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…

Recent research in mathematics education shows that by exploring the properties of figures and making conjectures, especially through dynamic geometry software, students can better develop their understanding of concepts. Furthermore, comparing different geometric worlds and, within them, different representations enhances Euclidean knowledge. In…

In this study on concepts of geometry, the gestures and mimics used by the mathematics teachers working in school for the deaf to define some mathematical concepts with the sign language were investigated. The research employed the structured interview technique, a qualitative research method. Data were collected through interviews and video…

This study aims to examine the roles of tactile materials and origami models in the perception of concept definitions and representations in geometry applications of individuals with visual impairments. This case study draws on data from eight individuals with visual impairments selected according to the purposive sampling method in a mathematics…

This article explores the use of Extended Reality (XR) technologies, such as Augmented Reality (AR) and motion capture, in mathematics instruction, specifically focusing on geometry learning. Our research highlights the challenges students face in learning geometry due to its abstract nature and the potential of XR technologies to create…

This study aims to examine the relation between spatial ability and creativity in Geometry. Data was collected from 94 ninth graders. Three spatial abilities were investigated: spatial visualization, spatial relations and closure flexibility. As for students' creativity, it was examined through a multiple solution problem in Geometry focusing on…

The concept of a mathematical definition causes severe difficulties among students during problem solving and proving activities. Students' difficulties with the use of mathematical definitions often arise from the fact that students are often given those definitions instead of constructing them. With the aim of developing an understanding of the…

This study aims to explore in-service preschool teachers' attitudes towards and beliefs about geometry and its teaching and to investigate their knowledge of shapes and solids. The study uses a mixed descriptive approach employing quantitative and qualitative research methods. Thirty-four Israeli preschool teachers of children aged 3-6 from 34…

Multicomponent solution calculations can be complicated for students and practiced chemists alike. This article describes how to simplify the calculations by representing a solution's composition as a point in a "concentration space," whose axes are the concentrations of each solute. The graphical representation of mixing processes in a…

In this note we describe the mathematics that emerges from the construction of an origami box. We first construct a simple origami box from two rectangular sheets and then discuss some of the mathematical questions that arise in the context of algebra, geometry and calculus.

Popularly used in marketing and business, gamification has been gaining interest in educational contexts for its potential to invigorate otherwise mundane or difficult processes. A gamified environment transfers motivational elements of games to learning activities thereby engaging learners in the learning task thus transforming dull classroom…

The geometric habits of mind are a process that enables the adoption of ways of thinking about the problems encountered and that works for filling the gap between the results and the thoughts behind these results. It is also important that which cerebral hemisphere activates the geometric habits of mind, so geometric habits of mind and hemispheric…

In the seventeenth century, Guarino Guarini, mathematician and architect, affirmed that architecture, a discipline that primarily deals with measures, relies on geometry: therefore, the architect needs to know at least its basic principles. On behalf of Guarini's words, we designed a set of interdisciplinary teaching experiences, between…

In this work, we show the results of a research with pre-service mathematics secondary teachers about their Van Hiele level regarding the proof in Geometry. We observe three different profiles whose characteristics are described. These descriptions allow us to foresee certain differences when carrying out proof teaching in secondary school. The…

This study aims to address the teaching of integrals in multivariable calculus concerning the role taken by geometry, specifically, geometrical content dealing with boundaries in integrals that appear as curves and surfaces in R[superscript 2] and R[superscript 3]. Adopting the framework of the Anthropological Theory of the Didactic, we approached…
