Mathematics education is compulsory in most secondary curriculums around the globe and is a critical discipline among the STEM subjects. Therefore, as a subject that is highly practical in multiple fields and curriculum subjects, developing mathematical instructional approaches that enhance mathematics education is necessary. This study…

Streaming is a divisive pedagogy in New Zealand due to the varied definitions of streaming, the ways streaming is perceived to influence the educational experience of young people, and the complexity of teaching students at a range of achievement levels. This article aims to gain an understanding of secondary school mathematics teachers'…

South Africa has been battling with the poor performance of learners in Mathematics for a long time, with the Eastern Cape province being the worst-performing province. The Department of Education and other educational stakeholders have embarked on a journey of searching for solutions. Some of these include the use of Information communication…

This research aims to enhance mathematical proficiency and stimulate creative thinking among 10th-grade students through the implementation of the 5E Inquiry-Based Learning approach with Supplementary Media. The study explores the effectiveness of this pedagogical approach in transforming the learning experience and outcomes in mathematics…

An asset-based perspective on math education means starting with what students already know instead of focusing on what is missing. This approach elevates student thinking and reasoning skills. In this way, educators acknowledge that all students bring prior experiences, strengths, talents, and resources to the learning process and can contribute…

In teaching bi/multilingual students, translanguaging underscores "what students know and can do (speak two languages) instead of what they do not know (English)" (Phakeng & Moschkovich, 2013, p. 125). Employing translanguaging strategies in the mathematics classroom can create an inclusive learning environment that values students'…

The purpose of this study is to form the arithmetic musical competency of students on the basis of Al-Farabi's theoretical musical heritage. In this context, the work "The Great Book of Music" is of great importance. In this work, he gives not only a scientific explanation of the origin of sounds as properties of matter, but also gives…

An international comparative study of mathematics textbooks is essential in identifying trends in international mathematics education, developing textbooks and improving the quality of teaching and learning in mathematics. This study analyses and compares the contents of the probability and statistics curricula in the high school textbooks of…

Creating and developing mathematical models to solve real-world problems is a complex task and students often have difficulties in tackling it successfully. The design and implementation of sequences that help students autonomously develop their ability to solve modelling tasks could be a useful scaffolding tool to foster modelling learning. In…

We consider the following hypothesis: whereas, the institutions in charge of the teaching of mathematics for future professional mathematicians (IPM, in short) share a "didactic paradigm" (strongly based on logical arguments), there does not seem to be such a thing in secondary mathematics education. In this work, we analyse the notion…

The Tchokwe people lived on the African continent, in Mozambique and Angola. The sona belong to their cultural tradition. The sona are drawings made in the sand by older members of the tribe to tell stories, essential in the youngests' formation. In this article, we show a relationship between the sona and the greatest common divisor (GCD) of two…

This research aimed to develop and evaluate a gamified learning game using the Kid-Bright board to teach introductory coding skills for controlling lamps and fans to 12th-grade students. The study employed a mixed-methods approach, involving the design and development of the game based on gamification principles, followed by an evaluation by three…

This study explores indigenous pedagogical methods for teaching geometry in three secondary schools within the Kalomo District of Zambia. The study addresses three primary objectives: (1) exploring the utilization of Indigenous pedagogical methods in teaching geometry, (2) assessing the impact of integrating traditional knowledge on student…

Informed by a cultural understanding of human sense-making, the mathematical identities of Grades 7-12 learners, teachers, and conventional curricula are explored. Due to a clash of values between mathematics and the humanities, a majority of learners do not achieve their mathematical potential. This frustrates both these learners and their…

The persistence of a 120 year-old mathematics curriculum despite dramatic changes in society (Dossey et al., 2016; NCTM, 2018) and the failure of the US mathematics education system to achieve many of its stated aims, especially for students from traditionally marginalized populations (Attridge & Inglis, 2013; Carnevale & Desrochers,…
