The National Learning Camp (NLC) serves as the national recovery program of the Philippine Department of Education (DepEd) using a camp-like learning experience. Hence, learning materials were distributed to the students, and teacher-student interaction was limited to forty-five minutes, insufficient to cover all required lessons. So, teacher-made…

Background: As highly interactive hands-on learning tools, robots can inspire new generations of mathematics students. However, to date, no comprehensive systematic reviews have been conducted on robot-assisted mathematics education from K-12 through higher education. Hence, it is important to explore the research evidence of robot-assisted…

Children are having fewer embodied social interactions outside (Haidt, 2024). Thus, there is a need to create embodied activities that turn students' attention to each other and nature (Barwell et al., 2022) and that build from their interests (Frankenstein & Powell, 2023). Using a socio-ecological framework that centers on relationships among…

This research was conducted to examine the views of preschool teachers regarding out-of-school learning environments for mathematics activities and their usage of these environments. The research was conducted out using a phenomenological design, one of the qualitative research methods. The study group consisted of 42 preschool teachers working in…

As online spaces for mathematics content and lesson plans become more accessible, teachers are exploring these websites to make decisions about instructional materials for their courses. These resources then have an impact on what is enacted in the classroom and what opportunities students have to learn mathematics. One of the most popular online…

Research has well documented the opportunities and benefits of connecting mathematics instruction with children's literature. One approach to achieving this is through stories that weave mathematical content into creative and engaging narratives. This paper examines the K-2 Mathical Book Prize winners and honorees as texts with significant…

Problem-solving is a key aspect of mathematics instruction. Although it is part of several national curricula, its implementation is still being vastly explored. The present research, which is part of a larger project, aimed to investigate the effect of using problem-oriented instruction in grade 3 of primary school on students' mathematical…

Mathematics curriculums worldwide are being refined to prepare students for the twenty-first century by focusing on developing students' higher-level thinking skills. As a result, teachers need to adjust their pedagogical approaches to enact new curriculums, which is frequently facilitated through continued professional development (CPD). During…

Background: Evaluating beliefs is essential, as the concept has a significant influence on mathematics learning in the classroom. Therefore, this research aimed to provide an instrument for assessing beliefs regarding mathematics teaching and learning. Methods: The survey consisted of 311 females and 96 males, totaling 407 respondents, and a…

Achieving proficiency in fundamental differential calculus concepts remains a persistent challenge for grade 12 students, raising concerns among mathematics teachers and policymakers. Despite the widely acknowledged applications of differential calculus across diverse disciplines, global examination diagnostic reports consistently highlight…

Background/purpose. One of the current problems facing mathematics students, graduates in mathematics, and engineering is the disconnection between the meanings, symbolic representations, and graphics of derivatives when solving problems, which hinders their understanding. This article analyzes engineering students' understanding activated by…

The gap between theory and practice in mathematics education, particularly in primary-teacher education, necessitates innovative teaching methodologies. This paper explores the implementation of academic portfolios as a teaching innovation in algebra and number systems I and algebra and number systems II courses within the primary teacher…

This study examines factors shaping teachers' instructions of mathematical proof in Singapore. Using a qualitative case study, two teachers' conceptions, beliefs, and challenges were analysed. Findings reveal reliance on empirical and axiomatic proof schemes, shaping instruction. Teachers faced challenges such as limited curriculum emphasis and…

Background: Performance in fraction word problems in primary school indicates that learners face challenges when working with fraction word problems, despite their frequent use of textbooks as learning materials. Aim: This article presents a comparative analysis of three commonly used Grade 6 mathematics textbooks, with the objective of evaluating…

The current research implemented the Predict Observe and Explain (POE) instructional approach in mathematics and examined its efficacy in enhancing students' understanding of functions in terms of their ability to connect algebraic and graphical representations in optimization problems. Two grade 11 classes (40 students in total) and two grade 10…
