It is time to reimagine what is possible and celebrate the brilliance that multilingual learners bring to today's classrooms. Innovative teaching strategies can position these learners as leaders in mathematics. Yet, even as the number of multilingual learners in North American schools grows, many teachers have not had opportunities to gain the…

The problem that inspired this study is that Turkish students' mathematics rankings on global exams such as The Program for the International Students Assessment (PISA) and Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMMS) had been below the average for many years, a problem that may have rooted in children's early experiences with…

Proficiency in foundational math skills for all students is an educational goal. Students will build and rely on these foundational skills for the rest of their lives. A solid understanding of mathematics is needed every day, no matter the job or career. Some students are lacking these fundamental math skills needed for their future. This research…

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate clustering methods within a functional data analysis (FDA) framework for identifying subgroups of individuals that may be exhibiting categories of misfit. Person response functions (PRFs) estimated within a FDA framework (FDA-PRFs) provide graphical displays that can aid in the identification of persons…

Background: Mathematics homework is highly prevalent in East Asia. Teachers and parents expect mathematics homework to improve students' performance; however, studies have not clearly defined the effectiveness of the assignment of different amounts of homework. Aims: This study analyses the differential effect of homework amount on various facets…

Background: When mathematical knowledge is expressed in general language, it is called verbalized mathematics. Previous studies on verbalized mathematics typically paid attention to mathematical vocabulary or educational practice. However, these studies did not exclude the role of symbolic mathematics ability, and almost no research has focused on…

This study aimed to examine the effect of using the flipped classroom model on students' proportional reasoning. In this context, the study focused on students' achievement and solution strategies for proportional reasoning problems. The participants of the study were 56 seventh-grade students, who were determined by convenience sampling method.…

The importance of mathematics in early grades has been well established. Two variables that are associated with mathematics achievement are student-teacher relationships (STR) and student type (students identified with a disability and students not identified with a disability). The current study investigated the interaction between perceived STR…

This study examines relationships between mathematical problem-solving performance (in terms of strategies used and accuracy) and the main cognitive domains associated with mathematical learning (i.e. executive functions, verbal comprehension and social perception) of children with and without autism spectrum disorder (ASD and non-ASD resp.). The…

Mathematics achievement is core to South Africa's readiness for digital innovation, yet current pass rates in this subject are below the global average. Simply attributing mathematics performance to intelligence does not fully account for the multifaceted reality of achievement in the subject. The current study investigated the value of both…

Early detection of and relevant information on children's mathematical difficulties is important to initiate targeted teaching and intervention. This study investigated the extent to which strategy use in single-digit addition provides additional predictive information about 61 grade one children's (6-year-old) mathematical achievement 3 years…

The teaching of first-degree equations is a key point in secondary school curricula and requires the careful planning and selection of appropriate teaching materials. On the other hand, dyslexia, a specific learning disability, is increasingly common in the classroom. Thus, in the context of inclusion, the teaching methodology used by the…

This article presents an instructional technology-based cycle model intended to support and facilitate the teaching and learning of mathematics, particularly calculus. The study used quantitative methods with quasi-experimental research that uses non-randomised assignments of the study group that are categorised into experimental and control…

Augmented reality (AR) technology has potential advantages for application in STEM education. However, existing relevant studies lack a comprehensive quantitative analysis of the impact of AR on student achievement in STEM education. In this study, a meta-analysis of 33 studies published in eight SSCI journals of educational technology between…

We report on a scaled-up mathematics intervention in preschool classes (children age six) in Sweden. In the intervention, teachers at seven schools in four municipalities implemented the Thinking, Reasoning and Counting in Preschool Class (TRC) teacher guide in their teaching of 254 students. Results are compared to a previous randomized…
