This paper focuses on problem solving and problem posing in mathematics education with 6-year-olds. After working on a problem-solving activity, the young students were asked to pose a "similar" task to a friend. This article explores how the students interpret the notion of "similar." To be able to pose a problem-solving task…

In contrast to the determinist and non-discrete structure of classical physical concepts, the probabilistic and discrete/quantised structure of quantum physics embeds certain difficulties in deeper understanding and teaching activities. In this study, in order to understand and to teach the concept of quantization more effectively, a clear analogy…

Any effort to integrate problem-posing instruction in school mathematics must attend to teachers' beliefs about the advantages of teaching through problem posing and especially their beliefs about the challenges of teaching in this way. This study investigated teachers who were learning how to teach mathematics through problem posing. The primary…

Scientific statistical working in a team is a special challenge for students in high schools, especially with a civic statistical problem. Ideally, they are following the PPDAC cycle: they formulate a problem together, plan an investigation, collect the data, use software to analyze the data, and formulate results in a seminar paper. This article…

Problem solving abilities are critical components of contemporary Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education. Research in the area of problem solving has uncovered much about the representation, processes and heuristic approaches to problem solving. However, critics claim this overemphasis on the process of solving problems…

In this study, it was aimed to compare the problem solving and perfectionism levels of the students who do sports and do not sports in terms of various variables, and to determine the correlation between problem solving and their perfectionism. In the province of Among the competitions between secondary schools in the 2018-2019 academic year,…

An increasing number of researchers are examining the benefits and outcomes of caregiver-implemented interventions for young children with delays or disabilities. Most report the incorporation of multiple coaching strategies within their approach; however, definitions and descriptions of coaching strategies and processes continue to be limited.…

Young children love opportunities to build, discover, and solve problems. Teachers can take advantage of these natural tendencies by introducing students to aspects of engineering design while they engage in classroom activities. Engineering also lends itself to supporting students in developing disciplinary literacy practices such as learning…

The purpose of the present study is to investigate if early childhood educators' behavioral supports for young children are associated with their metacognitive knowledge of general problem-solving strategies. A sample of 175 Korean early childhood educators were surveyed regarding their implementation of behavioral support and meta-cognitive…

Homework gives students the opportunity to practice new skills in both familiar and unfamiliar situations, and to develop an understanding of related concepts. Although some of these goals can be easily accomplished in online homework, many systems are less useful for handling open-ended questions. Written homework, on the other hand, takes time…

Interior design students should be able to use research and evidence-based design outcomes to make decisions that promote health, safety and wellbeing. This approach will contribute to resolving social, environmental and community issues through design-oriented thinking Accordingly, the aim of this research in a senior design studio course is to…

This research aimed to describe the levels of feeling of rightness (FOR) of students. This research used a qualitative method with an explorative type. The subjects of this research were 3 students of 5th grade selected from 77 other students in Indonesia. In uncovering FOR subject of this research, instruments were used in the form of problems…

Integrating computational thinking (CT) and science education is complex, and assessing the resulting learning gains even more so. Arguments that assessment should match the learning (Biggs, "Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education," 21(1), 5-16. 1996; Airasian and Miranda, "Theory into Practice," 41(4), 249-254. 2002;…

Extension professionals help important agricultural sectors across the country resolve challenges using science-based practices that enhance environmental and social wellbeing while supporting businesses. Nursery and greenhouse growers comprise one of the largest sectors of U.S. agriculture, and this group is challenged to conserve water without…

The study was performed to examine university students' digital game playing motivation and problem solving skill levels. The research group consists of totally 586 students, 326 male and 260 female study at Bingöl University Physical Education and Sports Academy (PESA), Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and Faculty of Engineering and Architecture…
