Lili Yan; Chungsoo Na; Jina Kang – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
Collaborative problem-solving (CPS) includes multiple socio-cognitive processes that can be challenging to investigate. Constructing arguments is a key practice at the intersection of CPS and science learning. To understand how students construct arguments and develop science knowledge during CPS, we focus on team synchrony--the extent of…

Nelson, Nadine; Chen, Julian – Language Awareness, 2023
This paper is based on the first author's experience of experimenting with critical language pedagogy (CLP) when she was teaching in the UAE. While prior research focuses mainly on the theoretical aspects of CLP, empirical studies on the effectiveness of implementing critical approaches and developing related teaching materials in Arab EFL…

Khasila Bulan; Chona Mae Crisostomo; Alyssa Danica Estrera; Jecylle Jean Linao; Julia Mitz Mariñas; Zyann Quilicot; Elieza Jane Senillo; Mabet Vergara; Angelito Cabanilla Jr. – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2025
A multiple regression analysis was conducted to investigate what variables may predict the student's self-perceived proficiency in mathematics. Hence, this quantitative cross-sectional survey design aimed to explore the factors predicting the student's self-perceived proficiency in mathematics using gamified instruction. Two hundred twenty-five…

Barbieri, Christina Areizaga; Booth, Julie L.; Chawla, Kamal – Educational Psychology, 2023
The current study assessed whether adding worked examples with self-explanation prompts focused on making connections between mathematical principles, procedures, and concepts of rational numbers to a curriculum focused on invented strategies improves pre-algebra students' fraction number line acuity, rational number concepts and procedures.…

McMullen, Jake; Hannula-Sormunen, Minna M.; Lehtinen, Erno; Siegler, Robert S. – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Background: Adaptive expertise is a highly valued outcome of mathematics curricula. One aspect of adaptive expertise with rational numbers is adaptive rational number knowledge, which refers to the ability to integrate knowledge of numerical characteristics and relations in solving novel tasks. Even among students with strong conceptual and…

Kelly McGinn; Laura Young; Alexandra Huyghe; Julie Booth – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Recent work has demonstrated that having students study worked examples and answer self-explanation prompts as part of their problem-solving practice improves learning on researcher-developed measures of mathematical proficiency. However, little work has been done to date to investigate whether these benefits translate to improvements on the types…

Thurn, Christian; Nussbaumer, Daniela; Schumacher, Ralph; Stern, Elsbeth – Journal of Intelligence, 2022
We explored the mediating role of prior knowledge on the relation between intelligence and learning proportional reasoning. What students gain from formal instruction may depend on their intelligence, as well as on prior encounters with proportional concepts. We investigated whether a basic curriculum unit on the concept of density promoted…

Scaffolded Self-Explanation with Visual Representations Promotes Efficient Learning in Early Algebra
Tomohiro Nagashima; Anna N. Bartel; Stephanie Tseng; Nicholas A. Vest; Elena M. Silla; Martha W. Alibali; Vincent Aleven – Grantee Submission, 2021
Although visual representations are generally beneficial for learners, past research also suggests that often only a subset of learners benefits from visual representations. In this work, we designed and evaluated anticipatory diagrammatic self- explanation, a novel form of instructional scaffolding in which visual representations are used to…

Chen, Ouhao; Retnowati, Endah; Kalyuga, Slava – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
Background: The worked example effect in cognitive load theory suggests that providing worked examples first followed by solving similar problems would facilitate students' learning. Using problem solving-worked example sequence is another way of implementing example-based instruction. Although research has demonstrated the superiority of worked…

Moschera, Cynthia K. – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The purpose of this study is to explore elementary educators' perceptions regarding what it means to conceptually understand mathematics, the emphasis teachers place on utilizing evidence-based teaching processes, as identified as effective by National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), and how these perceptions influence their…

Nagashima, Tomohiro; Bartel, Anna N.; Silla, Elena M.; Vest, Nicholas A.; Alibali, Martha W.; Aleven, Vincent – Grantee Submission, 2020
Many studies have shown that visual representations can enhance student understanding of STEM concepts. However, prior research suggests that visual representations alone are not necessarily effective across a broad range of students. To address this problem, we created a novel, scaffolded form of diagrammatic self-explanation in which students…

Shahbari, Juhaina Awawdeh; Peled, Irit – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2017
This article describes sixth-grade students' engagement in two model-eliciting activities offering students the opportunity to construct mathematical models. The findings show that students utilized their knowledge of fractions including conceptual and procedural knowledge in constructing mathematical models for the given situations. Some students…

Taylor, Kellie; Baek, Youngkyun – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2018
The purpose of this study was to determine what collaborative interventions produce positive effects for students working on collaborative robotics projects for science process skills, collaborative problem-solving, and learning motivation. In addition, the study examined the impact students' prior robotics experience had on science process…

Cady, Jo Ann; Wells, Pamela J. – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2016
The Puppy Love problem asked fifth and sixth grade students to use their prior knowledge of measures of central tendency to determine a data set when given the mean, mode, median, and range of the set. The problem discussed in this article is a task with a higher level of cognitive demand because it requires that students (1) explore and…
