Multilingual learners (MLs) encounter key language features that influence their mathematical word problem-solving processes. Much of the readily available literature surrounding MLs' experiences in the mathematics classroom explores either their content knowledge or how language affects their mathematics achievement. Far less literature has…

Although research highlights the importance of analyzing the geometric work of teachers, there are few validated instruments in this line. This study presents the processes of design and validation of a forced-choice questionnaire that allows the characterization, from a theoretical basis, of how geometry teachers organize their teaching practice.…

Research on teacher questioning often provides snapshots of questioning practices or study how interventions can lead to development of questioning, but few studies have investigated if and how teacher questioning evolves naturally over time. This study explored such natural variation by analysing the questioning practice of a Norwegian elementary…

This research examined the impact of the Cognitive-Communicative (C-C) model as a pedagogical strategy for teaching algebraic word problems (AWPs). The C-C model integrates structured dialogue, concept clarification, and systematic problem-solving steps to enhance students' comprehension and reasoning. Employing a mixed-methods framework, the…

This study investigates the pedagogical content knowledge identified in six prospective elementary teachers' written teacher practicum reports. Focusing on the three categories of pedagogical content knowledge included in the Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching framework, the study analyzes the prospective teachers' descriptions and combines their…

The introduction of large language models (LLMs) may change future pedagogical practices. Current research mainly focuses on the use of LLMs to tutor students, while the exploration of LLMs' potential to assist teachers is limited. Taking high school mathematics as an example, we propose a method that utilizes LLMs to enhance the quality of…

Describing and analyzing teaching practice has been a focus of researchers interested in the interaction and connections between teachers' content knowledge and their pedagogical knowledge. This study described the role of a teacher's mathematical content and pedagogical content knowledge in involving students in learning and solving Science,…

Research in mathematics education has long identified the ideology of certainty as central to mathematical instruction and to the way in which mathematics is (mis)used in social and political discourses. As we will see, this ideology is not merely a matter of individual beliefs, but is deeply embedded in the material practices and power structures…

The challenge posed by algebra story problems creates a significant hurdle for many students, transcending both the mathematical content of the problem and the specific instructional background received. This study offers a distinctive contribution to the existing literature by focusing on the cognitive conditions essential for comprehension in…

Providing opportunities for students to talk directly with their peers is a critical dimension to facilitating discussions in mathematics and science, including argumentation-focused discussions in which students construct arguments and critique others' arguments. Research suggests that supporting student-to-student talk and facilitating…

While GeoGebra applets have been extensively investigated in learning environments, few studies have addressed the interactive GeoGebra applets in an e-book-based learning environment. This study aims to compare the effects of the e-book created with interactive GeoGebra applets on students' learning achievement and motivation. The sample of the…

This article reports on an empirical study that investigates the way students' performance in solving arithmetical tasks may be related to their performance in solving algebraic tasks. The sample consisted of 203 Grade 6 students. The arithmetical tasks involved arithmetical expressions with known quantities, whereas the algebraic tasks involved…

This study aims to develop a mobile game using the QuizWhizzer application to improve fifth graders' learning interest in mathematics at Kalibata 04 Elementary School, South Jakarta, Indonesia. The contribution of this study is to enhance the interest in mathematics learning for students in all elementary schools in South Jakarta, Indonesia. This…

Proficiency in solving mathematical problems is essential for preservice elementary teachers, as they will teach foundational math concepts and foster problem-solving abilities among young learners. However, many studies found low problem-solving performance among preservice teachers. In line with this, the present study examined how…

Different types of reasoning, such as intuitive, inductive, and deductive, are used in the generalization of figural patterns, as an important part of patterns in school mathematics. It is difficult to demarcate the constructive patterns where the regularity observed in the first few sentences is generalizable to the other sentences and each…
