Although the impact of remote education during the pandemic on executive functions and mathematical skills has been extensively studied, few studies have examined its effect on pre-school education. Our study aimed to compare the executive and mathematical performance of preschoolers during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 122…

In this article, the authors share two examples of student engagement in visible, mathematical thinking through a Chalk Talk within the four walls of the classroom, as well as the connected spaces of online learning. Five steps for facilitating the Chalk Talk are outlined, with descriptions of teacher moves for each step. The silent thinking…

This study aims to understand teachers' opinions toward a framework of affect-focused mathematics teaching and its use in real and virtual classrooms. The participants were 11 school teachers from diverse backgrounds (mostly teaching mathematics). Before the interview, the teachers viewed an introduction to the framework and the teaching materials…

Technology provides instant information. Appropriate use of diverse types of technology is important in the classroom including a virtual classroom, and integration of technology will enhance the student learning experience. Utilizing a variety of technology will actively engage students with learning objectives, generate communications among…

Most higher education institutions in the UK now offer some form of additional individual support for mathematics and statistics. Whilst numerous studies have shown mathematics support can improve grades and reduce failure rates, there is a lack of research on other outcomes of interest such as anxiety or confidence, and very little research…

The difficulties college-level math instructors encountered switching from a traditional to an online classroom during the COVID-19 pandemic were the main topic of this study. The study's main goal was to learn more about the various strategies and tools the teachers employed to overcome the obstacles. Using a qualitative methodology, the…

In organizations, teams are ubiquitous. "Weakest Link" and "Best Shot" are incentive schemes that tie a group member's compensation to the output of their group's least and most productive member, respectively. In this paper, we test the impact of these incentive schemes by conducting two pilot RCTs (one in-person, one online),…

The examples used in the teaching-learning process of mathematics have a crucial role in fostering conceptual understanding, and some variables can affect instructors' qualified example usage. This longterm study focused on mathematics teachers' exemplification process in face-to-face and online learning environments. In this regard, the change in…

Research in mathematics education highlights the importance of including modelling for the teaching of this subject. In 2020, this trend coexisted with a grave contingency situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic but which, despite its negative aspects, provided a realistic and authentic context for modelling. Given this situation, it is relevant…

Online learning offers increased flexibility to students but also poses new complexities. For example, there are challenges in digitizing teaching approaches that rely on the coconstruction of knowledge through social interaction and collaboration between learners. This study explores a novel pseudo-synchronous approach using 360-degree video to…

Excellent certificates are not enough to make excellent teachers rather, teaching demands constant insight, reflection, and suitable pedagogy. Determining the best pedagogical method of course delivery plagues faculty members and schools across the globe. This paper reports on an investigation and outcomes of a comparative study of three different…

Due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions, new instructional designs for mathematics courses have recently been developed. Unlike traditional e-learning courses, distance learning via videoconferencing contains more synchronous elements and is therefore more closely related to classroom instruction. Since theories of person-environment fit suggest…

This paper explores the provision of online and in-person mathematics support from the student perspective. We compare and contrast online, in-person and hybrid formats of mathematics support offerings between two universities from opposite sides of the globe by presenting analysis of 227 student responses to six surveys. Three surveys were…

Teachers are implementing flipped instruction in an increasing number of mathematics classes but the research base is not yet well developed on this topic. Many studies of flipped instruction in mathematics have involved a small number of classes utilizing flipped instruction being compared to classes with non-flipped instruction, but this study…

An university in Chile developed a Digital Learning Routes (DLR) for three elective courses in the area of mathematics: (1) limits, derivatives, and integrals; (2) probabilities and descriptive and inferential statistics; and (3) three-dimensional geometry. A DLR is a sequence of e-learning activities that seeks to enable learners to build…
