This study examines the impact of tutorial engagement on Collaborative Preferences for Learning Mathematics (CPLM) in a tertiary context. A two-way mixed ANOVA analysed these preferences over a semester in a sample of undergraduate…
Collaboration within mathematics has been established as being effective in providing students with crucial opportunities to develop critical thinking, effective communication, and teamwork skills. By engaging in group problem-solving and…
The persistent underrepresentation of women and other gender minorities in physical science fields has been an ongoing concern. This study investigates gender dynamics in introductory physics laboratory courses, focusing on whether students…
The persistent underrepresentation of women and gender minorities within the physical sciences remains a significant issue. This study investigates gender dynamics in introductory algebra-based physics laboratories, focusing on…
Scientific collaborations shape ideas as well as innovations and are both the substrate for, and the outcome of, academic careers. Recent studies show that gender inequality is still present in many scientific practices ranging from hiring…
There has been an increasing trend of females performing better than males academically across the mathematical engineering courses. To confirm this assumption, final marks of two independent samples of students from Calculus courses across…
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly altered how post-secondary students receive their education. Namely, the transition from an in-person to an online class format changed how students interact with their instructors and their classmates.…
This research aims to investigate the gender-based learning experiences of engineering students enrolled in the Probability and Statistics course, focusing on the four different assessment methods employed namely direct conceptual learning…
Recent studies provide evidence that social constructivist pedagogical methods such as active learning, interactive engagement, and inquiry-based learning, while pedagogically more effective, can enable inequities in the classroom. By…
The debate on the role of women in the academic world has focused on various phenomena that could be at the root of the gender gap seen in many nations. However, in spite of the ever more collaborative character of scientific research, the…
The article focuses on the differences in mathematics performance between girls and boys visible from the first four months of compulsory schooling in the French education system. The influence of gender stereotypes in the evaluation…
This work analyzes the differences in collaboration behavior between males and females among a particular type of scholars: top scientists, and as compared to non top scientists. The field of observation consists of the Italian academic…
Whether males outperform females in mathematics is still debated. Such a gender gap varies across countries, but the determinants of the differences are unclear and could be produced by heterogeneity in the instructional systems or cultures…
This study examines the complex interplay of gender and other demographics on continuation rates in high school physics. Using a diverse dataset that combines demographics from the Canadian Census and eleven years of gendered enrolment data…
Over the last decades,it has been shown that teaching and learning statistics is complex, regardless of the teaching methodology. This research presents the different learning profiles identified in a group of future Primary Education (PE)…
Same-race mentorship preference refers to mentors or mentees forming connections significantly influenced by a shared race. Although racial diversity in science has been well-studied and linked to favorable outcomes, the extent and effects…
Despite the increasing number of women graduating in mathematics, a systemic gender imbalance persists and is signified by a pronounced gender gap in the distribution of active researchers and professors. Especially at the level of…
Grounded in the social cognitive career theory, this study investigates the influence of values on girls' mathematics achievement across socio-economic status (SES) settings, contrasting single-sex and coeducational schools. An analysis of…
Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) has been extensively employed to elucidate the enduring gender differences in mathematics-intensive fields, with a particular emphasis on the complex interplay of motivational factors and extra-personal…
An analysis of longitudinal student Physics practicals data over a period of three semesters is conducted. In particular, we study the association of the gender of students and their Physics practicals marks in mechanics, thermodynamics,…
