This paper reports on a design-based research (DBR) study that aims to devise an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered teachable agent that supports secondary school students' learning-by-teaching practices of mathematics learning content. A long-standing pedagogical practice of learning-by-teaching is powered by a recent advancement of generative…

This study compared shifts in learners' attitudes under two instructional strategies: technology-enhanced Van Hiele phased instruction (TVHPI) and conventional Van Hiele phased instruction (CVHPI). A quasi-experimental design was used with 245 learners in the CVHPI group and 238 learners in the TVHPI group. Owing to non-normal data distribution,…

Researchers have repeatedly found schematic diagrams, both as part of Modified Schema Based Instruction and outside of this problem-solving approach, effective for teaching students with disabilities, including intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), to solve math word problems. The current study was a systematic replication of Bouck,…

This research aims to explore both the individual and combined relationships between the use of GeoGebra and productive disposition with students' strategic competence. The use of GeoGebra involves teacher-led activities designed to assist students in managing and engaging with learning, serving as a tool to enhance mathematics learning outcomes.…

In 2014, a team of educators and all of the eighth-grade students at a "failing school" in Nashville, Tennessee, took up the challenge of teaching and learning Algebra 1. This was in the context of a constrained standardized-test-driven public school environment in which less than 20 percent of these students had achieved proficiency in…

This study explored elementary teachers' (N = 26) development as novice Elementary Mathematics Specialists (EMSs). They worked in 21 urban-situated schools in the United States that served historically marginalised students. Professional learning experiences aimed to prepare them as effective and equitable mathematics teachers and teacher leaders…

Teacher education is expected to be a setting to develop preservice teachers' professional identities before they enter the teaching profession. Research, however, has shown that such development seldom occurs during teacher preparation. How to effectively do so thus requires further research. Given a newly revisited tendency toward practice-based…

Research on anxiety faced by teachers has focused on math-related anxieties. However, elementary teachers who teach multiple subjects may also experience anxiety when teaching other subjects, especially early in their careers or when teaching certain grade levels. In this preregistered study with 279 kindergarten to third-grade teachers, we…

Recent research on more comprehensive models of student learning in adaptive math learning software used an indicator of student reading ability to predict students' tendencies to engage in behaviors associated with so-called "gaming the system." Using data from Carnegie Learning's MATHia adaptive learning software, we replicate the…

Paraeducators provide essential academic support for young learners of mathematics. However, they have limited opportunities to engage in professional development (PD) that is responsive to their instructional needs and role. To scaffold paraeducators' growth, project staff designed, tested, and refined a PD model specifically for K-3…

This study aims to explore the nature of prospective middle school mathematics teachers' questioning processes by identifying their purposes and underlying reasoning. Data were collected from seven lesson plans and semi-structured individual or group interviews with ten prospective teachers. Findings show that candidates planned to ask questions…

This quantitative study was designed to determine whether the use of graphical aids in standardized mathematics testing is effective in lessening the achievement gap between English Language Learner (ELL) students and their non-ELL counterparts for middle-grade aged students. The data used for this study include data from 2,659 students and come…

The purpose of this study is to develop an Android-based augmented reality learning media using Unity software to improve students' creative thinking skills in polyhedral ethno-geometry materials. The development of augmented reality learning media follows the ADDIE development model, which consists of five phases: analysis, design, development,…

In university education, lecturers often adopt didactic lectures in undergraduate calculus classes. This method has been judged for making students passive recipients of calculus knowledge who cannot construct their own knowledge of the discipline. One way to make didactic lecture more interactive and engaging in calculus class is to encourage…

This article covers the details of the Zero Mistake Program (ZMP) implemented for senior high school students at Stirling Schools in the regions of Iraq and Kurdistan while preparing for the ministry exams (wezary, baccalaureate). As a result of the findings, recommendations, and outcomes obtained during the preparation for these exams, which are…
