Arizpe, Omar; Dwyer, Jerry; Stevens, Tara – International Journal for Mathematics Teaching and Learning, 2009
A solution to the Rubik's Cube was introduced to an eighth grade mathematics class. The purpose of this study was to determine if an introduction to a solution to the Rubik's Cube could enhance students' problem-solving abilities, increase their general interest in mathematics, and enhance students' problem solving self-efficacy. Pre and Post…

Winheller, Sandra; Hattie, John A.; Brown, Gavin T. L. – Learning Environments Research, 2013
This study used data from the Assessment Tools for Teaching and Learning project, which involved data on the academic performance of more than 90,000 New Zealand students in six subjects (i.e. reading, writing and mathematics in two languages). Two sub-samples of this dataset were included for detailed re-analysis to test the general applicability…

Carr, Jennie M.; Riegel, Caitlin – Teacher Educators' Journal, 2023
Perceptions and attitudes of math teachers have an impact on students. Research has shown teachers with negative self-efficacy can build fear, anxiety, and even negatively affect students' math achievement. This research study addresses teacher candidate perceptions and attitudes (value, self-confidence, motivation, and enjoyment) toward…

Women and racially and ethnically minoritized populations are underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Out-of-school time programs like summer camps can provide positive science experiences that may increase self-efficacy and awareness of STEM opportunities. Such programs often use the same high-impact…

Stewart, John; Henderson, Rachel; Michaluk, Lynnette; Deshler, Jessica; Fuller, Edgar; Rambo-Hernandez, Karen – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2020
According to Bandura's social cognitive theory, a student's self-efficacy influences his or her academic and career decisions, and his or her performance outcomes; as such, a student's self-efficacy changes with time in response to the student's experiences. Self-efficacy may also vary by academic domain. Differences in STEM self-efficacy have…

Abu-Hilal, Maher M.; Al Abed, Adnan S. – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2019
Introduction: Mathematics is one of the most important academic subjects in school. However, it is one of the most difficult subjects, and both students and teachers face difficulties in this subject. Teachers have difficulty engaging students in learning the subject. Rarely has the concept of engagement been researched in the Middle East region,…

Dofková, Radka – Problems of Education in the 21st Century, 2019
Positive perception of one's efficacy among teachers is a crucial factor affecting the quality of the teaching process. Many research studies suggest that self-efficacy in prospective teachers can be acted upon. It is therefore very important to focus on the preparation of prospective teachers in the context of undergraduate courses. The objective…

Saenz, Marisa B.; Nandakumar, Vandana; Adamuti-Trache, Maria – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2023
Using nationally representative High School Longitudinal Study of 2009 data, this quantitative study examined how math teacher qualifications affect U. S. 9th graders' math achievement and attitudes. The study is guided by the Cognitive Apprenticeship Theory that emphasizes that expert teachers enable students to learn as apprentices and construct…

Wang, Ning; Tan, Aik-Ling; Zhou, Xiaohong; Liu, Ke; Zeng, Feng; Xiang, Jiong – International Journal of STEM Education, 2023
Background: Females are underrepresented in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields all over the world. To encourage more girls to choose STEM majors and careers, it is critical to increase their interest in STEM careers. Many studies have investigated the factors that influence females' entry into STEM fields, but few…

Kim, Yeo-eun; Yu, Shirley L.; Koenka, Alison C.; Lee, Hyewon; Heckler, Andrew F. – Journal of Experimental Education, 2022
Students' cost perceptions have been associated with lower retention and academic performance in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Guided by expectancy-value theory, we examined whether relations between perceived costs and physics outcomes (i.e., engagement and achievement) varied as a function of self-efficacy or task…

Sides, Jacklyne D.; Cuevas, Joshua A. – International Journal of Instruction, 2020
Goal setting is utilized by adults regularly to foster success. It has also been shown to benefit academic achievement. This 8-week study sought to determine the effects of goal setting on motivation, self-efficacy, and math achievement in elementary students. The quasi-experimental study included 70 students in 3rd and 4th grade math classes.…

Ryan, Veronica; Fitzmaurice, Olivia; O'Donoghue, John – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
The end of first year in secondary mathematics education is an important yet neglected milestone in the literature. It represents a crucial period in a students' mathematical lifetime when they have negotiated the physical, academic and emotional bridges between primary and secondary education, bridges which have been shown to impact considerably…
