mathematics education, in the process unearthing common, unexamined assumptions regarding the place and form of mathematics education in contemporary society. In the second part of the dissertation I use the above theoretical framework to re-examine the literature on mathematical word problems. Word problems have interested research
A collaborative model for teaching and learning mathematics in secondary schools. Mathematics pass rates in South African schools, as in many developing nations, continue to be a source of concern for educators and policymakers alike. Improving mathematics performance is non-negotiable if Africa is to ...
Effective Teaching in Elementary Mathematics: Identifying Classroom Practices that Support Student Achievement1 Abstract Recent investigations into the education production function have moved beyond traditional teacher inputs, such as education, certification, and salary, focusing instead on observational measures of teaching practice.
Thesis submitted to the Department of Mathematics and ICT Education of the College of Education Studies, University of Cape Coast, in partial fulfillment ... In contemporary terms, mathematics education is the practice of teaching and learning mathematics, along with the associated scholarly (%) resources. 20 . In .
in mathematics education and in different fields (Alexander and Winne 2006; Sfard 1991). Mathematics teacher education as a field of inquiry and practice rises as a crossover between teacher education and Mathematics education. Pedagogical approaches to addressing the educational skills for effective classroom teaching (Das, 2019).
The high school dropout. rate in 2006 was 6.3% while the chronic truancy rate was at 7.4%. The financial earnings of the teachers and administrators at this district average at. $62, 452 per year. The teachers in this district have been working for an average for 12.5. years.
The study focused on the population of math teachers in public secondary schools in Makati City, Philippines. The selected population is in a location that has the highest per capita income in the country, and where the local government allocates the highest financial resources per student to support education.
Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) is an approach to teaching and learning to counter the boredom and difficulties which tend to occur as a result of traditional, abstract mathematics learning that lacks context (Laurens, Batlolona, Batlolona and Leasa, 2017). It was derived from the research of Hans Freudenthal who believed that

Mathematicians and mathematics education researchers have long claimed that problem solving is the essence of mathematics. Wilson, Fernandez, and Hadaway (1993) expressed a widespread belief when they said, "The art of problem solving is the heart of mathematics" (p. 66). There is consensus among mathematics education researchers that ...
The NCTM (2013) recommends that early years' mathematics education should focus on four big ideas: (1) numbers and operations, (2) geometry, (3) algebraic reasoning, and (4) measurement.
Abstract. This chapter offers an overview of the philosophy of mathematics education. This sub-field is characterised in both narrow and broad terms, concerning the aims of mathematics education ...
In the decade of 1990s, the work of Paul Ernest was. important for the adoption of the name 'the philosophy of mathematics education'. for this area of work. Gradually interest on this theme ...
mathematics education, it will be a very important move to determine the clustered themes in the field and their relationships (Bakker et al., 2021). Another important justification for the trend and issue determination research related to mathematics education is that, the field of mathematics education strives to "produce models" ...
XII). The manual search of the list of thesis and dissertations from selected universities and colleges across the three regions was conducted.

Quantitative finance informed machine learning . Sabate Vidales, Marc (The University of Edinburgh, 2023-10-13) This PhD thesis consists of two parts. In the first part, we develop and study deep learning-based methods for approximating high-dimensional parabolic (path-dependent) linear PDEs parametrised by the model parameters.
The goal of this review is to a dd to the conver sation by. offering a complete overview of AI in mathematics teaching and learning for students at all levels of education. systematic literature ...
Hence, this paper aims to investigate the techniques that can be used for mathematics gamification aiming towards making mathematics education more interesting, more nuanced, and more effective. What led me to pursue this study was the summer experience I had as a Course Teaching Assistant at Bridge to Enter Advanced Mathematics (BEAM), a ...
