Sabiha Yeni; Nataša Grgurina; Mara Saeli; Felienne Hermans; Jos Tolboom; Erik Barendsen – Informatics in Education, 2024
There is an increasing interest in the integration of computational thinking (CT) in the K-12 curriculum. By integrating CT into other disciplines, the aim is to equip students with essential skills to navigate domain-specific challenges. This study conducts a systematic review of 108 peer-reviewed scientific papers to analyze in which K-12…

Graven, Mellony; Venkat, Hamsa – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2021
In this paper, we share the results of the piloting of national diagnostic assessments for strategic calculation with Grade 3 learners in South Africa. The diagnostic assessment pilot intervention was focused on promoting strategic use of calculation strategies and aimed to move learners on from the concrete one-to-one counting methods that…

Mecca, Giansalvatore; Santoro, Donatello; Sileno, Nazzareno; Veltri, Enzo – International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 2021
Computational thinking is the capacity of undertaking a problem-solving process in various disciplines (including STEM, i.e. science, technology, engineering and mathematics) using distinctive techniques that are typical of computer science. It is nowadays considered a fundamental skill for students and citizens, that has the potential to affect…

Simon Byeonguk Han; Eva Thanheiser – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
Due to the sudden and unexpected move to remote learning in 2020 influenced by COVID-19, both mathematics teacher educators (MTEs) and prospective elementary teachers (PTs) faced a new challenge in creating a productive remote teaching and learning environment. In this study, we used Parrish's (2014) addition strategies and Thanheiser's (2009)…

Baranyai, Tünde; Egri, Edit; Molnár, Andrea Éva; Zsoldos-Marchis, Iuliana – Acta Didactica Napocensia, 2019
Mental calculation is an important competence in everyday life, and it is essential especially for a future primary school teacher. In this research the efficacy of different games, as didactic games, board-games, and mobile games for developing mental calculation skills were studied. The results shows that didactic games and board-games were…

Norton, Anderson – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2019
Felix Klein's Erlangen program classifies geometries based on the kinds of geometric transformations that preserve key properties of their figures, rather than focusing on the geometric figures themselves. This shift in perspective, from figurative to operative, fits Piaget's characterization of mathematical development. This paper considers how…

Wieman, Rob; Freedman, Lindsay; Albright, Paul; Nolen, Deb; Onda, Jessica – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2021
During professional development, the authors learned about strings--a powerful instructional routine used in elementary classrooms to elicit students' mental mathematics strategies and use those strategies to build conceptual understanding. Strings provided the authors with a way to make relatively small changes to guided notes in algebra 1,…

Campbell, Matthew P. – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2020
Number talks encourage mathematical discourse and develop students' reasoning about number and operation (Parrish 2011). In a number talk, a teacher presents a purposefully crafted computation problem to solve mentally. Students share their solutions and explain their processes with the teacher facilitating the discussion through strategic…

Lemonidis, Charalampos; Pilianidis, Nikos – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2020
One of the attributes of rational numbers that make them different from integers are the different symbolic modes (fraction, decimal and percentage) to which an identical number can be attributed (e.g. 1/4, 0.25 and 25%). Some research has identified students' difficulty in mental calculations with rational numbers as has also the switching to…

Luna Radevic; Ilija Milovanovic – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
The aim of this study was to investigate current trends in research of math anxiety (MA) through bibliometric perspective. Three main clusters were formed based on author keywords: cognitive correlates (working memory, attention, numerical cognition, mental arithmetic), psychological factors and effects (self-concept and self-efficacy, motivation,…

Ndlovu, Zanele; Brijlall, Deonarain – South African Journal of Education, 2019
This study explored the mental constructions displayed by pre-service mathematics teachers (PMTs) when applying Cramer's rule. The aim was to reveal the character of mental constructions made around the nature of the solution set of equations and the role of parameters in the solution of equations with parametric coefficients. These mental…

Ruiz, Carola; Balbi, Alejandra – Journal of Educational Research, 2019
Many countries include mental calculation within their curriculum, as the literature shows benefits related to it. However, evidence mainly focuses on the effects of teaching mental calculation on computational fluency. Therefore, the authors aimed to assess the effects of teaching mental calculation on double-digit computation, number line…

Lemonidis, Charalampos; Tsakiridou, Helen; Meliopoulou, Ioanna – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2018
The purpose of the present study is to examine content knowledge (CK) and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) of Greek teachers in number sense and specifically in mental calculations with rational numbers (fractions, decimals and percentages). Examined within the framework of CK were the type of strategies employed by teachers and the extent of…
