3. Families of association schemes on triples from two-transitive groupsJose Maria P. Balmaceda, Dom Vito A. Briones, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Association schemes on triples (ASTs) are ternary analogues of classical association schemes. Similar to how Schurian association schemes arise from transitive groups, ASTs arise from two-transitive groups. In this paper, we obtain the third valencies and the number of relations of the ASTs obtained from two-transitive permutation groups. Further, we obtain the intersection numbers of the ASTs produced by PΓL(k, n), PSL(2, n), AΓL(k, n), and the sporadic two-transitive groups. In particular, the ASTs from the actions of PΓL(k, n), PSL(2, n), and the sporadic groups are commutative.

4. On commutative association schemes and associated (directed) graphsGiusy Monzillo, Safet Penjić, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Let ${\mathcal M}$ denote the Bose--Mesner algebra of a commutative $d$-class association scheme ${\mathfrak X}$ (not necessarily symmetric), and $\Gamma$ denote a (strongly) connected (directed) graph with adjacency matrix $A$. Under the assumption that $A$ belongs to ${\mathcal M}$, we describe the combinatorial structure of $\Gamma$. Moreover, we provide an algebraic-combinatorial characterization of $\Gamma$ when $A$ generates ${\mathcal M}$. Among else, we show that, if ${\mathfrak X}$ is a commutative $3$-class association scheme that is not an amorphic symmetric scheme, then we can always find a (directed) graph $\Gamma$ such that the adjacency matrix $A$ of $\Gamma$ generates the Bose--Mesner algebra ${\mathcal M}$ of ${\mathfrak X}$.

5. Inquiry‑based learning in Grade 9 mathematics : assessing outcomes across Gagné’s taxonomyDaniel Doz, Amalija Žakelj, Mara Cotič, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Inquiry-based learning (IBL) in mathematics is a student-centered approach that encourages exploration, problem-solving, and critical thinking, allowing students to actively engage with mathematical concepts and discover relationships through hands-on activities and collaborative learning. Despite the growing interest in IBL within mathematics education, which has demonstrated the efectiveness of this method on students’ achievements, less is known about its impact on Gagné’s taxonomy of knowledge (conceptual, procedural, and problem-solving knowledge). This study, based on Bruner’s instructional model, compares the efectiveness of IBL against traditional teaching methods in promoting mathematical learning across Gagné’s three taxonomies of knowledge in Grade 9 algebra content, using a sample of 258 Slovenian students (132 in the experimental group). Results show that the experimental group outperformed the control group in most areas, with no signifcant diference observed in procedural knowledge. The study suggests that IBL enhances students’ conceptual understanding and problem-solving abilities by fostering deeper engagement and critical thinking but may not have the same impact on procedural fuency, which requires repetitive practice.
