Calculus is perhaps the most widely taught and researched upper-secondary/post-secondary mathematics subject the world over. The research literature is amassing greater clarity around students' understandings of calculus, yet calculus instruction tends to be at odds with this literature, maintaining a focus on procedural aspects of the subject.…

Simulation studies are the basic tools of quantitative methodologists used to obtain empirical solutions to statistical problems that may be impossible to derive through direct mathematical computations. The successful execution of many simulation studies relies on the accurate generation of correlated multivariate data that adhere to a particular…

We live in an increasingly worrying future, where researchers are looking at how we can create education for a sustainable world. In this study we investigate what such education could look like, especially for young students, reinforcing hope and an ability to act and come up with ideas of sustainable solutions with no obvious 'good' solution.…

This study describes the experiences of secondary-level mathematics teachers from the Department of Education of Puerto Rico implementing the strategy of contextualized teaching. Qualitative research framed in phenomenology was conducted, collecting data through semi-structured interviews and a review of normative documents from the Department of…

Achieving meaningful educational outcomes requires scalable strategies for mastering mathematical concepts and skills, with student engagement at the core. This paper examines the use of comprehensive, technology-enhanced activities designed to promote active learning and deeper conceptual understanding. Specifically, it focuses on the integration…

Background/purpose: In modern mathematical education, it is important to develop students' ability to understand the fundamental properties of geometric objects deeply. This makes it relevant to study the additivity of the area of triangles as a property inherent in various kinds of quantities and ways of representing it methodologically in the…

The provision of a profitable education in Mathematics is important at a cross-curricular level, since this subject finds room in a plethora of academic paths, not limited to the most scientific or technological curricula. In particular, this applies to the security and defence area, where several skills related to mathematical reasoning, such as…

This study examines the implementation of a course module that integrated computing and data analysis. The module aimed to engage prospective mathematics teachers in the practice of working with datasets and analyzing data to investigate questions related to local Brooklyn schools, as well as to gain deeper insight into the students and…
