This paper presents an analysis of fractions errors displayed by learners due to deficient mastery of prerequisite concepts. Fractions continue to pose a critical challenge for learners. Fractions can be a tricky concept for learners although they often use the concept of sharing in their daily lives. 30 purposefully sampled learners participated…

The COVID-19 pandemic is a challenge to education. To address this crisis, online or distance learning came to the fore. Educators recommended student-centered practices to weather the storm. Therefore, the incorporation of self-regulated learning (SRL) and metacognitive learning strategies (MLS) into online learning is considered necessary.…

This work aims at studying the anxiety and motivation levels of secondary school students towards science course depending on gender, class levels, and their parents' level of education. In addition, it was aimed to examine the relationship between students' anxiety, motivation, and academic achievement towards science course. The study relies on…

The aim of this study was to analyze the attainments of map literacy skills in the 2018 Social Studies course curriculum according to the learning areas and examine the applicability of the program. The research sought answers to the following questions: 1. How is the distribution of attainments related to map literacy skills in the 2018 Social…

In recent years, attention has turned to the development of evidenced-based learning progressions/trajectories as a means of identifying the likely paths learners might take in developing a deep, well-connected understanding of key aspects of mathematics. However, the extent to which this work influences what happens in mathematics classrooms…

Parental involvement plays a significant role in students' social and academic outcomes. Nevertheless, systemic ways of gathering parental views have not been used or highlighted in the policy arena or the literature. Using data from the first major statewide survey of parents in California, drawn from the California School Parent Survey (N =…

Many studies conducted in the last decades report that very few elementary-grades students understand the meaning of = in mathematics, and that upper-elementary students do not understand it any better than the lower-elementary students do. Using data from thousands of Florida elementary students, we show that students in Florida perform ten to…

Career and technical education (CTE) has long endured public scrutiny and bias, but unfortunately, the extent to which varying opinions have permeated secondary schools remains elusive. Therefore, this study examined secondary administrator, counselor, and subject-specific teacher opinions in three areas: (a) student secondary and postsecondary…

We examined the relation of morphological awareness with language and literacy skills, namely phonological awareness, orthographic awareness, vocabulary, word reading, spelling, text reading fluency, and reading comprehension. We also examined potential moderators of the relations (grade level, orthographic depth of language, receptive vs.…

A key factor in supporting talent development among gifted students is the fostering of a growth mindset in their learning. However, there has been little research on the subject-specific mindsets of these students and their teachers. This study examined the mindsets of academically gifted Finnish upper-secondary students (N = 164) and Finnish…

The aim of this study was to determine sustainable learning levels of students. The study also attempted to determine sustainable learning levels of students based on gender and grade. The participants of the study consisted of 742 high school students (354 females and 388 males) in various high schools in Babaeski district of Kirklareli, Turkey…

Despite a tremendous success in boosting students learn electrical analogies for science education, it remains a challenge to extend such strategy for formally constructing equations related to the Ohm's law in order to solve electrical problems based on series and parallel circuits. Unlike most traditional works of teaching technique that focus…

The current study explored the difficulties teachers encounter when teaching common fractions division, focusing on teachers' knowledge concerning this issue. Nine teachers who study towards a M.Ed. degree in mathematics education demonstrated the algorithms they apply in order to solve fractions division problems, described how they teach the…

This study established indicators for the development of scientific imagination (SI) via digital storytelling (DS) and developed and validated a scale for DS-based scientific imagination (DSSI) to understand how it develops in elementary school students. Two samples of fourth- to sixth-grade students in Taiwan participated in a development test,…

Students in public education are expected to attend school on a regular basis to learn. This study applied multiple linear regression models and binary logistic regression models to analyze the effect of risk of early chronic absence pattern on later math achievement by using student level longitudinal data. Results showed that students with small…
