Tugay Kaçak; Abdullah Faruk Kiliç – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2025
Researchers continue to choose PCA in scale development and adaptation studies because it is the default setting and overestimates measurement quality. When PCA is utilized in investigations, the explained variance and factor loadings can be exaggerated. PCA, in contrast to the models given in the literature, should be investigated in…

Jascha Quarder; Gilbert Greefrath; Sebastian Gerber; Hans-Stefan Siller – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2025
This study investigates the promotion of pedagogical content knowledge for simulations and mathematical modelling with digital tools among pre-service teachers. This knowledge can be described as modelling-specific TPaCK in the context of digital tools. In a quasi-experimental design, three groups of pre-service teachers (N = 230) were analysed…

Hyunyi Jung; Corey Brady – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2025
In this article, we investigated how a class engaged in whole-class discussions of modeling solutions, across two different types of modeling tasks: a Model Eliciting Activity (MEA) and a Three-Act Task. We analyzed whole-class discourse as small groups presented and responded to each other's solutions to a MEA and a Three-Act Task. We have also…
