Duffy, Gavin; Power, Jason; Sorby, Sheryl; Bowe, Brian – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 2018
Spearman concluded that performance on any test of mental ability could be explained by several cognitive factors organized hierarchically as one general factor and several subordinate specific factors (Spearman, 1904, 1927). The general factor accounted for the significant amount of inter-correlation between all ability tests for any one…

Barba, Kimberly – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2020
Mathematics problems are shared rapidly across all social media platforms, and the relative anonymity granted to users can lead to unfiltered discourse. This study examined 1,046 comments from a mathematics problem posted twice to YouTube in February 2016 to determine the underlying narratives that indicate the commenters' mathematical mindsets…

van der Stel, Manita; Veenman, Marcel V. J. – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2014
In the last decades, students increasingly have been placed in the role of active learners with responsibilities for their own learning. Students have to be able to plan their learning activities and execute them in a systematic and orderly way and to monitor and to evaluate their learning and to reflect on it. All aforementioned skills are…

Wickstrom, Megan H. – Equity & Excellence in Education, 2015
Creating equitable opportunities so all students can learn and succeed mathematically has been a key focus of mathematics education across several decades. Central to student achievement are students' mathematical identity and their feelings of success during instruction. Researchers (e.g., Boaler & Staples, 2008) have shown that teachers can…
