Flipped classroom is one of the teaching models that swaps students' learning space between learning in and before class. GeoGebra software is a dynamic math software that positively affects math teaching, especially geometry, and develops students' problem-solving abilities. The study was conducted to test the effect of combining flipped…

In this article, the history of the golden ratio is discussed to demonstrate how exploring this ratio would be of value in a secondary mathematics classroom. Following this, a mathematical activity related to the golden ratio that is suitable for students from Year 7 to Year 12 is outlined.

There are strong motivations to implement integrated STEAM activities that engage with key ideas in mathematics. In integrating mathematics with other STEM disciplines, however, epistemic tensions can emerge. Rather than attempting to suppress, avoid, or adjudicate these tensions, we propose a strategy of "epistemic rekeying," in which…

The use of instructional videos is rampant in education; however, their interaction is limited by weak instructional design. Gagne has never insisted on using his renowned 9 Events of Instruction slavishly in situations as a viable paradigm for utilization in video design. Connecting grade level, video length, and interaction, this study seeks to…

The evolution of U.S. secondary school mathematics requirements throughout the 20th century included a significant shift towards more rigorous standards by the end of the century. Initially, many states required minimal or no mathematics for high school graduation. However, reforms led most states to adopt a 3-year mathematics requirement, with…

This study aims to reveal how model eliciting principles are used in the process of designing, applying, and evaluating teacher candidates' model-eliciting activities. This study was conducted in three stages in a multi-tiered teaching experiment. Firstly, 15 teacher candidates designed activities for Grade 7 students after they were trained on…

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 teachers reported improved skills in using technology as a direct result of teaching virtually during the pandemic (Bushweller, 2020). The authors wondered which uses of technology would continue as teachers transitioned back into face-to-face classrooms. Recognizing that mere incorporation of technology into instruction does not guarantee…

The paper presents an analysis of elementary grade mathematics teaching in India focusing on mathematical reasoning. Mathematical reasoning is an important tool to make sense of mathematical ideas, which in turn makes mathematics more accessible to learners and promotes social equality. The paper analyzes 112 lessons from Grades 1 to 8 by 21…

This report delves into the cost and effectiveness of the ASSISTments program as an online math support tool. Aiming to replicate previous findings, the study focused on the impact of ASSISTments on student learning in seventh-grade classrooms. The report outlines the study's objectives, setting, and participants alongside the study design,…

This study examined whether learning with heuristic worked examples can improve students' competency in solving reality-based tasks in mathematics (mathematical modeling competency). We randomly assigned 134 students in Grade 5 and 180 students in Grade 7 to one of three conditions: control condition (students worked on reality-based tasks),…

Mathematical problem posing was advocated as one major area needing systematic investigation. It was also recommended that school mathematics learning should involve experientially real problem situations and using handheld devices to bridge across formal and informal contexts for mathematical learning. This research study explored how 11 middle…

The authors present a new classroom-tested lesson that was designed to engage students in the joy of mathematical inquiry through a card game, Frustration, while building number sense, understanding of uncertainty, statistical reasoning, and discourse skills. The purpose in developing and sharing these lessons is to highlight how games of chance…

Background: Groupwork is a desirable activity in mathematics classrooms for the opportunity it creates for collaborative reasoning and interdependence. Correlations between group-level processes and outcomes have helped characterize the features of more successful groups, but group-level constructs can obscure how students negotiate ideas. This…

As it is a common practice in Dual Language Education (DLE) classrooms throughout the United States, language separation tends to be a planning policy that is usually enforced by curriculum designers, school administrators, and bilingual teachers. However, research has shown that DLE teachers and students have the potential of teaching and…
