Tim Gill – Research Matters, 2025
One of the main aims of Core Maths qualifications when they were introduced into the post-16 curriculum in 2014 was to help students develop their understanding of maths and its application to different subject areas, particularly in relation to further study (e.g., higher education). In this article, we explore whether Core Maths is fulfilling…

Jendraszek, Patricia – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2010
Probability is receiving increased coverage in all levels of education. Knowledge of the Law of Large Numbers may be an important factor in developing a true understanding of the subject. Study results evidence a lack of awareness of this fundamental principle among teachers of mathematics. Study results also suggest that additional probability…

Gottfried, Michael A.; Williams, Darryl N. – Education Policy Analysis Archives, 2013
To develop a more robust understanding of the relationship between non-formal, school-based STEM activities and students' success and persistence in STEM fields, this study evaluates how math club participation influences math GPA and how science club participation influences science GPA. Additionally, this study evaluates how math or science club…

Colon-Rosa, Hector Wm. – ProQuest LLC, 2012
Considering the range of changes in the instruction and learning of statistics, several questions emerge regarding how those changes influence students' attitudes. Equally, other questions emerge to reflect that statistics is a fundamental course in the university academic programs because of its relevance to the professional development of the…

Chow, Angela; Salmela-Aro, Katariina – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2011
This study examined what kinds of groups can be identified according to students' task-values across four subject domains (languages, math and science, social sciences, practical subjects) and the related gender differences using a person-centered approach. Latent class analysis was applied to classify 638 students (mean age = 15) into four…

Offenstein, Jeremy; Moore, Colleen; Shulock, Nancy – Institute for Higher Education Leadership & Policy, 2010
The United States is becoming less globally competitive as other nations move aggressively to educate their populations. To lead the world once again in educational attainment--President Obama's goal by 2020--more Americans will need to enter college. But the biggest challenge isn't college going; it is college completion. Around the country,…
