The study investigated best practices to increase students' skills in math fluency and computation and reduce math anxiety. The studies used in this Systematic Literature Review were analyzed using the TAPUPAS framework to ensure the studies chosen were quality and were relevant to the research questions. The results of these analyzed studies…

As young people increasingly need computer science (CS) and other related STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) skills, libraries have been identified as spaces in which this learning can occur. However, librarians often perceive they lack the skills or confidence required to lead this type of education. As a result, funding sources,…

Humans are adept at inferring the mental states underlying other agents' actions, such as goals, beliefs, desires, emotions and other thoughts. We propose a computational framework based on Bayesian inverse planning for modeling human action understanding. The framework represents an intuitive theory of intentional agents' behavior based on the…

Seven questions concerning the role of computation and the role of electronic calculators in arithmetic were posed to a sample of teachers, mathematicians, and laymen. Responses are given in percentage form and typical comments are included. (LS)
