Abstract

This study assessed teachers' and students' perceptions of the GoConqr platform as a tool to enhance motivation, participation, and comprehension in 8th-grade mathematics learning. The methodology included surveys that revealed that the majority of teachers did not perceive a significant lack of student motivation and commitment in mathematics. Students showed a high level of access to GoConqr resources, with a focus on reading and studying materials. Most students considered the platform improved their understanding of mathematics and increased their motivation. However, technical challenges and difficulties in finding suitable resources were identified. Overall, the study supports the effectiveness of GoConqr as a tool to enhance mathematics teaching and learning, emphasizing the importance of addressing technical challenges and ensuring accessibility to suitable resources for all students.
