Problem-solving is a key aspect of mathematics instruction. Although it is part of several national curricula, its implementation is still being vastly explored. The present research, which is part of a larger project, aimed to investigate the effect of using problem-oriented instruction in grade 3 of primary school on students' mathematical…

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…

Background/purpose: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of using E-Module-based Problem-Based Learning (PBL-EM) in improving the mathematical communication skills of Senior High School students based on their cognitive style on mathematical logic material. Materials/methods: This study used a mixed design with an embedded design approach…

In the 21st - century skills - oriented education, this study aims to bridge the gap in traditional mathematics teaching, which often addresses teamwork and problem - solving skills independently. It focuses on designing and assessing an integrated instructional model using Problem - Based Learning (PBL) via Collaborative Learning (CL) to equip…

Background/purpose: This study aims to improve students' mathematical critical-numeracy thinking skills by applying the Problem-Based Learning-Autograph model. Materials/methods: This study used a mixed method with a sequential explanatory strategy, and the research design is a one-group pretest-posttest design. The population included students…

Background/purpose: Although mathematical representation ability is a significant ability and an interesting topic to study, quite a few researchers have studied this ability, and even fewer have examined it through the implementation of epistemic learning patterns based on problem-solving. In fact, this learning pattern is epistemic and makes…
