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…

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…

Lai, Maxine; Zax, Alexandra; Barth, Hilary – Developmental Science, 2018
Learning the meanings of Arabic numerals involves mapping the number symbols to mental representations of their corresponding, approximate numerical quantities. It is often assumed that performance on numerical tasks, such as number line estimation (NLE), is primarily driven by translating from a presented numeral to a mental representation of its…

Wieth, Mareike B.; Francis, Andrea P. – Teaching of Psychology, 2018
The interdisciplinary topic of creativity is both fascinating and controversial. In this review, we begin by highlighting the many ways that researchers conceptualize and define creativity, focusing in particular on the difference between everyday creativity and creativity associated with exceptional breakthroughs in thinking. In addition, we…

French, Jason A.; Menendez, David; Herrmann, Patricia A.; Evans, E. Margaret; Rosengren, Karl S. – Grantee Submission, 2018
We investigated children's (n = 120; 3- to 11-year-olds) and adults' (n = 18) reasoning about life-cycle changes in biological organisms by examining their endorsements of four different patterns of life- span changes. Participants were presented with two separate tasks: (a) judging possible adult versions of a juvenile animal and (b) judging…

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…
