We conducted a literature review to describe the conceptual use of "noticing" in pivotal mathematics and science education publications from 2002 to 2022 by tracing the language and ideas used to describe and study teacher noticing. Results from 12 highly cited or recently written publications indicated substantial differences in the…

The purpose of this study is to investigate different aspects of teachers' orientations toward students' writing in high school mathematics. I used an embedded case study design (Yin, 2018) across the cases of three teachers whose instruction had previously been found to be dialogically focused -- i.e., made use of high-level tasks, presented…

This study explores opportunities to learn definite integrals in three widely used textbooks in the U.S. Definitions, worked examples, and exercise problems were coded using research-based cognitive resources in definite integrals. The results show that limited opportunities for students to explore multiplicative relationship between two…

This study examines the current Turkish primary school 4th-grade Mathematics textbook through the core values settled in the curriculums to mediate relevant (sub)values by the Turkish Board of Education (BoE). The core and sub-values were investigated through the defined aspects of inclusion, intensity, reflection, and mediation status. This…

Many math educators are grappling with ways to make their instruction more culturally responsive to improve their students' feelings of belonging, perceptions of relevance, and academic learning outcomes. To learn more about how to facilitate the application of innovative and promising practices in math classrooms, a continuous improvement…

Large Language Models have recently achieved high performance on many writing tasks. In a recent study, math word problems in Carnegie Learning's MATHia adaptive learning software were rewritten by human authors to improve their clarity and specificity. The randomized experiment found that emerging readers who received the rewritten word problems…

The use of online learning objects in teaching algebra is examined in this research, emphasizing its benefits, such as accessibility, flexibility, interactive involvement, differentiated instruction, quick feedback, and links to real-world situations. Strategies include conceptual comprehension, interactive practice, individualized learning,…

The "remembered success effect" (Finn, 2010) refers to the finding that challenging academic tasks that start or end with extra opportunities for success are often preferred to challenging tasks that do not include these opportunities. Research on the remembered success effect has identified some memory processes that are thought to give…

Does the mathematics course taught with logical reasoning methods have an effect on the success of students in skill-based questions and what are the students' views on teaching? Based on this problem, it was aimed to examine the effect of the mathematics course taught with logical reasoning methods on the success of students in skill-based…

Productive struggle is an effective mathematics teaching practice that provides students opportunities to grapple with challenging mathematical concepts, connect prior knowledge, discover new ideas, and develop their critical thinking skills. Research has documented the benefits of secondary mathematics students engaging in productive struggle.…

Integer arithmetic is difficult for students worldwide. Although students' integer thinking has frequently been studied, little is known about typical instructional practice for this difficult topic. Thus, to investigate what resources teachers use, we surveyed U.S. middle-grade teachers who teach negative numbers. About half the teachers said…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the types of errors grade 10 students make in solving selected trigonometry problems. Another aim was to understand the origins of these errors that Students make when solving trigonometry problems. Another central purpose of the study was to provide instructional recommendations for addressing the…

Teachers' agency in using teaching and learning resources (TLRs) like teachers' guides and learners' textbooks is crucial for developing countries to achieve the sustainable development goal 4 (SDG4) of education quality. I analysed 29 lesson plans and interview data from 6 grade 2 teachers from two schools to examine factors that influence their…

As an interdisciplinary and multicultural educational framework takes the centrality of the delivery of 21st-century education across all levels, this study attempts to address the competencies that prospective and neophyte teachers need to possess to effectively design contextualized education. Through stepwise multiple regression analysis,…

The aim of this study was to examine how pre-service teachers performed in tasks related to three specific aspects of curricular noticing. The participants completed a two-part written task in which they solved three pattern generalization problems and sequenced them for teaching purposes. Inductive content analysis was used to analyze the…
