A number of areas of difficulty in basic numeracy and mathematical skills were identified, which hinder students' success in a foundational biochemistry course. Many students have difficulty with the concepts of pH and buffers (requiring proficiency with logarithms) and enzyme kinetics (requiring algebraic manipulations and graphing). The…

By reframing the mathematics test and developing a structure for evaluation, teachers can foster future success in the mathematics classroom.

This article is the second and final part of the twin papers entitled "Social Media Usage Among University Students of Mathematics Education in Zambia". The background of this study is anchored on the fact that the implementation and integration of social media technologies particularly in the learning and teaching of Mathematics has…

Bahasinan is a traditional game, a maritime cultural heritage, which still exists today in the area of South Kalimantan, Indonesia, precisely in the village of Gunung Makmur. Bahasinan itself is a traditional game that should be played in groups. In Bahasinan, people can find many aspects that have strong correlation with the learning of…

This paper is an outcome of using GeoGebra in Nepal's grade ten math curriculum (CDC, 2015). Based on a teaching experiment as one of the research methodologies (Dahal, 2019; Dahal et al., 2019; Dahal et al., 2022a), this paper provides students with active learning environments and the possibility of integrating GeoGebra as an ICT application by…

This study explores the effectiveness of the GeoGebra on Grade 12 students' success in making associations between the representations of trigonometric functions and the interpretation of graphs. A technology-oriented classroom is a commanding and accommodating tool in mathematics instruction in understanding mathematical concepts. A…

The algebraic structure is one of the axiomatic mathematical materials that consists of definitions and theorems. Learning algebraic structure will facilitate the development of logical reasoning, hence facilitating the study of other aspects of axiomatic mathematics. Even with this, several researchers say a lack of algebraic structure sense is a…

Research in mathematics education has shown that individuals' beliefs play a fundamental role in their responses to and interest in mathematics and their application of these beliefs in real-life situations. Although the literature related to the affective domain in general, and beliefs, has explored the relationship between beliefs and student…

The need to develop consistent theoretical frameworks for the teaching and learning of discrete mathematics, specifically of graph theory, has attracted the attention of the researchers in mathematics education. Responding to this demand, the scope of the Van Hiele model has been extended to the field of graphs through a proposal of four levels of…

Biological systems exhibit strong dynamic variations; for example, a system may have a tendency towards either a steady state, periodic behaviour or chaotic oscillations. These findings, explained by dynamic systems theory, have allowed researchers to formally relate a wide variety of systems, such as the theory of rumour propagation, glucose…

This study aimed to investigate the impact of inquiry-based indoor and outdoor mathematics activities on pre-school children's geometric and spatial thinking skills. Thirty-two children between 48 and 66 months old participated in the study. The study employed as a quasi-experimental research model and employed Non-equivalent Control Group Design.…

The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of co-teaching versus inclusive non-co-teaching for students with disabilities (SWD) using algebra I end-of-course scores (EOC) and whether these effects differed by gender. Participants included 244 ninth-grade algebra I SWD. The research design consisted of a posttest only with a…

We characterize the thematic trends of the "Geometry and its Applications Meeting." This meeting is held periodically in Colombia, country in which our study was carried out. We used a taxonomy of key terms specific to mathematics education to code the proceedings of this meeting. The study variables are purpose, educational level,…

Literature suggests that students need to be exposed to cognitively demanding tasks (CDT). In this qualitative study, we examined in-service secondary school teachers' challenges in understanding (e.g. recognizing, solving, and designing) and implementing cognitively demanding tasks in mathematics classrooms. Purposive sampling consisted of eleven…

Two of every three students in the classroom today are affected by at least one adverse childhood experience (ACE; Perfect et al., 2016). Recently, researchers have used a neurodevelopmental approach to try to categorize and describe the connection between the neurological, cognitive, and academic success of children with ACEs and may have…
