This literature review covers 42 years and has two main objectives: to identify the obstacles to learning the polar coordinate system and to explore the teaching proposals suggested to overcome them. These questions are answered by locating and analysing articles related to the topic published in research and practitioner journals specialising in…

The study reported in this paper is motivated by an article published on a financial portal that presented loan repayments with a continuous approach, as opposed to the discrete approach of addressing loan repayments applied in mathematics courses for economists. Using the Anthropological Theory of the Didactic, we analyse the current didactic…

Query languages are the foundations of database teaching and education practices. The broad adoption of graph databases contrasts with the limited research into how they are taught. Contrary to relational databases, graph databases allow navigational queries with higher expressivity and lack an a priori schema. In this article, we design a…

With the continuous development of higher education, the evaluation of college students' learning has received increasing attention. Understanding the impact of the multiple evaluation system on college students' sense of English learning acquisition is of great significance. It helps educators to better design teaching activities and evaluation…

Critical thinking is a skill that people must develop to navigate skillfully the information they receive through media channels. The cultivation of this skill must begin in the early stages of education and continue uninterrupted through the completion of academic training. For this reason, the search for tools to promote critical thinking in the…

Teaching Computer Science concepts, such as graph theory, is often challenging. This study proposes an approach for teaching graph theory using an unplugged game ("GraphGame") developed through a participatory design process that includes usage observation, clarifying meaning, prototyping, and implementation. This process was carried out…

This study evaluated the effects of Precision Teaching in improving typically developing students' mathematical skills when delivered via teleconferencing in India. Four students received Precision Teaching, while nine acted as control participants. Precision teaching involved instruction in three mathematical skills; two prerequisite skills and…

This book summarizes new directions in mathematics education research on proving at the university level, thereby providing contemporary extensions of the sub-fields of proof that Annie and John Selden introduced to the field. The chapters each describe an emerging new area of proof research, review the relevant findings in this area, present open…

The authors of this article describe three student-driven learning modules developed from their respective College Fed Challenge courses. These activities are ready-to-apply in a wide range of courses to facilitate adoption without a large time commitment. In the "Pick a Policy Maker" module, students gain an understanding of the…

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Fry readability-based digital storybooks on reading comprehension skills among elementary school students. The method used in this study was an experimental research design with a pretest-posttest control group design to measure students' reading comprehension skills. The sample of this study was…

[This paper is part of the Focused Collection in Artificial Intelligence Tools in Physics Teaching and Physics Education Research.] Artificial intelligence-based chatbots are increasingly influencing physics education because of their ability to interpret and respond to textual and visual inputs. This study evaluates the performance of two large…

The assessment of writing competency in French as a Foreign Language presents significant challenges due to the multidimensional nature of writing and heterogeneous evaluation practices. This research introduces an innovative framework integrating artificial intelligence and interactive visualization to support the formative assessment of writing…
