This study aims at highlighting the relationship between mastery learning models and academic performance in mathematics, moderated by the number of hours allotted to studying mathematics. There are 305 first to eighth-grade students who learn at "Nae A. Ghica Middle School" in Romania. Students in sixth, seventh, and eighth grades…

This study examines the effectiveness of GeoGebra in enhancing students' conceptual understanding of points, lines, and angles within a socio-cultural learning context. A quasi-experimental, nonequivalent pretest-posttest design was utilized, involving 279 first-year secondary school students from four public schools in Rwanda. Participants were…

Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) approach and project-based learning (PBL) can be integrated as complementary teaching method to actively engage students in addressing authentic challenges within an educational setting. This study aimed at developing students' skills as they work on their practical projects and at…

The study aimed to investigate the mathematics achievement of eighth grade students on geometric transformation and geometric thinking levels. This research was carried out in the fall semester of 2018-2019. The sample was 88 students from two different middle schools in an urban area of Erzincan, Turkey. The survey model was used. The geometric…

This article describes the application of technology to the van Hiele Model for Geometric Thought to increase the van Hiele levels in an undergraduate Euclidean geometry course. Following the model with activities and phase-based instruction, students showed significant gains in the van Hiele levels in five different sections over the course of…

Over the past decade, there has been an urgent calling for the improvement of teaching and learning of mathematics. At that same time, research has provided promising findings in the value of self-regulation and choice on learning for student achievement. With the ever-increasing availability of resources for educators to support student learning,…

Active learning strategies are purported to be effective in enhancing students' understanding of concepts that would otherwise be difficult to master through other strategies of mediating learning. This study forms part of a bigger study where pre-service teachers' errors and misconceptions in transformation geometry were identified, analyzed and…

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of ethnomathematics-based learning on students' mathematical literacy through a meta-analysis study. Primary studies were collected from Google Scholar and ERIC databases based on the inclusion criteria. The results of the literature review obtained 16 studies, either from theses, proceedings, or…

This quantitative correlational study examines school-level longitudinal outcomes of eighth-grade algebra universal acceleration in 15 U.S. school districts when compared with selective acceleration in 289 school districts. Universally accelerated school districts had higher enrollments, with large effect sizes, in geometry, algebra 2, and…

Concept-based teaching is presumably more effective than popular procedure-based instruction in helping students develop conceptual understanding, an important conceptual base for mathematics teaching reforms in many countries. This study examined the extent to which this assumption is true by controlling the influences of student socioeconomic…

Today math teachers can best reach their students and show them how math surrounds us by using manipulatives, children's literature, and GeoGebra while teaching mathematics. These are some of the best pedagogical practices for teaching mathematics today. In our high-tech world, students need to be proficient in science, technology, engineering,…

Geometry is a strand of mathematics that can benefit individuals in many areas of life. Test results, such as the TIMSS results, indicate that geometry is an area for growth among American students. With a need for students to better understand geometry, several academic standards have been created to direct geometry instruction in the United…

This study aims to examine changes in students' achievement in geometry, attitude towards geometry, and their self-efficacy perception of geometric knowledge while working on paper folding activities through an experimental research methodology. The sample for this experimental study was 108 ninth-grade high school students. The study's data were…

Recently, automatic question generation (AQG) has been researched extensively for educational purposes. Existing approaches generally lack relevant information on the authentic context and problem diversity with various difficulty levels, so we proposed a new AQG system for generating contextualized and personalized mathematic word problems (MWP)…

This study aimed to reveal the effect of teaching the 4th grade circumference measurement subject with the dynamic geometry software "GeoGebra" on achievement and motivation. In the research, the pre-test -- post-test control group design, which is one of the quasi-test designs, was used. In the Mathematics lessons conducted with the…
