Main Article Content
Abstract
This systematic literature review examines the intricate dynamics of numerical intuition and number sense competencies among junior high school students. Through an analysis of key themes, including the cognitive development of numerical intuition, the influence of educational practices, socio-cultural factors and individual differences, as well as the challenges and opportunities for enhancing students' mathematical cognition, this study highlights the critical role of tailored educational interventions in fostering students' conceptual understanding of numerical concepts and promoting a positive learning environment. The findings underscore the significance of interactive and adaptive instructional strategies in facilitating students' engagement with mathematics and deepening their comprehension of numerical relationships. Moreover, the study emphasizes the importance of acknowledging and addressing the impact of socio-cultural factors and individual differences on students' mathematical learning experiences, advocating for inclusive educational practices that cater to diverse learning styles and foster an equitable learning environment. This study calls for a comprehensive approach to mathematical education in junior high schools, emphasizing the need for holistic educational interventions that nurture students' numerical intuition and prepare them for future academic success.
