During the past few years, the social interactions of students have been limited. The act of social distancing has not only exacerbated developmental gaps in social and emotional learning (SEL) (Vaillancourt et al. 2021) but also interrupted mathematics instruction (Lewis et al. 2021). Teachers are searching for strategies that promote…

Problem-solving is the essence of mathematics and is the main goal in learning mathematics. Many students did not have good problem-solving skills based on the field observations. The problems grew up because the students were not used to solving the problems and the problem-solving stages. They did not include issues with high complexity, such as…

How dyslexia students solve number operations is still challenging to unravel. This study aimed at revealing the types of errors conveyed by a dyslexic student in performing fractional operations on mathematical tasks that combined non-verbal text (symbols and pictures) and verbal text. The data were collected using a task-based interview with a…

This article presents a networking of two theories, the Extended Theory of Mathematical Connections (ETC) and the Onto-semiotic Approach (OSA). In particular, concordances and complementarities are identified in the respective conceptions of mathematical connections, as a result of applying these theoretical frameworks to a student's response…

Mathematical problem solving has been identified as one foundational area of mathematics for all students but is an area of weakness for students with disabilities. This investigation sought to determine the effects of peer-delivered schema-based instruction on the mathematical problem solving of the change problem type with four middle school…

During the past 20 years, numerous studies examining the use of problem posing in mathematics instruction have documented positive outcomes in terms of students' problem-solving skills, creativity, and attitudes and beliefs regarding the study of mathematics. However, despite these promising results, problem posing in mathematics instruction has…

The overwhelming presence of a procedural meaning of equality and equations reported in previous research has led to a call for suitable pedagogical interventions to nurture a relational meaning of these concepts. This paper is a response to that call. Drawing on the theory of objectification, the first part deals with the configuration of a Grade…

In this study, the mathematics of carpet will be introduced by presenting the lifestyle of two expert carpet-weavers from Kerman, Iran, who work for many years in carpet-weaving activities through an explanation of carpet weavers' culture. This explanation reveals that carpet weavers can do mathematics and solve related real-world problems without…

The purpose of this literature review is to explicate the facets of mathematical problem solving taxonomies in relation to mathematical modeling. Subsequently, components and learning benefits of mathematical modeling are discussed. Examples of mathematical problems are embedded in the discussion and pragmatic applications to mathematical…

Methods of teaching differential equations (DE) have long focused on rote analytic solution methods that align poorly with more industry-relevant numerical and computational methods. Engineering and mathematics educators agree that there is a need to shape DE curricula to reflect the mathematical practices of the disciplines whose students take…

This study sought to examine the effectiveness of math problem solving interventions with self-regulated learning (SRL) components on the math problem-solving performance of middle school students with disabilities. A meta-analysis was conducted of all single-case design studies meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria between 2000-2021, resulting in…

The effectiveness of teaching strategies in improving student achievement in mathematics has been a topic of ongoing research. In Kosovo, vocational schools, especially those with an economics focus, face challenges in student engagement and achievement in mathematics, particularly in solving contextual problems related to economics. This study…

Transform mathematics instruction with the comprehensive mathematical competencies (CMC) framework--a research-based model that integrates seven essential competencies: conceptual and procedural integration, problem solving, logical reasoning, communication, tool use, pattern recognition, and student engagement. Through practical classroom…

This study aims to analyze the impact of cognitive flexibility and classroom engagement levels on high school students' creative problem-solving skills. The participants are 341 tenth grade students from three different high schools, along with nine mathematics teachers who have been teaching these students for at least two years. Data analysis…

The aim of this study is to reveal and evaluate the attending and interpreting skills of student thinking of prospective teachers, as well as their instructional suggestions as responding skills. The current study was conducted with 29 prospective mathematics teachers (PMTs) within a qualitative design in the context of probability. First, three…
