Open-access A Manual for Crafting and Composing an Article in Mathematics Education

Abstract

This work is a guide for researchers in the area of ​​mathematics education and aims to contribute to good writing and structuring of journal articles for publication in journals, since authors who construct a persuasive and convincing argument are more likely to influence the readers and gain acceptance within the research community. To address the research question – How to write a good article in mathematics education? –, a non-systematic literature review was conducted, analyzing texts from seven journals that are among the top ten international mathematics education journals. The results offer guidance on writing the main sections of a typical paper – title, abstract, introduction, literature review, theoretical framework, methodology, results, discussions and conclusion – as well as guidance on structuring the article as a whole.
