Carolien A. N. Knoop-van Campen; Joep van der Graaf; Anne Horvers; Rianne Kooi; Rick Dijkstra; Inge Molenaar – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Even though monitoring and control enactment are key aspects of self-regulated learning (SRL), Adaptive learning technologies (ALTs) may reduce the need for learners to monitor and control their learning. Personalized dashboards are effective in supporting learners' monitoring and can potentially support control behaviour. Allowing…

Patel, Nirmal; Nagpal, Pooja; Shah, Tirth; Sharma, Aditya; Malvi, Shrey; Lomas, Derek – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Readability metrics provide us with an objective and efficient way to assess the quality of educational texts. We can use the readability measures for finding assessment items that are difficult to read for a given grade level. Hard-to-read math word problems can put some students at a disadvantage if they are behind in their literacy…

Liru Hu; Gaowei Chen; Jiajun Wu – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: The existing research on dialogue-based learning and teaching predominantly highlights its capacity to yield productive educational outcomes, yet it often overlooks the pivotal factor of participation equity, which is fundamental to ensuring the efficacy of dialogic teaching and learning. Objectives: In this study, participation equity…

Merve Aydin; Ünal Çakiroglu – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2025
Background: Students experience higher-order thinking skills by finding ways to solve the problem, debugging errors while applying the solution, and testing the solution in programming. However, the inability to create schemas that will characterise programming structures is one of the difficulties during this process. Objectives: This study aimed…

Eniko Orsolya Bereczki; Zsofia K. Takacs; J. Elizabeth Richey; Huy A. Nguyen; Michael Mogessie; Bruce M. McLaren – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Mindfulness practices enhance executive function skills and academic achievement, spurring interest in integrating mindfulness interventions into education. Embedding mindfulness practice into a digital math game may provide a low-cost, scalable way to induce mindfulness and boost game-based learning, yet this approach remains…

Yang, Der-Ching; Sianturi, Iwan Andi J. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2019
When solving a mathematical problem, students who do not have sufficient conceptual understanding may perform poorly and exhibit misconceptions. This study was aimed to examine students' conceptual understanding and significant misconceptions when solving number sense-related problems. An online three-tier diagnostic test was administered to 125…

Hwang, Gwo-Jen; Chang, Shao-Chen; Song, Yanjie; Hsieh, Min-Chuan – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
Scholars have suggested that flipped learning can be enhanced by designing effective in-class learning activities to improve students' higher order thinking skills. Problem posing has been recognized as such a learning strategy that has great potential for improving students' higher order thinking skills. However, it has been reported as a…

Kock, W. D.; Harskamp, E. G. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2016
For primary school students, mathematical word problems are often more difficult to solve than straightforward number problems. Word problems require reading and analysis skills, and in order to explain their situational contexts, the proper mathematical knowledge and number operations have to be selected. To improve students' ability in solving…

Gunbas, N. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2015
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a computer-based story, which was designed in anchored instruction framework, on sixth-grade students' mathematics word problem-solving achievement. Problems were embedded in a story presented on a computer as computer story, and then compared with the paper-based version of the same story…
