“…In general, secondary school students do not develop mathematical competence correctly due to their difficulties with understanding the basic theoretical concepts and the proper interpretations of data (Cipkova et al, 2019). Moreover, a negative perception of the subject, which is dependent on the interests of teenagers (Husein et al, 2018;Abin et al, 2020), has a negative impact on both a student's academic performance (Ozhan and Kocadere, 2020) and their choice of STEAM studies (Hine, 2018). 10.3389/fpsyg.2022.1111600 finishing their math homework was a significant predictor of academic performance (Xu, 2022).…”

Motivation, the teacher–student relationship, the use of resources, and the time spent studying, in addition to the family economic and social context, are some of the factors that affect academic performance and directly influence student failure. This paper evaluates the motivation in mathematics students’ performances by analyzing indicators of the mathematics learning dimensions. A total of 2,018 secondary students were evaluated in this cross-sectional study. Motivation, teaching, resources, and study time were analyzed with a validated 20-item questionnaire. Statistical analysis revealed that student motivation appears to be significantly related to perceptions of teaching practices and the use of resources for study. Students with high motivation have positive perceptions of teaching practices. Gender differences were not observed. In addition, the motivation indicator allowed for grouping students into various motivational profiles.

“…The literature has shown that in the area of mathematical knowledge, the male gender is linked with higher skills and qualifications compared to the female gender (Abín et al, 2020;Gomes et al, 2020). To address this, it is necessary to focus on teaching mathematics irrespective of gender stereotypes and to give the students a more practical, motivational angle (Husein et al, 2018;Maass et al, 2019). The use of FC methodology can provide a good alternative to support this objective.…”

The purpose of this study was to analyse the effectiveness of the Flipped Classroom methodology for teaching mathematics, geometry in particular, in an online environment. Specifically, we measured: 1) the academic achievement of students who were taught in this way; and 2) perceptions of satisfaction with this methodology and the virtual sessions attended through digital resources. For this purpose, a pre-experimental and ex-post-facto design was used with a sample of 113 Secondary Education students. With regard to academic performance, positive and significant differences were found between the pre-test and the post-test, with previous underachievement in mathematics, efforts made towards learning and the educational level of the parents being predictors. In respect of the students' perceptions, the results showed a favourable satisfaction with the use of the Flipped Classroom, where the environmental context in which the educational process takes place interferes with their perceptions. However, slightly negative perceptions were found on the use of virtual sessions with digital resources, where the frequency of use of some resources and electronic devices has a significant influence. These results add value on how to further integrate this methodology in the subject of mathematics, where the use of digital resources to learn geometry helps to improve the different competences and skills of the students.

Estimating the Academic Performance of Secondary Education Mathematics Students: A Gain Lift Predictive Model

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Several socioeconomic, environmental, ethnic, family, and educational factors influence an individual’s academic performance and can determine their school performance in mathematics. Mathematical competence is one of the skills that allow students to build visions of the future from performance in the present. However, the perception that students have of mathematics, in addition to the teacher–student relationship, the classroom, gender, teaching–learning, and motivation are crucial factors for achieving an optimal academic performance and preventing school failure. The aim of the present study was: (1) to examine which variables of the dimensions “Learning Mathematics” and “School Environment” significantly contribute to the marks in the second quarter and quantify their relative importance; (2) to determine the optimal algorithm model for predicting the maximum gain in students’ marks in the second quarter and quantifying it; and (3) to analyze the maximum gain in terms of gender. A total of 2018 high school students in Melilla were included in this cross-sectional study. Mathematical learning and the school environment were assessed using a validated 14-item questionnaire. Gain lift was employed to quantify the improvement in students’ performance. The role of the classroom and teacher–student relationship had a greater influence on mathematics scores than affinity indicators, teaching, study time, teaching resources used, study aids, and motivation.
