By the end of primary school, children are expected to acquire a range of mathematical skills that progressively develop. This study aimed to gain insight into how a large number of numerical and geometrical measures are grouped and whether the structures shift or remain invariant along child's development based on the data obtained from a sample…

We conducted a descriptive study among first-year engineering students at the Anton de Kom University of Suriname. We analyzed students' errors regarding necessary prior knowledge in a calculus A exam. We found that the stage of the solution in which prior knowledge is required impacts the importance of prior knowledge. We also found that many…

Mathematics seems abstract, difficult, and uninteresting to many students, which in turn reduces their interest in learning mathematics. It has been found that the use of ICT and meaningful contexts of problem-solving tasks can make learning mathematics more enjoyable and easier to understand for students. To increase students' interest in…

This study aims to understand teachers' opinions toward a framework of affect-focused mathematics teaching and its use in real and virtual classrooms. The participants were 11 school teachers from diverse backgrounds (mostly teaching mathematics). Before the interview, the teachers viewed an introduction to the framework and the teaching materials…

The aim of the study informing this paper was to investigate pre-service teachers' (PSTs') approaches to task design, posing the research question: How do pre-service teachers respond when they are asked to design an exploratory task using GeoGebra for 8th grade students? The research study and this paper focus on the PSTs' design stories rather…

The poor performance of students in mathematics indicates that students need to acquire the necessary skills and knowledge required for solving mathematical problems. The study investigated the impact of information and communication technology (ICT) on gender differentials in mathematics performance among secondary school students in Kwara State.…

The aim of this research is to assess the attitudes exhibited by pre-service primary mathematics educators towards statistics, while concurrently investigating the influence of gender on these attitudes. The research methodology employed in this study involved the adaptation of the Survey of Attitudes toward Statistics (SATS-36) to pre-service…

Elementary preservice teachers enter teacher preparation programs with preformed conceptions of their abilities as mathematics learners that directly influence their sense of self as mathematics teachers. Often, they have had experiences that leave them feeling anxious about their capability to be effective mathematics teachers, which negatively…

The purpose of this quantitative ex post-facto study was to determine if differences exist in 4th-grade students' reading and math learning outcomes between co-taught classrooms and traditional classrooms in a Florida public school district. The study was conducted with archival data from the school district's fall and winter progress monitoring…

No matter whether privately or school-funded, if appropriately provided, tutoring is beneficial for students and to the educational culture of learning. And yet, we do not see it offered as a resource in all school settings to build equity in impacting all students and subjects. This qualitative case study aimed to examine the confidence, levels…

Minimum Competency Assessment (MCA) is the latest assessment conducted nationally in Indonesia. MCA measures students' cognitive in literacy and numeracy. This study illustrates the difficulty of students in solving numeracy questions in the minimum competency assessment. This research is included in case study research with a qualitative…

Mathematics is one of the essential subjects for students because it focuses more on the ability to remember, memorize, and interpret. In addition, gamification in mathematics is excellent since it promotes critical and creative problem-solving and enhances children's metacognitive abilities. This experimental study investigates the impact of…

The aim of this study is to determine the effects of the values-based mathematics teaching activities on mathematics achievement and mathematics attitudes of 8th grade students in Türkiye. For the study, a control group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design was used. A total of 59 students (experimental group 29; control group 30) from a…

This study aims to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of using effective sentences in writing story problems related to integer arithmetic operations. The research methodology used is descriptive analysis with a qualitative approach, and case study design to explore in depth a phenomenon or problem. Data were collected through a documentary…

A disproportionate number of preservice elementary teachers exhibit high levels of math anxiety (Reid et al., 2018). Not only does this inhibit their ability to understand mathematical concepts, but it also negatively impacts their pedagogical approach to math (Beilock & Maloney, 2015; Reid et al., 2018). Teachers who experience math anxiety…
