This quasi-experimental study examines the effect of short instruction videos on students' business statistics learning. Two hundred and thirty-one Dutch students attended 6-week online seminars on Business Statistics. One hundred and nineteen students were in an experimental group, and 112 in a control group. Students in the experimental group…

The Math Immersion intervention was designed to aid the transition-to-proof phase of the undergraduate mathematics major. The Immersion was co-taught by two instructors, one for Intro to Proofs and Abstract Algebra and another for Probability and Statistics and Linear Algebra. This case study documented that efficiency gains directly attributable…

The purpose of this research is to determine whether the achievement gap between Black and White students differs significantly between Minnesota public charter schools and traditional Minnesota public schools. The reading and math proficiency gaps between Black and White students in Minnesota are among the largest in the nation. Despite the fact…

Understanding whether or not different types of students master various attributes can aid future learning remediation. In this study, two-level diagnostic classification models (DCMs) were developed to represent the probabilistic relationship between external latent classes and attribute mastery patterns. Furthermore, variational Bayesian (VB)…

Using data from the National Center of Educational Statistics' (NCES) 2009 High School Longitudinal Study, this article studies the relationship between mathematics identity and mathematics success for LatinX students by relying on critical race theory and intersectionality as theoretical frameworks. The quantitative analysis relies on…

The problem explored in this study addresses the disparity in math achievement outcomes for African American and Latinx students at Oak Hills Elementary School (pseudonym). Leading educational scholars have charged educational researchers to rethink how they discuss and examine achievement and invited them to frame achievement discourse through…

Large numbers of students entering community colleges are deemed not academically prepared for college-level math. These students have historically been assigned to one or more non-credit-bearing courses for remedial, often called developmental, math instruction before they can take college-level courses. Research has found that most students…

In this supplement, the cost to implement and operate the Dana Center Mathematics Pathways (DCMP) program across the participating colleges is presented separated into primary cost categories based on program components describing what portion of spending went to training, teacher time in class, teacher time outside of class, advisement,…

School boards remain one of the most powerful forces in American education, helping to set curricula, evaluate teachers, and direct hundreds of billions of dollars in education funding. Yet teachers' unions play an outsized role in determining who serves on these boards. If the interests of teachers are perfectly aligned with those of students,…

More than two-thirds of first-year community college students require remediation in reading and/or mathematics before they can take college-level courses. Among these underprepared students who take the recommended developmental mathematics courses to become college-ready, less than one-third successfully complete these courses, posing a barrier…

A solid foundation in mathematics is beneficial not only for individuals' concurrent and later academic achievement, but also for future career success and financial stability. Rational number knowledge plays a pivotal role in mathematical success, yet it is often regarded as a challenging area to grasp comprehensively. The dissertation aims to…

This study illustrates the consequences of accounting for or ignoring teacher variability in student ratings in conjunction with combination rules when identifying students for gifted services in one rural primary school. Teachers (n = 16) rated 282 first- and second grade students on creativity, motivation, mathematics, and science. Results…

Middle school transitions are increasingly required, despite documented negative effects on general education students (GENs). We explore if and how the move to middle school differentially affects students with disabilities (SWDs), a large and low-performing group of students. Using an instrumental variables strategy and NYC data on nine cohorts…

The "Revista del Centro de Estudios Educativos," numero 3, 1971 included an early Carnoy article on the economics of education: "Un enfoque de sistemas para evaluar la educación, ilustrado con datos de Puerto Rico." The article used a unique data set that had student test scores, students' family background characteristics, and…

In Australia, a substantial proportion of students start secondary school with literacy and numeracy skills that are 3 or more years below those of their peers. Evidence suggests that low literacy and numeracy skills hinder students' access to the curriculum and can result in poor progress or educational failure. These students are also more…
