Dingman, Shannon Wayne; Namakshi, Nama; Homem, Steven; Pullman, Hailey – Middle Grades Research Journal, 2021
Prior to the 2010 release of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM), the curricular landscape in the United States consisted of an assortment of individual state standards that as a collection reflected little consensus as to the grade placement of specific mathematical content. As CCSSM has now been used as the foundation for…

Peterson, Blake E.; Leatham, Keith R.; Merrill, Lindsay M.; Van Zoest, Laura R.; Stockero, Shari L. – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2020
Ambiguity is a natural part of communication in a mathematics classroom. In this paper, a particular subset of ambiguity is characterized as clarifiable. Clarifiable ambiguity in classroom mathematics discourse is common, frequently goes unaddressed, and unnecessarily hinders in-the-moment communication because it likely could be made more clear…

I. Putu Ade Andre Payadnya; I. Made Wena; Putu Suarniti Noviantari; I. Made Putra Kurniawan Palgunadi; Ayu Dewi Chandra Pradnyanita – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2023
Students' higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) in Indonesia are still low and have not experienced significant development. To enhance HOTS, modern technology-based learning media are needed to support realistic mathematics learning. Innovative learning media can enhance realistic learning and students' thinking abilities. Therefore, the authors…

Devan Heiber – ProQuest LLC, 2023
High-needs urban educators often evaluate students based on lower grade level standards and less rigorous curricula that result in a lack of student self-efficacy and engagement. The problem is that students in mathematics experience transformative feelings of negative self-efficacy that lead to a lack of student engagement and achievement. The…

Liza Bondurant; Liesl McConchie – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2024
The concept of a learner's identity in mathematics is complex and multifaceted. Based on a review of the relevant research, the authors believe most factors that influence one's mathematical identity fall within these four categories: (1) past mathematics experiences; (2) personal beliefs and efficacy; (3) future self-representation and belonging;…

Cecilie Carlsen Bach; Uffe Thomas Jankvist – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2024
When implementing digital technologies into mathematics teaching and learning situations, new representational and communication infrastructures arise that allow for new speech acts and actions. These new speech acts and actions are also referred to as 'representational expressivity'. Such expressivity arises in the intersection of…

Dobie, Tracy E.; Sherin, Bruce – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2021
Exploring language provides us with one approach to better understanding the practices and beliefs of a community. With advances in technology--specifically, computational text processing and machine learning tools--we can now examine written language on a large scale. In this study, we investigate the language of mathematics teaching and learning…
