Carolien A. N. Knoop-van Campen; Joep van der Graaf; Anne Horvers; Rianne Kooi; Rick Dijkstra; Inge Molenaar – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Even though monitoring and control enactment are key aspects of self-regulated learning (SRL), Adaptive learning technologies (ALTs) may reduce the need for learners to monitor and control their learning. Personalized dashboards are effective in supporting learners' monitoring and can potentially support control behaviour. Allowing…

Lauren Shapiro – ProQuest LLC, 2024
In 2 experiments, I studied the effects of an Equivalence Based Instruction (EBI) math intervention on the emergence of untaught selection responses and abstraction to production responses. In Experiment I, using a multiple baseline design, I implemented the EBI intervention among a group of 17 first grade participants with varying levels of math…

Lei Xie; Suwisa Charatkamolpong; Supawadee Kanjanakate – Asian Journal of Contemporary Education, 2025
In the 21st - century skills - oriented education, this study aims to bridge the gap in traditional mathematics teaching, which often addresses teamwork and problem - solving skills independently. It focuses on designing and assessing an integrated instructional model using Problem - Based Learning (PBL) via Collaborative Learning (CL) to equip…

Xin Lin; Sarah R. Powell – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2025
This study examined how word-problem characteristics influenced students' learning and retention of word-problem knowledge during and after an intervention. The participants were 221 fourth-grade students (average age at pretest = 8.8 years) who experienced word-problem difficulties (WPD) and had received a word-problem intervention in third…

Hourigan, Mairéad; Leavy, Aisling – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2022
This paper explores Year 3 Irish students' problem-solving strategies when responding to a skyscraper growing pattern problem. Students' strategies reveal their understandings of multiplicative thinking, pattern, and algebraic reasoning. The version of the growing pattern lesson was that a 'teaching through problem solving' approach was taken,…

Myers, Jonté A.; Witzel, Bradley S.; Powell, Sarah R.; Li, Hongli; Pigott, Terri D.; Xin, Yan Ping; Hughes, Elizabeth M. – Review of Educational Research, 2022
Since 1975, researchers have conducted interventions to improve the word-problem performance of elementary school students facing mathematics difficulties. The current study reports a meta-analysis of 52 studies that examined the effect of these interventions. We estimated multivariate, random-effects models (REM) with robust variance estimation…
