I would like to thank Anastasia Samaras, Allison Ward-Parsons and Anya Evemnova for their support and review of this paper as my self-study critical friends. Aspects of this study and the online course were supported by the Office of Distance Education and the Center for Teaching and Faculty...
The present paper suggested a questionnaire that evaluated four metacognitive practices of teachers: planning, monitoring, regulating, and evaluating. The four suggested factors explained 54.58% of the variance in the entire teachers’ metacognitive score. A four-factor scale solved the issue of scales...
The q-rung orthopair fuzzy set is a powerful tool for depicting fuzziness and uncertainty, as compared to the Pythagorean fuzzy model. The aim of this paper is to present q-rung orthopair fuzzy competition graphs (q-ROFCGs) and their generalizations, inc
level, thus getting stalled at the second stage of one’s mathematical education. (Among other things, this can impact one’s ability to read mathematical papers; an overly literal mindset can lead to“compilation errors”when one encounters even a single typo or ambiguity in such a paper.) ...
In grade school, long arithmetic is considered a foundational math skill. In the past several decades in the United States, long arithmetic has traditionally been introduced between first and fifth grade, and remains crucial for students of all ages.

This study adopted a content-analysis method to examine the differences in how the topic of functions was handled by Finnish, Singaporean, and Taiwanese middle-grade mathematics textbooks for children aged 13–15 (seventh-ninth grade). The results showed that the three countries’ textbooks used di...

I imagine, given the paper was last updated in 2014, that there’s not a way to do this without adding some new operation such as factorials or roots, into the mix. Still, some time when you need to think of something soothing? Maybe give this a try. You might surprise everyone. ...
Knowing that two halves is one whole is definitely part of this understanding, but seeing where it can come from in the context of paper folding allows an opportunity for a much deeper understanding. The numerator tells that there are twice as many sections as before and the denominator (reall...
