Opfer, John; Kim, Dan; Young, Christopher J.; Marciani, Francesca – Grantee Submission, 2019
Memory for numbers improves with age. One source of this improvement may be learning linear spatial-numeric associations, but previous evidence for this hypothesis likely confounded memory span with quality of numerical magnitude representations and failed to distinguish spatial-numeric mappings from other numeric abilities, such as counting or…

Wells, Craig S.; Sireci, Stephen G. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2020
Student growth percentiles (SGPs) are currently used by several states and school districts to provide information about individual students as well as to evaluate teachers, schools, and school districts. For SGPs to be defensible for these purposes, they should be reliable. In this study, we examine the amount of systematic and random error in…

Pellas, Nikolaos – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Owing to the exponential growth of three-dimensional (3D) environments amongst researchers and educators to create simulation games (SGs) in primary education, there is a growing interest to examine their potential support in computer science courses instead of visual programming environments. Objectives: This study explores the…

Demszky, Dorottya; Liu, Jing; Mancenido, Zid; Cohen, Julie; Hill, Heather C.; Jurafsky, Dan; Hashimoto, Tatsunori – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2021
In conversation, "uptake" happens when a speaker builds on the contribution of their interlocutor by, for example, acknowledging, repeating or reformulating what they have said. In education, teachers' uptake of student contributions has been linked to higher student achievement. Yet measuring and improving teachers' uptake at scale is…

Akkurt Denizli, Zeynep; Erdogan, Abdulkadir – International Online Journal of Primary Education, 2022
This study aims to investigate how primary school students' three-dimensional geometric thinking changes across grades. The survey model was used, and the study group was comprising of 520 primary school students in a large city of Turkey. In the study, the Three-Dimensional Geometric Thinking Test, which is a paper and pencil test, was used to…

Zhou, Sherry; Huggins-Manley, Anne Corinne – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2020
The semi-generalized partial credit model (Semi-GPCM) has been proposed as a unidimensional modeling method for handling not applicable scale responses and neutral scale responses, and it has been suggested that the model may be of use in handling missing data in scale items. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ability of the…

Yilmaz, Aysenur; Akyuz, Didem; Stephan, Michelle – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2019
Number line models provide a visual aid for students to examine the relationship of integers with each other and facilitate learning of integers and integer operations. Such models are typically used when students are asked real-life problems. This study employs a qualitative case study design to perform an in-depth analysis of how middle grade…

Alnajashi, Sumyah – Journal of Cognitive Education and Psychology, 2021
This study aims to examine the differences in numerosity estimation on a right-to-left number line between second- to fourth-grade students and undergraduate students, together with whether number-line estimation is related to basic arithmetic tasks (addition and subtraction). Hence, 53 Arabic-speaking children and 63 Arabic-speaking adults…

Brown, Reagan D.; Oswald, Frederick L.; Converse, Patrick D. – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2017
Operational validities are important to personnel selection research because they estimate how well a predictor in practical use correlates with a criterion construct, if the criterion measure were purged of measurement error variance. Because range restriction on a predictor or predictor composite creates incidental range restriction on the…
