Aaron Phipps; Alexander Amaya – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2022
Given the simultaneous rise in time-to-graduation and college GPA, it may be that students reduce their course load to improve their performance. Yet, evidence to date only shows increased course loads "increase" GPA. We provide a mathematical model showing many unobservable factors -- beyond student ability -- can generate a positive…

Mary Alice Carlson; Erin Turner; Jennifer Suh; Julia Aguirre – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
Our paper details the ways teachers understand and navigate equity-oriented dilemmas (Berlak & Berlak, 1981) when teaching mathematical modeling and how mathematics teacher educators can support teachers' learning of culturally responsive mathematics teaching. Using Zavala and Aguirre's (in press) framework for culturally responsive…

Sriraman, Bharath – Roeper Review, 2017
Sternberg (2017) summarizes the history of identification of giftedness in the 20th century and presents a case for the shortcomings of measures such as IQ for problem-solving skills required in the 21st century. The Active Concerned Citizenship and Ethical Leadership (ACCEL) model is proposed to replace the outdated construct of IQ, particularly…

Williams, Julie Ann Stuart; Stanny, Claudia J.; Reid, Randall C.; Hill, Christopher J.; Rosa, Katie Martin – Journal of Education for Business, 2015
Frequently in Management Science courses, instructors focus primarily on teaching students the mathematics of linear programming models. However, the ability to discuss mathematical expressions in business terms is an important professional skill. The authors present an analysis of student abilities to discuss management science concepts through…

Kim, Young Rae – ProQuest LLC, 2013
A theoretical model of metacognition in complex modeling activities has been developed based on existing frameworks, by synthesizing the re-conceptualization of metacognition at multiple levels by looking at the three sources that trigger metacognition. Using the theoretical model as a framework, this study was designed to explore how students'…

Camos, Valerie – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2008
This study aimed to evaluate the impact of individual differences in working memory capacity on number transcoding. A recently proposed model, ADAPT (a developmental asemantic procedural transcoding model), accounts for the development of number transcoding from verbal form to Arabic form by two mechanisms: the learning of new production rules…
