The values of mathematics in STEM education have become an issue that needs to be considered by mathematics educators. To address this issue, this qualitative study explores four Indonesian high school mathematics teachers' values of the relationships between mathematics and integrated STEM education. The phenomenography research approach was…

Indonesian students' poor performance in the mathematics test of PISA 2015 prompted the decision by the Ministry of Education of Indonesia to pay more attention to the integration of higher-order thinking (HOT) in the curricula starting in 2018. This new regulation emphasizes the need to have a shared understanding of HOT in mathematics on many…

Matters of identity are personally and socially constructed and do not always align with teacher perceptions. When this occurs, it can cause internal tensions in ways students navigate their sense of being in schooling and in society as a whole. These tensions can also impact students' mathematical identity and their motivations within mathematics…

Pre-service mathematics teachers (PSTs) may hold different beliefs about school mathematics and university mathematics and different beliefs about teaching mathematics between high-achieving (HA) vs. low-achieving (LA) classes. Because of the differentiation, the beliefs relationship is complex. This quantitative study administered a questionnaire…

Modern technologies have become an integral part in our society and are increasingly shaping the teaching of mathematics at every level of education. In Austria, the academic school year 2021/22 will undergo an extensive digitalisation; all students who start secondary school will be equipped with a digital device. Our paper reports on anticipated…

Mathematics and science are both essential to the field of agriculture; however, while science curriculum is currently integrated in many secondary school-based agricultural education classrooms nationwide, mathematics integration remains limited. The opportunity for students to engage in real world applications of mathematical content through…

Mathematical modeling has been positioned at the forefront of many educational levels globally because modeling reinforces purposeful problem-solving skills, connects mathematics to the real-world, and makes mathematics more meaningful and relevant. This article investigated K-12 practicing teachers' knowledge and attitudes toward mathematical…

This paper presents the results of an exploratory case study that examined a veteran secondary teacher's knowledge for teaching non-routine mathematical problem-solving with digital technologies. Data was collected through the observation of a veteran mathematics teacher, in real time, solving a mathematical problem with the digital tools of his…

Problems of developing subject education and science have become more acute during different social changes. The most problematic is the teaching of exact disciplines, including mathematical disciplines (mathematics, algebra, geometry), which form knowledge for working in high-tech industries. It is worth noting that the methodology of teaching…

This paper explores students' resistance when they were expected by their teacher to start learning mathematics through investigations, a pedagogy that emphasizes an active and agentic approach to learning in contrast to the traditional transmission-based teaching to which they were accustomed. This resistance is investigated from the perspectives…

Teachers' diagnostic practice on students-difficulties is one of the important steps in designing and managing classroom lessons. The purpose of this study was to explore teachers' perception and practices regarding diagnosing students' learning difficulties. The participants of the study were 28 Indonesian mathematics teachers of Junior High…

Background/Context: Most students with disabilities receive the majority of their instruction in general education classrooms. Yet, general education teachers persistently describe feeling unprepared to academically support students with disabilities in those spaces. Because disabled students are typically excluded from mathematics education…

One of the main topics of mathematics education nowadays is teaching applications of mathematics in various fields, which lead in the recent decades to the development of the STEM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), connecting these disciplines using transdisciplinary or interdisciplinary approaches. Applications of…

Many international studies focus empirically on integrating the history of mathematics in mathematics education. Over the last 2 decades, some studies also revealed theoretical elements concerning the implementation of learning sessions and/or their didactical analysis and effectiveness. This paper has the aim of complementing these empirical…

This article explores secondary teachers' opportunities to learn from an innovative real analysis course, as reflected in their actual classroom teaching. The course used cases of teaching as a site for applying mathematics and developing pedagogical mathematical practices. This article explores particular teaching moments in (N = 6) secondary…
