Gaming the system is a persistent problem in Computer-Based Learning Platforms. While substantial progress has been made in identifying and understanding such behaviors, effective interventions scarce. This study uses a method of causal moderation known as Fully Latent Principal Stratification to explore the impact of two types of interventions --…

Few studies have explored school-level effectiveness and teachers' mathematics instruction within classrooms simultaneously. This study used multiple data sources, including classroom observations and teacher interviews, to understand the mathematical classroom learning environments, and teachers' perceptions and expectations about their students…

This study explored the long-term academic impact of Two-Way Dual Language (TWDL) programs on both English-dominant and Spanish-dominant Hispanic students in a high-density Hispanic area. Specifically, it compared their academic performance in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math over a 3-year period to that of students enrolled in traditional…

Louisiana State University (LSU) received an Education Innovation and Research (EIR) grant to implement its Introduction to Computational Thinking (ICT) course from fall 2019 through spring 2023. ICT is a yearlong course that builds skills in problem solving, programming, and mathematics (algebra and geometry) and is intended to improve…

Gaming the system is a persistent problem in Computer-Based Learning Platforms. While substantial progress has been made in identifying and understanding such behaviors, effective interventions remain scarce. This study uses a method of causal moderation known as Fully Latent Principal Stratification to explore the impact of two types of…

Teacher leadership is essential for increasing teacher quality, addressing teacher turnover, and ultimately improving student learning. In this paper, we describe a teacher leadership program that developed 14 secondary mathematics teacher leaders. The quantitative data from the assessments and surveys indicate improvement of knowledge for…

The Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) is an international comparative study of student achievement directed by the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA). TIMSS was first conducted in 1995 and the 2023 assessment formed the eighth cycle, providing 28 years of trends in mathematics…

While research on the educational experiences of immigrant students typically focuses on their (responses to) educational challenges, there is a lack of research on understanding the academic risk-taking behaviors of immigrant students. This study addresses this gap by examining the mental risk-taking skills of Syrian immigrant students in Türkiye…

The random intercept cross-lagged panel model (RICLPM) decomposes longitudinal associations between two processes X and Y into stable between-person associations and temporal within-person changes. In a recent study, Bailey et al. demonstrated through a simulation study that the between-person variance components in the RICLPM can occur only due…

Multilevel factor mixture modeling (FMM) is a hybrid of multilevel confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and multilevel latent class analysis (LCA). It allows researchers to examine population heterogeneity at the within level, between level, or both levels. This tutorial focuses on explicating the model specification of multilevel FMM that considers…

Fuzzy regression-discontinuity evaluations of college remediation often find negative and null estimates of local average treatments effects (LATEs), but with substantial heterogeneity. We find that a remedial quantitative skills course at Wellesley College has a modestly positive LATE on participation in mathematically intensive fields of…

The research aims to develop a Mathematical Cognitive Test (MCT) within the context of the Jember agricultural environment to improve the Mathematical Connection Ability (MCA) of high school students. This MCT was developed using the Thiagarajan 4D model, which consists of the define, design, develop, and disseminate stages. The research subjects…

The purpose of the study was to determine ways to improve the organisation of independent work in mathematical disciplines at the university, its theoretical substantiation and the development of its methodological system. This study consisted of two parts: theoretical and practical. The theoretical part was based on the use of general theoretical…

Background: Educational technologies typically provide teachers with analytics regarding student proficiency, but few digital tools provide teachers with process-based information about students' variable problem-solving strategies as they solve problems. Utilising design thinking and co-designing with teachers can provide insight to researchers…

Several researchers have called for schools to interpret universal screening results using posterior probabilities. Following this recommendation could require schools to move away from direct-route, single-measure screening unless base rates of risk fall within a narrow range. In this descriptive study, we investigated two questions surrounding…
