“…Values vary substantially by country and cultural characteristics. For example, a study of Swedish students suggested that accomplishment and cognitive factors (e.g., knowing the 6 ECNU Review of Education timetables and mathematical understanding) and teacher support were most important (Andersson et al, 2019;Ö sterling et al, 2015), whereas German and Turkish students valued mathematical accomplishment (e.g., test preparation/performance), meaningful learning (e.g., real-world applications, future career, and applicability), engaging mathematics lessons (e.g., puzzles/games), and mathematical understanding and skills (Dede, 2019).
