Tian, Jing; Dam, Su; Gunderson, Elizabeth A. – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Recently, there has been increasing evidence showing that males estimate whole numbers more accurately than females on the number line. However, relatively little is known about what factors contribute to this gender gap. The current study explored potential mediators of the gender difference in number line estimation, including spatial skills and…

Fergusson, Anna; Pfannkuch, Maxine – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2022
Tasks for teaching predictive modelling and APIs often require learners to use code-driven tools. Minimal research, however, exists about the design of tasks that support the introduction of high school students and teachers to these new statistical and computational methods. Using a design-based research approach, a web-based task was developed.…

Garret J. Hall; Mitchell A. Markham; Meghan McMackin; Elizabeth C. Moore; Craig A. Albers – Grantee Submission, 2022
The current study examined the validity of curriculum-based measures (CBM) in mathematics computation (M-COMP) and oral reading fluency (R-CBM) in predicting spring mathematics and reading performance level and performance risk (>1 SD below the national mean) among students classified as English Learners (ELs). Additionally, the current study…

Karabey, Burak – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2019
This study aims to introduce a method that is based on the relationship between numbers and geometry, which can be used to show the exact location of rational numbers on the number line, compare rational numbers, make calculations, and examine rational numbers conceptually through parallel lines. It is believed that this method will to contribute…

Baroutsis, Aspa; White, Sonia L. J.; Ferdinands, Ella; Goldsmith, William; Lambert, Elizabeth – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2019
Computational thinking can be defined as "solving problems, designing systems, and understanding human behaviour, by drawing on the concepts fundamental to computer science" (Wing, 2006, p. 33). There are strong links between computational thinking associated with coding and mathematical thinking (Wing, 2006). The digital technologies…

Melkonian, Vardges – PRIMUS, 2019
This paper discusses a game that can be used for introducing the binary representation of integers in an interactive and fun environment. The game is introduced in the way it is presented in an undergraduate Discrete Mathematics class. Variations of the game are discussed, particularly its extension to base-three representation of integers. It is…

Morano, Stephanie; Riccomini, Paul J.; Lee, Joo-Young – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2019
Abstract Assessment results are used to investigate relations between performance on a fraction number line estimation task and a circular area model estimation task for students with LD in Grades 6-8. Results indicate that students' abilities to represent fractions on number lines and on circular area models are distinct skills. In addition,…

Liebscher, Eckhard; Michael, Ben – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2019
In the paper a software solution is presented for the generation of instances of exercises. The focus is on education in mathematics but the approach can be adopted in other fields such as computer science and natural science. The present solution uses the R environment for the generation process and LaTeX for the content presentation. In the…

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…

Latour, Austin W.; Peterson, David D.; Riner, Daniel D. – International Journal of Kinesiology in Higher Education, 2019
As a result of a Department of Defense (DoD) mandate, the U.S. Navy implemented its current body composition assessment (BCA) program in 1982. Despite the feasibility of the current program, its reliability, validity, and applicability have long since been called into question. As a result of these concerns, the Naval Health Research Center (NHRC)…

Kurniawan, Oka; Koh, Li Ling Apple; Cheng, Jermaine Zhi Min Cheng; Pee, Maggie – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
Integrating knowledge across disciplines has been shown to be a challenging, and yet it is a necessary skill that university students need to develop. Students who are able to connect different concepts, perspectives, and angles of a given topic are generally more engaged and have better understanding. However, designing lesson plans or…
