Abstract

This study aims to explain students' attitudes toward mathematics in Southeast Asia, focusing on Indonesia and Thailand. Students' attitudes towards mathematics significantly influence their learning success and academic motivation. This quantitative study involved 494 secondary school students from Indonesia and Thailand. The instrument used was the Fennema-Sherman Mathematics Attitude Scales (F-SMAS) questionnaire with a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The findings indicate that gender did not show substantial differences in Indonesia and Thailand at the secondary school level, but country of origin did. in Indonesia and Thailand at the secondary school level showed more positive attitudes towards mathematics than Thai students as seen from the higher average scores in self-confidence (Indo: 3.57, Thai: 3.11), greater maternal support (Indo: 3.67, Thai: 3.25), more optimistic perceptions about the usefulness of mathematics better preposition more optimistic perceptions of the usefulness of mathematics (Indo: 3.78, Thai: 3.39), and higher motivation (Indo: 3.32, Thai: 3.12). While there were no significant gender differences between the two countries, the stereotype of mathematics as a male domain was more pronounced in Indonesia (Indo: 3.55, Thai: 3.31), highlighting critical areas for intervention in the education system and the promotion of inclusive attitudes toward mathematics. These findings are expected to enhance the formulation of more contextual educational policies and encourage greater interest and achievement in mathematics among students in the Southeast Asian region.

Abstract

An urgent issue related to national identity is the promotion of religious moderation, a responsibility shared by all sectors of society. Religious moderation should not be confined to religious education alone, but rather be embedded across all academic disciplines, including mathematics. This study investigates the trends of religious moderation within mathematics education research between 2019 and 2025, employing the bibliometric analysis method. The review focuses on mathematical content, research methodologies, levels of implementation, and country. Data for the study were sourced from Google Scholar, ScienceDirect and Dimensions AI databases. The selected publications were screened using the Systematic Review Accelerator and mapped through the PRISMA framework, based on predefined inclusion criteria. There are 14 (fourteen) articles assessed. Analytical tools included VOSviewer 1.6.20, RStudio-2024.09.0-375, and Microsoft Excel 365. The results reveal two key findings: (1) the concept of fractions is the most frequently associated with religious moderation practices in mathematics classroom, (2) The predominant approach employed by scholars to examine the incorporation of religious moderation in mathematical education is library research, and (3) the integration of religious moderation into mathematics education is primarily observed at the elementary level and is largely limited to the Indonesian context. Therefore, efforts to incorporate religious moderation into mathematics teaching should be expanded across all levels of education.
