Mathematics teachers are continuously looking for ways to improve student learning. New or modified classroom strategies can help teachers reach these goals to increase student achievement, motivation, and confidence in their abilities. The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of students working as collaborative pairs in high school…

This report discusses findings based on responses to a request for information (RFI) led by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and Digital Promise, which received nearly 200 responses that described a variety of innovative approaches to leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) for mathematics teaching and learning. As AI becomes increasingly…

This paper explores magical realism as a theoretical lens for analysing mathematics classrooms. Traditional frameworks often overlook the complexities of teaching and learning, focusing solely on measurable aspects. Inspired by magical realism -- a literary genre blending the fantastical and the everyday -- I propose a new perspective on how…

This study seeks to evaluate the learning outcomes mentioned in the Mathematics Curriculum of the 5th grade students in Türkiye, based on certain criteria. The general survey model was adopted in the study. The study group consists of 44 mathematics teachers from 12 different regions of Türkiye who, during the 2022-2023 academic year, worked in…

This study examines the impact of the linguistic transition from Arabic to French on the comprehension of mathematical concepts among first-year middle school students in Morocco. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the research analyzes student performance in identifying quadrilaterals and calculating their area and perimeter in both languages.…

This study focused on automaticity, or the choices we make without conscious thought. Specifically, the study examined how math teachers improved their understanding of the practice and evolution of culturally responsive teaching by analyzing the lived experiences and metacognition of practicing middle school teachers as they assess student work…

Coming from the commognitive standpoint, we consider proof-based mathematics as a distinct discourse, the transition to which requires special rules for endorsement and rejection of mathematical statements. In this study, we investigate newcomers' learning of these rules when being taught them explicitly. Our data come from academically motivated…

Completion of remedial mathematics has been identified as one of the keys to college success. However, completion rates in remedial mathematics have been low and are of much debate across America. This study leverages machine learning techniques in trying to predict and understand completion rates in remedial mathematics. The purpose of this study…

Recent reform efforts to center issues of equity and social justice in mathematics classrooms have been under fire from the loudest sectors of right-wing media. The hysteria around incorporating social justice issues in mathematics classrooms is captured in the artificial binary: STEM or CRT. In our paper, we examine resistance to reform efforts…

The importance of mathematical connections in teaching mathematics is broadly acknowledged in the literature. Nevertheless, more research is needed to clarify how different types of mathematical connections manifest in classroom interactions and how they can support student learning. This article uses the commognitive framework to analyse 15…

In 2024, the Future Directions for Mathematics Education Research, Policy, and Practice convening identified critical areas of need and opportunity for progress in mathematics teaching and learning. Amidst concerns about declining mathematical achievement and persistent disparities in access to high-quality mathematics education, the convening…

A common educational assumption is that coherence is a pre-requisite for a "good" curriculum. Indeed, in mathematics education this perspective has persisted both nationally and internationally as a foundational principle for curriculum design, reform, and evaluation. While curricular coherence is often unquestioningly accepted as…

This is the third in a series of articles describing CODAP and where it might be used to address content in the "Australian Curriculum: Mathematics" v9.0 (ACARA, 2022). We've talked before about model-ling and about statistics; this time, we'll talk about exploring probability using CODAP. As before, we have also prepared online pages…

A growing body of literature examines the use of rehearsals with preservice mathematics teachers, but research on rehearsals with experienced mathematics teachers is in its infancy. There is some evidence, however, that rehearsal debrief discussions can be valuable learning experiences for practicing teachers. Experienced teachers bring a rich set…

Word problem solving is the premise for students to generalize their problem solving skills to real world problems. This includes students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID). Modified Schema-based Instruction (MSBI) is one strategy that research has shown is effective for teaching students with ASD/ID to acquire…
