There is a need to provide evidence-based social, emotional, and behavioral interventions for learners at risk for emotional and behavioral problems. Evidence-based interventions for social and emotional success are especially necessary for Black learners with emotional or behavioral problems. In the current study, we used a multiple-baseline…

This study examined "backward transfer," which we define as how students' ways of reasoning about previously encountered concepts are modified when learning about new concepts. We examined the backward transfer produced when students learned about quadratic functions. We were specifically interested in how backward transfer may vary for…

Purpose: The purpose of this action research was to identify students' errors in solving fraction number line and word problems. It also explored the effectiveness of Tik-Tok short videos in improving students' fraction understanding. Methods: The sample for this research consisted of 48 students from Form 1 at SMK SANZAC. In this study, a Check…

Anger and aggressive behaviour are part of everyday school-life and have been reported to be negatively associated with student well-being and academic performance. School-based interventions, developed to target anger and aggressive behaviour, are scarce. One such Danish intervention, the so-called Mini-Diamond, has been developed and implemented…

Various investigations have applied meditation protocols in the school context, with beneficial effects. Transcendental meditation, however, received little attention in primary school settings and few controlled studies are available. The present study is aimed: 1) to investigate the implementation of a school protocol (Quiet Time-QT) based on…

For this study, an alternating treatment single-case research design was used to evaluate and compare the impacts of student-led and teacher-led Tootling on individual student's disruptive behaviors and academic engagement. Student-led Tootling, teacher-led Tootling, and baseline conditions were alternated daily following a systematically blocked,…

Students and educators often face time constraints, making it essential to develop interventions that are both easy to implement and have a substantial impact on learning and performance. One promising strategy is retrieval practice, particularly in the context of physics education, where many students struggle with basic knowledge. Prior research…

The purpose of this study was to conduct a small-scale pilot study of Conjoint Behavioral Consultation (CBC), modified for middle school students with social, emotional, and behavior concerns. Participants were 30 middle school students with social, emotional, and behavior concerns, along with their parents and teachers. Participants were…

Objective: To investigate what factors are associated with food insecurity (FI) among freshman students and identify potential solutions. Participants: 73 freshman students. Methods: Cross-sectional, Internet survey-based study. Fisher's Exact tests examined factors associated with food security (FS); Cohen's Kappa assessed the agreement between…

The current study investigated the effectiveness of an intensive writing intervention focusing on mathematical reasoning through written expression. A group pretest--intervention--posttest comparison experimental design was used to implement a 12-lesson intervention, delivered through a combination of Google Classroom and in-person classroom…

The purpose of this mixed methods study was to investigate the effect of a graphing calculator (GC) intervention on Grade 11 learners' achievement in quadratic inequality problem solving. The quantitative aspects of the study involved an experimental and control group design in which the experimental group received instruction using the GC…

Educational institutions are constantly aiming to better meet the academic needs of individuals with disabilities. As more students with disabilities attend postsecondary education settings researchers need to better understand how to apply both academic and behavioral interventions to better serve this population. Group contingencies are widely…

There is a strong need for fifth-grade students to become proficient in mathematical problem-solving using fractional computations because it will have a lasting impact on student achievement. Traditionally, mathematics is taught inside a brick-and-mortar classroom, grounded in rote memorization of facts, rules, and formulas. In recent years, more…

The PAX Good Behavior Game (PAX-GBG) is a school-based intervention shown to enhance student self-regulation, encourage prosocial behavior, and curb challenging behaviors. However, little is understood about students' perspectives on the intervention. In this study, we conducted a survey and semi-structured interviews with 3rd-grade students in…
