A key aspect of teaching 'development' is understanding the conundrums and tensions between balance and imbalance with constructs of global (all humans, all societies, all populations) and planetary (all of Earth, including humans) spheres. This article deconstructs some key tenets of populist post-truth frameworks (termed as…

This study focuses on high school students' perceptions of cooperative problem-solving learning in mathematics classrooms. Case study was chosen as a research design in this study. Participants of this study were grade 11 students of Dangila preparatory high school in Awi-zone, Ethiopia. The number of participants was 105. The data were collected…

In the current literature, there is limited evidence of the effects of teaching programming languages using two different paradigms concurrently. In this paper, we present our experience in using a multiparadigm and multiprogramming approach for an Introduction to Programming course. The multiparadigm element consisted of teaching the imperative…

The purpose of this study is to examine the characteristics, problems and possible solutions in the international student selection process faced by higher education institutions in Turkey. The study group is composed of academic and administrative executives who are involved in the foreign student selection process of 5 universities in the Aegean…

This study's goal is to examine the relationship between interpersonal problem-solving approaches and personality traits, resilience, and hope levels in university students. Four hundred and one [234 (58.4%) female, 167 (41.6%) male] university students participated in the study. The data were collected using the Interpersonal Problem Solving…

Blended learning, is a teaching approach that integrates online self-learning and classroom teaching. When designed well, blended learning courses in medicine can facilitate students to improve themselves in self-learning, understanding, and problem solving, ultimately enhancing their learning efficiency. However, blended teaching methods are…

Employer complaints of engineering graduate inability to 'apply knowledge' call for a better understanding of the theory-practice relationship in technology-driven twenty-first century industries. A novel systems-based model was developed to analyse how mechatronics engineering practitioners apply mathematics, physics and logic-based knowledge to…

Mathematics majors, including future secondary teachers, should understand the work of pure mathematicians and the crucial role proof plays for the discipline of mathematics. Beyond the textbook proofs seen in most transition-to-proof courses, we conjectured that students might develop a deeper understanding of the discipline of mathematics and…

This paper presents the design and analysis of a Model-Eliciting Activity (MEA), which aims to support the refinement of the conceptual system associated with directly proportional distribution problems (example: linear function, percentage, proportion, variation, etc.). The situation explores a context that is close to the student, encouraging…

We describe an instructional intervention designed to help teachers engage English learner (EL) students in mathematical problem solving and learn the mathematics register. The "Discursive Assessment Protocol" (DAP) integrates Pólya's classic problem solving framework with research-based instructional strategies that benefit EL students.…

In the spirit of the networking of didactical theories, it is advocated in this presentation in favor of a mixed networking of philosophical theories, namely Husserlian phenomenology and hermeneutics, and didactical theories to produce a fertile interplay between philosophy and mathematics education. The cross-analysis of students' work on a…

Improving problem solving abilities among students remain to be a challenge among teachers and students. This study aimed to identify problem solving ability of first year students as affected by cognitive development levels and teaching strategies of first year high school students in Mathematics I. The study utilized descriptive and experimental…

The human capital in the Zimbabwean labour market lacks the capacities to critically and creatively address technological, economic and industrial challenges. The new education policy, Education 5.0 requires graduates to design solutions to these problems. This conceptual paper demonstrates that the required creative and critical skills necessary…

This study aims to describe the ability of students' mathematical connections in solving problems in the circle equation material through transposition studies. The method in this research is a descriptive qualitative approach, the techniques used in the study are tests, interviews, and documentation to explore data in research. Test and interview…

This paper examines how organisations have increasingly been portrayed in textbooks as solving social problems as well as contributing to national development. Findings from 527 Canadian and U.S. textbooks illustrate the rise of an organisational society during the time period between 1836 and 2011. Discussions of for-profit and non-profit forms…
