Azapagasi; Akgun, Levent – International Journal of Progressive Education, 2013
The purpose of this study is to investigate the mathematical literacy of the 15-year-old students in terms of PISA mathematical literacy questions. The research model of this study is the survey model in the quantitative models. The sample of this study was composed of 1.227 students who received formal education in five different types of schools…

Mowrey, Sascha C.; Farran, Dale C. – Journal of Urban Learning, Teaching, and Research, 2016
The middle grades are a critical transition period in students' mathematics trajectories, as students move from arithmetic to the more complex and abstract concepts of algebra. Teachers' and parents' judgments of students' math abilities in these years are important to instructional planning and decision making for teachers, and can advise parents…

Fennell, Francis – National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, 2011
"Achieving Fluency" presents the understandings that all teachers need to play a role in the education of students who struggle: those with disabilities and those who simply lack essential foundational knowledge. This book serves teachers and supervisors by sharing increasingly intensive instructional interventions for struggling students on…

Common Core State Standards Initiative, 2011
For over a decade, research studies of mathematics education in high-performing countries have pointed to the conclusion that the mathematics curriculum in the United States must become substantially more focused and coherent in order to improve mathematics achievement in this country. To deliver on the promise of common standards, the standards…

What Works Clearinghouse, 2007
"Transition Mathematics" aims to increase 7th- through 12th-grade students' skills in applied arithmetic, pre-algebra, and pre-geometry. This one-year curriculum also addresses general application to different wordings of problems, types of numbers, and contexts for problems and aims to promote mathematical reading skills. The curriculum…

What Works Clearinghouse, 2007
The What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) looked at elementary school math curricula designed to promote math knowledge and skills among elementary school students (average ages 5 to 10 years). Curricula included in this review are replicable, materials-based instructional programs that cover one or more of the following content areas: numbers,…

Loyd, Brenda H.; Sebastian, Ken – 1984
It has been suggested that males perform better than females in mathematics after ninth grade because more males than females enroll in advanced mathematics courses in high school. However, factors other than enrollment may be involved. Therefore, this study investigated whether the performance of males (B=500) and females (N=500) was different in…

Hanna, Gila – Ontario Mathematics Gazette, 1990
A study analyzed data from the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement survey of 13 year olds from 20 countries to examine gender differences in mathematics achievement. Multivariate analysis indicated differences varied from country to country and a significant difference in favor of boys in geometry achievement.…

Wojcik, Patricia A. – 1990
In this practicum students' (n=27) learning styles were used to develop teaching lessons and strategies that would improve mathematics learning in a second grade classroom. Each child's learning style was determined through the Swassing-Barbe Modality Index (SBMI). Pretests for mathematics concepts were given. Each concept was then taught…
