Currently, there is a rapid development of artificial intelligence systems that can solve and explain the solution of mathematical problems in the same way as students do. The problem of organizing interaction of artificial and human intelligence which does not lead to the degradation of the student's thinking skills arises. The article proposes…

This study describes the experiences of secondary-level mathematics teachers from the Department of Education of Puerto Rico implementing the strategy of contextualized teaching. Qualitative research framed in phenomenology was conducted, collecting data through semi-structured interviews and a review of normative documents from the Department of…

In this paper, we are interested in a dynamic vision of diagrams, focusing on their evocative power, their force in mathematical activity and their potential for interaction with mathematical objects. We are inspired by the work of C. S. Pierce to see diagrams as "inscriptions that organise space and articulate relations" and that of the…

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to gather data to determine whether instructional coaching partnerships can improve teachers' implementation of learned mathematics instructional strategies. Teachers are willing to learn and implement new mathematics strategies after professional development sessions to see better student learning results.…

Developing students' mathematical creativity constitutes a key objective in curricula worldwide. Although teachers recognize their key role in fostering mathematical creativity, research indicates a discrepancy between their beliefs and classroom practices--the "creativity gap". Professional development programs have enhanced teachers'…

The aim of this article is to buid a Guide to the Analysis of Probability Textbook Lessons for secondary education (students aged 12-14), using the framework of Didactic Suitability. The facets, components and indicators of the didactic suitability construct are applied to categorize and organize didactic-mathematical knowledge on teaching and…

This study investigated the role of co-teaching in the development of students' mathematics motivation and achievement. More specifically, we examined how sixth-grade students' (N = 146) mathematics self-concept and individual interest changed over one school year, how these changes were related to each other and to mathematics achievement, and,…

The aim of this study is to reveal the impact of Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) on students' ability to come up with the rules of divisibility themselves and on their academic achievement in the 8th grade Mathematics course as well as to obtain students' views on the learning and teaching process, through the use of a mixed-methods sequential…

This article encourages promoting a sense of belonging in the field of mathematics for children of all backgrounds by using multicultural children's literature to teach the subject. Doing so challenges inequitable structures while also connecting learners authentically to the increasingly diverse world around them, empowering their…

This essential handbook is a must-have for anyone teaching mathematics and statistics in Aotearoa New Zealand, from student teachers to experienced educators. It offers a comprehensive resource for both primary and secondary school teachers, filled with classroom-ready activities designed to engage diverse learners and foster positive mathematics…

In this paper, we discuss our experience in collaborating with mathematicians to increase their use of active learning pedagogy in a proof-based linear algebra course. The mathematicians we worked with valued using active learning pedagogy to increase student engagement but were reluctant to use active learning pedagogy due to time constraints.…

Mathematical induction is a powerful method of proof, taught in most undergraduate programs involving mathematics and in secondary schools in some countries. It is also commonly known to be complex and difficult to comprehend. During the last five decades, mathematics education research has produced numerous studies on the learning and teaching of…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of using Imagine Math Facts on student mathematics proficiency. Methods: This retrospective study compared the performance of Grade 1-5 students who used or did not use the Imagine Math Facts program on a standardized assessment of mathematics proficiency. Statistical matching was…

In his work leading professional development, Peter Klosterman found that teachers specifically asked for help teaching optimisation more effectively. To address challenges students often experience solving optimisation problems, he explains useful pedagogical strategies to support the teaching of optimisation and student learning in this topic.

Gestures are one of the ways in which mathematical cognition is embodied and have been elevated as a potentially important semiotic device in the teaching of mathematics. As such, a better understanding of gestures used during mathematics instruction (including frequency of use, types of gestures, how they are used, and the possible relationship…
