Duygu Dinamit; Serhan Ulusan – Acta Didactica Napocensia, 2023
The "proving process" was considered as the stages that should be exist in a proof and in this study, it was aimed to investigate the mathematical proving processes and opinions about proof of gifted students. Case study, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the study. The research was carried out with the students…

Elisabeth J. Malone; Jennifer A. Kurth; Kathleen N. Zimmerman – Beyond Behavior, 2024
While noncompliance is a concerning challenging behavior and commonly reported by educators, its measurement is likely to be invalid and inaccurate given the subjectivity of the operational definition. Engagement is offered as a more valid, accurate measurement that may provide data regarding the amount of instruction accessed by the student. In…

Gündüz, Yüksel; Can, Ertug; Özdil, Selda Örs – International Journal of Curriculum and Instruction, 2023
This study aims to develop a scale to determine the Teachers' Management of Undesirable Student Behaviours. The study to determine the construct validity and internal consistency was carried out in the general screening model. The study groups consist of 822 students (458 for AFA; 364 for DFA) studying at various high schools in the centre and…

Per Haavold; Jan Roksvold; Bharath Sriraman – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2024
Teachers have difficulty integrating proof in their mathematics instruction due to both narrow beliefs about proofs and limited understanding of proofs. Indirect proofs seem to be a particular cause for concern. In this exploratory study, we contribute to the research area by reporting on an empirical study of Norwegian pre-service teachers'…

Nur, Imray; Aktas Arnas, Yasare – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2022
In the preschool period, children's friendships considered a crucial developmental task. Hence, it is critical to evaluate children's mental representations of friendships during this period. This study aims to evaluate the validity and reliability of the story completion protocol designed to evaluate preschool children's mental representations of…

Robinson, Viviane; Meyer, Frauke; Le Fevre, Deidre; Sinnema, Claire – Leadership and Policy in Schools, 2021
Effective leaders solve problems which prevent the achievement of organizational goals. We drew on theories of problem-solving and interpersonal behavior to propose a process model of quality problem-solving conversations, which was used to evaluate three leaders' attempts to resolve problems in conversation with those involved. Analyses revealed…

Dove, Anthony; Borland, Jennifer; Wiley, Caroline R. H.; Moylan, Adam; Thacker, Arthur; Dunleavy, Matthew – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 2023
Simulations provide a unique opportunity to practice newly acquired skills in a low risk environment. For this reason, simulations have historically been used in preservice teacher education programs to enable student teachers to apply generalized pedagogical practices. This pilot study examined how simulations could be integrated with inservice…

Magana, Alejandra J.; Vieira, Camilo; Fennell, Hayden W.; Roy, Anindya; Falk, Michael L. – Cognition and Instruction, 2020
Modeling is an important element of discovery and design processes because it can help individuals to comprehend and facilitate solutions to problems, mediate among mental and external representations, and off-load cognitive demands. However, engaging in model generation, comprehension, and transformation requires the orchestration of domain…

Ku, Chih-Jung; Hsu, Ying-Shao; Chang, Mei-Chen; Lin, Kuen-Yi – International Journal of STEM Education, 2022
Background: Research on teaching and learning for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) subjects has increased, and has demonstrated the importance of integrating interdisciplinary knowledge and skills. Our research model was based on the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and the data were analyzed by partial least…

Kalayci, Özlem; Gün, Özge – International Journal for Mathematics Teaching and Learning, 2022
There exist many studies on modeling competencies and their promotion; however, there is a need to investigate what modeling competencies are and how they vary in lower and higher-achieving groups of students in mathematics within the current modeling literature domain. This study examined how mathematical modeling competencies were displayed in…

Bütüner, Suphi Önder; Baki, Adnan – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2020
In this action study, instructional environments were enriched with activities related to the history of mathematics in order to deepen students' beliefs about mathematics and reveal for them fun, interesting, and useful activities. The study enrolled twenty-four 8th-grade students. Data were collected by using multiple data collection tools. The…

Suparman, Achmad Rante; Rohaeti, Eli; Wening, Sri – European Journal of Educational Research, 2022
A socio-scientific issue is one of the learning techniques used today, which uses various scientific sources to make students think scientifically to conduct a dialogue and discuss solving a problem. Various problems in socio-scientific are controversial, requiring reasoning, and ethical evaluation in the decision-making process. A conflict…

Burkholder, E. W.; Miles, J. K.; Layden, T. J.; Wang, K. D.; Fritz, A. V.; Wieman, C. E. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2020
We introduce a template to (i) scaffold the problem solving process for students in the physics 1 course, and (ii) serve as a generic rubric for measuring how expertlike students are in their problem solving. This template is based on empirical studies of the problem solving practices of expert scientists and engineers, unlike most existing…

Kotoka, Love; Kriek, Jeanne – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2022
Learners underperform in stoichiometry as they lack conceptual reasoning of the underlying concepts and the ability to solve stoichiometric problems. Therefore, it was necessary to determine if there is a statistical correlation between problem-solving skills and conceptual reasoning in stoichiometry and if so, whether one can significantly…
