The Relationship Between Students᾿ Attitudes Towards Problem-Solving and Their Achievements in Mathematics
Different learning theories have attributed great importance to problem solving, but the perception of what influences the problem solving and what problem solving is really about differed significantly between theories. From the conception that only the reproduction of learned procedures is important for problem solving, to concepts advocating […]

Mathematical Knowledge as a Passing Information or as a Useful Tool
For several decades now, the mathematics classes in Slovenian elementary schools have been too oriented towards mechanical learning of concepts and procedures, thus neglecting the understanding of said concepts and procedures. The pupils therefore do not see the usefulness of said knowledge, solving routine problems according to an introduced […]

Effectiveness of the Learning Environment
Findings of Monitoring Mathematics Lessons
As mathematics classes should encourage different ways of thinking, creativity, formal knowledge and skills, and enable students to know the useful and meaningful side of mathematics, it is necessary that the organization of classes contributes to a high student achievement. The high quality classes are focused as a combination of teaching and […]

The Efficiency of Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Grouping of Students in Mathematics
Didaktik in Forschung und Praxis
The questions of grouping students have always been present in the history of education with diverse intentions and according to different criteria. The researchers of education as well as teachers and pedagogues have tried to find out when the grouping should start and what the objective of grouping is, how it should be performed, and if […]

Statistical Literacy Among Secondary School Students
Achieving a Higher Level of Statistical Literacy
The statistical education should be in step with modern didactic trends, which recommend the use of statistics in relation to everyday life and thus develop and improve statistical literacy. But as statistics is made part of mathematics instruction, solving statistical problems tends to be dominated by mathematical thinking, emphasizing […]

Building Mathematical Literacy by Solving Realistic Problems
Didaktik in Forschung und Praxis
Today mathematics is characterized by increasing orientation toward developing the ability of thinking, towards acquiring knowledge that has applicative value in everyday life, developing students’ independence in learning, creation of the conditions that will foster the desire and need for learning the strategies of solving and investigating a […]

Linguistic Conceptualizations of Number
PHILOLOGIA – Sprachwissenschaftliche Forschungsergebnisse
Embodiment is a common element of both abstract mathematical concepts and linguistic schematic structure. Mathematical structures have developed from embodied cognition. Language comprises semantic structures, which relate to schematic structures that also derive from embodied cognition.
The present work investigates Image Schemas in […]

Teaching Statistics and Statistical Literacy
Didaktik in Forschung und Praxis
In real-world environments we are faced with large amounts of information that is found in newspapers, in magazines, on television, on the Internet, and elsewhere, and that is often presented in the form of tables or graphs. Today statistical data are, unfortunately, quite often abused, mainly because of lack of knowledge in statistics, as we […]
