Item Open Access An Inclusive Analysis of Mathematics Achievement and Attitudes in Diverse Educational Environments(SDU University, 2025) Yuzeyeva Z.This dissertation presents an inclusive analysis of mathematics education by examining the development of inclusive competence in future mathematics teachers within diverse educational environments in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Rooted in national and international frameworks on inclusive education, the research explores how cultural, linguistic, psychological, and regional factors affect teacher preparedness and attitudes toward working with learners with special educational needs (SEN). The study focuses on Almaty and rural areas as case settings, analyzing how educational equity and inclusivity are addressed in mathematics classrooms. A structural-logical model was developed to support the formation of inclusive competence through a task-based, personalized, and culturally responsive methodology. The model integrates motivational, cognitive, practical, and reflective components, preparing future teachers to adapt mathematics instruction for learners with a wide range of abilities and backgrounds. A three-stage pedagogical experiment involving 180 pre-service mathematics teachers and 28 in-service educators were conducted. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected to assess initial readiness, track development of inclusive attitudes, and evaluate the effectiveness of proposed instructional strategies. Results revealed significant improvements in teachers’ motivation, adaptability, and use of inclusive methods following implementation of the model. The findings highlight the importance of localized, inclusive teacher education that reflects Kazakhstan’s evolving educational landscape. This work contributes to the broader discourse on equitable mathematics education and supports ongoing efforts to create accessible and high-quality learning environments for all learners.
