Riana Wadtan; Thanongsak Sovajassatakul; Kanyarat Sriwisathiyakun – Cogent Education, 2024
Previously, we described a Team-Based Ubiquitous Learning Model on Cloud Platform Model (PITTA Model). In this paper, we aimed to demonstrate the value of this model by compare learning achievement and creative problem-solving ability using the PITTA model of learning, compare between experimental group and control group by The Randomized…

Sofia Bertolaja; Said Ettejjari; Natalie Foster – OECD Publishing, 2025
Recognising the importance of developing creativity in education, the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) included an assessment of creative thinking for the first time in its 2022 cycle -- with the results summarised in the PISA 2022 Results (Volume III) report. While that report focused on comparing countries' performance on…

Increased use of computer-based assessments has facilitated data collection processes that capture both response product data (i.e., correct and incorrect) and response process data (e.g., time-stamped action sequences). Evidence suggests a strong relationship between respondents' correct/incorrect responses and their problem-solving proficiency…

Lin, Xin; Peng, Peng; Luo, Hongjing – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2021
The purpose of the study was to compare the deficit profiles of two important types of mathematics difficulties. Three cognitive measures (working memory, processing speed, and reasoning), two mathematics measures (numerical facts retrieval and mathematics vocabulary), and reading comprehension were assessed among 237 Chinese fourth-grade…

Strohmaier, Anselm R.; Reinhold, Frank; Hofer, Sarah; Berkowitz, Michal; Vogel-Heuser, Birgit; Reiss, Kristina – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2022
Mathematical word problem solving is influenced by various characteristics of the task and the person solving it. Yet, previous research has rarely related these characteristics to holistically answer which word problem requires which set of individual cognitive skills. In the present study, we conducted a secondary data analysis on a dataset of N…

Lynn S. Fuchs; Douglas Fuchs; Sonya K. Sterba; Marcia A. Barnes; Pamela M. Seethaler; Paul Changas – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
This study's purpose was to investigate effects of 3 intervention approaches for building working memory (WM) and improving word-problem solving (WPS). Children with mathematics difficulties (n = 240; 7.51 years [SD = 0.33]) were randomized to 4 conditions: a control group, general WM training with contiguous math practice, WPS intervention…

Jia-qi Zheng; Kwok-cheung Cheung; Pou-seong Sit – Asia-Pacific Education Researcher, 2024
Collaborative problem-solving competence (CPSC) is a core skill in the twenty-first century. As an innovative literacy, CPSC was assessed for the first time in the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2015. Our study aims to identify the effects of student's perceptions toward interpersonal relationships on CPSC in PISA 2015.…

Tárraga-Mínguez, Raúl; Tarín-Ibáñez, Julio; Lacruz-Pérez, Irene – Education Sciences, 2021
The teaching guides that complement textbooks have key importance in the assessment of competence in problem solving, because these materials contain the assessment tools that teachers frequently use to quantify the achievements of their students. In this paper, we set two aims: to analyze which curriculum contents are given priority in the…

Nani Teig – Research in Science Education, 2024
The advancement of technology has led to a growing interest in assessing scientific inquiry within digital platforms. This shift towards dynamic and interactive inquiry assessments enables researchers to investigate not only the accuracy of student responses ("product data") but also their steps and actions leading to those responses…

Mine Bayar; Nese Isik Tertemiz – Educational Policy Analysis and Strategic Research, 2024
Problem solving skill is a basic skill that students should acquire both in mathematics education and their daily lives. This research aims to examine fourth-grade elementary school student skills in solving four-operation problems prepared in different structures according to the situation of the unknown. In this research, on the one hand,…

Cartwright, Kelly B.; Taboada Barber, Ana; Archer, Casey J. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2022
Purpose: Math word problem solving, a form of reading comprehension, is complicated by mathematical lexical ambiguity (e.g., the word "difference" can mean "dissimilarity" in everyday discourse but "the answer in a subtraction problem" in math). This study examined the role of mathematical lexical ambiguity in math…

The present study was conducted to determine how implementing computational thinking (via a proxy in AP Computer Science Principles) into a school's curriculum impacted student proficiency rates on the New York State Geometry Regents. Recent research has suggested that computational thinking is a skill that transcends specific content areas and…
