Chinese primary school mathematics teachers working in a centralised curriculum system
Mainland China has a highly centralised curriculum development system. A study of two schools in northeast China, one in a rural area and the other in an urban area, indicates that the primary mathematics curriculum has been widely adopted by teachers at the classroom level. Feeling the intense pressure generated by the national mathematics Olympiad,1 1. The mathematics Olympiad is a type of ‘extracurricular’ activity that aims to promote student…
Conceptions of Doing and Learning Mathematics among Chinese
It has been observed that Asian, in particular Chinese students frequently outperform their Western counterparts in international academic comparisons. However, it is still open to doubt as to whether they actually possess a deeper conceptual understanding than their Western counterparts and as to whether they would perform as well in non-routine mathematical problems (such as open-ended problems). The reason for such queries owes as much to the …
Self-monitoring as a mediator of person-environment fit
The research literature indicates that students tend to achieve better in a learning environment close to their preference. It was hypothesised that the congruence between the preferred and actual classroom environments would have an effect on students' learning and the impact would be more salient among low rather than high self-monitoring individuals since the latter can more easily adapt themselves to situations. This hypothesis was supported …
