The complexity of teaching and learning mathematics in contexts of language diversity has long been acknowledged. This study provides an overview of research that has been conducted in sub-Saharan Africa from 2010 to 2023 on language and multilingualism in the teaching and learning of mathematics. The surveyed research outputs were sourced from…

This study investigated learners' experiences and understanding of transformation geometry using two instructional strategies: Conventional Van Hiele Phased Instruction (CVHPI) and TechnologyEnhanced Van Hiele Phased Instruction (TVHPI), incorporating GeoGebra as a digital tool. Through semi-structured interviews, qualitative data were collected…

We conducted a scoping review on game-based learning (GBL) for mathematics teacher education. In recent decades, GBL has been largely applied to K-12 education contexts. GBL has aimed to promote students' deeper understanding of mathematics knowledge via game-based activities. With the evolving needs of GBL in mathematics education, recent…

Several studies are examining the problem of mathematics learning devices, but few have specifically explored the devices that are incorporated with technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK). Therefore, this study aims to descriptively explore the incorporation of TPACK in mathematics learning devices. An exploratory descriptive method…

This study of the usage and effectiveness of Exact Path is based on student data from a large school system in the United States and student-level application usage data from Exact Path pilot implementation in the 2022-23 school year. Edmentum's Exact Path program personalizes digital student learning resources through diagnostic assessments,…

Africanised play is a pedagogical transformation that stresses integrating play pedagogies, African culture and digital learning within the mathematical curriculum. This transformation contributes to learners developing problem-solving, mathematical, digital skills and appreciating culture. Given that, there still needs to be more knowledge on the…

Background/purpose: In modern mathematical education, it is important to develop students' ability to understand the fundamental properties of geometric objects deeply. This makes it relevant to study the additivity of the area of triangles as a property inherent in various kinds of quantities and ways of representing it methodologically in the…

Background/purpose: This study aims to improve students' mathematical critical-numeracy thinking skills by applying the Problem-Based Learning-Autograph model. Materials/methods: This study used a mixed method with a sequential explanatory strategy, and the research design is a one-group pretest-posttest design. The population included students…

Teachers' perceptions and practices of inclusive education shape the way diverse students with disabilities access regular education, which impacts their academic and social performance. The purpose of this exploratory case study is to examine the perceptions of inclusion and practices that general education and special education teachers use in…

As they progress to more abstract and complex levels of mathematics, students with learning disabilities (and other students who are struggling with mathematics) can face challenges related to memory and cognition, as well as potential difficulties with math anxiety. For example, quadratic functions can present several challenges for many…

Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) approach and project-based learning (PBL) can be integrated as complementary teaching method to actively engage students in addressing authentic challenges within an educational setting. This study aimed at developing students' skills as they work on their practical projects and at…

This paper examines the phenomenon of homogenization in higher mathematics education from three dimensions: textbooks, teaching methods, and assessment, identifying rigid educational policies, limited resources, and entrenched teacher mindsets as underlying causes. It proposes four reform pathways: differentiated instruction, diverse teaching…

Cross-cultural lesson study has emerged as a promising approach for enhancing teacher professional development. While research has highlighted its potential, the specific mechanisms through which cross-cultural lesson study influences teacher learning remain unclear. This study examines a collaborative cross-cultural lesson study initiative…

Background: A strong evidence base for relationship-based, individualized tutoring programs -- especially in early grades -- has accumulated in recent years (Heinrich et al., 2014; Nickow et al., 2020; Wanzek et al., 2016). However, scaling implementation of best-practice tutoring programs (i.e., during the school day at least, three times per…

Integrating mobile learning technologies in mathematics education in light of the pandemic, natural disasters, and recent technological developments is a significant shift in practice. This research applied the systematic review approach to assess the impact of mobile learning aids on students' learning attitudes, motivation, and performance in…
