"Kue Putu" is a traditional Indonesian cake that is well-known to the students. Besides, the "Kue Putu" mold is made from cylinder-shaped bamboo culm and possesses the potency for learning geometry in a meaningful way. In addition, Indonesian Realistic Mathematics Education (IRME) is a mathematical learning strategy in which…

Technical skills related to basic mathematics in higher education have been a key foundation for further allied courses across primary programmes. While the traditional learning strategies appear to be inadequate to enhance the basic mathematics skills of university students, digital mathematical games pose the potential to improve such a set of…

The Indonesian education system, in general, still has many challenges in learning science. The results of the 2018 PISA survey put Indonesia in 74th place, which is sixth from the bottom. Indonesian students' reading ability, with a score of 371, is in the 74th position; Mathematics, with 379, is in the 73rd position; and Science, with a score of…

The practice of teacher noticing students' mathematical thinking often includes three interrelated components: attending to students' strategies, interpreting students' understandings, and deciding how to respond on the basis of students' understanding. This practice gains complexity in technology-mediated environments (i.e., using…

This article presents a review of literature exploring five different perspectives on mathematical modeling in mathematics education. Because there is not a single agreed-on definition of what mathematical modeling is or how it should be done, a focused and extensive review of mathematical modeling is essential. The five broad classifications…

While scholars have proposed incorporating the study of complex phenomena such as chaotic systems in high school and undergraduate-level curricula, the literature on this topic is scant and has focused mostly on the analysis of mathematical models--and often only on certain populations, such as gifted students. We report in this manuscript an…

In this study, the conceptualizations used by prospective middle school mathematics teachers when defining, representing, and exemplifying the slope concept and relating it with other mathematical situations were examined. Participants' conceptualizations were identified by Nagle, C., Moore-Russo, D., Viglietti, J., & Martin, K. [(2013).…

This article is a review of the literature on the use of history of mathematics in combination with use of digital technologies in the teaching and learning of mathematics. The review identifies 33 peer-reviewed publications (book chapters, journal articles, and papers in conference proceedings) that address an actual interplay between use of…

Background: Home mathematics environment (HME) research has focused on parent--child interactions surrounding numerical activities as measured by the frequency of engaging in such activities. However, HME survey questions have been developed from limited perspectives (e.g., "Early Childhood Research Quarterly," 27, 2012, 231;…

This study design was an exploratory case study, with semi-structured interviews and document analysis to investigate how STE(A)M education (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics) is implemented in Indonesia. The interviews were held with fifteen participants, with practitioners, experts, and policymakers involved. Ninety-nine…

Reform movements in mathematics education advocate that mathematical argumentation play a central role in all classrooms. However, research shows that mathematics teachers at all grade level find it challenging to support argumentation in mathematics classrooms. This study examines the role of teachers' mathematical knowledge in teachers' support…

This paper reviews systematically literature on school leadership in the context of Indonesian education from 2004 to 2019. Its purpose is to investigate major issues which exist in the school leadership practices in Indonesia and propose some sustainable solutions so that educational policymakers, stakeholders and scholars can improve their…

This article is a narrative case study of language provision for trainee mathematics teachers on a one-year initial teacher training course: a Postgraduate Certificate in Education in London, England. It draws on Heugh's (2018) (Conclusion: Multilingualism, Diversity and Equitable Learning: Towards crossing the 'Abyss'. in The Multilingual Edge of…

Our planet is facing a biodiversity crisis and mathematics is involved. In this article, I focus on reports of a wolf hunt to examine different ways in which mathematics contributes to this crisis, shapes our understanding of the ecosystem and guides future actions. My examination contributes to understanding the ethical dimension of mathematics…

The aim of the study is to conduct a bibliometrical analysis on the published articles related to RME. Accordingly, Scopus database was scanned using the keywords "realistic mathematics education" or "realistic mathematic education" or "realistic maths" or "realistic mathematical education" and a total…
