Research on number sense presents contradictory arguments and results regarding the effects of context-based tasks and activities on students' number sense. The aim of this study was to examine fourth-grade elementary school students' number sense as they solve context-based (CB) and non-context-based (NCB) items. A survey design was employed and…

Lissitsa, Sabina; Chachashvili-Bolotin, Svetlana – International Review of Education, 2020
Job autonomy -- employees' freedom to schedule and organise their work independently according to their own experience and preferences -- is a major factor in job satisfaction. However, it is not granted to many employees in Israel, and the authors of this article were interested in the reasons for this. Based on data from the Programme for the…

Magana, Alejandra J.; Vieira, Camilo; Fennell, Hayden W.; Roy, Anindya; Falk, Michael L. – Cognition and Instruction, 2020
Modeling is an important element of discovery and design processes because it can help individuals to comprehend and facilitate solutions to problems, mediate among mental and external representations, and off-load cognitive demands. However, engaging in model generation, comprehension, and transformation requires the orchestration of domain…

Halmo, Stephanie M.; Sensibaugh, Cheryl A.; Reinhart, Peter; Stogniy, Oleksandra; Fiorella, Logan; Lemons, Paula P. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2020
Research in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education supports a shift from traditional lecturing to evidence-based instruction in college courses, yet it is unknown whether particular evidence-based pedagogies are more effective than others for learning outcomes like problem solving. Research supports three distinct pedagogies:…

This paper presents an approach to implement learning objects for teaching and learning problem-solving techniques based on computer programming. The demonstrated approach exploits computer-based interactive animations and computer graphics. The main feature of this approach is its simplicity for exploring the concepts and structures of the…

Puente-Diaz, Rogelio; Cavazos-Arroyo, Judith – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2020
Creativity scholars try to untangle the commonalities and differences between creative self-beliefs: creative self-efficacy, creative self-concept, creative metacognition, and creative role identity. While these efforts are already contributing significantly, we would like to suggest that for creative metacognition, we need to go beyond the…

Hauser-Davis, Rachel A.; Comarú, Michele W.; Lopes, Renato M. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2020
A simple, repeatable and inexpensive laboratory practice applied to teach and discuss aquatic metal pollution and oxidative stress detoxification mechanisms through biomarker analyses, as well as important ecotoxicology concepts, is presented herein. It has been implemented in a university in Brazil to both undergraduate and Master's and PhD…

Li, Jiao; Gao, Furong; Jin, Caixia; Shi, Xiujuan; Zhang, Chen; Jia, Song; Xu, Jie; Lv, Lixia; Yang, Wenzhuo; Xu, Lei – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2020
In teaching of experiments for medical students, by using the isolation of mononuclear cells and identification of B lymphocytes, an experiment was developed that integrated biochemistry, cytology, and immunology techniques, from which the students performed a series of operations including spleen separation, isolating mononuclear cells, and…

Atypical sensory processing is common in autism spectrum disorders (ASD), but their role in adaptive difficulties and problem behaviors is poorly understood. Our aim was to determine the prevalence and type of atypical sensory processing in children with ASD and investigate its impact on their adaptive functioning and maladaptive behaviors. We…

Buda, András – Informatics in Education, 2020
Most countries attempt to catch up with technological progress and digitise their educational environment, but still there are few teachers that integrate ICT in education adequately. Several factors may hinder this process, whose exploration is important because only after learning about these barriers can efficient counteractions be taken. One…

Sokolowski, Andrzej – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2020
Like terms are usually defined for variables with numerical coefficients. While the definition is sufficient to combine polynomial terms, it does not help the students to combine radical, logarithmic, or trigonometric terms. The purpose of this paper is to propose a lesson that introduces a broader definition of like terms and trialed with a group…

Gormley, Kevin – Critical Studies in Education, 2020
This paper resists normative definitions of 'creativity' to argue that the concept is constructed by neoliberal discourses in education policy. The analysis is firstly centred on the Australian context, and this is further informed and complimented by a global perspective. Focusing on two pivotal policies, The Melbourne Declaration of Educational…

Ouariachi, Tania; Wim, Elving J. L. – Environmental Education Research, 2020
In the last years we have observed a growing interest in the use of gamification approaches for climate change education. While most practices are related to digital gaming, there is a new trend which is still academically unexplored: escape rooms. The main objective of this paper is to serve as an initial exploratory study in this field by…

Spybrook, Jessaca; Zhang, Qi; Kelcey, Ben; Dong, Nianbo – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 2020
Over the past 15 years, we have seen an increase in the use of cluster randomized trials (CRTs) to test the efficacy of educational interventions. These studies are often designed with the goal of determining whether a program works, or answering the what works question. Recently, the goals of these studies expanded to include for whom and under…
