Chimuma, Lilian L.; DeLoach Johnson, Iris – Educational Research: Theory and Practice, 2016
This mixed methods study explored the pre and post use of metacognitive problem solving skills of 15 undergraduate students enrolled in a mathematics class in a Midwestern university. Participants' progress in their metacognitive self-talk and group-talk was monitored as they used Pulse® Smartpens to simultaneously capture their writing and spoken…

Donovan, Deirdre W. – ProQuest LLC, 2016
As our society has become increasingly data dependent, statistics education has emerged as a field of study. Research has focused on statistics course content outcomes, showing most students struggle with statistical concepts, including variation and the standard deviation. Variation is a foundational concept in statistics. Without a firm grasp of…

Balint, Trevor A. – ProQuest LLC, 2016
With online education comes large amounts of data that can reveal in ways able to be examined quantitatively only sparingly in the past, the physics problem-solving profiles of students. This project uses fundamental research to analyze physics problem-solving behavior of students enrolled in the Massive Open Online Course 8.MReVx offered on the…

Zhang, Pingping; Manouchehri, Azita – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2016
Based on the findings of a larger study on middle school students' problem solving behaviors, we identified three sub-components for understanding the iteration of unit area in this paper: the mechanism of iteration, an identical unit, and the specificity of the identical unit. A three-stage progression on the acquisition of these components is…

Fulbright, Ron – Association Supporting Computer Users in Education, 2016
We are at the beginning of a new era in human history--the cognitive augmentation era. Until now, humans have had to do all of the thinking. The future will make it possible for humans to partner with cognitive systems doing some of the thinking themselves and in many ways thinking that is superior to humans. Together, humans and "cogs"…

Sekar, J. Master Arul – Online Submission, 2016
The present study aims to find out the level of social intelligence and metacognition of adolescents and the correlation between social intelligence and metacognition of adolescents. Since it is a fact-finding expedition, survey method was adopted by the investigator. Stratified random sampling techniques of 120 adolescents falling in the age…

Paul Marshall; Timothy W. Bredy – npj Science of Learning, 2016
A complete understanding of the fundamental mechanisms of learning and memory continues to elude neuroscientists. Although many important discoveries have been made, the question of how memories are encoded and maintained at the molecular level remains. So far, this issue has been framed within the context of one of the most dominant concepts in…

Courtney Morgan Pollack – ProQuest LLC, 2016
The ability for students to understand numbers and other mathematical symbols is a crucial part of success in mathematics. Accordingly, it is important for researchers to understand the nature of symbolic number processing -- the connections between a symbol or collection of symbols that convey numerical information (e.g., Arabic digits,…

Taylan, Rukiye Didem – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2017
This study investigated a highly accomplished third-grade teacher's noticing of students' mathematical thinking as she taught multiplication and division. Through an innovative method, which allowed for documenting in-the-moment teacher noticing, the author was able to explore teacher noticing and reflective practices in the context of classroom…

Munson, Benjamin; Krause, Miriam O. P. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2017
Background: Psycholinguistic models of language production provide a framework for determining the locus of language breakdown that leads to speech-sound disorder (SSD) in children. Aims: To examine whether children with SSD differ from their age-matched peers with typical speech and language development (TD) in the ability phonologically to…

Wibawa, Kadek Adi; Nusantara, Toto; Subanji; Parta, I. Nengah – International Education Studies, 2017
This study aims to reveal the fragmentation of thinking structure's students in solving the problems of application definite integral in area. Fragmentation is a term on the computer (storage) that is highly relevant correlated with theoretical constructions that occur in the human brain (memory). Almost every student has a different way to…

Childers, Jane B.; Paik, Jae H.; Flores, Melissa; Lai, Gabrielle; Dolan, Megan – Cognitive Science, 2017
Extending new verbs is important in becoming a productive speaker of a language. Prior results show children have difficulty extending verbs when they have seen events with varied agents. This study further examines the impact of variability on verb learning and asks whether variability interacts with event complexity or differs by language.…

Miller-Young, Janice; Boman, Jennifer – New Directions for Teaching and Learning, 2017
This chapter presents the bottlenecks identified by seven faculty members from diverse disciplines and an inductive content analysis of their Decoding interviews. Representative quotations illustrate themes in the interviews and we consider the implications for both faculty development and pedagogical research.

Background: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common, highly heritable neurodevelopmental disorder with profound cognitive, behavioral, and psychosocial impairments with persistence across the life cycle. Our initial genome-wide screening approach for copy number variants (CNVs) in ADHD implicated a duplication of…
