  • This research investigates the development of elementary students' concepts of line segments, straight lines, and rays, employing metaphor analysis as a research methodology. By analyzing metaphorical expressions, the research aims to explore how elementary students form these geometric concepts line segments, straight lines, and lays and evolve their understanding of them across different grades. Surveys were conducted with elementary school students in grades three to six, focusing on metaphorical expressions and corresponding their reasons associated with line segments, straight lines, and rays. The data were analyzed through coding and categorization to identify the types in students' metaphorical expressions. The analysis of metaphorical expressions identified five types: straightness, infinity or direction, connections of another geometric concepts, shape and symbols, and terminology.

  • In this article, we try to show that concepts and principles in probability can be taught vividly through the use of the Monte Carlo method to students who have difficulty with probability in the classrooms. We include some topics to demonstrate the application of a wide variety of real world problems that can be addressed.

  • The concepts of t-rational extensions and t-essential extensions of modules, where t a preradical for R-Mod, are introduced. The structures of such extensions are determined. Relations between maximal t-rational extensions and other concepts of modules are studied.

  • In this paper, we introduce the concepts of Wijsman invariant statistical, Wijsman deferred invariant statistical and Wijsman strongly deferred invariant convergence of order 𝜂 (0 < 𝜂 ≤ 1) for set sequences. Also, we investigate some properties of these concepts and some relationships between them.

  • In the present article, we introduce the concepts of strongly asymptotically lacunary equivalence, asymptotically statistical equivalence, and asymptotically lacunary statistical equivalence for sequences in g-metric spaces. We investigate some properties and relationships among these new concepts.
