Rickel, Jessica; Szatrowski, Alisa; Rosemond, Charlie – Online Submission, 2023
Using Coarsened Exact Matching (CEM), this analysis examined the impact of Zearn Math across 7,116 matched pairs of students in 31 Louisiana parishes. Students who completed an average of 3+ Zearn Math lessons per week during the 2021-2022 school year were compared to similarly matched peers who completed less than 1 lesson per week. Findings…

Lewin, Daniel R. – International Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2021
A course with good learning outcomes is one in which most of the enrolled students achieve the mastery specified in the predefined learning objectives. Since the enrolment is invariably a mix of students with heterogeneous capabilities, the class average grade is a poor indicator of how the class is divided into at least two groups, of high- and…

Chalikias, Miltiadis; Kossieri, Evangelia; Lalou, Panagiota – Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, 2020
The aim of this paper is to approach the teaching of the Poisson distribution in a friendly and amusing way. It constitutes a common practice to adopt the main probability distributions in order to predict results of sport events and to estimate the win return of betting activities (Chalikias 2009). In particular, by using the Poisson…

Mao, Ye; Lin, Chen; Chi, Min – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2018
Bayesian Knowledge Tracing (BKT) is a commonly used approach for student modeling, and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) is a versatile model that can be applied to a wide range of tasks, such as language translation. In this work, we directly compared three models: BKT, its variant Intervention-BKT (IBKT), and LSTM, on two types of student modeling…

School Gardening with a Twist Using Fish: Encouraging Educators to Adopt Aquaponics in the Classroom
Clayborn, Jaeson; Medina, Miles; O'Brien, George – Applied Environmental Education and Communication, 2017
To evaluate the willingness of teachers to incorporate aquaponics in the classroom, we engaged teachers in a 6-week project. Participants in the experimental group maintained small-scale aquaponic systems. All teachers completed pretests and posttests, and exit surveys. Both groups (experimental and control) scored significantly higher on the…

Poondej, Chanut; Lerdpornkulrat, Thanita – Australian Educational Computing, 2016
In the literature, the potential efficacy of the gamification of education has been demonstrated. The aim of this study was to explore the influence of applying gamification techniques to increase student engagement in learning. The quasi-experimental nonequivalent-control group design was used with 577 undergraduate students from six classes. The…

Gandhi, Ankit; Biswas, Arijit; Deshmukh, Om – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
In this paper, we propose a visual saliency algorithm for automatically finding the topic transition points in an educational video. First, we propose a method for assigning a saliency score to each word extracted from an educational video. We design several mid-level features that are indicative of visual saliency. The optimal feature combination…

Laine, Erkka; Veermans, Marjaana; Lahti, Aleksi; Veermans, Koen – Frontline Learning Research, 2017
A declining trend in adolescents' interest in science learning and attitudes towards science-related careers has been reported during recent years. There has been a call for more motivating learning environments that inspire students to develop interest towards science. This study examines students' interest development in STEM subjects in an…

Papaieronymou, Irini – Athens Journal of Education, 2017
This paper presents the results of a study which examined the role of particular tasks implemented through two instructional methods on college students' achievement in probability. A mixed methods design that utilized a pre-test (with multiple-choice items) and post-test (with multiple-choice and open-ended items) in treatment and control groups…

Pale, Joseph W. – Journal of Education and Practice, 2016
Teacher based is the usual instructional method used by most teachers in high school. Traditionally, teachers direct the learning and students work individually and assume a receptive role in their education. Student based learning approach is an instructional use of small groups of students working together to accomplish shared goals to increase…

Can, Ömer Sinan; Isleyen, Tevfik – Journal of Education and Practice, 2016
The aim of this study is to explore the effects of the argumentation based science learning (ABSL) approach on the teaching probability to pre-service teachers. The sample of the study included 41 students studying at the Department of Elementary School Mathematics Education in a public university during the 2014-2015 academic years. The study is…

Cooper, Darren; Higgins, Steve; Beckmann, Nadin – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 2017
Online instructional videos are becoming increasingly common within education. This study adopts a quasi-experimental 2 × 2 crossover design (control and experimental groups) to evaluate the efficacy of instructional videos to teach practical rehabilitation skills. The students performed practical sessions in class and were formatively assessed by…

Thomas, Ally S.; Bonner, Sarah M.; Everson, Howard T.; Somers, Jennifer A. – Educational Research and Evaluation, 2015
The Peer Enabled Restructured Classroom (PERC) is an instructional innovation developed to address gaps in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) in urban high schools. The PERC model changes instruction from teacher led to peer led by bringing peer students into the classroom to lead small-group work. Our study sought to provide…

Remigio, Krisette B.; Yangco, Rosanelia T.; Espinosa, Allen A. – Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Sciences, 2014
The study examined the reasoning skills of first year high school students after learning general science concepts through analogies. Two intact heterogeneous sections were randomly assigned to Analogy-Enhanced Instruction (AEI) group and Non Analogy-Enhanced (NAEI) group. Various analogies were incorporated in the lessons of the AEI group for…

Clinton, Virginia; Alibali, Martha W.; Nathan, Mitchell J. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2013
This study examined the effectiveness of two methods of increasing student learning from posterior probability lessons: diagrams and questioning while reading. Undergraduate students (N = 245) read a lesson in one of three diagram conditions and one of three questioning-while-reading conditions (embedded questions, elaboration interrogations, and…
