Nadia M. Theba; Craig Pournara; Shikha Takker – Pythagoras, 2024
Developing structure sense is an important part of learning algebra. We investigated learners' structure sense of algebraic expressions involving brackets. This led us to propose the constructs "surface structure" sense and "systemic structure" sense. Using a random sample of 58 Grade 10 learners scoring above 40% in a test, we…

Kim, Sun A.; Bryant, Diane P.; Bryant, Brian R.; Shin, Mikyung; Ok, Min Wook – Remedial and Special Education, 2023
The effects of whole number computation interventions among school students with learning disabilities in Grades K to 5 were examined using a multilevel meta-analysis. Applying a correlated and hierarchical effect model of robust variance estimation, we examined the intervention effects among 15 peer-reviewed articles and dissertations (two…

Erik Jacobson – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2024
This study used units coordination as a theoretical lens to investigate how whole number and fraction reasoning may be related for preservice teachers at the conclusion of a math methods class. The study contributes quantitative evidence that units coordination provides a common foundation for both mathematical knowledge for teaching whole number…

Thevenot, Catherine; Tazouti, Youssef; Billard, Catherine; Dewi, Jasinta; Fayol, Michel – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
Background: In several countries, children's math skills have been declining at an alarming rate in recent years and decades, and one of the explanations for this alarming situation is that children have difficulties in establishing the relations between arithmetical operations. Aim: In order to address this question, our goal was to determine the…

Erdem, Emrullah – Educational Research Quarterly, 2022
The present study aimed to examine the opinions of in-and preservice middle school mathematics teachers about teaching four operations with integers through "number line" and/or "counters". Participants were 42 middle school mathematics teachers and 51 pre-service mathematics teachers. The data were collected through open-ended…

Yavuzsoy Kose, Nilufer; Kiziltoprak, Ayhan – Eurasian Journal of Educational Research, 2020
Purpose: Since there are a limited number of studies on how to develop relational thinking in secondary school students in mathematics education literature, this study will contribute to the field both in theoretical terms and concerning the implications for in-class applications. In this respect, this study aims to examine how to develop the…

Nurnberger-Haag, Julie; Kratky, Joseph; Karpinski, Aryn C. – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2022
Skills and understanding of operations with negative numbers, which are typically taught in middle school, are crucial aspects of numerical competence necessary for all subsequent mathematics. To more swiftly and coherently develop the field's understanding of how to foster this critical competence, we need shared measures that allow us to compare…

Quane, Kate; Brown, Leni – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2022
Mathematics educators and researchers have advocated for the use of manipulatives to teach mathematics for decades. The purpose of this article is to provide illustrative uses of a readily available manipulative rather than a complete list. From an Australian perspective, Pop-it fidget toys can be used across the mathematics curriculum. This paper…

Hong, Jon-Chao; Hwang, Ming-Yueh; Tsai, Chi-Ruei; Tai, Kai-Hsin; Wu, Yu-Feng – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2020
According to social dilemma theory, students may be characterized as being indifferent to reciprocal behavior and disengaged from interacting with the board gaming process. Given a common goal, students' prosociality can affect the collective efficacy and goal achievement motivation that reflects their flow experience in a cooperative-competitive…

Üzel, Devrim – Universal Journal of Educational Research, 2018
This study reports errors and misconceptions about division operation in fractions made by eighth-grade students. To investigate these errors and misconceptions, the study examined students' understanding of division operation in fractions using a questionnaire and expectation table. Students' misconceptions were determined for each question and…

Brave, Kathryn Lavin; McMullen, Mary; Martin, Cecile – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2021
During a time when students are accessing instruction virtually because of COVID-19, reflecting on the sixth of the Standards for Mathematical Practice (SMP 6) is a vital step for educators to take. Although the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (NGA Center and CCSSO 2010) identifies SMP 6 as Attend to precision, associated expertise…

Taff, Jason – Mathematics Teacher, 2017
In this article, Jason Taff shares an approach that he presented to advanced seventh-grade prealgebra students. He begins by summarizing some of the shortcomings of equating the order of operations concept with the PEMDAS (often rendered mnemonically as "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally") procedure with the hope of helping teachers at…

Schifter, Deborah; Bastable, Virginia; Russell, Susan Jo – National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, 2018
The "Reasoning Algebraically about Operations Casebook" was developed as the key resource for participants' Developing Mathematical Ideas seminar experience. The thirty-four cases, written by teachers describing real situations and actual student thinking in their classrooms, provide the basis of each session's investigation into the…

Braithwaite, David W.; Siegler, Robert S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
Fraction arithmetic is among the most important and difficult topics children encounter in elementary and middle school mathematics. Braithwaite, Pyke, and Siegler (2017) hypothesized that difficulties learning fraction arithmetic often reflect reliance on associative knowledge--rather than understanding of mathematical concepts and procedures--to…
