Sunismi, Sunismi; Setiawan, Yayan Eryk – Journal of Education and Learning (EduLearn), 2022
This research aimed to determine the effectiveness of the issue, discussion, establishment, and application (IDEA) learning model in embedding mathematical concepts understanding. It is a quantitative study with a quasi-experimental approach. This research was conducted at Malang Islamic University with students majoring Mathematics education…

Webb, David Christopher – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
Even though K-12 mathematics educators have embraced the role of graphing calculators and computers, student use of technology in tertiary mathematics has been slow to implement in the USA context. Enter March 2020, a global health crisis, and the shift to online and remote learning. The immediate and dramatic cessation of in-person modes of…

Zhao, Kai; Mokher, Christine G.; Park-Gaghan, Toby J.; Hu, Shouping – AERA Open, 2022
Under Florida's developmental education (DE) reform since 2014, recent public high school graduates and active-duty military personnel became exempt from DE and traditional placement tests. The legislation also required colleges to provide accelerated instruction strategies for students remaining in DE and offer enhanced advising and support…

Ryan, S. D.; Nawalaniec, T. M. – PRIMUS, 2022
In this work, we studied the use of open education resources (OER) in the form of online modules combined with an open textbook as it relates to student performance and perceptions in a Linear Algebra course. In this approach, we compared student performance and perceptions from three sections of this intermediate level mathematics course. One was…

Interim Findings from the Dana Center Mathematics Pathways Long-Term Follow-Up Study. Research Brief
Biedzio, Dorota; Sepanik, Susan – Center for the Analysis of Postsecondary Readiness, 2022
The Charles A. Dana Center at the University of Texas at Austin launched the Dana Center Mathematics Pathways (DCMP) in 2011. The initial version of DCMP diversified developmental and college-level math course content, separating it into distinct pathways that better aligned with students' career interests. It also streamlined the developmental…

Matthew C. Mauntel – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Games have shown to be great tools for learning a variety of topics, but few games have been developed mathematics topics at the undergraduate level. One possible avenue is to pursue digital game-based learning. The game "Vector Unknown" was designed from a task from the Inquiry-Oriented Linear Algebra (IOLA) curriculum to connect…

Miller, David; CadwalladerOlsker, Todd – Research in Mathematics Education, 2020
Previous studies have shown that students who have completed differential and integral calculus often accept and employ empirical arguments as proofs, but this is not the case for students who have had at least one upper-level proof course; these students tend toward the use of deductive proofs. This paper finds that a majority of the students…

Grove, Michael J.; Good, Chris – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2020
Assessment and feedback is an area where mathematical sciences departments have invested significant effort in recent times. Particular challenges have been identified relating to timely and detailed feedback, both of which are important given the widespread use of formative, and typically weekly, problem sheet assessments to aid and structure the…

Venter, Christiaan – Pythagoras, 2020
Despite the function concept being fundamental to mathematics, an adequate understanding of this concept is often lacking. This problem is prevalent at all levels of education and is reported in many countries. This article reports on a new pedagogical strategy based on exploring photographs or digital images as functions. The objective of this…

Tossavainen, Timo; Gröhn, Janne; Heikkinen, Lasse; Kaasinen, Anna; Viholainen, Antti – LUMAT: International Journal on Math, Science and Technology Education, 2020
In this article, we report from a group (N=98) of students from two campuses of one Finnish university, on their study habits, and to what extent they use different kinds of learning materials in university mathematics courses. Our results show that the older students are more communicative with their teachers, whereas the younger students ask for…

Johns, Carolyn – International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, 2020
Improving STEM retention is a major focus of universities and studies have shown calculus to be a barrier for STEM intending students. Prior to this study, local data indicated students did not pursue STEM fields because they were not passing calculus. The goal of this study is to report on factors related to student success in first-semester…

Dorko, Allison – International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, 2020
In many university mathematics courses, homework accounts for the majority of students' interaction with mathematics content. However, we know little about students' activity as they complete homework. This paper presents an empirically-based model of students' activity as they complete an online homework assignment. I developed the model based on…

Velazco, Derling Jose Mendoza; Martinez, Magda Francisca Cejas; Yanez, Carlos Alban; Ortega, Yanet Marisol – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2020
To prevent difficulties in learning mathematics, effective and innovative teaching methodologies should be used. The present study presents the results of a relational and comparative study between the application of the open number-based algorithm (ABN) and the closed number-based algorithm (CNB) method. The research was of a descriptive…

Linhart, Jean Marie – PRIMUS, 2020
Math courses graded on homework, tests, and a final examination can result in students putting together enough partial credit to pass the class without gaining a reasonable mastery of the course content. Mastery-based testing can help to address this by allowing the instructor to align course grades with mastery of the learning objectives for the…

Grove, Michael; Croft, Tony; Lawson, Duncan – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2020
In response to the well-documented challenges associated with the 'mathematics problem' in UK higher education, many institutions have implemented a programme of mathematics support. Previous surveys within the UK, undertaken in 2001, 2004 and, most recently, 2012, have shown growth in the number of institutions offering such support and indicate…
