Do the Math: Making Mathematics in Wikipedia Computable
IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 2023 Wikipedia combines the power of AI solutions and human reviewers to safeguard article quality. Quality control objectives include detecting malicious edits, fixing typos, and spotting inconsistent formatting. However, no automated quality control mechanisms currently exist for mathematical formulae.

MathE - Improve Mathematical Skills in Higher Education [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2019 8th International Conference on Educational and Information Technology, 2019 Higher education students of scientific subjects often lack the basic mathematical skills to follow lectures and make the most of the lecturer's teachings. It is necessary to identify the gaps in each students' understanding of the concepts and offer teachers adequate resources to motivate and provide their students the skills and competences they miss.

Measuring Mathematical Problem Solving With the MATH Dataset
CoRR, 2021 Many intellectual endeavors require mathematical problem solving, but this skill remains beyond the capabilities of computers. To measure this ability in machine learning models, we introduce MATH, a new dataset of 12,500 challenging competition mathematics problems.

Mathematics Anxiety: Separating the Math from the Anxiety [PDF]
Cerebral Cortex, 2011 Anxiety about math is tied to low math grades and standardized test scores, yet not all math-anxious individuals perform equally poorly in math. We used functional magnetic resonance imaging to separate neural activity during the anticipation of doing math from activity during math performance itself. For higher (but not lower) math-anxious individuals,

Roles of Math Search in Mathematics [PDF]
, 2006 Math-aware fine-grain search is expected to be widely available. A key question is what roles it can play in mathematics. It will be argued that, besides finding information, math search can help advance and manage mathematical knowledge. This paper will present the short-term goals and state of the art of math-aware fine-grain search.

Iconic Mathematics: Math Designed to Suit the Mind
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 Mathematics is a struggle for many. To make it more accessible, behavioral and educational scientists are redesigning how it is taught. To a similar end, a few rogue mathematicians and computer scientists are doing something more radical: they are redesigning mathematics itself, improving its ergonomic features. Charles Peirce, an important contributor

Do the maths: An analysis of the gender gap in mathematics in Africa [PDF]
Economics of Education Review, 2013 AbstractThis paper uses microdata for 19 African countries to examine the gender difference in maths test scores amongst primary school children. There is a significant difference in maths test scores in favour of boys, similar to that previously observed in developed countries.

EAR-Math: Evaluation of Audio Rendered Mathematics
, 2014 Audio rendering of mathematical expressions has accessibility benefits for people with visual impairment. Seeking a systematic way to measure participants’ perception of the rendered formulae with audio cues, we investigate the design of performance metrics to capture the distance between reference and perceived math expressions. We propose EAR-Math, a

Self-Regulation, Math Self-Efficacy, Math Interest and Mathematics Achievement
New Trends and Issues Proceedings on Humanities and Social Sciences, 2017 This study reports the relationships between self-regulation (SR), math self-efficacy, math interest, and three types of pupils’ mathematics achievement. The sample included 14–16-year-old students in the 9th grade (out of 11) educated in seven standard and enhanced curricula schools in Russia (N = 318).
