Educational stakeholders in Brunei are not exempted from the search for innovative instructional approaches as a tool to stem the tide of poor performance of students in mathematics. This study was designed to contribute to this national project by examining the impact of a digital escape game intervention on students' mathematics performance and…

The goal of the study is to examine a comprehensive review of research involving augmented reality (AR) in mathematics teaching during the previous 10 years. For this purpose, the research was conducted using a systematic review technique. It synthesized a set of 60 articles from 2012 to 2021. Two researchers used content analysis to analyze the…

Several studies have been conducted in recent years into the effects of gamification on learner motivation. However, little is known about how learner profiles affect the impact of specific game elements. This article analyzes the effect of a gamified mathematic learning environment on the motivation and the motivated behaviors of 258 learners in…

The motivation for learning mathematics is an essential factor in predicting the performance of secondary school students. Students who are intrinsically or extrinsically motivated to learn mathematics generally demonstrate higher performance than others who are not motivated. However, a properly designed instrument for the measurement of this…

Maintaining learning engagement throughout adolescence is critical for long-term academic success. This research sought to understand the role of metacognition and motivation in predicting adolescents' engagement in math learning over time. In two longitudinal studies with 2,325 and 207 adolescents (ages 11-15), metacognitive skills, interest, and…

Our research aimed to identify factors of motivation and affect to best characterize upper secondary mathematics students and correlations between these factors. This work is based on personas, a tool from user experience research for representing the needs and characteristics of users of a system, developed in prior research. In the present…

Utilizing the Programme for International Student Assessment 2012 Shanghai dataset (N=5,177), this study examined the relationship between school disciplinary climate aggregated from mathematics classrooms and student mathematics learning outcomes, including mathematics achievement and intrinsic and instrumental motivation to learn mathematics,…

Adapting learning to the level and preferences of learners and game-based learning have increasingly received much attention. The current study examined whether learning styles based on the Felder-Silverman classification (perception, input, processing and organization of information) influence learning in GBL. Only the input and processing scales…

In this article, we will describe the embedded case study of the European project "E-Magic" carried out within the Erasmus+ project and which involved 12-16 years old students and teachers from three nations: "Acharnes Special Education Vocational School" in Athens (Greece), IIS "L. Da VinciNitti", a high school in…

This volume of PISA examines the readiness of students to engage with learning strategies, to be motivated to learn and to be confident in their abilities and in their capacity to improve their skills and knowledge. Countries like Korea have reduced mathematics anxiety, Portugal excels in critical thinking, and more low-performing students in…

Interest is one of the most important components for a successful teaching/ learning process; unfortunately, nowadays students' interest in science and mathematics is decreasing. The aim of the research is to explore the cognitive interest of 15-yearold students in science and mathematics. Students in Latvia and Lithuania participated in the…

625 primary and secondary students from schools in Melbourne and Geelong completed the WIFI Questionnaire to nominate what they valued in their mathematics learning. A content analysis of students' responses to an open-ended question about what they valued most resulted in a list of 64 unique values. A new, fourth category of values in mathematics…

Cognitive interest is a vital learning motive for the successful learning process. Nowadays students' interest about science and mathematics are decreasing. The aim of the study is to explore the cognitive interest of Grade 9 students in science and mathematics. Students were surveyed and it helped to explore the respondents' cognitive activity…

This paper presents the effects of a cognitive acceleration program in mathematics classes on Tongan students' achievements, motivation and self-regulation. Cognitive Acceleration in Mathematics Education (CAME) is a program developed at King's College and implemented worldwide with the aim of improving students' thinking skills, mathematics…

Mathematics-related affect is told to predict choices concerning future studies, to correlate with performance, and to be of importance per se. Unfortunately, the affect towards mathematics is frequently reported to be low in several countries, and this contradiction cannot be solved before knowing more about its development. The objective of this…
