Problem solving is the most important factor in mathematics learning. The results of Trends of International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) and Program for International Students Assessment (PISA) show Malaysian students are facing difficulties in problem solving. This study investigates the ability of foundation level students of a public…

Optimization is a vital mathematical concept widely applied in various engineering fields. However, teaching this subject to engineering students often involves abstract materials, making it challenging for them to grasp. To address this issue, a group of five mathematics lecturers collaborated on designing a practical lesson on optimization for…

Research on teaching anxiety has increased dramatically during the previous two decades. Teachers who experience significant anxiety in the classroom are also more likely to lack confidence in their abilities. How teachers evaluate their pedagogical abilities in areas like TPACK and ICT literacy may potentially play a role in the development of…

The advantages of online education and technology learning aids have been widely investigated and documented to improve student-centered learning, academic success, and a flexible learning environment. However, previous study reported that it is still unclear regarding the secondary mathematics teachers' readiness in teaching and learning…

In each educational curriculum, trigonometry is an important subject at upper secondary schools and pre university level that apply in many other subjects such as algebra, calculus, geometry and physics. Many of students have serious problem in learning the trigonometric materials because usually mathematics educators transfer the trigonometric…

Studies of errors in mathematics are essential for mathematics educators to design and contextualize a whole new instruction accordingly. Nonetheless, less attention has been given to the mathematical writing errors when compared to the mathematical conceptual and procedural errors. It is mainly because the former mistakes usually do not affect…

In order to enhance students learning environments, mathematics lecturers need to prepare suitable materials in their lessons. So improving the materials in textbooks based on learning theories is so important to enhance the ability of students in mathematics learning through problem solving activities. The purpose of this qualitative case study…
