The ability of solving problems collaboratively has been increasingly significant. This research takes mathematics open-ended problems as the tasks and carries out collaborative problem solving with multi-machine video recording in the classroom environment aimed at 112 student pairs and 56 four-person student groups stemming from 224 students in…

Introduction: Adults with intellectual disabilities have an increased vulnerability to mental health problems and challenging behaviour. In addition to psychotherapeutic or psychoeducational methods, off-label pharmacotherapy, is a commonly used treatment modality. Objective: The aim of this study was to establish evidence-based guideline…

Across decades, science educators have invested in curricula that presume scientific unity. The phrases "habits of mind, scientific method, processes of science, inquiry skills, nature of science, practices of science" reflect this obsession. However, historians look with skepticism at universal notions of science and endorse…

The current study outlines the successful behavioral assessment and treatment of compulsive behaviors in a high-functioning adolescent with autism. After a functional assessment suggested that compulsive behavior was maintained by both social--negative and social--positive reinforcement, we demonstrated effects of functional communication…

Individuals learn to develop problem solving strategies and make connections between their mathematical ideas while programming, so they have the opportunity to improve their thinking skills. Scratch provides an environment to experience problem scenarios and encourages them to act out imagination while having fun. The purpose of the study is to…

This research shows that employing critical thinking (problem-solving and scientific reasoning) skills when learning about climate change helped undergraduate biology students to understand the subject matter better. In this post hoc analysis of pre- and post-test scores from a public Florida undergraduate college, we identified significant…

The empirical data in this study are from a series of two lessons on measurement implemented in seven classes with 119 six-year-old students in Sweden. Both problem solving and problem posing were shown to be important in early mathematics when students in this study worked on one problem-solving task and one problem-posing task on measurement. As…

In this study, a conceptual framework of measurement uncertainty was developed and used to guide the development of a multiple-choice concept test for the assessment of students' knowledge integration in learning measurement uncertainty. Based on assessment data and interview results, students were identified into three levels of knowledge…

Purpose: Learning is a series of activities arranged by the teacher that involves both mental and physical processes through the interaction of students and teachers with the learning environment and learning resources as well as between students and students to achieve the specified competencies. One of them is numeracy learning in mathematics…

Despite its crucial importance in physics, there are not many studies focusing on student difficulties and teaching strategies related to the (1D) wave equation in the PER literature. In order to contribute to fill this gap, we conducted a study with university students which focused on specific aspects that are crucial for understanding this…

The paper aims to propose an instrument to identify students' metacognitive strategies in mathematical modelling activities. The items were designed from a review regards metacognition and instruments already recognised in literature. This design comprises an instrument that differs from others in which the data were the self-reported students'…

Students' deep understanding of problem-solving can stimulate the presence of original solutions. This statement led this present study to explore the growth of students' mathematical understanding in producing original solutions through problem-solving. Fifty-five students, from two different junior high schools, are solving a two-dimensional…

This study describes prospective teachers' perspectives on collaborative problem-solving (CPS) in mathematics. The study employed a 20-item questionnaire distributed to 47 prospective mathematics teachers in Indonesia. The questionnaire responses were scored, and two participants with the highest and lowest mean score were interviewed. Despite…

This study aims to describe students' commognitive in solving algebraic problems. This research is a qualitative research with descriptive approach. The subjects of this research were fifth semester students of the mathematics education study program at the College of Taman Siswa Teacher Training and Education. The research subjects were 9…

Many students persistently misinterpret histograms. Literature suggests that having students solve dotplot items may prepare for interpreting histograms, as interpreting dotplots can help students realize that the statistical variable is presented on the horizontal axis. In this study, we explore a special case of this suggestion, namely, how…
