Equitable teaching practices encompass evidence-based strategies utilised by teachers to support the learning of all pupils, while recognising each pupil's unique background. This study delves into the perspectives of Scottish teachers regarding equity in mathematics, as evidenced by their self-reported practices. By analysing semi-structured…

As COVID-19 continues to impact various business sectors, university administrators have steadily pushed for all academic units to resume on campus operations and activities; conversely, faculty and students have expressed increased interest in continuing online teaching/learning. We aim to mitigate this "tug-of-war" between…

Using the High School Longitudinal Study of 2009, the association between high school exit exams and mathematics course-taking patterns is explored. Exit exams are linked to a decreased likelihood of students taking upward-bound mathematics during their four years of high school. Exit exams are also associated with fewer mathematics credits…

This study attempts to understand the source of variation in the Students' Evaluation of Teaching (SET) of mathematics courses by comparing the data structure of engineering major students and mathematics major students' datasets. The sample considered in this study consists of 644 students distributed into two majors: 237 mathematics students and…

Background: Math anxiety (MA) is a worldwide appearing academic anxiety that can affect student mental health and deter students from math and science-related career choices. Method: Using the Arabic version of the Modified-Abbreviated Math Anxiety Scale (m-AMAS), the prevalence of MA was investigated in a very large sample of students (N = 10093)…

Background: The STEM education system has garnered significant interest due to its innovative approach in creating a multidisciplinary and integrated knowledge structure that connects science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, and allows students to apply scientific knowledge in a comprehensive and holistic manner. Consequently, evaluating…

As mathematics education moves toward a more student-centered approach, it has become more difficult to ignore the multiple identities and related knowledge students bring to the classroom. Culturally responsive and sustaining education (CRSE) provides an opportunity to deepen student learning by drawing on students' racial and cultural identities…

Geometry is a strand of mathematics that can benefit individuals in many areas of life. Test results, such as the TIMSS results, indicate that geometry is an area for growth among American students. With a need for students to better understand geometry, several academic standards have been created to direct geometry instruction in the United…

The study explores implementing a didactical design approach in elementary school students learning mathematical concepts such as factors and multiples. This research was conducted over four meetings at one of the elementary schools in Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The research subjects consisted of one class teacher and seventeen…

This investigation delves into the numerical comprehension among elementary and middle school students within Israel's Arab sector, challenging the conventional metrics of mathematical ability. Despite the apparent adeptness in standard mathematical tests, a significant discrepancy exists between calculative prowess and genuine numerical…

Helping students to stay motivated by creating an environment that makes them interact is essential to attaining academic achievement. This action research utilizing mixed methods approach explores the flipped classroom's impact on the students' achievement motivation. Also, a significant focus has been on how students interacted with their…

This study aims to examine changes in students' achievement in geometry, attitude towards geometry, and their self-efficacy perception of geometric knowledge while working on paper folding activities through an experimental research methodology. The sample for this experimental study was 108 ninth-grade high school students. The study's data were…

The purpose of the current study was to qualitatively explore the home mathematical environment across two regions in two different countries (i.e., Cuba and Mexico), replicating a qualitative study previously conducted in Northern Ireland (NI), United Kingdom (Cahoon et al., 2017). Semi-structured interviews with parents/caregivers of children…

Teachers' noticing of students' mathematical thinking plays an important role in supporting student learning. Yet little is known about how online professional development (PD)--a growing setting for PD in the USA--can cultivate this noticing. Here, we explore the potential of using two online tools for engaging video to support K-2 teachers'…

This study used a mixed methods approach to examine the instructional and social emotional factors that support African American boys' success during early elementary grades. The study investigated key influences including teacher and parent demographics, student-teacher, and parent-student relationships, building mathematical confidence in…
