Abstract

There are several advantages to the so-called enlightenment in general and mathematical enlightenment in particular. In this study, we developed a specialized test for measuring the level of mathematical enlightenment and evaluated its important components. A cross-sectional descriptive study design was utilized for a sample of students from five different universities in Palestine; the test was applied to a sample of 551 students. Six components of mathematical enlightenment were identified, and all participants were able to score above the set benchmark. A Pearson correlation test, an independent samples test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and bivariate analysis were performed to examine the associations between research variables. The rest of the students in the sample, 348 in total, or 63%, achieved above 70 in the enlightenment measurement patterns. The overall mean performance of the sample was calculated at 72.4%, surpassing the target level of 70, indicating that the students, in general, showed an adequate level of enlightenment in mathematics. It was also found that female students shown higher mathematical enlightenment than male students.
