The facts show that the mathematics achievement of Indonesian students is still very low. One of the causes of this problem is that the learning model used by the teacher is still conventional. This study aims to describe the activities of Mathematics Prospective Teachers (MPT) in completing assignments/projects using the Outdoor Learning…

Background/Context: Kindergarten mathematics instruction is critical for students' future academic success. The nature and quality of this instruction may vary depending on classroom characteristics. However, little empirical work has examined how mathematics instruction in kindergarten might differ based on classroom performance levels. Purpose,…

Contemporary comprehensive mathematics teaching material covering whole courses has developed substantially from the early versions that roughly were 'books as pdf' with some complementary online material. In teaching materials that are offered in online web portals (digital teaching platforms) a variety of dynamic and interactive elements can be…

Collectively understanding the diligence and perseverance necessary for teachers to fully support student learning and not accept "give-up-itis" from students is essential for success in mathematics, especially for African American students. In the participatory action research (PAR), I examined the extent to which upper elementary…

Time estimations, patterns and measurement sense are important skills to develop within the mathematics classroom (Mildenhall, 2016; Thomas et al., 2017). To develop a true understanding of time, students need to holistically understand: the language of time, the notion of duration and succession, how time is measured, and the concept of time…

Co-teaching is the practice of general educators and special educators sharing instruction in a general education setting to deliberately meet the needs of students with and without disabilities. Co-teacher research tends to focus on the processes of co-teaching, and little is known about how teachers go about creating a system of interconnected…

Limited knowledge is currently available regarding the efficacy of mathematics education in online distance learning and the strategies that can be implemented to enhance its effectiveness. The purpose of this study is to investigate the changes in rural students' spatial skills when engaging in activities that necessitate the use of isometric…

This study was designed to evaluate a teacher-focused professional development program intended to provide educators with tools needed to combat mathematics learning loss created by the COVID-19 pandemic and the continued disruptions to learning that followed. This project-based dissertation-in-practice surveyed 23 secondary math teachers and…

This extended literature review explores four broad themes concerning mathematics education, the first of which is on how U.S. school-aged children have been performing in mathematics at the national and international levels. Findings demonstrated that at the national level, their performance has been stagnant for many decades for high school…

Following the seminal work of Gloria Ladson-Billings, research on culturally responsive pedagogy (CRP) has, in recent years, expanded significantly. Ladson-Billings proposes three elements of CRP: academic achievement, cultural competence, and sociopolitical consciousness. Nevertheless, in mathematics education research on CRP, the sociopolitical…

Although positive effects of lesson study on teachers learning are reported, only some studies have investigated teacher noticing as an analytical tool for supporting teachers with an explicit focus, as in LS, and more empirical evidence is needed. This qualitative interpretive case study design aims to investigate the noticing processes of a…

This quantitative study examined the technological capability and teaching proficiency of 40 Mathematics teachers in using ICT-based instruction, with a gender distribution of 47.5% female (19) and 52.5% male. An adapted and revised questionnaire was used along with the checklist as main instrument to gather the needed data. The results showed…

Prior research has shown that game-based learning tools, such as DragonBox 12+, support algebraic understanding and that students' in-game progress positively predicts their later performance. Using data from 253 seventh-graders (12-13 years old) who played DragonBox as a part of technology intervention, we examined (a) the relations between…

Opportunities for students to share their thinking with the class--which I refer to as "work-sharing practices--require a profound shift in who is positioned with intellectual authority in mathematics classrooms. This study explores work-sharing practices in one sixth grade mathematics classroom through an interactional lens. Video analysis…

This paper focuses on the trajectories of two mathematics teachers in developing Political Conocimiento through one year of Professional Development (PD) on culturally responsive mathematics teaching. The PD was organized around teacher and student noticing, positionality, community partnerships, and action research. The study found that the…
