In this study, we propose a MOOC Analytic Statistical Visual model (MOOC-ASV) to explore students' engagement in MOOC courses and predict their performance on the basis of their behaviors logged as big data in MOOC platforms. The model has multifunctions, which performs on visually analyzing learners' data by state-of-the-art techniques. The model…

Generalizability theory is a modern, powerful, and broad framework used to assess the reliability, or dependability, of measurements. While there exist classic works that explain the basic concepts and mathematical foundations of the method, there is currently a lack of resources addressing computational resources for those researchers wishing to…

This is the fifth in a series of statistical articles for mathematics teachers. In this article the authors discuss graphs for exploring relationships between one categorical variable and one numerical variable using stemplots and boxplots and between two numerical variables, using scatterplots and time series plots. [For "The Data Files 4:…

This article describes a collaborative project across three institutions to develop, implement, and evaluate a series of tutorials and case studies that highlight fundamental tools of data science--such as visualization, data manipulation, and database usage--that instructors at a wide-range of institutions can incorporate into existing statistics…

Missing data patterns are the combinations in which the variables with missing values occur. Exploring these patterns in multivariate data can be very useful but there are few specialized tools. The current paper presents a plot that includes relevant information for visualizing these patterns. The plot is also dynamic-interactive; so, selecting…

The first two decades of the 21st century has heralded an unprecedented data revolution increasingly impacting our daily lives. Statistics education must continually update itself to prepare students for this new data-driven world. In this reflection on our research during this time, we discuss how fostering learning from data brought many…

As the field of chemistry education moves toward greater inclusion and increased participation by underrepresented minorities, standards for investigating the differential impacts and outcomes of learning environments have to be considered. While quantitative methods may not be capable of generating the in-depth nuances of qualitative methods,…

Graphics are often mistaken for a mere frill in the methodological arsenal of data analysis when in fact they can be one of the simplest and at the same time most powerful methods of communicating statistical information (Tufte, 2001). The first section of the article argues for the statistical necessity of graphs, echoing and amplifying similar…

Forced-choice ipsative data are common in personality, philosophy and other preference-based studies. However, this type of data inherently contains dependencies that are challenging for usual statistical analysis. In order to utilize the structure of the data as a guide for analysis rather than as a challenge to manage, a visualisation tool was…

Classroom Action Research (PTK) was made after researchers observed the implementation of learning conducted mostly school teachers Extraordinary show symptoms not as expected, because the teacher still dominates teaching and learning activities centered on teachers, by looking at the lecture method is a method that The main. This raises a very…

In the 21st century, the age of information and technology, there is an increasing importance to statistical literacy for everyday life. In addition, education innovation and globalisation in the past decade in Europe has resulted in a new perceived complexity of reality that affected the curriculum and statistics education, with a shift from…

Refutation-style texts have been considered a viable strategy for changing psychological misconceptions. The current study aims to integrate refutation-style texts into a classroom-based method of learning. Psychology students were administered a true/false misconception survey and then viewed several refutation-style poster presentations…

In this commentary, we offer a set of visual tools that can assist education researchers, especially those in the field of mathematics, in developing cohesiveness from a mixed methods perspective, commencing at a study's research questions and literature review, through its data collection and analysis, and finally to its results. This expounds…

The purpose of this study is to describe upper elementary students' understandings of four graphical devices that frequently occur in social studies texts: captioned images, maps, tables, and timelines. Using verbal protocol data collection procedures, we collected information on students' metacognitive processes when they were explicitly asked to…

Online collaborative writing tools provide an efficient way to complete a writing task. However, existing tools only focus on technological affordances and ignore the importance of social affordances in a collaborative learning environment. This article describes a learning analytic system that analyzes writing behaviors, and creates…
