In this paper, a simple and multiple linear regression model has been developed to analyze and compare math test results of two student groups in the medical high school "Rezonanca", more precisely the students of the two tenth grades in the subject of mathematics of classes X- 3 and X - 7. This paper also presents some exam exercises,…

The study identified the cognitive mechanisms that underly individual differences in mathematics and reading. There is little systematic evidence regarding the connections between cognitive capabilities, mathematics and reading among high-school students with typical development. Moreover, the study aimed to examine whether or not gender is…

Mathematics is one of the universal subjects taught in schools across the globe. Knowledge, understanding, and application of mathematics are essential for all members of society to fully participate without restrictions in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) careers (Gulnaz & Fatima, 2019). Although universal and…

This study investigated the relationship between reading skills and math achievement among high school students in the Central Delta Areas of Mississippi. The data sources included Reading skills measured by English II Criterion Reference Test (CRT) scores and Algebra I CRT scores from the Mississippi Academic Assessment Program (MAAP) for the…

The labor-market payoff to workers with associate degrees in healthcare and STEM occupations is very high in Massachusetts. We examine whether this induced a growing proportion of students in MA community colleges (MACCs) to earn an associate degree (AD) in one of these fields. We do this by using multinomial logit analysis to compare trends…

UPchieve is a free online and on-demand tutoring platform for students in grades 8 to 12 who attend Title I schools where large shares of students are experiencing poverty. UPchieve matches students with unpaid volunteer tutors one on one and in an online setting. In this setting, students can take advantage of a chat feature and virtual…

Background: The relevance of developing mental activity for mastering geometric concepts relates to the change in paradigmatic foundations taking place in modern education. Such a change is associated with the recognition of a schoolchild as a subject of educational and cognitive activity, the initiator of own activity. Objective: The authors…

The purpose of this quantitative, quasi-experimental, nonequivalent comparison-group design was to determine if "How to Learn Math: For Students" (Boaler, 2018) had a statistically significant influence on ninth-grade and tenth-grade students' mathematical achievement and the achievement gap across socioeconomic status. Participants…

Purpose: This study aimed to know the difficulties and coping strategies of students in learning mathematics, specifically, as a whole and according to their proficiency level. Method: It was conducted to 24 Grade 10 students of Gines National High School S.Y. 2015-2016. Participants were selected using convenience sampling from proficient,…

We study a decade of achievement gaps for fifth-, eighth-, and 10th-grade students in Norway using administrative population data. Norway is a wealthy and egalitarian country with a homogeneous educational system, yet achievement gaps between students at the 90th and 10th percentiles of parental income and between students whose parents have at…

The Green River Regional Educational Cooperative (GRREC) and its partners administered the STEM-CS intervention to support the professional learning of middle and high school STEM teachers in rural southcentral Kentucky counties. The goals of the STEM-CS intervention were to improve teacher STEM-CS knowledge, practice, implementation, and…

Learning mathematics is as much about developing relationships with mathematics as the development of mathematics concepts and skills. Mathematics clubs usually support learners to develop relationships with mathematics through engaging with challenging mathematics problems, exploring mathematical ideas, and communicating and sharing their ideas.…

National and international large-scale assessments of mathematics show that, in most nations, males achieve better results than females and Italy is one of the countries with a greater gap. Many research studies in mathematics education have analysed this issue, using both quantitative and qualitative methods to understand the sources and…

The PISA assessment indicated that the United States performs at the bottom tier among OECD membership nations in secondary school math education. The dearth of math proficiency presented a significant problem for the United States to maintain its future leadership in global technology. The purpose of this exploratory multiple case study was to…

Using the test scores of more than 2,250,000 students who participated in the American Mathematics Competitions (AMC) from 2009 to 2019, this study examined the direction and magnitude of the trends in gender disparity in participation and high achievement in self-select mathematics exams. The results of this study indicated that the male to…
