Although the relationship between reading fluency and high-stakes test achievement is well known, studies were conducted in similar contexts. This correlational study aimed to investigate the relationship between reading error types (insertions, omissions, mispronunciations, and total) and reading fluency (rate, accuracy, and prosody) in narrative…

The purpose of this research was to develop and evaluate a number sense-based curriculum aiming to eliminate student errors due to mathematical misconceptions. A mixed method research model as one of the qualitative research approaches was adopted in this study aiming to develop a number sense-based instructional design to eliminate student errors…

Many countries do not include the normal distribution concept in their middle school mathematics curriculum, but on the grounds that middle school mathematics teachers need to know more than just mathematics, researchers argue that preservice teachers (PTs) ought to have knowledge and skills in this area. This study was aimed to investigate PTs'…

The study aimed to determine the mistakes of students in operations with algebraic expressions, and their misconceptions that may lead to errors. The study adopted case study method, one of the qualitative research models. The participants were composed of 48 (24 boys, 24 girls) randomly selected among 8th grade students in three different classes…

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of positive error climate in classrooms on middle school students' error orientations and attitudes towards mathematics.

This study investigated the methods that pre-service teachers employed while finding volume using integration and the reasons why they utilized these methods (problems); the accuracy of their solutions was also analyzed in this study. Case study design, a qualitative research method, was used for this study. 45 sophomore pre-service teachers…

This study aims to determine how prospective middle school mathematics teachers respond to students' errors in the questions about the equal sign. This study utilizes case study method. In this case study, hypothetical scenarios, involving three common error types related to the equal sign, have been prepared by using the possible examples of…

This study seeks to ascertain the degree to which context-based items are offered in Turkish mathematics textbooks as well as the quality of the items in terms of item writing guidelines, whether or not they are given as traditional or context-based. A qualitative research approach is used in this study. The eighth-grade mathematics textbook used…

This study investigated the role of the bar model method, a significant aspect of the Singapore mathematics curriculum, in the remediation of seventh-grade students' errors on algebra word problems. To accomplish this purpose, we first assessed students' errors on a written test involving algebra problems and identified ten students based on the…

The present study investigates the understanding of the equals sign among middle school students. The study data were gathered from a total of 433 middle school students (111 in the fifth grade, 106 in the sixth grade, 95 in the seventh grade and 121 in the eighth grade) using a ten-item equals sign test developed by the researcher. The study…

The aim of this study is to examine the error approach of middle school teachers and their noticing of their approaches. The study was designed as a case study, which is a qualitative research method, and conducted through four middle school mathematics teachers during the pandemic. The data regarding the study were gathered via in class video…

Due to the fact that the pandemic process did not occur in a predictable time frame, various difficulties have arisen in the field of education. This is also true in mathematics education, and concretization has been one of the biggest obstacles. This situation paved the way for concept learning errors that may occur in students. There are some…

In the present study we try to highlight prospective mathematics teachers' ability to identify mistakes of sixth grade students related to angle concept. And also we examined prospective mathematics teachers' knowledge of angle concept. Study was carried out with 30 sixth-grade students and 38 prospective mathematics teachers. Sixth grade students…
