This research aims to produce a mathematics module on circle material based on the small group discussion model to improve learning outcomes. The fact is that there are 48% of students who get low mathematics learning outcomes. Another fact is that at the high school level, 62% of students in circle material scored below the minimum completeness…

This quantitative study examines how support facilitation instruction affects high school students without disabilities end-of-course assessment scores and Algebra l-B grades using descriptive statistics, t-test two-sample assuming equal variances, F-test two-sample for variances, and Pearson correlation coefficient (r) analysis. The two-sample…

Students with math anxiety experience low self-efficacy and high levels of distress when asked to approach math tasks and concepts, which often results in poor course performance. Despite the wealth of research on this construct, relatively little is known about how math anxiety impacts math achievement in college-aged students or what types of…

The present study examined patterns of number-related utterances and actions directed to 9-month-old infants by their parents. An ethnically and economically diverse sample of 86 families participated in structured play sessions conducted separately with the mothers and fathers of each infant. Data were coded for eight math talk categories, and…

The purpose of this study was to compare virtual school students' learning outcomes with traditional school students' learning outcomes in Texas. The research design was a quantitative study using a retrospective causal-comparative design. The researcher used archival state assessment data to compare the learning outcomes of K-12 virtual school…

Despite a high rate of concurrent mathematical difficulties among children with dyslexia, we still have limited information regarding the prevalence and severity of mathematical deficits in this population. To address this gap, we developed a comprehensive battery of cognitive tests, known as the UCSF Mathematical Cognition Battery (MCB), with the…

Education has always been and will continue to be the key that unlocks doors of opportunity and success for all. Our national test scores, over the last several decades, reveal that a majority of America's students are failing to meet academic benchmarks and standards, thus limiting the possibilities for opportunity. Mathematics, in particular,…

The purpose of this study was to explore the differences in proficiency levels on the Illinois Assessment for Readiness (IAR) for schools using traditional grading methods versus standards-based grading methods. The researcher was interested in which grading method was associated with a high percentage of students scoring a (4) meet expectations…

There is a body of literature reporting that pre-K programs have significantly large effects on student academic performance in later years. Also, economically disadvantaged students who attended high-quality public pre-K programs were reported to have better academic outcomes than those who attended lower-quality programs. This study conducted…

The purpose of this basic, exploratory study is to examine primary grades (K-2) teachers' perceptions of the self-efficacy of their students in mathematics, whether or not there is a difference in the self-efficacy between students based on their performance, and to gather information about how teachers are differentiating instruction. Forty…

This study investigated the academic success of international students who took the course MAT 111 coded Mathematics 1 offered in the Fundamental Sciences of Engineering Departments of Sakarya University of Applied Sciences (SUBU) Faculty of Technology (TF), a state university in Turkey established in 2018, in the fall semester of 2021/22. The…

The purpose of this study is to examine student and teacher characteristics related to students' mathematics achievement. The study group for this research was composed of 1533 students who participated in the mathematics subtest of the transition from basic education to secondary education applied in 2016 and 36 mathematics teachers who teach…

Bullying generally has been shown to have a number of negative outcomes for student well-being. IEA's TIMSS (Trends in Mathematics and Science Study) 2019 data shows that cyberbullying is correlated with traditional forms of bullying and is particularly relevant in more recent times. The relationship between the two forms of bullying is strong and…

Analysis of consistent Zearn Math users and a comparable group of non-users in a large Southern district shows that students who used Zearn Math had higher levels of academic growth than similar students with no usage. This analysis used the quasi-experimental method, Coarsened Exact Matching (CEM), to examine the impact of Zearn Math across 1,111…

Stereotype threat occurs when educational institutions remind us of the stereotype that men are more successful in mathematics and that women's mathematics achievement is negatively affected. In this study, the effect of stereotype threat on the academic achievement of high school students was examined. In the designed experimental study, there…
