Cheeseman, Jill; Downton, Ann; Roche, Anne; Ferguson, Sarah – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2021
In the context of a multiplicative problem, our study investigated young children's ability to visualise and draw equal groups. This paper reports the results obtained from 18 Australian children in their first year of school (age 5-6 years). The task "12 Little Ducks," taught by their classroom teacher, provoked children to visualise…

Karika, Tímea; Csíkos, Csaba – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2022
In this research, a new test for understanding simple fractions has been developed for students at the beginning of lower secondary education. In many countries, mathematics education in Grade 5 builds on elementary students' developing concepts of fractions. Understanding fractions causes many difficulties for students, and research on mental…

Kim, Mijung; Jin, Qingna – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
Visualisation has been a critical means of scientific reasoning, knowledge development, and communication. In science classrooms, visualisation plays significant roles for teaching and learning. To better understand the landscape of the existing research on visualisation for supporting student science learning in K to 12 classroom contexts, we…

Floris, Francesco; Marchisio, Marina; Roman, Fabio; Sacchet, Matteo; Rabellino, Sergio – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2022
Among the various kinds of learning analytics emerging especially in the latest decade, clicking patterns cover a prominent role, fostered by their success in analyzing several types of data concerning activity on the web. They can be defined as sets of clicks performed by users, in which every set is treated as the basic unit. Few research has…

Hannes Rall; Emma Harper – Pedagogies: An International Journal, 2024
Our paper seeks to investigate how mediation using emerging technologies can increase student engagement within the context of teaching English Literature in Singapore. Through a discussion of our ongoing project to create an adaptation of Shakespeare's "Pericles, Prince of Tyre" as an animated game in virtual reality, we focus upon the…

Vágová, Renáta; Kmetová, Mária – Acta Didactica Napocensia, 2019
Visualisation is a necessary ability for students' mathematical education. The appearance of multiple Dynamic Geometry Software (DGS) has a stronger impact each day, and it raises many questions in the minds of researchers. In this paper, we present the findings of our exploratory case study in which a student preferring visual problem solving…

Nogueira, J. Robert; Alves, Ricardo; Marques, P. Carmona – Education Sciences, 2019
In this study we have attempted, firstly, to describe programming protocols developed for the teaching of an Electromagnetism course in the university degrees of Electrical Engineering and Energy Engineering, and secondly, to evaluate students' satisfaction with the simulation practices through MATLAB® programming. The main objective of the…

Hipkiss, Anna Maria; Windsor, Sally – Action in Teacher Education, 2023
In Sweden, although all teacher education programs require the completion of the practicum, little focus has been placed on consistent evaluation of how content knowledge is included and built during practicum lessons, or how lesson planning and teaching are aligned. This article presents a novel method for teacher educators, mentors, and student…

Pei, Bo; Xing, Wanli; Zhu, Gaoxia; Antonyan, Kristine; Xie, Charles – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Infrared (IR) technologies have been universally acknowledged as a valuable pedagogical tool for exploring novel and abstract scientific subjects in science education. This study explores the roles of IR images played in middle school students' Evidence-based Reasoning (EBR) process in support of the understanding of the heat radiation process.…

Alexandria A. Viegut; Percival G. Matthews – Grantee Submission, 2023
Understanding fraction magnitudes is foundational for later math achievement. To represent a fraction "x/y," children are often taught to use "partitioning": break the whole into "y" parts, and shade in "x" parts. Past research has shown that partitioning on number lines supports children's fraction…

Alexandria A. Viegut; Percival G. Matthews – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Understanding fraction magnitudes is foundational for later math achievement. To represent a fraction x/y, children are often taught to use "partitioning": Break the whole into y parts and shade in x parts. Past research has shown that partitioning on number lines supports children's fraction magnitude knowledge more than partitioning on…

Mahmood, Munir; Vale, Colleen – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2020
The visual method in this paper solves linear inequalities in one variable by considering them initially as two competing linear expressions, each of which is then expressed as a linear equation. When the solution of these two linear equations exist, it is viewed as a highlighted area or a line. These linear equations convey the intended visual…

Stephens, Paul; Young, Jacob – Information Systems Education Journal, 2020
We describe a "Day of Giving" university fundraising event that can be used to introduce data visualization to undergraduate students. The project involves integrating data sources, creating a Tableau data model, and designing a heat map that can be embedded into a front-end website. Our activity provides opportunities to discuss various…

Abdinejad, Maryam; Talaie, Borzu; Qorbani, Hossain S.; Dalili, Shadi – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2021
Visualizing molecular conformations and complex compound structures and chemical transformations in 3D is one of the most difficult tasks for undergraduate chemistry students. Modern computational technologies have revolutionized every aspect of our lives, including education. As a result, many researchers and educators are working on enhancing…
