The purpose of this study was to compare the problem posing skills of gifted and non-gifted primary school students. In this study, the case study method was used. The participants who were selected by convenient sampling consisted of 24 gifted and 24 non-gifted students attending from the East of Black Sea region of Turkey. The data in the study…

Problem solving is one of the high-level thinking skills and essential in teaching mathematical concepts and procedures. The eye-tracking method allows educators to see and interpret different problem-solving behaviours of students. The purpose of this study was to investigate the problem-solving behaviours of university students based on eye…

The aim of this study is to reveal the mathematical literacy skills of seventh grade students according to the PISA Mathematical Literacy Framework. In the study, a special case study from qualitative research methods was used. The participants of the study were 25 seventh grade students studying in the middle school of a public school in Giresun…

Problem solving skill is a basic skill that students should acquire both in mathematics education and their daily lives. This research aims to examine fourth-grade elementary school student skills in solving four-operation problems prepared in different structures according to the situation of the unknown. In this research, on the one hand,…

With the study reported on here we aimed to determine what learners perceived as normative in the mathematics classroom. For this reason, we focused on negotiation of the problem solutions and we attempted to determine the sociomathematical norms perceived by learners (SNPS). Audio recordings of dialogues among learners, individual reports, and…

This research was carried out to examine the serial mediation role of mathematics self-efficacy and metacognition for problem-solving in the effect of reading comprehension on problem-solving. The relational research model, one of the quantitative research designs, was used in the study. A total of 699 middle school students studying in official…

Algebraic Thinking (AT) and Computational Thinking (CT) are pivotal competencies in modern education, fostering problem-solving skills and logical reasoning among students. This study presents the initial hypotheses, theoretical framework, and key steps undertaken to explore characterized learning paths and assign practice-relevant tasks. This…

This qualitative case study investigates how, and to what extent, primary school teachers notice students' mathematical thinking in the context of whole number subtraction. A task involving a student's invented strategy was used to collect data. Three noticing questions connected to the task were asked to 45 teachers. Their written answers were…

This study aims to examine the effect of problem posing-based active learning activities on students' problem-posing skills and problem-solving achievement. To this aim, an experimental design with pre-test post-test control group was employed. The participants consisted of two groups of sixth graders, one experimental group (N=23) and one control…

In the present study, the effects of using dynamic geometry software in active learning framework on students' problem posing skills and their views about problem posing were examined. The participants consisted of 16 eighth-grade students. Data were collected by problem posing tests, open-ended questions, student diaries, and dynamic geometry…

The need for improving and evaluating students' cognitive skills, including problem-solving, has been highlighted in both the mathematics education literature and the curricula worldwide. The objective of this study was to assess the problem-solving skills of lower secondary school students using a teacher-based evaluation method, taking into…

This study aims to advance the development of the mathematical processing skills of students by suggesting the use of digital geography games. This includes an analysis of its contribution to the standard mathematics curriculum in areas such as data processing as well as its contribution to social studies curricula in areas such as map literacy,…

This research presents the outputs of problem-solving based STEM education activities applied in an undergraduate mathematics course. An experimental study using a randomized pretest-posttest control group design was carried out to examine the development of elementary pre-service teachers in the fields of mathematics achievement, belief about…

The purpose of this study is to investigate how to improve middle school 6th-grade students' skill of associating mathematics with real life through Realistic Mathematics Education, which was reinforced with educational games, to determine the problems possible to be encountered in practice and how to solve these problems in details. This study,…

Determining students' perceptions of problem-solving is an important step to improve their mathematical problem-solving skills. For this reason, the aim of this study was to develop a scale to determine secondary school students' perceptions of mathematical problem solving. In the study conducted in a basic research model, a scale application, one…
