Integers present a global challenge for students due to their abstract nature and complex operations. To delve into the challenge students encountered, error analysis served as an alternative method to investigate errors diagnostically. This study aimed to explore error patterns related to integer addition and subtraction among seventh-grade…

In the post-pandemic world, metaverse technology has become a popular approach to facilitating students' online learning experiences. Drawing on Kolb's experiential learning theory, we created immersive scenes using CoSpaces Edu, a 'mirror-world' metaverse platform that enables students to observe mathematical properties virtually. We applied a…

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…

Each student's effort is an important factor in achievement. Mathematics is an important subject for business students since there is a strong connection between performance in mathematics and success in business courses. The purpose of this paper is to identify the factors influencing a student's choice of how much effort to put into studying…

Higher education institutions are responsible for delivering university-level mathematical knowledge to prospective mathematics teachers in a manner relevant to their future professional practice for teaching a core competency of 4C skills. The ability to teach these skills in the mathematics classroom is demanded by educational reform in the 21st…

The study aims to define the processes of pre-service mathematics teachers in reaching spatial visualisation generalisations within the context of drawing surface nets of solids. Two theories, Polya's problem-solving steps and novice-to-expert problem-solving schemas, were used as reference frameworks to describe the participants' spatial…

Digital modules typically refer to self-contained units of online learning materials designed for specific topics or learning objectives. The researcher developed digital modules for three specific math units and conducted a three-week experiment in six schools in three districts of Punjab. The purpose of the study was to find the effectiveness of…

The adequate preparation of future teachers of mathematics is critical, requiring sufficient opportunities to develop both pedagogical skill and content knowledge. Yet, despite new recommendations for mathematics teacher preparation, we know little about the landscape of course-based learning opportunities in US elementary teacher education…

Integrating literacy in science and mathematics learning and teaching has been an ongoing endeavour. There are frameworks developed to guide teachers' practices, but little is reported on assessing literacy simultaneously with scientific or mathematical content knowledge. We reviewed the literature on assessing literacy in science and mathematics…

A new course development is intended for students to investigate the intersection of mathematics with seemingly disparate areas of art, music, architecture, and nature. The course is designed to allow students to explore the hidden connections between the aesthetic pleasures of art, music and nature and that of mathematical foundations and how the…

Background/Context: As part of a national movement to eliminate a global tracking system that disproportionately assigned underserved students to low-level math classes, the Chicago Public Schools (CPS) mandated academic algebra for all students entering high school in 1997. The results were disappointing: low-skill students experienced elevated…

Culturally responsive and sustaining education (CRSE) in mathematics aims to bridge students' home and school lives. When educators draw on the skills, knowledge, and practices of students' families and communities, they can foster learning and belonging in schools. This brief addresses the need to navigate power dynamics and shift mindsets and…

The effectiveness of Tier 2 interventions may depend on the variability of student skills within an intervention group. We investigated the effect of initial variability within intervention groups using data from a large-scale study of ROOTS, a Tier 2 kindergarten mathematics intervention. Our research questions were as follows: Does mathematics…

The effectiveness of Tier 2 interventions may depend on the variability of student skills within an intervention group. We investigated the effect of pretest variability within intervention groups using data from a large-scale study of ROOTS, a Tier 2 kindergarten mathematics intervention. Our research questions were as follows: Does mathematics…

Mathematics learning in higher education today focuses on the need to enhance students' diverse creativity through learning process. To address this challenge, this study introduces the Differentiated Instruction based on Lateral Thinking Techniques (D-LTT) framework. It provides an overview of D-LTT, demonstrates its application in a numerical…
