Problem-solving skills are essential in improving the creative, critical, and logical thinking skills needed in mathematics learning and daily life. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of problem-based learning (PBL)- assisted ethnomathematics-based Geocube e-module on problem-solving skills. This quantitative research applied a…

A theoretical framework grounded in constructionism and pragmatism theories supported research on learning by doing. This framework underpinned the purpose of this qualitative case study to explore how K-8 STEM teachers facilitated projects utilizing innovative technologies to solve community-based problems. The problem was a lack of connection…

This exploratory study investigated the behaviors and content of onscreen calculator usage by a nationally representative sample of eighth-grade students who responded to items from the 2017 National Assessment of Educational Progress mathematics assessment. Meaningful features were generated from the process data to infer whether students…

In this study, the effect of using on-screen calculators on eighth grade students' performance on two TIMSS 2019 Problem Solving and Inquiry Tasks items considered as examples of technology-enhanced items administered on computers was examined. For this purpose, three logistic regression models were run where the dependent variables were giving a…

This investigation explores the relationship between the use of digital pencil and mathematical problem-solving accuracy among 1,530 students with learning disabilities (LD) and 25,400 general education (GE) peers from the 2017 digital National Assessment of Educational Progress mathematics assessment. The term "digital pencil" in this…

Mathematical problem posing was advocated as one major area needing systematic investigation. It was also recommended that school mathematics learning should involve experientially real problem situations and using handheld devices to bridge across formal and informal contexts for mathematical learning. This research study explored how 11 middle…

This paper explores the impact of a tailored working memory training program on the mathematics achievement of secondary school students in Myanmar. While previous studies have investigated the relationship between working memory and mathematics, this study focuses on a context where computerized training programs are limited. Twelve Grade 8…

This study aims at understanding the role of the tools chosen throughout the processes of solving a non-routine mathematical problem and communicating its solution. In assuming that problem-solving is a synchronous activity of mathematization and expression of mathematical thinking we take our proposed Mathematical Problem Solving with Technology…

This research investigates the impact of mathematical problems created with Scratch on the problem-solving skills of 8th-grade middle school students. The research was based on the descriptive design of mixed research approaches. In this direction, the research model was single-group pretest-posttest design, which is a weak experimental design…

PISA studies have concluded that while the level of knowledge, amongst students in Estonia, is good the level of higher order thinking skills is lower, especially in natural sciences, which is accompanied by lower study motivation. In order to study the level of higher order thinking skills and what influences those skills, an action research was…

This study seeks to identify Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) principles for producing Digital Storytelling (DS) in Investigation Group (IG) among Brazilian basic education students, based on socio-scientific themes. This investigation used qualitative research. The methodological path consisted of developing IG activities aimed at…

This book presents the first results from the third cycle of the IEA International Computer and Information Literacy Study (ICILS 2023). This study investigated how young people are prepared for life in a world where the capacity to use computers and digital information responsibly, safely, and effectively is essential. The study reports on data…

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, learning activities have encountered obstacles. One of the impacts was the low learning outcomes achieved by students. The purpose of this study was to improve the learning outcomes of junior high school students during the physical distancing period by implementing problem-based learning through Smart Apps Creator 3.…

The aim of this study is to investigate how an augmented reality mobile math trails program can provide opportunities for students to engage in meaningful mathematical modelling activities. An explorative research design was conducted involving two mathematics teachers and 30 eight grades in Semarang, Indonesia. An Augmented Reality Mobile Math…
