Abstract

The data from international large-scale assessments, such as The Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS), is often designed and used as an assessment of learning rather than an assessment for learning. This research employed TIMSS 2011 data, focusing on the geometric performance of fourth-grade students in the United States,  to demonstrate how large-scale assessments can be utilized qualitatively to identify students' learning challenges, providing valuable insights to inform geometry teaching practices. Using van Hiele’s levels of geometric thinking as a guiding framework, the 24 released geometry items were analyzed to identify students’ struggle points in geometry nationwide. Our analysis revealed that students performed well on tasks that were visual, contextually grounded, and had clearly defined manipulative expectations.. However, students needed further support to solve items requiring a deep understanding of geometrical concepts, such as finding the perimeter of a square. Additionally, students excelled at solving tasks involving the identification of relative positions of objects on a map and recognizing lines of symmetry in regular shapes. However, they struggled with measurement-related tasks. Our analysis also identified a range of item features that might cause difficulties that impacted the way students responded to these items. Instructional implications for elementary mathematics education are discussed.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the relationship between information literacy, optimized learning spaces, and TPACK Skills on the mathematical digital literacy skills of prospective mathematics teachers. The method is non-experimental research with a causal correlation design and a quantitative approach using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis method. The population in this study were undergraduate mathematics teacher candidates. The sample was obtained from as many as 216 respondents using purposive sampling from public and private universities in Riau, West Sumatra, Bengkulu, Banten, Jakarta, West Java, Yogyakarta, and East Java. The instrument used is a Likert scale on a scale of 1-5, which consists of 24 indicators representing 4 variables. Based on the results of the assumption test, validity test, and model fit test, it can be concluded that the SEM model in this study is suitable and feasible and can describe the theory and findings in the field. Based on the inner model test, it can be concluded that information literacy (LT), Optimize Learning Spaces (LS), and TPACK Skills (TK) have significant effects on mathematical digital literacy (DL) in terms of estimates and P <0.05.  The results of this research indicate that the increasing need for the application of learning technology, especially in mathematics learning, requires increasing the competence of teachers and students in integrating technology in mathematics learning and digital mathematics literacy needs to be the focus of further research.

Abstract

The integration of cultural heritage into mathematics education remains underexplored in the Indonesian educational context, where existing mathematics curricula often overlook the pedagogical potential of local cultural artifacts in contextualizing abstract mathematical concepts. This gap highlights the need for innovative instructional approaches that bridge mathematical understanding with culturally relevant contexts. This study addresses this issue by investigating the mathematical structures embedded in the traditional Indonesian game Bola Bekel, with a particular focus on its potential to represent the concepts of Least Common Multiple (LCM) and Greatest Common Divisor (GCD). The primary objective of this research is to explore the historical value of the game and analyze how its inherent mathematical elements can be leveraged to teach LCM and GCD in a more meaningful and contextualized manner. Employing an ethnographic approach, data were collected through visual documentation, direct observation, semi-structured interviews, and literature review. The findings reveal that bola bekel not only embodies historical and character-building values but also provides a culturally grounded medium for the representation and understanding of key mathematical concepts. These results underscore the potential of traditional games as effective and contextually rich tools in mathematics instruction. This study contributes to the development of culturally responsive teaching strategies aimed at enhancing students' comprehension and motivation in learning mathematics through the meaningful integration of local cultural heritage.
