Xu, Chang; Lafay, Anne; Douglas, Heather; Di Lonardo Burr, Sabrina; LeFevre, Jo-Anne; Osana, Helena P.; Skwarchuk, Sheri-Lynn; Wylie, Judith; Simms, Victoria; Maloney, Erin A. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Language skills play an important role in mathematics development. Students (7 to 10 years of age) learning school mathematics either in the same language used at home (first-language learners; n = 103) or in a different language (second-language learners; n = 57) participated in the study. Relations among cognitive skills (i.e., receptive…

Hasenäcker, Jana; Schroeder, Sascha – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Reading development involves several changes in orthographic processing. A key question is, "how does the coding of letters develops in children learning to read?" Masked priming effects of transposition and substitution primes have been taken to index the importance of letter position and identity coding. Somewhat contradicting results…

Bijlsma, Hannah J. E.; Glas, Cees A. W.; Visscher, Adrie J. – School Effectiveness and School Improvement, 2022
Modern digital technologies enable the efficient collection and processing of student perceptions of teaching quality. However, students' ratings could be confounded by student, teacher, and classroom characteristics. We investigated students' ratings of 26 teachers who used the digital tool Impact! in their mathematics lessons with 14- and…

Vanluydt, Elien; Verschaffel, Lieven; Van Dooren, Wim – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
The present study longitudinally investigated proportional reasoning abilities in early elementary school before the start of its instruction. Three aims were put forward: (a) distinguishing the different developmental states in young children's understanding of missing-value proportional situations, (b) investigating how children transition…

Pilotti, Maura A. E.; Elmoussa, Omar – Cogent Education, 2022
The present research examined the extent to which the initial approach to a research-writing course by STEM and non-STEM second-language learners may entail the contribution of different dispositions to course performance and ultimately be responsible for dissimilar outcomes. Individual differences in dispositions and behavior were assessed during…

Heck, Tanja; Meurers, Detmar; Nuxoll, Florian – Research-publishing.net, 2022
Foreign language teaching achieves best learning outcomes when individual differences of learners are taken into account. While it is difficult for teachers to support internal differentiation in the classroom, digital tools can adaptively propose individual learning paths through activities so that students can practice with appropriately…

Andrea Salvati – ProQuest LLC, 2022
This dissertation consists of two chapters on topics in economics of education. In the first chapter, I develop and estimate an equilibrium model of endogenous instruction and student effort in order to empirically investigate the relationship between instructional choices, classroom composition, and student achievement in elementary school. The…

Aznar-Díaz, Inmaculada; Trujillo-Torres, Juan-Manuel; Alonso-García, Santiago; Rodríguez-Jiménez, Carmen – Research in Social Sciences and Technology, 2019
The development of mobile devices has affected the way of life of university students, affecting their daily habits and sometimes their health. Specifically, in recent years a series of illnesses have developed as a result of the constant use of smartphones by the university population, which has come to be catalogued as an at-risk population. The…

Fitzpatrick, Dan; Burns, Jason – Campbell Systematic Reviews, 2019
Background: Research shows that over summer break, students forget approximately 1 month of learning in math and reading; furthermore, low-income students lose ground relative to peers. Year-round education (YRE) redistributes schooldays to shorten summer. Prior analyses pooled single-track YRE (academic intervention in which all students attend…

Kaushal, Rajesh Kumar; Panda, Surya Narayan – Malaysian Journal of Learning and Instruction, 2019
Purpose: The aim of this study is to find in which conditions animation based teaching style for example teaching through 2D or 3D animations or animated diagrams leads to the better learning outcome. To achieve this purpose, we compared these two conditions (i) animation based teaching style is effective when offered to high spatial ability…

Branigan, Heather E.; Donaldson, David I. – British Educational Research Journal, 2019
Structured thinking activities (STAs) are pedagogical tools used to support metacognition in classrooms. Despite their popularity, little is known about how pupils use STAs as platforms to think about and manage their own thinking (i.e. as metacognitive tools). This case study investigated pupils' use of STAs in relation to metacognition…

M.; Dionne, Ginette; Brendgen, Mara; Vitaro, Frank; Tremblay, Richard E.; Boivin, Michel; Kovas, Yulia – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2019
Background: The number line task assesses the ability to estimate numerical magnitudes. People vary greatly in this ability, and this variability has been previously associated with mathematical skills. However, the sources of individual differences in number line estimation and its association with mathematics are not fully understood. Aims: This…

Caceffo, Ricardo; Valle, Eduardo; Mesquita, Rickson; Azevedo, Rodolfo – European Journal of Physics Education, 2019
According to the Felder and Silverman Learning Styles Model (FSM), students have learning preferences regarding how information is obtained, processed, perceived and understood. The Index of Learning Styles (ILS) is an online questionnaire created by Felder and Soloman to classify students according to their learning styles. With a priori…

Sidi, Yael; Blau, Ina; Eshet-Alkalai, Yoram – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
Academic dishonesty has been growing in both digital and analog settings. The present study aimed to generalize the ethical dissonance index (EDI), which was established in a sample of Israeli school students as the gap between the pervasiveness of academic dishonesty and its perceived legitimacy. Furthermore, the study examined how technology,…
