This study aims to increase students' interest and mathematics learning achievements on the subject of rank numbers, root shapes and logarithms. In this study I used a concept map. Concept maps are a tool in the form of a scheme that states the relationship between concepts starting from the general to the specific ones which are connected through arrows in the form of propositions. Proposition is two or more statements about a concept that are related to words or arrows. Concept maps play an important role in meaningful learning, with concept maps of students being trained to think, in students being asked to think about concepts or events they already know. Meaningful learning is easier to take place if new concepts are linked to concepts that are inclusive, inclusive concepts that are basic concepts that are more general in nature. Concept maps must be arranged in a hierarchical manner, which means that a more inclusive concept is at the top of the map, the concepts below are sorted into less inclusive ones.

Students’ mathematics achievement is the priority for the XYZ elementary school, but particularly in 2015 and 2016 school’s years, there was about 39% student who had poor mathematics achievement and didn’t pass the school’s minimum requirement. In most cases, student’s mathematics achievement is generally affected by two internal factors such as: student’s intelligence and visual perceptual skills. The aim of this research is to examine the relationship between intelligence, visual perceptual skills and the students’ mathematics achievement. The subject of this study were grade two and grade three students with the total sample of 43 pupils. This study employed the Test of Visual Perceptual Skills-third edition (TVPS-3) and the Culture-Fair Intelligence Test (CFIT). The results of this study showed that there was a positive and significant correlation between intelligence, visual perceptual skills and mathematics achievement. A correlation value of 0.664 was obtained for the relationship between intelligence and mathematics achievement. A correlation value of 0.723 was obtained for the relationship between visual perceptual skills and mathematics achievement and a correlation value of 0.903 was obtained for the relationship between intelligence and visual perceptual skills. These findings indicate that the higher the level of the student’s intelligence and visual perceptual skill, the higher their mathematics achievement too.

This study (n = 1,044) used data from the Teacher Education and Development Study in Mathematics (TEDS-M) to examine the relationship between field experience focus (instruction- or exploration-focused), duration, and timing (early or not) and prospective elementary teachers' intertwined knowledge and beliefs about mathematics and mathematics learning. Early instruction-focused field experience (i.e., leading directly to classroom instruction) was positively related to the study outcomes in programs with such field experience of median or shorter duration. Moreover, the duration of instruction-focused field experience was positively related to study outcomes in programs without early instruction-focused field experience. By contrast, the duration of exploration-focused field experience (e.g., observation) was not related to the study outcomes. These findings suggest that field experience has important but largely overlooked relationships with prospective teachers' mathematical knowledge and beliefs. Implications for future research are discussed.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the relationship between mathematic achievement and programming self-efficacy, and adopt a mediation model to verify the mediating role of creativity on the relationship between mathematic achievement and programming self-efficacy.Methods: A total of 950 upper-secondary school students were surveyed using their math test scores, the Kirton Adaption-Innovation and the Programmed Self-Efficacy Scale. SPSS-26 was used for descriptive statistical analysis and correlation analysis of related variables. The PROCESS plugin was used to test the mediating effect of creativity.Results: (1) Mathematic achievement has a positive effect on programming self-efficacy, mathematic achievement is positively related to creativity, and creativity also has a positive influence on programming self-efficacy. (2) Creativity has a mediating effect on the relationship between mathematic achievement and programming self-efficacy.Conclusion: The results revealed that mathematic achievement affected programming self-efficacy directly and also indirectly through creativity. This provided certain ideas for the development of programming education for teenagers. Since students’ mathematics learning and creativity are related to programming learning, it is necessary to pay attention to the integration of the disciplines of programming education and mathematics. Further, the cultivation of innovative thinking is also critical to facilitate programming learning.

Is it possible to teach biology without mentioning evolution? The answer is yes, but it is not possible for students to understand biology without the evolutionary context on which the meaning and intellectual value of biological concepts depend. Meaningful learning of evolution requires (1) that the students incorporate new knowledge into a cognitive structure linked with higher-order concepts; (2) a well-organized knowledge structure; and (3) a positive emotional attachment and identification (affective commitment) to the subject by the learner. Concept maps are useful tools in meaningful learning. We present a concept map that organizes concepts of history of life and the processes that generate it, and the hierarchical relationships among them. Biological evolution is a compelling account of life on Earth and of human origins. It constitutes a unifying explanatory framework that can generate a powerful affective commitment to the subject. The concept map provided here is tied to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).

ABSTRACTThis article presents the results of analysis of an experimental study conducted with a group of 7th grade students of a public school in the state of Pernambuco - Brazil. The goal was to understand how concept maps contribute to the process of acquiring knowledge in natural sciences. The idea is that Concept Maps are a resource that facilitates meaningful learning, in the light of the theory of Ausubel. During the pedagogical intervention, Concept Maps were built by the students. In this light, the results presented in this paper correspond to the analysis of the produced maps, as well as of the prior knowledge of the group about Human Excretion. This theme belongs to the topic "Human Beings and Health". The group's responses were categorized to serve as subsidies to the intervention. We verified that the meanings attributed to the subject being studied need to be organized in the cognitive structure of students in order to provide meaningful learning. This is due to the fact that most students' responses belonged to the functional category, i.e. "the terms defined properly stored, without that students understand its meaning”. We believe that Concept Maps can help students to allocate and meaningfully structure their knowledge, as was demonstrated by the qualitative analysis of the maps made by the students.RESUMOEste artigo apresenta o resultado de uma investigação realizada com alunos da 7ª série do ensino fundamental de uma escola pública no estado de Pernambuco - Brasil. O objetivo foi compreender como os Mapas Conceituais contribuem para o processo de aquisição de conhecimento sobre o eixo temático Ser Humano e Saúde, atuando como recurso didático facilitador da aprendizagem significativa na concepção ausubeliana. Os Mapas Conceituais foram construídos durante o processo de intervenção pedagógica e os resultados apresentados correspondem às análises dos Mapas Conceituais, bem como o conhecimento prévio manifestado pelo aluno sobre excreção humana, um dos temas necessários à compreensão do eixo temático Ser Humano e Saúde. Os dados obtidos por meio dos conhecimentos prévios foram categorizados com base nos níveis de alfabetização biológica atribuídos pelo Biological Science Curriculum Study, servindo de subsídio para inter-venção. Constatamos que os significados atribuídos ao tema necessitam ser estruturados cognitivamente para que o aluno venha alcançar a aprendizagem significativa, visto que a maioria dos alunos utiliza-se de termos incorretos em suas respos-tas não demonstrando compreender o significado dos termos científicos que utilizam. Consideramos que o Mapa Conceitual foi capaz de contribuir para a significação do tema, revelando-se como um recurso didático potencial. Contato principal: [email protected]
