Mathematics achievement is positively associated with coding in the classroom. By making mathematical relationships visible to students as they code, teachers leverage rich connections between block-based computer programming and mathematical sense making. In this article, the authors describe strategies for adapting a Code.org lesson integrating…

A variety of factors are associated with the learning difficulty in mathematics in the context of Pakistani schools. This study explored the different causes of learning difficulties in mathematics faced by primary school students in Karachi, Pakistan. Using a quantitative research design, the data was gathered from the parents and teachers of…

In this research, we aimed to determine whether students' math achievements improved using ChatGPT, one of the chatbot tools, to prepare lesson plans in primary school math courses. The research was conducted with a pretest-posttest control group experimental design. The study comprises 39 third-grade students (experimental group = 24, control…

The potential of tasks to foster mathematical learning and understanding is an important aspect of instruction and their implementation in teaching is thus often viewed to be positively related to the quality of instruction. Both the selection of tasks as well as their implementation in the classroom depend on many factors, with teachers'…

The paper evaluates math performance at four high-need middle schools during a four-year intervention, which was designed to help math teachers diagnose students' areas of need and to design lesson plans responsive to those needs. Before the intervention began, the researchers pre-selected four comparison schools by matching based on achievement…

The teacher acts as a mover, motivator, and mentor in student learning activities. Teachers also act as mentors to other teachers and agents of transformation in the education ecosystem in schools. This study aims to describe the pattern of teacher learning planning in shaping students' Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) in learning mathematics. This…

Research suggests that math anxiety correlates directly with individuals' views of mathematics-related experiences. Research also suggests that math anxiety may begin in early elementary grades and remain into adulthood. This study examined how teachers' experiences, perceptions, and mathematics confidence levels influence mathematics instruction.…

This study aimed to determine the effect of localized lesson plans to the interest and performance in mathematics. The respondents were grade 6 pupils of Odiong Elementary School, Philippines in the school year 2019-2020. The experimental grouped was exposed to instruction using localized lesson plans while the control grouped was exposed to…

Build collective teacher efficacy and students' mathematical thinking using the Mathematics in a PLC at Work™ lesson-design process. This second edition of the popular "Mathematics Instruction and Tasks" book guides preK-12 teacher teams in ensuring improved mathematics achievement. Gain new and enhanced understanding of…

The purpose of this meta-analysis was to investigate the effectiveness of the use of games as part of mathematics instruction on academic achievement in grades Kindergarten to 12 in the United States. There were 17 studies selected for investigation published from 2010 to 2023 that focused on game-based learning and mathematics. This meta-analysis…

Is it possible to identify instructional practices that have an impact on student learning in mathematics? The study described here is part of ongoing efforts to understand and characterize effective instruction. We drew on the work of several recently developed frameworks for understanding teaching effectiveness to develop a protocol for studying…

Problems of developing subject education and science have become more acute during different social changes. The most problematic is the teaching of exact disciplines, including mathematical disciplines (mathematics, algebra, geometry), which form knowledge for working in high-tech industries. It is worth noting that the methodology of teaching…

Based on many researches, there is negative relationship between mathematics anxiety and achievement. However, there is no study about mathematics anxiety and achievement in Malaysian foundation centers. This research studied the impact of Lesson Study (LS) on mathematics anxiety and achievement of students in a Malaysian university. A total of…

To ensure that our students can compete in a global economy, successful teaching and learning of mathematics must become a priority within our schools. However, schools continue to track or group students by ability, which, in turn, systematically leaves students behind. Detracking will create a school system that provides both equity and…
