Ruhama Even; Boaz Silverman – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
When justifying a mathematical statement, textbooks often interweave several instances of justification, creating, what we term, "paths of justification." This study aims to characterize the paths of justification of mathematical statements that are offered in eight 7th grade Israeli mathematics textbooks. The study attended to context…

Katja Lenz; Andreas Obersteiner; Gerald Wittmann – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2024
Students' proficiency in the language of instruction is essential for their mathematical learning. Accordingly, language-responsive instruction, which includes adapting teaching material to students' language needs, is thought to promote mathematical learning, particularly for students with lower levels of proficiency in the language of…

Ming C. Tomayko; Jordan L. Almony – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2024
There is a growing reliance on plastic, even though it is a synthetic material that does not decompose. This article presents a series of six mathematics activities that use plastics as the context to teach environmental education to seventh-grade students. The activities can increase students' awareness of the plastic problem while also serving…

Seda Kavaz; Omer Kocak – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
This study aims to investigate the effect of the online flipped learning model (OFLM) when integrated into a mathematics course in an emergency remote teaching process on seventh grade students' academic achievement, their attitudes towards their mathematics course, and their cognitive load. The study was designed as a crossover experimental…

Jaehong Shin; Soo Jin Lee – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2024
In the present study, we illuminate students' multiplicative reasoning in the context of their units-coordinating activity. Of particular interest is to investigate students' use of three levels of units as given material for problem-solving activity, which we regard as supporting a more advanced level of multiplicative reasoning. Among 13 middle…

Ramazan Avcu – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
This study explored four middle-school mathematics teachers' provision of non-examples and instructional explanations in teaching rational numbers to seventh-grade students. The data sources were 8 lesson hours of observations conducted in four different classrooms. Yin's [(2018). "Case study research and applications: Design and…

Przybyla-Kuchek, Julia – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Many approaches have been taken to study gender (in)equities in mathematics education, including studies of students' achievement on standardized tests, participation in postgraduate degrees and careers, participation in the classroom, and students and teachers' mathematics identities. In this dissertation, I used Baxter (2003b)'s Feminist…

Scott Cameron; Carmel Mesiti – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2024
In their daily work teachers are responsible for several complex tasks; might AI be harnessed to support teachers in the challenging work of planning lessons? In this paper we investigate the use of an AI tool, namely ChatGPT, to generate a lesson plan that may be of use to teachers in their planning. A carefully worded prompt, informed by…

Vanessa Gorman; Florence Gabriel; Simon Leonard – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2023
Mathematics Anxiety (MA) is an increasing challenge for mathematics educators and is a barrier to mathematical learning. Through reflection on the implementation of a lesson sequence designed to elicit regular use of explicit metacognitive questions (EMQ's), this paper explores the impact of the incorporation of self-regulated learning (SRL)…

Karoline Smucker; Francisco Sepúlveda; Travis Weiland; Susan Cannon; Stephanie Casey; Sunghwan Byun – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2024
Statistics has been a content domain in the mathematics curriculum for decades. However, statistics is a distinct discipline from mathematics and there are important differences in how one should teach the two disciplines. In this article, the authors consider how these differences can inform an adaptation to the 5 Practices for Orchestrating…
