Background/purpose: Several previous studies have attempted to develop Android learning media for elementary students beginning to learn counting. However, no media with a levelled adventure theme exists. The purpose of this research is to develop an android-based learning media, B'Math, to improve elementary students' counting skills.…

This study used a mixed-methods approach to explore the impact of a fraction intervention on 46 sixth-grade students, including 13 with learning disabilities. Twenty-four students were enrolled in the classroom that received intervention, the remaining students participated in standard instruction. The intervention focused on sorting visual…

Although the impact of remote education during the pandemic on executive functions and mathematical skills has been extensively studied, few studies have examined its effect on pre-school education. Our study aimed to compare the executive and mathematical performance of preschoolers during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 122…

The purpose of this mixed-methods study was to investigate how generative AI tools, particularly ChatGPT, impact preservice teachers' lesson plans and attitudes toward mathematics. Fifty-five undergraduate students who were enrolled in their first semester of a teacher education program participated in the study. Each student created two lesson…

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'…

This article presents a set of "work-sharing routines," which teachers can use to broaden their repertoire of using student work, with an eye toward cultivating students' belonging. The authors define work-sharing as using actual mathematical student work, ideally from students in the class, to facilitate learning. Although there are…

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…

Research suggests that collaborative learning may enhance the benefits to learners when solving cognitively demanding tasks. However, there are concerns about how students with different achievement and engagement levels perceive these benefits. This study examines how students with varying achievement and engagement levels respond to…

This study seeks to understand the experiences of a teacher who has participated in professional learning that focuses on the values, beliefs, and enjoyment that primary school teachers experience about mathematics teaching. Using a quantitative ethnography methodology, an epistemic network analysis was applied to understand these changes…

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…

Traditional mathematics teaching approaches result in inequitable outcomes for students outside the dominant community. One reason for this is a school system that prioritises overly narrow ways of knowing, being and doing. One example of this is a teaching approach that prioritises very specific learning goals and highly structured lessons that…

This study explores variations in prospective teachers' (PTs') noticing of students' mathematical thinking based on narrative writing within the context of a practicum course. The research involved eight PTs, each of whom produced ten weekly narratives throughout the course duration. Most PTs displayed noticing abilities within the average range,…

This study aims to examine pre-service elementary mathematics teachers' knowledge of quadrilaterals and evaluate their understanding within the framework of Van Hiele's Geometric Thinking Levels. In particular, the study investigates how pre-service teachers define quadrilaterals and establish relationships between different types of…

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…
