This qualitative case study, grounded within the interpretive paradigm, analyzed the errors and misconceptions made by 11th-grade learners when tackling the tangent-chord theorem task in Euclidean geometry. Studying Euclidean geometry helps learners develop critical thinking skills, such as constructing arguments and applying logical reasoning.…

This study examines how student performance in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics predicts later college enrollment. The results show a strong and consistent relationship over time: students who score at the highest performance level are more than twice as likely to enroll in college compared with students scoring at the lowest level.…

This meta-analysis examined whether learning outcomes differ (a) for STEM integration versus traditional instruction and (b) across STEM integration implementations. Based on 79 effect sizes from 40 studies of 15,577 students, those learning via STEM integration outperformed other students on academic achievement tests (g = 0.661; 95% CI [0.548,…

This paper explores the reflections of a primary teacher, Lisa, who began teaching her class just as Victoria entered a state-wide lockdown, prompting a shift to Emergency Remote Teaching. In professional interviews, Lisa evaluated the strategies she used during online instruction. She concluded that live sessions, interactive activities, small…

This study explored how students develop and demonstrate resilience when prompted with mathematical problems. Anchored on the Three-Dimensional Resilience Theory in Mathematical Problem Solving, a multiple case study was conducted on thirteen (13) purposively selected students from a public senior high school in Davao City, Philippines. The…

One of the institutionalized collaborative practices among teachers and other educators is the conduct of lesson study (LS). Considering the growing interest in the potential of LS to improve the quality of education through collaboration, it is worth exploring its potential contribution to enhancing the teaching competencies of teachers. This…

Reading motivation has been a focus of research to address the lack of reading proficiency in secondary classrooms, and an understudied area within this broad field of research is the effects of the learning environment on student reading motivation. The current study investigates the effect of 9th-12th grade students' perceptions of the learning…

Providing multiple representations of mathematical ideas is an established strategy for supporting students in making connections between high-level conceptual ideas. One form of assistive technology that provides students with such representations is mathematics manipulatives. Virtual manipulatives, in particular, are backed by a growing research…

Over the last decade, reform in science education has placed an emphasis on the science practices as a way to engage students in the process of science and improve scientific literacy. A critical component of developing scientific literacy is learning to apply quantitative reasoning to authentic scientific phenomena and problems. Students need…

This paper presents a scoping review of the literature on educational neurotechnology, examining its types, methods, applications, opportunities and challenges. A total of 4236 articles were identified from PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, Web of Science and ERIC, with 471 peer-reviewed studies selected and analysed following PRISMA guidelines and…

This study explores ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) students' early algebraic thinking abilities by comparing them to their non-ASD peers. The first aim was to examine whether possible significant differences between ASD and non-ASD students in arithmetic also extend to early algebra. The second aim focused further on early algebraic thinking,…

Early understanding of base-10 concept has been shown to be associated with superior mathematical achievement among East Asian children. In addition to their base-10 structured number system, teacher support in kindergarten is also crucial to children's development of this complex mathematical concept. Therefore, this study examined how Japanese…

Students learn mathematics best when they actively explore problems, connect solution methods, and synthesize ideas at just the right moment. Yet in many classrooms, this balance tips too quickly toward telling students how to solve problems, leaving less room for them to do the real mathematical work. "Teaching Mathematics Through Problem…

This study adapted and validated an instrument to measure pre-service teachers' understanding of language as an epistemic tool in mathematics education in South Korea. Initially validated for science education, the instrument was tailored for mathematics education and translated into Korean. The validation process included tests for content…

A sizeable literature investigating teacher test score value-added--the extent to which pupils make different rates of progress under different teachers--has emerged in the United States. While there is much interest in estimating teacher value-added in other countries such as England, progress has been limited by the lack of datasets linking…
