Nzuki, Francis – International Journal of Information and Communication Technology Education, 2016
This study examines graphing calculator affordances in learning mathematics among college precalculus students. The study draws from the Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) and the "Intelligent Technology" theoretical framework proposed by Salomon, Perkins, and Globerson (1991). From these perspectives the effects "with" the graphing…

Martinez-Maldonado, Roberto; Clayphan, Andrew; Yacef, Kalina; Kay, Judy – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2015
The teacher has very important roles in the classroom, particularly as manager of most resources for learning activities and in providing timely feedback that can enhance learning. But teachers need to be aware of students' achievements and weaknesses to decide how to time feedback. We present MTFeedback, a system that harnesses the new…

Monroy, Carlos; Rangel, Virginia Snodgrass; Whitaker, Reid – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2014
In this paper, we discuss a scalable approach for integrating learning analytics into an online K-12 science curriculum. A description of the curriculum and the underlying pedagogical framework is followed by a discussion of the challenges to be tackled as part of this integration. We include examples of data visualization based on teacher usage…

Wolff, Annika; Mulholland, Paul; Zdrahal, Zdenek – Interactive Learning Environments, 2014
This paper describes an approach for supporting inquiry learning from source materials, realised and tested through a tool-kit. The approach is optimised for tasks that require a student to make interpretations across sets of resources, where opinions and justifications may be hard to articulate. We adopt a dialogue-based approach to learning…

Balestrini, Mara; Hernandez-Leo, Davinia; Nieves, Raul; Blat, Josep – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2014
Under the umbrella of ubiquitous technologies, many computational artifacts have been designed to enhance the learning experience in physical settings such as classrooms or playgrounds, but few of them focus on aiding orchestration. This paper presents a systematic evaluation of the signal orchestration system (SOS) used by students for a jigsaw…

Carter, Deb; Crichton, Susan – Educational Media International, 2014
The overarching questions guiding this interprofessional design-based research study are: (1) How might a suite of assessment tools help K-7 educators visualize learning in their classrooms and (2) How might these visualization approaches inform K-7 educators' changes in classroom assessment? Recognized by their administrators as having…
