Mathematics and Statistics serve as foundation for all programs inScience, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM); therefore, lower success inmathematics can also affect their decisions to follow a STEM career [12], but also underminetheir success in engineering courses [13], [14]. The issue of anxiety and lack of confidence intheir abilities can be worse for female students who are often raised under the stereotypic viewthat females are not good at math [15].Enhancing math problems with RL examples can provide deeper understanding of math conceptsand skills [5], [3].
