This study explores the relationship between approaches to learning and self-regulation of learning. Approaches to learning characterise students' intentions and strategies regarding learning and studying, divided into deep and surface approaches together with organised studying. Self-regulation of learning is a process of monitoring and directing…

Effective feedback is essential for refining instructional practices in mathematics education, and researchers often turn to advanced natural language processing (NLP) models to analyze classroom dialogues from multiple perspectives. However, utterance-level discourse analysis encounters two primary challenges: (1) multifunctionality, where a…

Society produces storylines about Latiné communities, including their placement in racial and linguistic hierarchies, that permeate the mathematics classroom and research in mathematics education. We conducted a discourse analysis of the enunciations used in top-tier mathematics education journals about these communities. The majority of articles…

This paper aims to provide readers with an overview of recent advances in research on mathematics textbooks in relation to curriculum development and instructional reform. It consists of two main parts, with the first part presenting a targeted micro-scoping review of 13 related research articles published over the last decade (2015-2024), and the…

This paper examines the governance and quality control of digital curriculum resources (DCR) for K-12 mathematics education in Germany. It focuses on approval processes and criteria set by the 16 federal states, arguing that these have the potential to influence the development of DCR. Using qualitative content analysis, the study explores three…

In the current study, academic research on the application of digital tools in math education was analyzed via bibliometric analysis methods and general trends, structural evolution, and thematic concerns in the subject under analysis. Using the keyword term 'application of digital tools in math education' from the Web of Science database, 486…

This study explores the cognitive structures of pre-service primary teachers regarding fraction comparison, using Vinner's concept-image framework to analyze how these pre-service teachers mobilize their knowledge to compare fractions. The mixed-methods approach, combining both quantitative and qualitative analyses (including a questionnaire),…

The increasing use of complex machine learning models in education has led to concerns about their interpretability, which in turn has spurred interest in developing explainability techniques that are both faithful to the model's inner workings and intelligible to human end-users. In this paper, we describe a novel approach to creating a…

Several studies on student's understanding of the concept of the tangent line agree that the difficulties students have when dealing with lines tangent to curves at inflection points or tangent lines that have more than one point in common with the curve are due to a misconception of tangency that is limited to the geometric relationship between…

This meta-analysis examines the impact of technology in statistics learning, comparing experimental and control groups across 34 studies, resulting in 55 effect sizes. The random effects model revealed a significant standardized mean difference (gRE = 0.50, 95% CI [0.35, 0.64], p < 0.01), indicating a positive effect of using technology in…

Teachers' knowledge about mathematical content affects students' mathematics learning outcomes. This study aimed to identify the knowledge of pre-service primary school teachers about mathematical contents. Within a quantitative methodological approach, 150 respondents (58 Papuans and 92 non-Papuans) were involved in this study. An evaluation was…

This article shares the experience of implementing a lesson involving division by zero to a group of third graders. The authors intend to provide a brief overview contrasting the two types of division, sharing, and measurement, and explain why one type is better for classroom discussions that involve division by zero. This provides teachers with a…

In recent years, the pre-training of Large Language Models (LLMs) in the educational domain has garnered significant attention. However, a discernible gap exists in the application of these models to mathematics education. This study aims to bridge this gap by pre-training LLMs on authentic K-12 mathematical dialogue datasets. Our research is…

Initial algebra is a critical stage in the teaching of algebra and occurs when students are transitioning from arithmetic to algebra. Irish mathematics education at post-primary level has undergone a period of major reform beginning in 2010, which encompassed a radical change in the methods for teaching algebra. Despite this reform evidence…

Although extensive research has explored the antecedents of academic procrastination, the role of self-regulatory traits, such as grit, has received comparatively less attention. Additionally, the classroom environment and self-regulatory traits may have joint effects on academic procrastination, but this question has not been adequately…
