Citizens are not the only subjects whose literacy needs to improve. Mathematical models, as statistical measures and indicators, can be an important tool of social discovery. Used instrumentally, i.e. to create
This paper pre- sents the conceptualisation of critical mathematical thinking (CMT) and the applica- tion of a literature informed conceptual framework; in particular, it examines what CMT capabilities young students exhibit as they enter formal schooling. We present the findings from one-on-one ...
1. Basic mathematical objects and structures: beads (symbols), chains (finite sequences), aggregates (finite multisets), tables, geometric figures on checkered paper, graphs presented as images on paper and screen, bodily objects–manipulatives; robots that exe- cute chains of commands and react...
In mathematics education, representations are used in place of mathematical structures, ideas, or relationships to concretize, transform, and represent the
This paper draws connections between mathematical modelling (MM) and problem posing (PP) with a focus on posing literacy problems. Both MM and PP are creativity-directed instructional activities due to their openness and multiplicity of processes and products (Cai,2022; Cai et al., in press; Lu...

In the literature in recent years, a number of developmental studies have demonstrated the importance of children entering the school environment with a so
This paper aims to close this research gap. For that, we look into the creative process of mathematical memes to contribute to building a body of knowledge on mathematical memes that, prospectively, could enable researchers, teachers, and educators to profit from these objects in their teaching....

Among existing large-scale evaluations, the TIMSS is relatively well-established in terms of its cognitive assessment, and it evaluates students' mathematical literacy from perspectives of both content and cognition, allowing the cognitive attributes to be properly matched with its items. Many ...
