While reviewing the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) data, Singapore is a leader in math and science (Mullis et al., 2016). Let's learn from the best. Education is an aspiration not a destination (Ng, 2020) which demands an internal motivation of lifelong learning and change in education with a goal to improve…

The Whole College Approach (WCA) programme was developed to guide Further Education colleges in England through organisational change processes to improve student engagement and achievement in mathematics. Interim findings from a two-year research project of this Whole College Approach in 16 English Further Education colleges indicate its…

The pandemic has exacerbated existing learning gaps and created new challenges for students. This Spotlight explores effective strategies to address these gaps, accelerate learning, and support students' overall well-being. From identifying which students have been disproportionately affected to implementing in-school tutoring, these articles…

The ability to apply mathematical knowledge to solve real-life problems is often considered one of the fundamental educational goals. However, more attention in mathematics education has been given to the development of abstract mathematical computations in symbolic form. The current investigation aims to disclose whether there are different…

This study evaluates the impact of Maryland's Mathematics Reform Initiative (MMRI), which sought to improve student success in developmental and college-level math through comprehensive curriculum and structural reforms. Launched in 2015, the MMRI developed and implemented non-algebra math pathways tailored to students' chosen program of study.…
