Taking advantage of our digital era commodities, a plethora of game-based learning activities and educational game genres have been introduced into numerous academic disciplines. However, research has shown that regarding mathematics the variety seems limited; especially for higher level topics, e.g. calculus, there is a lack of immersive games…

This paper describes the collaborative development of an agenda for research on e-assessment in undergraduate mathematics. We built on an established approach to develop the agenda from the contributions of 22 mathematics education researchers, university teachers and learning technologists interested in this topic. The resulting set of 55…

Background: Physical activity (PA) may benefit academic performance, but it is unclear what kind of classroom-based PA is optimal for learning. Aim: We studied the effects of physically active maths lessons on children's maths performance and maths-related effects, and whether gender and previous mathematical or motor skills modify these effects.…

Anh-Duc Hoang – International Education Journal: Comparative Perspectives, 2024
We conducted an experiment to determine the impact of short-term pressure on 1,228 Grade 8 students' outcomes when performing simple math exercises. We required all students to complete 100 simple math questions for 90 seconds. We analysed students' results and then divided them into three groups: (i) a control group who did nothing; (ii) a group…

Rott, Benjamin – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2021
Epistemological beliefs are considered to play an important role in processes of learning and teaching. However, research on epistemological beliefs is confronted with methodological issues as for traditionally used self-report instruments with closed items, problems with social desirability, validity, and capturing domain-specific aspects of…

Gridos, Panagiotis; Avgerinos, Evgenios; Deliyianni, Eleni; Elia, Iliada; Gagatsis, Athanasios; Geitona, Zoi – European Educational Researcher, 2021
This study aims to examine the relation between spatial ability and creativity in Geometry. Data was collected from 94 ninth graders. Three spatial abilities were investigated: spatial visualization, spatial relations and closure flexibility. As for students' creativity, it was examined through a multiple solution problem in Geometry focusing on…

White, D.; Anderson, M. – PRIMUS, 2021
The purpose of this paper is to describe the use of a problem involving superfactorials (a specific product of factorials) that provides an in-depth and comprehensive mathematical experience, encompassing skills that mathematicians view as tantamount to exploration. The problem is easily accessible and fosters creativity and perseverance, thereby…

Sekeris, Elke; Verschaffel, Lieven; Luwel, Koen – Infant and Child Development, 2021
Research distinguishes three types of arithmetic: exact arithmetic, computational estimation and approximate arithmetic. Little is, however, known about the interrelationship among these three arithmetic skills and the general cognitive and early numeracy skills that underlie these arithmetic skills. The current study investigates this…

Meier, Michaela A.; Burgstaller, Julia A.; Benedek, Mathias; Vogel, Stephan E.; Grabner, Roland H. – Journal of Intelligence, 2021
Mathematical creativity is perceived as an increasingly important aspect of everyday life and, consequently, research has increased over the past decade. However, mathematical creativity has mainly been investigated in children and adolescents so far. Therefore, the first goal of the current study was to develop a mathematical creativity measure…

Singamneni, Sarat – Education Sciences, 2021
Building a technology-driven world appears to be the main motivational force behind students choosing to undertake engineering studies. The first year of engineering education plays a significant role in demonstrating sufficient mathematical and scientific rigor to satisfy these motivational factors. The common applied mechanics courses play a…

Andrews-Larson, Christine; Johnson, Estrella; Peterson, Valerie; Keller, Rachel – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2021
Given the prevalence of research in undergraduate mathematics education focused on student reasoning and the development of instructional innovations that leverage student reasoning, it is important to understand the ways undergraduate mathematics instructors make sense of these innovations. We characterize pedagogical reasoning about…

Fischer, Jean-Paul; Thierry, Xavier – Journal of Cognitive Education and Psychology, 2021
The French National Cohort of Children Study ("Etude Longitudinale Française depuis l'Enfance"--ELFE) tested the literacy and numeracy skills of 4- to 5-year-old typically developing children in the second year of "école maternelle." Tasks were administered by more than 4,000 teachers at schools across France. One of the…

Marmur, Ofer; Zazkis, Rina – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2021
We investigate how students make sense of irrational exponents. The data comprise 32 interviews with university students, which revolved around a task designed to examine students' sensemaking processes involved in predicting and subsequently interpreting the shape of the graph of f(x)=x[superscript square root of 2]. The task design and data…

Widjaja, Wanty; Vale, Colleen; Herbert, Sandra; Loong, Esther Y-K.; Bragg, Leicha A. – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2021
Engaging students in comparing and contrasting, forming conjectures, generalising and justifying is critical to develop their mathematical reasoning, but there are untapped opportunities for primary school students to improve these reasoning processes in mathematics lessons. Through a case study of one task, this paper reports on levels of…
