Seda Nur Akkan; Tugba Horzum – Journal of Pedagogical Research, 2024
This systematic review examines 31 articles published from 2000 to 2021, comprehensively addressing mathematical resilience. These articles originate from English-language journals indexed in Google Scholar, Web of Science, ERIC, and Scopus databases. The analysis considered specific aspects including years, countries, research methods, designs,…

Weingarden, Merav; Heyd-Metzuyanim, Einat – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2023
In this study, we examine "what went wrong" in our professional development program for encouraging cognitively demanding instruction, focusing on the difficulties we encountered in using an observational tool for evaluating this type of instruction and reaching inter-rater reliability. We do so through the lens of a discursive theory of…

Marmur, Ofer; Koichu, Boris – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2023
This paper explores student emotion and learning experiences fostered by lecturing-style instruction in Real-Analysis problem-centered lessons. We focus on two lessons that were taught by two reputable instructors and involved challenging, mathematically-related problems the students did not understand. Nonetheless, one lesson evoked negative…

Diane S. Lindquist; Brenda E. Sparrow; Joseph M. Lindquist – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2024
The retention of fundamental mathematical skills is imperative to provide a foundation on which new skills are developed. Educators often lament about student retention. Cognitive scientists and educators have explored teaching methods that produce learning which endures over time. We wanted to know if using spaced recall quizzes would prevent our…

Jennifer M. Tobias; Neet Priya Bajwa – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2024
After years of noticing the challenge our students have with fraction operations, we decided to implement a scaffold approach that focuses on using benchmarks to better develop both students' understanding of a fraction as a quantity and their ability to think about fraction operations meaningfully. While we found this approach supported students…

Jonas Weyers; Johannes König; Thorsten Scheiner; Rossella Santagata; Gabriele Kaiser – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2024
The teacher noticing construct is widely recognized in teacher competence and education research, particularly in the field of mathematics education. This paper surveys recent research on mathematics teacher noticing published between July 2019 and 2022, following an earlier literature review on teacher noticing across different disciplines. The…

Nawang Sulistyani; Yoppy Wahyu Purnomo; Sugiman Sugiman; Mohammad Archi Maulyda – REDIMAT - Journal of Research in Mathematics Education, 2025
This research explores the impact of ethno-RME on students' thinking processes in solving decimal number operations in Tugu Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The study involved 32 grade 4 students and used three data collection techniques: task provision, cognitive interviews, and documentation. The qualitative data was analyzed using cross-sectional data…

Merav Weingarden – Research in Mathematics Education, 2024
The importance of mathematical connections in teaching mathematics is broadly acknowledged in the literature. Nevertheless, more research is needed to clarify how different types of mathematical connections manifest in classroom interactions and how they can support student learning. This article uses the commognitive framework to analyse 15…

Karavi, Thomais; Mali, Angeliki; Avraamidou, Lucy – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2022
In this position paper, we propose commognition for the study of proof teaching at university lectures through an integrative literature review. We critically examine studies that focused on proof teaching but did not use the commognitive framework. Through this examination, we gain an understanding of the pedagogical aspects of proof teaching and…

Rahman, Zareen Gul – Educational Forum, 2023
Mathematics pre-service teachers (PSTs) need opportunities to learn best practices in teaching mathematics, e.g., productive struggle. Productive struggle happens when students work through challenging problems that are not straightforward. This paper describes mathematics PSTs' engagement with productive struggle in a mathematics methods course.…

Sabine Apfler – Discourse and Communication for Sustainable Education, 2024
Children and young people live in a world that is constantly changing. In order to master their lives successfully, they will need many skills and competences. These include mathematical competences, which they should build up from primary school age. This article deals with the question of how mathematics lessons should be designed in order to…

Rini Utami; Setiyani; Mohammad Dadan Sundawan; Sri Sumarwati; Ferry Ferdianto – Journal of Education and Learning (EduLearn), 2025
The learning of mathematics generally undergoes a less effective and less appealing learning process, resulting in students' perceived lack of mastery of the material. Consequently, students' insufficient understanding of the concepts leads to a lack of folding back. In the process of understanding, it influences individual characteristics, where…

Joona Moberg; Minna Hannula-Sormunen; Markus Hähkiöniemi; Erno Lehtinen – Frontline Learning Research, 2025
Teachers play a key role in promoting flexible mathematical thinking in society. There is a growing need to develop better methods for both pre- and in-service teacher training, but not enough is so far understood about what knowledge and skills teachers use in practical teaching situations. The means for investigating this are few. A new analytic…

Schukajlow, Stanislaw; Kaiser, Gabriele; Stillman, Gloria – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2023
Mathematical modeling and applications are an important part of curriculum and considered to be important for students' current and future lives. In this contribution, we focus on mathematical modeling from a cognitive prospective. Following embedding the cognitive perspective within the discourse of mathematical modeling, we describe some of the…

Paul Evans; Andrew J. Martin – Educational Psychology, 2023
This study aimed to understand the role of load reduction instruction (LRI), a framework of instructional strategies designed to reduce cognitive load, and its association with motivation, engagement, and learning outcomes in mathematics. We examined data from 221 students from 39 classrooms and tested a hypothesised longitudinal multilevel model.…
