Open access

In recent years, the educational landscape has progressively underscored the holistic developmental trajectory of students, with a particular emphasis on the reformation of secondary school mathematics curricula to bolster mathematical literacy. This research delves into the prevailing issues inherent in the design of secondary school mathematics classrooms, positing enhancements through the creation of an engaging learning milieu and fostering interactive, cooperative inquiry. The findings delineated that such pedagogical strategies significantly nurture divergent thinking, analytical acumen, and innovative consciousness among secondary students, thereby facilitating the actualization of core mathematical literacy within the classroom milieu. Prospective research endeavors will aim to meticulously evaluate the efficacy of these strategies through rigorous empirical scrutiny.
