In this study, the effect of using on-screen calculators on eighth grade students' performance on two TIMSS 2019 Problem Solving and Inquiry Tasks items considered as examples of technology-enhanced items administered on computers was examined. For this purpose, three logistic regression models were run where the dependent variables were giving a…

Theoretical frameworks for mathematics teaching and learning technology-supported provide a systematic structure in examining the contribution of the tool to conceptual development. This study examines the processes for the use of spreadsheets and the mathematical development of the participants in the tasks for performing the conversions between…

A large body of research has shown the effectiveness of formative assessment on student learning. Yet research on teachers' implementation of formative assessment is relatively underdeveloped. In addition, there has been a lack of effective instruments for observing teachers' formative assessment practices. This study focuses on the ongoing…

This study used the RBC+C model to reveal the abstractions of the 6th-grade students in the process of transition to the parallelogram area formula. Also, constructing parallelogram area information was employed as a teaching experiment based on the basic interpretive approach, one of the qualitative research methods. The study participants…

The short activity presented in this article continues a discussion related to the value of golden ratio explorations in secondary mathematics, and acts as a companion to the earlier paper in this journal (Crawley, 2023). Exploring meaningful ways in which teachers can elicit students' interest and engagement in mathematics is vital, and…

Teaching towards big ideas provide opportunities for teachers to think deeply about content and pedagogy in order to support their students to see connections in mathematics. However, teachers may not always activate or mobilise their knowledge in classroom situations. This paper looks into how a teacher, Peter, think about the tasks in his…

As students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) participate in the general education setting at greater rates, they are expected to meet rigorous grade-level academic standards. Students with ASD typically struggle with problem solving, higher-ordered thinking, and mathematical reasoning. When students enter middle school, mathematics becomes more…

This comparative, multiple-case qualitative study aimed to learn more about how students learn with and behave during mathematics instructional videos. While some researchers suggest that learning and teaching mathematics online is more complex than other disciplines, others believe that learning in the video learning environment can be effective…

This study presents an opportunity to see how ECE teachers can create early learning math professional learning. Utilizing participatory design research methodologies and expansive learning theory as a frame, it offers valuable insight into what teachers value and want out of professional learning experiences as evidenced by the emerging design…

This longitudinal collective case study is about the transformational experiences of three novice elementary teachers, Tammy, Katie, and Michelle, as they moved from an elementary teacher preparation program, at a large research university in the southeast United States, through their first two years of teaching in different elementary school…

Women have historically demonstrated more anxiety related to mathematics than men (Van der Sandt & O'Brien, 2017). The purpose of this qualitative transcendental phenomenological study was to explore and describe how female elementary mathematics teachers' lived experiences influenced their beliefs and attitudes toward their self-efficacy in…

Following up on an individual-level randomized controlled trial of a Dana Center Math Pathways (DCMP) model, this study assessed longer-term impacts on students' math completion, academic progress, and academic attainment. The version of the DCMP that was assessed in this study diversified the developmental and college-level math course content…

Middle school math students are underperforming on teacher-created assessments and assignments, state assessments, and nationally normed assessments, such as the Measures of Academic Performance (MAP) and the National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP). Only 35.7% of sixth graders in South Carolina scored "meets or exceeds…

In this article, the authors provide some insight into how teachers can potentially facilitate among students' representations and activities on mathematical tasks: between or among -- (1) student representations and the context; (2) multiple forms of student representations; and (3) processes in student representations. The authors use the…

This study explores how three widely used US kindergarten mathematics textbooks, each written to align with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM), vary in terms of content coverage, instructional grouping, and use of representational strategies. Results show that all textbooks (i) primarily emphasize math practices related to…
