Abstract

Mathematical literacy instruction has been proved to be one of the most effective techniques for improving maths ability. Mathematical literacy is predicted to continue to grow in popularity among researchers in the future years. Additionally, this increase may be observed throughout a broad spectrum of scientific fields. There are 445 publications on mathematical literacy, written by 884 writers and published in 203 sources. This study analyzes these works from a bibliometric standpoint (101 single-authored documents and 783 multi-authored documents). The goal of this study is to ascertain which area of mathematical literacy is currently trending. We extracted bibliographic data from the Scopus database and analyzed it using the R programming language^s Bibliometrix and the VOSviewer software tool. The most significant publications, journals, authors, nations, and affiliations globally have been selected using citation analysis criteria. While keywords and phrases are likely to be the primary subjects and conclusions of the research, many of the significant patterns and issues discussed throughout the text are not well reflected in our inquiry. Furthermore, future research should analyze key research clusters for the development of mathematical literacy patterns.
