There is much to celebrate in mathematics and statistics education in Aotearoa New Zealand. The chapters in this book showcase some of our most exciting practice and research, and they are excellent examples of the work happening in New Zealand schools and teacher education.
Each chapter is the result of teacher–teacher educator partnerships, and...
This paper presents a case study of a secondary school mathematics student in New Zealand. Stories about this student relating to the context of mathematics form his mathematical identities and are told by his parents, his teachers, his peers, himself, and the researcher. The student's negative affective responses to mathematics are explored throug...
This is the third chapter on affective issues to appear in MERGA reviews of research in mathematics education and as such reflects the ongoing importance of affective issues to the mathematics education research community. The first two chapters (Grootenboer, Lomas, & Ingram, 2008; Schuck & Grootenboer, 2004) noted a continuing move away from studi...
Streaming is a divisive pedagogy in New Zealand due to the varied definitions of streaming, the ways streaming is perceived to influence the educational experience of young people, and the complexity of teaching students at a range of achievement levels. This article aims to gain an understanding of secondary school mathematicsteachers? perspective...
This study explored teachers’ self-efficacy in teaching mathematics (SETM) as related to their teaching profile and pedagogical practices. Using data from 327 New Zealand primary teachers, a multilevel structural equation model was constructed and analyzed that looked at the relationships among SETM and effective pedagogical practice scales and inc...
This chapter provides a critical review of Australasian research in the affective domain in mathematics education from 2020 to 2023. We first locate the chapter in relation to broader discussions of the affective domain and previous developments in this area, and then discuss the recent developments in affective research related to students, mathem...
Drawing on a technology dispositions framework, this study examined the changes in teachers’ beliefs, attitudes, competence, and behavioral intentions toward the use of technology in the mathematics classroom, following their engagement in professional development (PD) mediated by GeoGebra software. In a case study research design, 11 mathematics t...
Although it is assumed that parents influence their children’s lives, little is known about how students navigate between their own expectations and their parents’ views of mathematics and how this navigation affects mathematical learning. Using an exemplary case of Philip, we illustrate how he made sense of his father’s high expectations related t...
Results in the International Trends in Mathematics and Sciences Study, and the National Monitoring Study of Student Achievement, have meant there has been recent focus on mathematics education in New Zealand. As with previous iterations of assessment result reports, the quality of teachers, teaching, teacher education, professional learning, mathem...
This chapter backgrounds and critically reviews Australasian research in the affective domain in mathematics education from 2016–2019. It first locates the body of research within broader considerations of an affective domain and then explores the individual affective aspects of beliefs, self-efficacy, identity, attitudes, motivation and interest,...
This paper reports on a New Zealand iteration of the Encouraging Persistence, Maintaining Challenge (EPMC) project, which proposes that students learn mathematics best when they build connections between mathematical ideas for themselves. This iteration explores the actions, perceptions and learning of 12 primary teachers and their 281 students dur...
Show and Tell apps, which record students as they speak and write on a tablet, have a number of affordances for student learning in mathematics. One of these affordances is their utility in engaging students in problem-solving processes. Three iterations of research into Show and Tell apps present evidence that using Show and Tell apps for problem-...
The Ghanaian mathematics curriculum expects teachers to adopt technologies as an instructional tool to assist students to learn mathematics relationally. Teachers' dispositions (knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes) towards technology are critical in translating the curriculum intention into practice. This paper presents teachers' initial dispositions...

This study explored the relationship between parents’ mathematics self-efficacy and emotional arousal to mathematics and their 12- and 13-year-old children’s mathematics self-efficacy and emotional arousal to mathematics. Parental modelling of affective relationships during homework was a focus. Eighty-four parent and child pairings from seven scho...
This is the fourth chapter on affective issues to appear in the Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia (MERGA) reviews of research in mathematics education. In our review of topics and findings of studies that have been published in Australasia during the period 2012–2015, some themes and issues have been identified that appear notewor...
This paper reports on a qualitative investigation into the use of Show and Tell tablet technology in mathematics classrooms. A Show and Tell application (app) allows the user to capture voice and writing or text in real time. Described here are the perceptions of 11 teachers during and after their exploration into the use of Show and Tell in their...
This paper reports on an investigation into the seating arrangements of a mathematics classroom, and the effect of these arrangements on students' affect and learning. A seating arrangement is successful depending on whom a student is sitting near. Students need to be surrounded by others whose behaviour does not disrupt or distract them, and who t...
