The primary objective of this research was to explore the intricate relationships and mediating among self-perception of mathematics, technological self-confidence, and mathematical representations. A cross-sectional study was conducted involving a sample of 322 students from both public and private schools in Bandar Lampung, Indonesia. The data…

Over four decades of conceptual change studies in education have been based on the assumption that learners come to science classrooms with functionally fixated intuitive ideas. However, it is largely ignored that such pre-instructional conceptions are probabilistic, reflecting some aspects of an idiosyncratic sampling of their experiences and…

The present study aimed to explore the mediating role of subjective academic well-being in the relationship between the three dimensions of mathematical resilience (value, struggle, and growth) and mathematical modeling competency among fifth grade students, as well as the moderating effect of gender on this relationship. The participants in this…

The psychological dimensions of the teaching of mathematics are attracting increasing attention in mathematics education research. This study presents a cross-national comparative study of the mathematical identities of a sample of preservice and inservice primary teachers in the partner institutions (in Italy, France, and Spain) of a specific…

Teacher resilience exerts a significant influence on the professional development of teachers in their early career stages. Especially for novice mathematics teachers, the development of their resilience directly impacts their job satisfaction, sense of well-being and other aspects. Nevertheless, existing research has rarely delved into teacher…

This study classified profiles of homework approaches involving eighth graders in China, regarding the likely combinations of surface and deep approaches to homework. Latent profile analysis (LPA) identified five distinct homework approach profiles: "High Deep/Low Surface", "Low Deep/Low Surface", "Moderate Deep/Moderate…

This study investigated (1) how students and their families' choices of learning modality differed by student demographics, (2) how much movement (i.e. learning modality changes) occurred during the pandemic school year, and (3) the mediating effect of movement on the relation between initial learning modality choices and students' mathematics…

Knowing the mathematical knowledge of students entering primary teacher education is key to guiding admission or diagnoses to inform teacher education programs. To understand how students' initial mathematical knowledge is organised, the study draws on the idea of Fundamental Mathematical Knowledge, which had been defined as the mathematical…

Background/purpose: Mathematical literacy is an important ability that students must acquire, but several studies indicate that Indonesian students' mathematical literacy remains low. Therefore, this study aims to (1) test the effectiveness of CTL assisted by Articulate Storyline in improving students' mathematical literacy and (2) analyze the…

This study examined the types of representations that primary school children create in solving different types of problems, the relationship between these types of representations, and the accuracy rates in solving the problems. The study was conducted with 80 students attending primary school's 2nd and 3rd grades. An achievement test prepared by…

The issue of mathematical knowledge in teaching has been widely discussed over the years. In this study, we carried out a systematic review of the literature with the aim of understanding, quantitatively and qualitatively, the studies developed related to the mathematical knowledge necessary for the teaching of Mathematics, with a focus on Numbers…

The academic success of students in higher education institutions (HEIs) depends on a multitude of factors, including the assessment strategies employed. In recent years, many HEIs have prioritised continuous assessment methods, often as a complement to or replacement for traditional final exams. This study examined the impact of two assessment…

Early language environments are considered to support children's language development; however, it is unclear to what extent early language environments relate to skills other than language abilities. We examined (1) whether the preschool language environment (measured as adult words heard and conversational turns) is associated with children's…

This article is based on the main finding of an action research study that investigated how primary school teachers could improve the teaching of fractions. The study primarily focused on what pedagogical strategies might be employed when shifting teaching and learning from procedural application to conceptual understanding. The research aimed to…

Mathematics is central to STEM coursework, yet limited research has examined how instructors in mathematics and other STEM courses facilitate connections between courses for their students at the university level. Based on pre-surveys and focus group meetings with faculty members across departments, we describe factors that participants…
