Abukari, Moses Abdullai; Marifa, Huaru Alhassan; Samari, Jonathan Ayelsoma; Dorsah, Philip; Abudu, Fatao – Problems of Education in the 21st Century, 2022
The concept of hybridisation is one of the most difficult concepts for chemistry students to grasp at all levels of learning. Research showed the students conceptual difficulty ranged from their lack of the prerequisite knowledge for grasping the topic hybridisation to chemical bond formation and orientations of atomic orbitals. This study…

Zhang, Dake; Indyk, Amanda; Greenstein, Steven – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2021
Schematic chunks denote patterns, schemes, or sophisticated rules and knowledge stored in the long-term memory in the form of chunks. We investigated whether schematic chunking is effective in improving the performance of students with math difficulties (MD) and students at risk of math failure, and how the complexity level of geometry problems…

Lin, John J. H.; Lin, Sunny S. J. – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2018
To deepen our understanding of those aspects of problems that cause the most difficulty for solvers, this study integrated eye-tracking with handwriting devices to investigate problem solvers' online processes while solving geometry problems. We are interested in whether the difference between successful and unsuccessful solvers can be identified…
