There is a strong need for fifth-grade students to become proficient in mathematical problem-solving using fractional computations because it will have a lasting impact on student achievement. Traditionally, mathematics is taught inside a brick-and-mortar classroom, grounded in rote memorization of facts, rules, and formulas. In recent years, more…

The aim of the current research is to know the effect of teaching mathematics using the PDEODE teaching strategy supported by the e-learning environment in developing the conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills among the fourth grade of the primary stage. To achieve the research objectives, the experimental approach was in its…

PS-I learning approaches with an initial problem-solving phase (PS) followed by an instruction phase (I) can be optimised by providing adaptive (individualised) instruction that builds on students' problem-solving products. A computer-based implementation of both phases offers the possibility of adaptivity at the transition from the…

An issue arising in emergency distance education procedures, such as the response to the COVID-19 pandemic, is a lack of appropriate high-quality content and course activities for high ability students suitable for distance education. In this study, online CAD-based learning experiences structured with the Tinkercad Circuits Platform designed for…

Problem-posing has been regarded as a potential method to engage students in deeper thinking; however, without sufficient supports, most students could encounter difficulties in posing quality problems. In this study, a concept mapping-based online cooperative problem-posing (CM-OCPP) approach is proposed to guide students to complete…

Assessment plays a crucial role in the learning process and significantly impacts students' understanding of tasks and their engagement. With the increasing popularity of e-learning, cognitive assessment methods are becoming more prevalent, and they can help develop students' high-order thinking skills (HOTS). Thinking-Aloud Peer Assessment (TAPA)…

There is a significant body of research that indicates that the use of tablets to learn mathematics in elementary school motivates students to learn. Low mathematical attainment in international benchmarking tests of mathematics in South Africa led the authors to investigate the potential that the mobility of the tablet provided for children to…

The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of online peer feedback in the Information Technologies and Software course on the improvement of collaborative problem-solving skills (CPS), which are considered essential skills for the 21st century. The impact of peer feedback on CPS was designed using a mixed-methods approach that combines…

Purpose: This paper aims to describe the statistical arguments produced by third-grade students (8-9 years old) and to identify the teaching support for collective argumentation in a lesson based on data comparison. A Lesson Study Group researched and planned the lesson around a problem from the official mathematics textbook.…

As digital media consumption becomes an integral part of children's lives, early literacy education must evolve to include foundational contemporary literacy skills. While traditional literacy instruction focuses on reading, writing, and comprehension, young learners also need conceptual knowledge about digital media and literacy before engaging…

Many studies have incorporated concept maps into digital games to enable learners to make connections between subject concepts in the game. However, most learners do not associate spontaneously with the thematic concepts in the game but need to be facilitated by effective scaffolding mechanisms to reconceptualize the learning process and content.…

Mathematics education for students with and at-risk for a disability is important and high-quality, research-supported practices should be used for online teaching--whether intentional or as a result of a global pandemic. This single-case design multiple probe replicated across participants study explored the online delivery of an intervention…

This case study aims to describe the learning characteristics of a child and evaluate his preferences for using physical manipulatives (PM) and virtual manipulatives (VM) to solve fraction problems. The participant in this study was a fourth-grade child. The child was given similar problems to solve using PM and VM. Data sources were observations…

The purposes of the research were 1) to compare the scores of 7th grade students from deductive learning activities management with games on the topic of "Single Variable Linear Equations" to the standardized criteria of 75%, 2) to compare the achievement of the 7th grade students before and after using the deductive learning activities…

The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated digitization, access to IT resources, and digital inclusion in the Italian school system. This paper presents D-UDA (i.e., "unità didattica di apprendimento digitale", in Italian), a digital didactic unit for learning mathematics concepts. The presented approach combines teaching methodologies and…
