Celia Gleason; Scott Strother; Nancy Tiên; Rosalind Owen – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2023
Introduction: The proposed poster will describe the observational data collection methodology and preliminary findings from a large-scale efficacy study examining a corequisite mathematics intervention at the community college level. Specifically, the larger study is conducting a randomized controlled trial of the Carnegie Math Pathways (CMP)…

Atsushi Miyaoka; Lauren Decker-Woodrow; Nancy Hartman; Barbara Booker; Erin Ottmar – Grantee Submission, 2023
More than ever in the past, researchers have access to broad, educationally relevant text data from sources such as literature databases (e.g., ERIC), an open-ended response from online courses/surveys, online discussion forums, digital essays, and social media. These advances in data availability can dramatically increase the possibilities for…

Aydogan Yenmez, Arzu – International Online Journal of Education and Teaching, 2022
Quantitative reasoning is defined as reasoning about relationships between items, measurements of objects, and quantities rather than numbers. Both in the transition from arithmetic to algebra and in the problem-solving process, quantitative reasoning is seen as a critical instrument for the development of students' mathematical skills. In the…

Jennifer Shearman – Sage Research Methods Cases, 2022
This case study describes a Q methodology study which captured and analyzed the viewpoints of 45 UK teachers online. The teachers might liken their participation in the study to a "card sort" activity: their relative placement of statement cards revealed their opinions of mastery in mathematics. Factor analysis of the completed sorts…

Haara, Frode Olav – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
This article reports on how a pedagogical entrepreneurship approach combined with fundamental elements of mathematical modelling may be used to strengthen students' development of mathematical literacy in upper primary school. This is done first through a review of the relationship between pedagogical entrepreneurship in mathematics, mathematical…

Karumbaiah, Shamya; Ocumpaugh, Jaclyn; Baker, Ryan S. – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2022
Educational technology (EdTech) designers need to ensure population validity as they attempt to meet the individual needs of all students. EdTech researchers often have access to larger and more diverse samples of student data to test replication across broad demographic contexts as compared to either the small-scale experiments or the larger…

Sarafoglou, Alexandra; van der Heijden, Anna; Draws, Tim; Cornelisse, Joran; Wagenmakers, Eric-Jan; Marsman, Maarten – Psychology Learning and Teaching, 2022
Current developments in the statistics community suggest that modern statistics education should be structured holistically, that is, by allowing students to work with real data and to answer concrete statistical questions, but also by educating them about alternative frameworks, such as Bayesian inference. In this article, we describe how we…

de Oliveira Souza, Leandro; Lopes, Celi Espasandin; Fitzallen, Noleine – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2020
Statistics education has the potential to assist students to develop their identities and engage in problems and social contexts that assist in empowering them to act politically in the future. The actions and narrative reported in this paper seek to identify the way in which teachers could develop and implement statistical inquiries that utilize…

Wilkerson, Michelle Hoda; Laina, Vasiliki – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2018
Publicly-available datasets, though useful for education, are often constructed for purposes that are quite different from students' own. To investigate and model phenomena, then, students must learn how to repurpose the data. This paper reports on an emerging line of research that builds on work in data modeling, exploratory data analysis, and…

Orey, Daniel Clark; Rosa, Milton – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2018
This study was conducted during the first semester of 2016, from March 21st to June 30th, with 104 students, in eight educational centers or "polos," in the states of Minas Gerais and São Paulo. Previously, these mathematics teacher education students had no opportunity to study in higher education in Brazil. They were enrolled in a…

Viswanathan, Sree Aurovindh; VanLehn, Kurt – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2018
Effective collaboration between student peers is not spontaneous. A system that can measure collaboration in real-time may be useful, as it could alert an instructor to pairs that need help in collaborating effectively. We tested whether superficial measures of speech and user interface actions would suffice for measuring collaboration. Pairs of…

Tran, Dung; Tarr, James E. – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2018
Through the lenses of statistical investigations and cognitive demands, we examined bivariate data tasks offered in US high school mathematics textbook series--a popular representative of three curriculum types: traditional, integrated, and hybrid. We developed a framework grounded in literature of association topics for the inclusion and…

Turgut, Sedat – International Journal of Progressive Education, 2019
By using the descriptive content analysis, this research study aimed to evaluate the studies on mathematics education presented within the scope of International Classroom Teaching Education Symposium (USOS) and published in proceeding book between 2014-2018. Findings of the study indicated that the number of studies conducted about mathematics…

Justice, Nicola; Zieffler, Andrew; Huberty, Michael D.; delMas, Robert – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2018
Statistical modeling is a core component of statistical thinking and has been identified by several countries as a curricular goal for secondary education. However, many secondary teachers have minimal preparation for teaching this topic. The goal of this research study is to learn about teachers' perceptions of the role statistical models play in…

Christopoulos, Athanasios; Kajasilta, Henri; Salakoski, Tapio; Laakso, Mikko-Jussi – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 2020
The vast development and expansion of educational technology has led to the deconstruction of various barriers and challenges that the traditional approaches were incapable of overcoming. However, a field that still holds a great deal of interest and needs to be strengthened concerns the practices that surround mathematics education. Digital…
