Abstract The interdisciplinary nature of knowledge is one of the objectives promoted in Colombia, fostering in students the ability to recognize that the curriculum does not work in isolation; if knowledge is complementary, its joint development leads to better academic performance. This research is oriented towards showing an application of the mathematical concept of the slope of the straight line in physics applications, favoring the understanding of the relationships between variables, as occurs with the graphs of kinematics. A group of eleventh grade students from a private educational institution filled in a questionnaire for data collection, based on three situations proposed to answer three open questions in which a reasonably justified answer was required. A part of the group correctly interpreted the graphs by describing the characteristics of the movement in each time interval, but only a few were able to associate the slope of the line as the velocity or acceleration as a function of the variables mentioned in the graph, although their argumentation was based on the angle of elevation of the line.

Abstract Human flow in cities indicates social activity and can reveal urban spatial structures based on human behaviours for relevant applications. Scalar potential is a mathematical concept, and if successfully introduced, it can provide an intuitive perspective of human flow. However, the definition of such a potential to the origin-destination flow matrix and determination of its plausibility remain unsolved. Here, we apply Hodge-Kodaira decomposition, in which a matrix is uniquely decomposed into a potential-driven (gradient) flow and a curl flow. We depict the potential landscapes in cities due to commuting flow and reveal how the landscapes have been changed or unchanged by years or transport methods. We then determine how well the commuting flow is described by the potential, by evaluating the percentage of the gradient component for metropolitan areas in the USA and show that the gradient component is almost 100% in several areas; in other areas, however, the curl component is dominant, indicating the importance of circular flow along triangles of places. The potential landscape provides an easy-to-use visualisation tool to show the attractive places of human flow and will aid in various applications in commerce, urban design, and epidemic spreading.

The purpose of this research is to determine the improvement of students' mathematical understanding ability on a system of linear equations using GeoGebra-based game education. This research use quasi-experimental that was conducted on two classes of the school in Indonesia. Class X MIPA 4 as experimental class and X MIPA 3 as control class. Based on the results the average score of N-Gain value analysis, mathematical concept understanding ability in the experimental class is 0.55, and the control class average score is 0.30. Based on the calculation, the Asymp. Sig. (2 tailed) of 0.000 is obtained. Because the significance score is obtained less than 0.05, thus it is rejected and is accepted. So, it can be concluded that the improvement of students' mathematical understanding ability using GeoGebra-based game education is better than the improvement through ordinary learning. The learning motivation of students using GeoGebra-based game education as a positive learning media, but there is no relationship between learning motivation and students' mathematical understanding using GeoGebra-Based Game Education.

A recently published interview-based test, known by its partly German acronym, MARKO-D SA, is introduced in this article by way of a narrative of its development through various cycles of research. The 48-item test, in 4 South African languages, captures number concept development of children in the 6 to 8-year age group. The authors present their argument for the South African versioning and translation of the test for this country, where there is a dearth of suitable assessment instruments for gauging young children’s mathematical concept development. We also present the findings of the research that was conducted to standardise and norm the local version of the test, along with our reasoning about the theoretical strength of the conceptual model that undergirds the test.

The learning difficulties of the mathematical concept of fraction is a topic that has been studied by different mathematical educators, but still is a relevant topic today, because despite the proposals that have been made to improve learning, they have not been used for all teachers besides those few that are involved in the use of the technology. Besides that there is little educational software that is based on research and is validated to be taken to the classroom. This article shows a virtual system that has been created for the student to interact with it in order to connect his knowledge with his play skills, skills of discovery, reasoning, communication among others and may have a significant learning of fraction
