Perseverance is critical for students' achievement and may be particularly important after COVID-19. This paper includes analyses of teacher and principal interviews and student educational technology usage data to examine students' perseverance during math problem-solving across three cohorts of students during and after COVID-19. Data were…

Building activities can be used any time in the school year in mathematics classes to promote problem solving, perseverance, and to develop students' spatial thinking. Spatial visualization skills are the "ability to mentally manipulate, rotate, twist, or invert a pictorially presented stimulus object." The authors were guided by the…

Problem-solving competency is crucial for social development, especially in complex environments. In mathematics education, problem-solving enhances logic, creativity, and analytical skills, contributing to societal progress. This article identified quantitative information about important publications, authors, resources, and research trends on…

The COVID-19 pandemic compelled higher education institutions to adopt an alternative approach to learning. For mathematics education, supporting students through blended learning has become increasingly important as it will ensure students' learning is sustained in such a situation. This practical change has illuminated how cloud technology can…

This paper explores the impact of a tailored working memory training program on the mathematics achievement of secondary school students in Myanmar. While previous studies have investigated the relationship between working memory and mathematics, this study focuses on a context where computerized training programs are limited. Twelve Grade 8…

Mathematics is one of the essential subjects for students because it focuses more on the ability to remember, memorize, and interpret. In addition, gamification in mathematics is excellent since it promotes critical and creative problem-solving and enhances children's metacognitive abilities. This experimental study investigates the impact of…

Background: Mindfulness practices enhance executive function skills and academic achievement, spurring interest in integrating mindfulness interventions into education. Embedding mindfulness practice into a digital math game may provide a low-cost, scalable way to induce mindfulness and boost game-based learning, yet this approach remains…

In this paper, we introduce novel instructional approaches to engage students in using modelling with data to motivate and teach differential equations. Specifically, we introduce a pedagogical framework that will execute instructional modules to teach different solution techniques for differential equations through repositories and notebook…

This exploratory study investigated the behaviors and content of onscreen calculator usage by a nationally representative sample of eighth-grade students who responded to items from the 2017 National Assessment of Educational Progress mathematics assessment. Meaningful features were generated from the process data to infer whether students…

In this study, the effect of using on-screen calculators on eighth grade students' performance on two TIMSS 2019 Problem Solving and Inquiry Tasks items considered as examples of technology-enhanced items administered on computers was examined. For this purpose, three logistic regression models were run where the dependent variables were giving a…

As digital technologies become a commonplace in mathematics classrooms, they transform the ways students and teachers interact with mathematics. Students learn to use a technological tool for solving mathematical tasks through a process known as instrumental genesis. Teachers' support for this process is known as instrumental orchestration. In…

The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of Realistic Mathematics Education Strategies Mobile App (REMSAM) on the mathematical problem solving performance of students with learning disabilities (LD). The participants of this study consisted of five children (three girls, two boys) with LD. The study was carried out based on a…

In designing an intelligent tutoring system, a core area of the application of AI in education, tips from the system or virtual tutors are crucial in helping students solve difficult questions in disciplines like mathematics. Traditionally, the manual design of general tips by teachers is time-consuming and error-prone. Generative AI, like…

Prior work has established that cognitive and perceptual processes influence students' attention to notational structures in mathematical expressions, which in turn affects their problem-solving approaches and performance. Advances in educational technology provide opportunities to further investigate these processes, improve student learning, and…

To efficiently solve mathematical expressions and equations, students need to notice the systemic structure of mathematical expressions (e.g., inverse relation between 3 and 3 in 3 + 5 - 3). We examined how symbols--specifically variables versus numbers--and students' algebraic knowledge impacted seventh graders' problem-solving strategies and use…
