Parents are a key role player in the success of students in school and mathematics through assistance with homework. However parental involvement with mathematics homework and their contribution toward progress within the subject is an ongoing topic of debate for many different reasons. This article focuses on a Family Mathematics Programme (FMP)…

Despite extensive research suggesting the importance of students developing strong foundational math skills during early grades, more than 60% of 4th graders in the United States lack proficiency in mathematics. Such data are influenced by several factors, including summer learning loss in math, negative impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, and a…

This study investigates the impact of the Imagine Math program, a digital supplemental learning solution, on math achievement. The research compares the performance of students who used the program with those who did not. Results indicate that users experienced, on average, a statistically significant improvement in their math performance.…

Background: Early numeracy interventions including basic arithmetic are crucial for young students at risk for early mathematics difficulties (MDs), yet few studies have evaluated numeracy interventions in second grade with a randomized controlled design. Aim: This pre- and post-test randomized controlled study evaluated the effects of an…

This research is motivated by observations that show the lack of additional teaching materials in schools that facilitate students in communicating mathematical ideas (symbols, pictures, and graphs) as well as concepts related to fractions by presenting the surrounding environment as a source of learning. The purpose of this study is to reveal the…

This quantitative study sought to identify the impact of a mathematics curriculum that does not incorporate homework on mathematics achievement. Based on recent standardized testing data, educational practices must be examined to improve mathematics results. This study focused on one district setting that at the start of the 2023 school year…

The current study was a retrospective mixed-methods quasi-experimental design (QED) study to determine the effects of Progress Learning on Grades 6-8 mathematics and ELA achievement by comparison growth on the Georgia Milestones Mathematics and ELA assessments of students who received Progress Learning services, in relation to students that did…

This study presents an in-depth analysis of the factors influencing the adoption and utilisation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in primary mathematics education. Employing a quantitative research design, the study integrates the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) with empirical data…

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…

Lesson study, especially when conducted with support from targeted resources, is often identified as a potentially effective means to support teacher learning. In this study, 80 school-based teams of educators, representing 80 classrooms of third- or fourth-grade students in the US, were randomly assigned to one of four conditions: lesson study…

This study explored the long-term academic impact of Two-Way Dual Language (TWDL) programs on both English-dominant and Spanish-dominant Hispanic students in a high-density Hispanic area. Specifically, it compared their academic performance in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math over a 3-year period to that of students enrolled in traditional…

Using the theoretical constructs of double instrumental genesis and instrumental distance, in this article, I examine case studies of four primary school teachers (K-5) in British Columbia, Canada, who implemented the multi-touch, iPad application TouchTimes (hereafter, TT) into their mathematics teaching. This novel digital technology provides…

This study examines the impact of an online math learning program on third through fifth grade math achievement in Louisiana. Employing Zearn Math usage metrics and administrative data from the Louisiana Department of Education, the results indicate that grade levels that programmatically used Zearn Math scored, on average, about .03 standard…

To stay up with society and technology, pedagogical changes are needed. Even a well-designed curriculum depends on teachers, who implement it. Knowledge drives this field's educators' actions. This dissertation examined how the Southwest New Mexico Elementary Mathematics Specialists (EMS) program affects elementary mathematics teachers' PCK.…

i-Ready is an English Language Arts (ELA) and mathematics instructional program for Grades K-8 students featuring an individualized plan for instruction based on each student's performance on an online, computer-adaptive diagnostic assessment. Once students complete the diagnostic assessment, i-Ready builds a unique lesson plan with a…
