This study aims to describe the ability of students' mathematical connections in solving problems in the circle equation material through transposition studies. The method in this research is a descriptive qualitative approach, the techniques used in the study are tests, interviews, and documentation to explore data in research. Test and interview…

This is a review of experimental research in which students have been taught to pose mathematical problems as a means of developing their learning. Hence, the aim of the research is to combine the empirical evidence regarding the functionality of problem posing strategies and to explore the aspects which could influence the integration of problem…

GeoGebraBook is a pedagogical resource in the form of a digital book created and developed for free on the GeoGebra online page. This paper presents preliminary research using GeoGebraBook to support explaining the area of a flat figure and the volume of a solid. The study was based on qualitative and quantitative research and involved forty-four…

Despite generous funding, the current data shows slow-moving demographical changes in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) fields, and little to no slowing in the decline of STEM-associated career interests in underserved communities (Leeker, Maxey, Cardella & Hynes, 2019). While a considerable amount has been written about the…

This brochure describes how the Making Schools Work process employs a distributed leadership approach to involve the whole school in identifying problems that impact achievement and developing plans to solve them. SREB's Making Schools Work school improvement process is grounded in the belief that increased achievement starts with motivating…

Despite decades of passing civic initiatives to revitalize civic education, youth citizen participation, and young adult voter registration is low--most youth cannot even name one member of U.S. Congress. It also cannot be assumed youth will naturally become civically engaged and aware through their family and community. In addition, people of…

The purpose of this action research was to evaluate the effect educational robotics have on the programming comprehension and motivation of preservice teachers. Computer science is increasingly being integrated into K-8 curricula across the country. However, there are few teachers trained to teach basic computer science concepts. Core subject…

Student disruptive behaviors have significantly interfered with teaching and have been a crucial challenge and concern for educators. Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) has been adopted to combat the effects of student disruptive behaviors in several schools. However, research shows that most educators are often left out by the…

Children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) frequently engage in escape-maintained problem behavior, which can limit their access to academic instruction and lead to placement in more restrictive educational settings. While there are function-based interventions to treat escape-maintained problem behavior, these interventions…

Parent-teacher collaboration in early childhood education has been found to have a positive effect on students in the areas of academic achievement and appropriate behavior. The importance of enhancing parent-teacher collaboration in children's education has been supported by research (Walker, Shenker, & Hoover-Dempsey, 2010; Moorhouse &…

In 1970, Freire introduced critical pedagogy in Pedagogy of the Oppressed. Since that time, critical pedagogy has been widely applied in general education and has slowly integrated into music, theater, dance, and visual arts education. Rooted in the critical examination of power, critical pedagogy is a way of critically examining how we…

Peer interaction supports adolescents in developing communicative, emotional, and social competence. Social interaction, however, poses many challenges for adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and complex communication needs. This study used a multiple-probe across participants design to assess the impact of an intervention using videos…

The unit factor method, a generic strategy for solving any proportion-related problem, is known to be effective at reducing cognitive load through unit-cancellation providing step-by-step guidance. However, concerns have been raised that it can be applied mindlessly. This primarily quantitative prepost study investigates the efficacy of…

Findings in the literature strongly support the importance of family engagement in education. However, effective partnerships between families and schools are rare, especially in ethnically diverse communities where families may lack efficacy or face structural challenges for engagement. Additionally, educator perspectives toward engagement are…

Objective: To explore the symptomatic features of homesickness in Australian adolescent males during their first year at boarding school, as well as its dimensionality, coping strategies, and the relationship with academic, resilience, emotional and mental health factors. Method: Drawing on a larger, longitudinal study (n = 174 students), survey…
