Determinant Factors Of Mathematics Achievement In Online Learning During The Covid-19 Pandemic, Anwaril Hamidy, Kee-Fui Turner Lam Dec 2022

Determinant Factors Of Mathematics Achievement In Online Learning During The Covid-19 Pandemic, Anwaril Hamidy, Kee-Fui Turner Lam

Jurnal Riset Pendidikan Matematika

Online learning has become more popular during the Covid-19 pandemic, including in mathematics. However, many educators have raised concerns whether there are critical factors determining the mathematics achievement during online learning. This study examines online learning readiness (OLR), math anxiety (MA), online platforms used in learning (Zoom Meeting and Google Classroom) and gender as determinants of mathematics achievement students in online learning. The participants in this study were 197 students of a private university in Samarinda, Indonesia. Online learning readiness and math anxiety were gathered by means of questionnaires. The questionnaires were deemed valid (> 0.500) and reliable (OLR = …


Relationship Between Course Placement Criteria And Mathematics Achievement In An All-Boys Catholic School, Daniel J. Mccue Jun 2022

Relationship Between Course Placement Criteria And Mathematics Achievement In An All-Boys Catholic School, Daniel J. Mccue

Journal of Catholic Education

This study explored the mathematics course placement process for incoming students in an all-boys Catholic high school. The sequential nature of mathematics significantly impacts students’ opportunity to learn; moreover, the mathematics course taken by a student during ninth grade can have far-reaching effects. Previous studies have found that ninth-grade students enrolled in Geometry, rather than Algebra 1, have a greater chance of completing advanced mathematics courses and experiencing increased mathematics success. Thus, adequately prepared students should be placed in Geometry whenever possible. To aid this effort, this study investigated whether a relationship exists between course placement criteria and future mathematics …

This study is a quasi-experiment using a pretest-posttest group design with a population of all gifted students in class X of a State Senior High School in Bali, Indonesia. The sample was established randomly. Observation sheets, pre-test, post-test, and student creativity questionnaires were used, all of which have been validated. The data were analyzed descriptively and inferentially with the paired sample t-test to test the mean difference of …


Teacher Instructional Practices And Student Mathematics Achievement, Michael C. Osborne Dec 2021

Teacher Instructional Practices And Student Mathematics Achievement, Michael C. Osborne

Journal of Educational Research and Practice

Using the nationally representative sample from the United States in the 2012 Programme for International Student Assessment (N = 7,429 students from 240 schools), I examined the relationship between teacher instructional practices and student mathematics achievement. To account for the multilevel structure of the data with students nested within schools, I used a two-level hierarchical linear model in the data analysis. Teacher instructional practices showed statistically significant effects on student mathematics achievement, even after controlling for socioeconomic status (SES) and sex at the student level and school mean SES and whether the school is public or private at the …


The Relationships Between Instructional Clarity, Classroom Management And Mathematics Achievement: Mediator Role Of Attitudes Towards Mathematics, Saadet A. Yagan Aug 2021

The Relationships Between Instructional Clarity, Classroom Management And Mathematics Achievement: Mediator Role Of Attitudes Towards Mathematics, Saadet A. Yagan

University of South Florida (USF) M3 Publishing

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between teachers' classroom management and instructional clarity skills, and students' mathematics achievement as well as the mediator role of students' attitudes towards mathematics in these relationships. The sample consisted of 3536 fourth grade and 3678 eighth grade students who participated in TIMSS 2019 from Turkey. Based on theory, a saturated model was created, and it was focused on estimates and R squares. According to the results, for both fourth and eighth grades, all paths were statistically significant. That means direct effects of attitude, instructional clarity, and classroom management, along with …

If You Are Poor, It Is Better To Be Rural: A Study Of Mathematics Achievement In Tennessee, Theresa M. Hopkins Nov 2005

If You Are Poor, It Is Better To Be Rural: A Study Of Mathematics Achievement In Tennessee, Theresa M. Hopkins

The Rural Educator

Part of a larger research project involving the study of mathematics achievement of middle and high school students in Tennessee, this report analyzes said achievement in terms of school locale and the percentage of disadvantaged (pdisadv) students enrolled in the school. Schools were designated as Rural, Large Central City, and Other Nonrural. Socioeconomic Status (SES) was determined by the percentage of students receiving federally subsidized free and reduced lunch. Schools were then placed into one of three economic categories: Low to moderate pdisadv (less than 50 percent of students receiving free or reduced lunch), High pdisadv (50-74.99 percent), or Highest …
