Francisco, John M. – LUMAT: International Journal on Math, Science and Technology Education, 2022
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…

Fransquita Shawntay Simpson – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Educator preparation programs design their coursework and field experiences to help future teachers with knowledge, skills, and abilities to effectively teach mathematics. However, implementation of mathematical pedagogy and content has been seen as challenging for many school systems. Elementary and middle school teachers' experiences in their…

Cox, Sarah K.; Root, Jenny R.; Goetz, Kiersten; Taylor, Kaley – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2021
Mathematics education highlights the importance of helping students understand mathematical content and the ability to think critically about mathematics. Mathematical practice standards outline expectations for engaging students in meaningful mathematics activities to encourage a deep understanding of mathematical concepts and content. For some…

Haara, Frode Olav – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
This article reports on how a pedagogical entrepreneurship approach combined with fundamental elements of mathematical modelling may be used to strengthen students' development of mathematical literacy in upper primary school. This is done first through a review of the relationship between pedagogical entrepreneurship in mathematics, mathematical…

Thomas De Vittori – Discover Education, 2022
This paper reports on an experiment involving 108 sixth-grade French students in which the history of Chinese numeration was used in mathematics education. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relevance of using ancient number systems in mathematics education, which is common in French textbooks. In the experiment a pre-test with usual…

Hornburg, Caroline Byrd; Devlin, Brianna L.; McNeil, Nicole M. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Does the timing of children's formal understanding of mathematical equivalence matter for algebra readiness? A change-resistance account (McNeil & Alibali, 2005) predicts that it is beneficial for children to construct a formal understanding of mathematical equivalence in the early grades before overly narrow operational patterns become…

Malynda Tolbert – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Research suggests that special education teachers lack the pedagogical expertise and content knowledge needed to teach core mathematics standards and to develop the mathematical reasoning of fifth- and sixth-grade students with a mathematics learning disability (MLD). This study used a multiple-baseline design with randomization to examine the…

Cui, Zhihao; Ng, Oi-Lam – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2021
In this paper, we explore the challenges experienced by a group of Primary 5 to 6 (age 12-14) students as they engaged in a series of problem-solving tasks through block-based programming. The challenges were analysed according to a taxonomy focusing on the presence of computational thinking (CT) elements in mathematics contexts: preparing…

Rodríguez-Martínez, José Antonio; González-Calero, José Antonio; Sáez-López, José Manuel – Interactive Learning Environments, 2020
The potential benefits from the introduction of programming environments such as "Scratch" for learning mathematics has reactivated research in this area. Nonetheless, there are few studies which attempt to analyse their influence at the stage of Primary Education. We present the results of a quasi-experimental piece of research with…

Dohn, Niels Bonderup – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
The ability to code computer programs is considered an important part of literacy in today's society. This paper reports from a case study in two sixth-grade classes where Scratch coding was part of six mathematics lessons. The aim of the study was to investigate how Scratch coding affected students' interest development in coding and in…

MacDonald, Amy; Carmichael, Colin – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2018
International research suggests that early mathematical competence predicts later mathematical achievement. In this article, we explore the relationship between mathematical competencies at 4-5 years, as measured by teacher ratings, and later results on Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 "National Assessment Program -- Literacy and Numeracy" (NAPLAN)…

Chan, Jenny Yun-Chen; Lee, Ji-Eun; Mason, Craig A.; Sawrey, Katharine; Ottmar, Erin – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Understanding equivalence is fundamental to STEM disciplines, yet misunderstandings and misconceptions inhibit students from fully appreciating or leveraging the concept. Using the game-based algebraic notation system, From Here to There! (FH2T), students explore ideas of equivalence by dynamically transforming expressions or equations among…

McMaster, Heather J.; Preston, Christine; Wang, Hailan; Perivolarellis, Mersini – Australian Journal of Education, 2021
Australia has a National Numeracy Learning Progression (NNLP) that is strongly aligned with the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics. This article examines how a sub-element within this progression could be impacting students' learning of Science. This sub-element is firmly based on Mathematics education research as to how students build their…
