Mathematics Self-Related Beliefs and Online Learning
Ichinose, Cherie; Bonsangue, Martin
Learning Assistance Review, v21 n1 p55-70 Spr 2016
This study examined students' mathematical self-related beliefs in an online mathematics course. Mathematical self-related beliefs of a sample of high school students learning mathematics online were compared with student response data from the 2012 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). The treatment group reported higher levels of both mathematical anxiety and mathematical self-efficacy than did the PISA group, suggesting that online learning can be either an effective or ineffective mode for learning mathematics depending on the experience and expectations of the individual student. This information may help inform online teaching and learning in mathematics at both the secondary and postsecondary levels.
