This study aimed to analyse whether primary school mathematics textbooks in Turkey (grades 1 to 4) are fair concerning gender. The study analysed four mathematics textbooks approved by the Ministry of National Education and published for use in the 2019-2020 school year. These books were examined in terms of the ratio of the appearances of women…

In the teaching and learning of physics, simulations have many applications. Simulations can help to illuminate concepts (such as the motion of electrons in electric or magnetic fields) that cannot usually be seen with the unaided eye, or to slow down things that happen over short time periods or at high speeds. They can also be used to help…

Reasoning is handled as a basic process skill in mathematics teaching. When the literature was examined, it was seen that many types of reasoning related to mathematics education were mentioned. In the present study, it was focused on visual reasoning, which is one of the types of reasoning and also used in different research areas. The purpose of…

This empirical study examined preferences between teacher-centered and student-centered teaching methods and academic major with 507 undergraduate college students. Surveys were administered to the students that assessed their level of agreement with teaching methods utilized in the classroom. The results indicate that across all academic majors,…

In contrast to traditional word spans with verbal recall, recently developed automated tasks employ a visuospatial response format (RF). This RF involves additional cognitive processes such as recoding and visual search, which develop across childhood. The aim of the present study was to extend previous findings on age-dependent RF effects,…

The student's scientific literacy is vital in improving students' awareness of several issues. This study was intended to describe the effect of the SETS learning approach combined with Vee Diagram on students' scientific literacy especially on Environmental Pollution Material. This study used a nonequivalent pretest-posttest control group design.…

The paper investigates the use of dashboards and data visualizations as a teaching tools in accounting units. Accounting has a growing demand for data analytics and visualization and current graduates usually lack understanding and skills in this area. The paper addresses this gap by introducing dashboards and data visualizations in teaching…

Teaching sexual and gender minority (SGM) health in undergraduate medical education has become a priority. We have authored and evaluated an infographic to introduce first-year students to SGM health, identity, and clinical communication skills. A realist and constructivist qualitative design employed audio-recorded and transcribed student focus…

This study explored nursery practitioners 'slowed down' documentary photography in everyday moments. The enquiry draws on Documentary Photography, Visual Sociology and Early Childhood and entails a novel application of the theoretical concept of 'presence' (Senge, P., C. O. Scharmer, J. Jaworski, and B. S. Flowers. 2008. "Presence: Exploring…

In the early 1880s, Belgian educators were confronted for the first time with calls for the use of the optical lantern in schools. Around the same time, new pedagogical theories gained ground, which argued in favour of visually aided, more experiential forms of teaching. By investigating the pedagogical discourse on the introduction and use of…

Today, there is no consensus about proper timing and conditions for integration of PowerPoint presentations into the educational process. But the model-based evaluation can make a decision-making process easier when it comes to using presentations. The purpose of this study is to build a formal model to evaluate presentations. In order to build a…

Anxiety disorders are among the most common co-occurring disorders for individuals with ASD. Several adaptations to cognitive behavioral approaches have been proposed for this population (Moree & Davis, 2010). The current study examined feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an ASD-specific adaptation of one-session treatment (OST) for…

With the impact of the COVID pandemic, many students have been learning mathematics online. This article shows how emojis can be used as a virtual manipulative in online and digital learning platforms.

Introduction: Developing graphicacy skills is important for students with visual impairments if they are to succeed in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) content. Teachers of students with visual impairments report that they lack resources to use in teaching students graphicacy skills. Methods: Forty-one students with visual…

Engineering students used ClassTranscribe, an accessible video player, in multiple engineering courses to view course videos and search for video content. The tool collected detailed timestamped student behavioral data from 1,894 students across 25 engineering courses that included what individual students searched for and when. A previous…
