Matthew Finster; Lauren Decker-Woodrow; Barbara Booker; Craig A. Mason; Shihfen Tu; Ji-Eun Lee – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
COVID-19 contributed to the largest student performance decline in mathematics since 1990. The nation needs cost-effective mathematic interventions to address this drop and improve students' mathematics performance. This study presents a cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) of three algebraic technological applications, across four conditions: From…

Cotic, Mara; Doz, Daniel; Valencic Zuljan, Milena; Žakelj, Amalija; Felda, Darjo – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2023
In the present study, we were interested in the appraisal by teachers who have had experience with an individual form of differentiation of the efficiency of grouping learners into homogenous or heterogeneous groups. In the study, seven aspects were thus considered: (1) the learning performance and motivation of learners, (2) the learners'…

Phan, Huy P.; Ngu, Bing H.; Yeung, Alexander S. – Educational Psychology Review, 2017
We recently developed the "Framework of Achievement Bests" to explain the importance of effective functioning, personal growth, and enrichment of well-being experiences. This framework postulates a concept known as "optimal achievement best," which stipulates the idea that individuals may, in general, strive to achieve personal…

Lucangeli, Daniela; Fastame, Maria Chiara; Pedron, Martina; Porru, Annamaria; Duca, Valeria; Hitchcott, Paul Kenneth; Penna, Maria Pietronilla – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2019
Even in primary school, mathematics achievement depends upon the efficiency of cognitive, metacognitive and self-regulatory processes. Thus, for pupils to carry out a computation, such as a written calculation, metacognitive mechanisms play a crucial role, since children must employ self-regulation to assess the precision of their own thinking and…

Gal-Ezer, Judith; Vilner, Tamar; Zur, Ela – Computer Science Education, 2004
Realizing the importance of teaching efficiency at early stages of the program of study in computer science (CS) on one hand, and the difficulties encountered when introducing this concept on the other, we advocate a different didactic approach in the introductory CS course (CS1). This paper describes the approach as it is used at the Open…
