Concept-based teaching is presumably more effective than popular procedure-based instruction in helping students develop conceptual understanding, an important conceptual base for mathematics teaching reforms in many countries. This study examined the extent to which this assumption is true by controlling the influences of student socioeconomic…

The purpose of this study is to analyse the math skills of elementary school students based on various variables. This study aims to evaluate the success of students in elementary school math classes during the 2022-2023 academic year according to teacher opinions based on various variables. The data obtained may contribute to researchers working…

The paper presents an analysis of elementary grade mathematics teaching in India focusing on mathematical reasoning. Mathematical reasoning is an important tool to make sense of mathematical ideas, which in turn makes mathematics more accessible to learners and promotes social equality. The paper analyzes 112 lessons from Grades 1 to 8 by 21…

Previous research has investigated the Spatial Numerical Associations of Response Codes (SNARC) effect as a measure of spatial number coding in relation to mathematics (Cipora et al., 2020, https://doi.org/10.1111/nyas.14355). An issue that arises if one wants to correlate mathematical performance with the SNARC effect, is how individual…

This study examines the utilization of ChatGPT by pre-service mathematics teachers during the 5E lesson planning process, focusing on its affordances, constraints, and potential as a supportive tool in education. Twenty-one pre-service mathematics teachers, selected through purposive sampling, participated in the study. Data collection included 5E…

This qualitative study explores how structural factors and self-talk mediate early career math teachers' experiences implementing student-centered reforms in high-need urban schools. Results indicate that implementing instructional changes can sometimes interfere with the success of classroom interaction rituals, and can contribute to internal…

Rational number knowledge is critical in both current and future mathematical success. Despite its importance, there is a gap in understanding regarding how children process quantitative information from discretized non-symbolic fractions when salient surface features interfere with this process. This study examines five research questions aimed…

Generalizing patterns is an important feature of algebraic reasoning that is accessible to students across grade-levels because it connects their numerical reasoning to algebraic reasoning. In this article, the authors describe how teachers can use the game Crack the Code to introduce generalizing to their students or can extend students'…

Whole-class discussion of open mathematics tasks is an instructional practice K-12 mathematics educators report has the potential to engage all learners. Because this practice has not been extensively and systematically researched, this study aims to describe and analyze the engagement and experience of learners in open mathematics tasks. Drawing…

This study investigated the effectiveness of workshops on parental involvement in their children's mathematical education. The study employed a quasi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design. This study involved 76 parents from one senior secondary school in the Kweneng Region, Botswana. The study included three steps for data analysis:…

Given the challenge of visualizing the main constructs of two-variable functions and their differential and integral calculus, it is essential to consider instructional resources' use and perceived potential to contribute to students' understanding. This case study considers how four instructors selected and used digital and physical resources in…

A cohort of pre-service mathematics students was exposed to a teaching strategy based on retrieval practice and test-potentiated learning. The aim of the study was to determine how high and low prior topic knowledge study participants compare in terms of their procedural fluency and conceptual understanding after exposure to the teaching strategy.…

Background: When mathematical knowledge is expressed in general language, it is called verbalized mathematics. Previous studies on verbalized mathematics typically paid attention to mathematical vocabulary or educational practice. However, these studies did not exclude the role of symbolic mathematics ability, and almost no research has focused on…

This study aimed to examine the effect of using the flipped classroom model on students' proportional reasoning. In this context, the study focused on students' achievement and solution strategies for proportional reasoning problems. The participants of the study were 56 seventh-grade students, who were determined by convenience sampling method.…

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of digital gamification-based instruction on the attitudes towards mathematics and anxiety of seventh-grade gifted students in the "Equation and Equation" unit. In this study, pretest-posttest unbalanced group experimental design was used. The study was conducted in the 2022-2023…
