Turkey experiences distance education at the master's and doctorate degrees for the first time. This study aims to reveal the essence of the distance education experiences of mathematics teachers who continue their postgraduate education with distance education due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This study was carried out using the phenomenological…

Middle school students with learning disabilities often struggle with reading and literacy skills, including vocabulary, and require support in content-area classes such as mathematics where weak vocabulary knowledge can negatively affect learning, achievement, and deep understanding. However, in general, middle school mathematics teachers do not…

In 2019, RAND Corporation asked teachers which digital programs they used. This dissertation study expanded on this research by exploring the features contained in these programs. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between teachers' access to features and school, teacher, and feature characteristics. This study had two…

The purpose of this research is to determine whether the achievement gap between Black and White students differs significantly between Minnesota public charter schools and traditional Minnesota public schools. The reading and math proficiency gaps between Black and White students in Minnesota are among the largest in the nation. Despite the fact…

Understanding whether or not different types of students master various attributes can aid future learning remediation. In this study, two-level diagnostic classification models (DCMs) were developed to represent the probabilistic relationship between external latent classes and attribute mastery patterns. Furthermore, variational Bayesian (VB)…

The main purpose of this qualitative study was to investigate the challenges faced in teaching, learning, and technology in online geometry classes. The perspectives of online geometry students and teachers provided insights into the effectiveness of online geometry learning. A qualitative descriptive design was used to gain insights into the…

The problem explored in this study addresses the disparity in math achievement outcomes for African American and Latinx students at Oak Hills Elementary School (pseudonym). Leading educational scholars have charged educational researchers to rethink how they discuss and examine achievement and invited them to frame achievement discourse through…

The purpose of this quantitative, correlational study was to discover the influence of teacher-student relationships on teachers' math self-efficacy and math anxiety in first through third-grade students. This research was significant since the results inform and guide educational training, evaluations, and classroom management. This study was…

This study was undertaken given the need to develop mathematics modular instruction that integrates Sama students' culture with Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. It sought to find whether students exposed to EthnoSTEM-Based Mathematics Instruction (EMI) have significantly better mathematical…

This study investigated the effect of teaching rehearsals on 22 preservice secondary mathematics teachers (PSMTs) who were in their first mathematics pedagogy course. The objective of the teaching rehearsal was to introduce PSMTs to student-centered teaching. PSMTs worked in groups to complete a learning cycle consisting of analyzing a mathematics…

The goal of this paper is twofold. First, the paper clarifies and elaborates on an important theoretical construct called orientation with respect to understanding in mathematics, which denotes the degree to which students exhibit an inclination towards and demonstrate an earnest concern for understanding in mathematical learning. Second, the…

More than two-thirds of first-year community college students require remediation in reading and/or mathematics before they can take college-level courses. Among these underprepared students who take the recommended developmental mathematics courses to become college-ready, less than one-third successfully complete these courses, posing a barrier…

The need for constructivist classroom environments in mathematics teaching cannot be ignored in order for sustainable development to continue. One of the most important applications of constructivist classroom environments in mathematics education all over the world is mathematical activities. The proficiency of pre-service mathematics teachers in…

The "Revista del Centro de Estudios Educativos," numero 3, 1971 included an early Carnoy article on the economics of education: "Un enfoque de sistemas para evaluar la educación, ilustrado con datos de Puerto Rico." The article used a unique data set that had student test scores, students' family background characteristics, and…

Although the importance of problem solving as an essential component of mathematics learning and doing has consistently been recognized, recent research has only just begun to identify and describe the complex set of variables influencing the endeavor. Therefore, the aim of this study was to empirically investigate the relationships between…
