Analysis of relations between attitude towards mathematics, prior knowledge, self-efficacy, expected and actual grades in mathematics
(Chapter, 2022)The purpose of this study is to analyse relations between students’ attitude towards mathematics, prior knowledge, self-efficacy, expected grades, and performance in mathematics among 115 firstyear engineering students. ... -
Another look at the two Egyptian pyramid volume ‘formulas’ of 1850 BCE
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022) -
“Anti-Bayesian” Flat and Hierarchical Clustering Using Symmetric Quantiloids

Application of an innovative alignment optimisation method to a cross-cultural mean comparison of teacher self-efficacy: A cross-country study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Teacher self-efficacy is a crucial personal characteristic that is important not only for teachers’ well-being but also for the overall teaching and learning. However, the difficulty to ascertain scalar invariance in the ... -
Applied Mathematics versus Fluid Dynamics The Catalytic Role of Richard von Mises (1883–1953)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)This paper investigates scientific, institutional, and political conflict and collaboration between two different disciplines in the first part of the 20th century: applied mathematics and fluid dynamics. It argues for the ... -
Approaches to Learning Mathematics: Preliminary Evidence of a Concise, Valid, and Reliable Instrument
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)We assess students’ approaches to learning mathematics not only to predict students’ learning outcomes but also for its crucial utilities in the teaching and learning process. These utilities range from evaluating effective ... -
Assessing first-year engineering students’ pre-university mathematics knowledge : Preliminary validity results based on an item response theory model

Asymptotic behavior of an odd-order delay differential equation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)We study asymptotic behavior of solutions to a class of odd-order delay differential equations. Our theorems extend and complement a number of related results reported in the literature. An illustrative example is provided. -
Asymptotic behavior of higher-order quasilinear neutral differential equations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)We study asymptotic behavior of solutions to a class of higher-order quasilinear neutral differential equations under the assumptions that allow applications to even- and odd-order differential equations with delayed and ... -
Asymptotic geometry and Delta-points
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)We study Daugavet- and Δ-points in Banach spaces. A norm one element x is a Daugavet-point (respectively, a Δ-point) if in every slice of the unit ball (respectively, in every slice of the unit ball containing x) you can ... -
Banach spaces where convex combinations of relatively weakly open subsets of the unit ball are relatively weakly open
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020) -
Bounded approximation properties via integral and nuclear operators
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)Let X be a Banach space and let A be a Banach operator ideal. We say that X has the lambda-bounded approximation property for A (lambda-BAP for A) if for every Banach space Y and every operator T is an element of A(X, Y), ... -

Collaborative writing with web 2.0 technologies: education students' perceptions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Executive Summary Web 2.0 technologies are becoming popular in teaching and learning environments. Among them several online collaborative writing tools, like wikis and blogs, have been integrated into educational settings. ... -
A Collaboratively-Derived Research Agenda for E-assessment in Undergraduate Mathematics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)This paper describes the collaborative development of an agenda for research on e-assessment in undergraduate mathematics. We built on an established approach to develop the agenda from the contributions of 22 mathematics ... -
A commentary on the Special Issue “Innovations in measuring and fostering mathematical modelling competencies”
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)This is a commentary on the ESM 2021 Special Issue on Innovations in Measuring and Fostering Mathematical Modelling Competencies. We have grouped the ten studies into three themes: competencies, fostering, and measuring. ... -
A conceptual framework for using and evaluating web-based learning resources in school education
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)Web-based learning resources (WBLRs) have provided teachers with a wide range of new teachingexperiences that are not possible in traditional classroom. However, little research has beendone as to which approach to WBLRs ... -
Convective instability in a horizontal porous channel with permeable and conducting side boundaries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)The stability analysis of the motionless state of a horizontal porous channel with rectangular cross-section and saturated by a fluid is developed. The heating from below is modelled by a uniform flux, while the top wall ...
