ChatGPT was a learning revolution known as an online program for learning Algebra; it changed what we knew about the teaching medium and molded the learning platform into a more engaging way of teaching. This research determines the use of ChatGPT in addressing math anxiety and promoting the confidence of college students enrolled in algebra at a…

Across the world, standards and practices for preparing teachers of mathematics emphasize the importance of math modeling (MM) in developing students' mathematical thinking. The aim of this research study was to develop the Mathematical Modeling Knowledge Scale (MAMKS), capable of determining preservice teachers' (PSTs') knowledge of MM. The study…

The main purpose of this study was to explore the effects of two college-level mathematics courses on preservice elementary teachers' mathematics anxiety and mathematics teaching self-efficacy beliefs. For this purpose, a quasi-experimental study was implemented on two college-level mandatory mathematics teaching methods courses that were…

When children are aged around 2 years, many of the early foundations of mathematical skills are developing. Understanding this is important to shed light on theories of mathematical development. Nevertheless, little research has investigated 2-year-olds' early mathematical abilities, with most research focussing on either infants (aged 0-1 years)…

The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to identify and evaluate the effects of individual characteristics associated with mathematical word problem-solving skills among elementary school-aged children and to unpack the quality of studies investigating these associations. The systematic review was reported according to the…

Mathematical modelling is an interlinking process between mathematics and real-world problems that can be applied as a means to increase motivation, develop cognitive competencies, and enhance the ability to transfer mathematical knowledge to other areas of science, such as engineering disciplines. This study was designed to investigate the effect…

Mastery of the cardinality principle (CP) is foundational for children's mathematical development. Children's age and subitizing and counting skills contribute to their CP acquisition. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of different types of instruction for supporting 3-4-year-olds' CP development and its interplay with child…

This article investigates the potential mathematical learning opportunities arising from a digital activity designed to enhance students' comprehension of equations. Employing a commognitive-oriented lens, the analysis explores the potential mathematical discourses that could emerge from students' interactions with a digital scale inspired by the…

This article reports on a qualitative investigation into students' thinking about a differential equations problem posing task; i.e. an initial value problem. Analysis of written and verbal responses to the task indicate that only four of the 34 students who participated in the study were successful in posing problems. Furthermore, only one of the…

Developmental mathematics courses play a critical role in ensuring that students have the foundational mathematical skills necessary to succeed in higher educational mathematics coursework. With the introduction of the corequisite format in recent educational reforms, there has been a growing trend towards transferring developmental mathematics…

Building upon the blockbuster success of "Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics," Peter Liljedahl has joined forces with co-author Maegan Giroux to bring the Building Thinking Classrooms (BTC) framework to life in this new book, "Mathematics Tasks for the Thinking Classroom, Grades K-5." But this book is so much more than…

Using the sawtooth map as the basis of a coupled map lattice enables simple analytic results to be obtained for the global Lyapunov spectra of a number of standard lattice networks. The results presented can be used to enrich a course on chaos or dynamical systems by providing tractable examples of higher dimensional maps and links to a number of…

This article presents a theoretical-didactic perspective on the formation and development of concepts concerning mathematical objects as a result of research on didactic difficulties in dealing with concepts in school. The theoretical foundation that supports the research is based on the contributions of the materialist approach to the theory of…

This article describes the efforts of members of the North Carolina Collaborative for Mathematics Learning to provide equitable, engaging, and high-quality mathematics instruction to students, aligning with the vision outlined in the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics's (NCTM) "Principles to Actions" (2014). The statewide…

The evolution of mathematics coincided with advancements in its teaching. The 19th and 20th centuries marked a pedagogical revolution in mathematics education. This paper argues that Bruner's (1966) model, Gagné's (1985) taxonomy, innovative teaching methods emphasizing research and problem-solving, and the inclusion of data analysis topics have…
