This study aimed to reveal the views of prospective mathematics teachers on the use of the Tinkercad program. This case study, utilizing a qualitative research method, was conducted with 18 prospective mathematics teachers currently enrolled in a fourth grade education program at a state university in a province in western Turkey. The convenience…

Circle and disc are fundamental concepts introduced in middle school, forming the basis for many other mathematical ideas. Students often face challenges in comprehending circles, discs, and their basic elements. This research examines the processes of sixth-grade students in constructing circles, discs, and their essential components within a…

Public Schools across the US face a common challenge in supporting minoritized students reach high academic standards. Standardized assessments repeatedly demonstrate Latinx and English Learner populations are underserved by US schools, reflecting the need to improve equitable access to high-quality instruction with a focus on diverse and…

Digital math assessments with bilingual accommodations allow multilingual learners to use their entire linguistic repertoire to showcase their knowledge and skills. The bilingual accommodations, which include tools like language translation and audio prompts in both English and Spanish, are designed to be adaptable, giving multilingual learners…

Collaborative mathematical argumentation plays an important role in mathematics education. However, students often focus on the efficiency of solving problems and neglect the importance of expressing statements and reasoning in the collaborative argumentation process. Due to the weak knowledge changes in group argumentation, students' learning…

This quantitative study examined the dynamics of the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework within mathematics education, centring on the role of Contextual Knowledge (XK). The research, conducted with middle school mathematics teachers in Chongqing, China, employed structural equation modelling (SEM) to explore the…

This study examines the effectiveness of GeoGebra in enhancing students' conceptual understanding of points, lines, and angles within a socio-cultural learning context. A quasi-experimental, nonequivalent pretest-posttest design was utilized, involving 279 first-year secondary school students from four public schools in Rwanda. Participants were…

This study aims to examine the impact of integrating the role of philosophy of mathematics education in mathematics teacher education on student learning outcomes and attitudes towards mathematics. Purposive sampling technique was used to recruit 10 in-service mathematics teachers from a Technical School in Kumasi. A qualitative case study…

Aim: This study adopted a three-wave random intercept cross-lagged panel model to explore the longitudinal reciprocal relationships between (a) the teacher-student relationship (TSR) quality and (b) the parent-child relationship (PCR) quality and positive affect among Chinese primary school students. Samples: Two primary school student samples,…

GeoGebra, a dynamic mathematics software, was used to study high school students' perceptions and achievements in learning trigonometric ratios. The study addresses a critical gap in the literature concerning the use of GeoGebra for understanding trigonometric concepts, particularly in fostering conceptual clarity and problem-solving skills.…

Employing best practices for teaching mathematics like math manipulatives, children's literature picture books, and GeoGebra can all be connected and better help to prepare students for a STEM world to develop confident young individuals in doing mathematics in a world of AI, distance learning, and online with emerging technologies. This paper…

The present study investigated the relations among math anxiety, math self-concept, and math self-efficacy on math achievement in older students and underserved ethnic minorities (i.e., Blacks and Hispanics) in higher education. These two groups have been largely neglected in the math self-construct literature. The results showed that older…

Mathematical skills significantly predict students' educational paths. Mathematical achievement varies depending on the student's socioeconomic status (SES). However, the extent of the SES gap for specific mathematical skills remains unclear. In this cross-sectional study, we examined age variations by SES in three mathematical skills, applied…

The COVID pandemic and ongoing risks to school safety drastically increased interest in full-time virtual school enrollment at the start of the decade. However, virtual schools have historically struggled to achieve mathematics outcomes comparable to their face-to-face counterparts and are at risk if they do not find ways to improve student…

As the number of Multilingual Learner (ML) students attending public schools rises, so does the demand for those who can teach them. Research shows that due to the existence of gaps between different types of knowledge, theory, and practice, the results of teacher preparation programs are often fragmented and do not fully benefit participating…
