Christof Keebaugh; Emily Marshman; Chandralekha Singh – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2025
We discuss how research on student difficulties was used as a guide to develop, validate, and evaluate a Quantum Interactive Learning Tutorial (QuILT) to help students learn how to determine the completely symmetric bosonic or completely antisymmetric fermionic wave function and be able to compare and contrast them from the case when the particles…

Ali Barahmand – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
This study examines the behavior of individuals when two intuitive rules in their minds lead to two different outcomes concerning a problem. In the absence of the formal knowledge, intuitive rules can affect the mathematical thinking. Hence, studies have usually compared the correct answer of the related formal knowledge with the incorrect one…

Corbit, John; Dockrill, Mya; Hartlin, Stef; Moore, Chris – Developmental Science, 2023
There is mounting empirical evidence to suggest that adults are intuitively cooperative. When presented with a cooperative dilemma between self-maximizing and benefitting the common good, decisions made quickly are more likely to be cooperative, whereas slow decisions tend to favor self-interest. To investigate the ontogenetic origins of intuitive…

Mónica Arnal-Palacián; Francisco J. Claros-Mellado; María T. Sánchez-Compaña – Pythagoras, 2024
The purpose of this article is to conduct a mathematical and phenomenological comparison of three concepts: (1) the finite limit of a function at a point, (2) the finite limit of a sequence, and (3) the infinite limit of a sequence. Additionally, we aim to analyse the presence of these concepts in Spanish textbooks. The methodology employed is…

Itani, Nobuhiko – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2023
This study investigates the relation between Viola Spolin's methodology of theatrical education and Konstantin Stanislavski's. It elucidates major similarities and diff erences between Spolin's theater games and Stanislavski's system in more detail than previous research. This investigation belongs to a research project on the origins of Spolin's…

Reyes-Santander, Pamela; Luci, Gina; Farsani, Danyal – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2022
This exploratory and experimental research aims to describe randomness expressed in 5 to 6-year-old children's drawings. This study considers a six-day activity developed in 5 Chilean kindergartens, with a total of 142 participants. The activity on the mosquito's flight considered the corporal movements to generate the idea of randomness in…

Candace Walkington; Mitchell J. Nathan; Min Wang; Kelsey Schenck – Grantee Submission, 2022
Theories of grounded and embodied cognition offer a range of accounts of how reasoning and body-based processes are related to each other. To advance theories of grounded and embodied cognition, we explore the "cognitive relevance" of particular body states to associated math concepts. We test competing models of action-cognition…

Kush, Dave; Dahl, Anne – Second Language Research, 2022
Norwegian allows filler-gap dependencies into embedded questions, which are islands for filler-gap dependency formation in English. We ask whether there is evidence that Norwegian learners of English transfer the functional structure that permits island violations from their first language (L1) to their second language (L2). In two acceptability…

López Otero, Julio César; Cuza, Alejandro; Jiao, Jian – Second Language Research, 2023
The present study examines the production and intuition of Spanish clitics in clitic left dislocation (CLLD) structures among 26 Spanish heritage speakers (HSs) born and raised in Brazil. We tested clitic production and intuition in contexts in which Spanish clitics vary as a function of the semantic features of the object that they refer to.…

Chaturvedi, Ramesh Kumar; Verma, Vishal; Mishra, Kushendra – Smart Learning Environments, 2022
The objective of this research paper is to check the difference between pre and post-session of the Brighter Minds based Cognitive Skill Training. The exploratory and descriptive research design is used in this study. In this investigation, the nine measurement variables are selected for the study such as memory, confidence, concentration,…

Bao, Lei; Koenig, Kathleen; Xiao, Yang; Fritchman, Joseph; Zhou, Shaona; Chen, Cheng – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
Abilities in scientific thinking and reasoning have been emphasized as core areas of initiatives, such as the Next Generation Science Standards or the College Board Standards for College Success in Science, which focus on the skills the future will demand of today's students. Although there is rich literature on studies of how these abilities…
