Effective feedback improves grades, quality of work, and student perceptions regarding the quality of the feedback they receive. Recent feedback scholarship indicates that despite students' appreciation of quality feedback, they seldom use it. A shift in focus toward feedback engagement has resulted in several narrative reviews on the topic, each…

At the beginning of the 21st century, "number sense" was listed as one of the core words in the mathematics curriculum of compulsory education in China, and it has now become one of the core competencies of primary school mathematics. It is necessary to determine the development of number sense of first-grade primary school students (6-7…

Through creative thinking, it is possible to acquire new attitudes and a view of the world, not only of mathematics but from several sides (Kamp, 2016). Creativity in mathematics can be defined as a process based on sensitivity to problems, deficiencies, gaps in knowledge and sensitivity to identifying missing elements, revealing difficulties in…

This study introduces an evaluation benchmark for middle school algebra to be used in artificial intelligence (AI) based educational platforms. The goal is to support the design of AI systems that can enhance learners' conceptual understanding of algebra by taking into account learners' current level of algebra comprehension. The dataset comprises…

This study aimed to investigate the impact of Learning Trajectories (LT[superscript 2])-based games on the mathematical learning of four-year-old kindergarteners. The research employed the ADDIE paradigm, incorporating a pre-test, post-test, and a control group experimental design. The sample group comprised 30 children--15 in the experimental…

The rise of memes has transformed the way people communicate and share information online, presenting a unique opportunity to leverage technology in the service of education. We explore the potential of memes as an educational tool for supporting STEM education and increasing student engagement. We aim to provide a theoretical framework for using…

Recent advances in AI have opened the door for the automated scoring of open-ended math problems, which were previously much more difficult to assess at scale. However, we know that biases still remain in some of these algorithms. For example, recent research on the automated scoring of student essays has shown that certain varieties of English…

Social justice in mathematics education remains a critical concern. Despite growing awareness, progress has been insufficient. Mathematics education plays a pivotal role in fostering social justice through creativity, critical thinking, innovation, and collaborative problem-solving. However, existing curriculum, teaching practices, and assessments…

Using the United States data from the 2019 Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study, which included a total of 9924 randomly selected students in grade eight from 325 randomly selected schools, the present study examined the relationship between the students' attitudes toward mathematics and the mathematics achievement of the…

The Adult Literacy for Life (ALL) Strategy was established to reduce the number of adults in Ireland with unmet numeracy needs from 25% to 12% (Government of Ireland, 2023). Studies suggest that learners' negative attitudes towards mathematics may also develop over a sustained period (Prendergast et al., 2020). Adult learners who have had negative…

This study accumulated empirical evidence pertaining to preservice teachers' (n = 62) reasoning processes while choreographing group formations with embedded algebra tasks. The activities were designed to facilitate examination of the potential pedagogical connections between choreographing formation and mathematics, with particular emphasis on…

Background/purpose: Several previous studies have attempted to develop Android learning media for elementary students beginning to learn counting. However, no media with a levelled adventure theme exists. The purpose of this research is to develop an android-based learning media, B'Math, to improve elementary students' counting skills.…

This study used a mixed-methods approach to explore the impact of a fraction intervention on 46 sixth-grade students, including 13 with learning disabilities. Twenty-four students were enrolled in the classroom that received intervention, the remaining students participated in standard instruction. The intervention focused on sorting visual…

Although the impact of remote education during the pandemic on executive functions and mathematical skills has been extensively studied, few studies have examined its effect on pre-school education. Our study aimed to compare the executive and mathematical performance of preschoolers during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 122…

This study seeks to understand the experiences of a teacher who has participated in professional learning that focuses on the values, beliefs, and enjoyment that primary school teachers experience about mathematics teaching. Using a quantitative ethnography methodology, an epistemic network analysis was applied to understand these changes…
