William G. Travers – ProQuest LLC, 2024
To date, most classroom-based research into the learning of a third language (L3) in the US has examined patterns of acquisition among various groups of bilinguals. Situated mainly within the context of "Portuguese for Spanish Speakers" (PSS), studies typically group learners based on the sequence / age of onset of their main background…

Morphological awareness is the metalinguistic realization that words consist of meaningful roots and affixes that can be isolated and manipulated. Learners at different proficiency levels use various forms of background knowledge such as cultural knowledge, technical knowledge, religious knowledge, vocabulary knowledge, and contextual visuals. The…

Lee, Soon Chun; Alagic, Mara; Byun, Jaehwan; Liu, Fuchang – Mathematics Teacher Education and Development, 2021
This study examined preservice elementary teachers' (PETs') epistemological beliefs (EB) and their views about mathematics (VM) and the impact on these parameters by their prior experience in learning mathematics. A total of 541 PETs from an American university completed EB and VM questionnaires. It was found that participants' EB and the…

Costu, Fatma; Bektas, Rukiye; Costu, Bayram – Asia-Pacific Forum on Science Learning and Teaching, 2021
The aim of this study was to reveal science teachers' attitudes, readiness and views for STEM education. Parallel to this aim, the study was conducted in two parts. In the first part, to examine attitudes and readiness of the science teachers, T-STEM survey which consists of nine sub-parts, was implemented on the participants. In the second part,…

Ruegg, Rachael; Petersen, Natalia; Hoang, Ha; Marianne – Higher Education Research and Development, 2021
There has been a lack of research systematically identifying the kinds of international students who struggle to succeed academically in the New Zealand tertiary context. This research was conducted to determine whether students who enter through different pathways have equal likelihood of academic success after admission. Statistical information…

Bajada, Christopher; Singh, Sonika; Jarvis, Walter; Trayler, Rowan – Higher Education Research and Development, 2021
We focus on the pedagogical merit of introducing and assessing Thresholds Concepts (TCs) in the curriculum with a view to (inter alia) regain public confidence and trust in the legitimacy of business education and qualifications -- especially since the 2007-2010 global recession. While the education literature foregrounds the role of higher…

Pownall, Madeleine; Blundell-Birtill, Pam; Coats, Rachel O.; Harris, Richard – Psychology Teaching Review, 2021
In the UK, psychology degrees are designed to equip students with skills such as critical thinking, research methods, and analytical debate. Many of the key skills and subject-specific content that is taught in the first year of a psychology programme is also introduced in A-level and AS-level study of psychology. Therefore, one would expect…

Begolli, Kreshnik Nasi; Dai, Ting; McGinn, Kelly M.; Booth, Julie L. – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2021
Proportional reasoning failures seem to constitute most errors in probabilistic reasoning, yet there is little empirical evidence about its role for attaining probabilistic knowledge and how to effectively intervene with students who have less proportional reasoning skills. We examined the contributions of students' proportional reasoning skill…

Campbell, Brett – Utah System of Higher Education, 2021
Adult learners currently make up between 25% and 40% of all college-attending students, including military veterans, single mothers, and underemployed workers. Many of these students identify as African American or Latinx, and almost two-thirds (62.5%) attend college part-time. Historically, adult learners have been identified as any…

Corlatescu, Dragos-Georgian; Dascalu, Mihai; McNamara, Danielle S. – Grantee Submission, 2021
Reading comprehension is key to knowledge acquisition and to reinforcing memory for previous information. While reading, a mental representation is constructed in the reader's mind. The mental model comprises the words in the text, the relations between the words, and inferences linking to concepts in prior knowledge. The automated model of…

Amira Mattison Boylston – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Historically, teachers have been primarily focused on fostering the academic success and progress of their students. Over the years, the role of a teacher has evolved to also encompass meeting the behavioral and social-emotional needs of their students as well. Students with difficulties in these areas are often at-risk for struggling academically…

A large body of literature has established the benefits of undergraduate research experiences via the traditional apprenticeship model. More recently, several studies have shown that many of these benefits can be recapitulated in course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) that are more scalable and easier for students to participate…
