Phillip K. Wood – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
The logistic and confined exponential curves are frequently used in studies of growth and learning. These models, which are nonlinear in their parameters, can be estimated using structural equation modeling software. This paper proposes a single combined model, a weighted combination of both models. Mplus, Proc Calis, and lavaan code for the model…

Karthigeyan Subramaniam; Nazia Khan; Christopher Sean Long; Mila Rosa Librea-Carden; Sumreen Asim – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
The purpose of this study was to address issues of potential gender bias in pre-service elementary teachers' conceptions of engineers and engineering using Freire's (2018) "Critical Consciousness" perspective. By identifying the biasness as causal and structural attributions, the study also aimed to construct a critical pedagogy…

Amota Ataneka; Fangxing Bai; Yanli Xie; Ben Kelcey; Nianbo Dong; Leigh McLean; Geoffrey Phelps – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Background: The analysis of mediating mechanisms attempts to examine the impact of, for example, teacher training by dismantling and testing the core components that comprise an underlying theory and program. This process is seen as a critical step in evaluating programs and mapping teacher development because it provides empirical tests of each…

Selcuk Acar; Denis Dumas; Peter Organisciak; Kelly Berthiaume – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2024
Creativity is highly valued in both education and the workforce, but assessing and developing creativity can be difficult without psychometrically robust and affordable tools. The open-ended nature of creativity assessments has made them difficult to score, expensive, often imprecise, and therefore impractical for school- or district-wide use. To…

Grant Clayton; Joseph Taylor – Sage Research Methods Cases, 2024
In the United States high school students may take college level courses that count for credit in both high school and college, often called dual enrollment. Students may take courses at their high school from certified instructors or at a local college. We investigate possible differences between these two groups of students using student level…

Region 1 Comprehensive Center, 2024
The Maine Department of Education (MDOE) wanted to better understand if their current educator workforce data collection could help them quantify supply and demand for educators in the state. They also wanted to understand if local school administrative units collected data that could inform future efforts to understand educator vacancies to…

Albreiki, Balqis; Habuza, Tetiana; Zaki, Nazar – International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 2023
Technological advances have significantly affected education, leading to the creation of online learning platforms such as virtual learning environments and massive open online courses. While these platforms offer a variety of features, none of them incorporates a module that accurately predicts students' academic performance and commitment.…

Yip, Sai-Kit Eason; Wong, Tin-Yau Terry; Kwan, Kam-Tai – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Understanding of the complement principle has been proposed as closely related to computational skills, but few studies have investigated their interrelations. The present longitudinal study attempted to clarify the picture by examining their potential cross-lagged relation. Fourth graders (n = 221) in Hong Kong received 3 cognitive assessments at…

Videnovik, Maja; Vold, Tone; Kiønig, Linda; Madevska Bogdanova, Ana; Trajkovik, Vladimir – International Journal of STEM Education, 2023
Using games in education has the potential to increase students' motivation and engagement in the learning process, gathering long-lasting practical knowledge. Expanding interest in implementing a game-based approach in computer science education highlights the need for a comprehensive overview of the literature research. This scoping review aims…

Baroody, Arthur J.; Mix, Kelly S.; Kartal, Gamze; Lai, Meng-lung – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
Number-recognition tasks, such as the how-many task, involve set-to-word mapping, and number-creation tasks, such as the give-n task, entail word-to-set mapping. The present study involved comparing sixty 3-year-olds' performance on the two tasks with collections of one to three items over three time points about 3 weeks apart. Inconsistent with…

Ramotowska, Sonia; Steinert-Threlkeld, Shane; Maanen, Leendert; Szymanik, Jakub – Cognitive Science, 2023
According to logical theories of meaning, a meaning of an expression can be formalized and encoded in truth conditions. Vagueness of the language and individual differences between people are a challenge to incorporate into the meaning representations. In this paper, we propose a new approach to study truth-conditional representations of vague…

Tirpáková, Anna; Gonda, Dalibor; Wiegerová, Adriana; Navrátilová, Hana – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2023
The presented article is dedicated to a new way of teaching substitution in algebra. In order to effectively master the subject matter, it is necessary for students to perceive the equal sign equivalently, to learn to manipulate expressions as objects, and to perceive and use transformations based on defining their own equivalences. According to…

Lv, Lin; Zhong, Baichang; Liu, Xiaofan – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
In K-12 education, Computational Thinking (CT) has been a trendy issue in mathematics education, but the approach and results of CT + Math are not yet clear enough. This paper systematically reviewed 22 SSCI journal papers from three perspectives: the current status, outcomes, and implications of mathematics and CT integration. Results indicate…

Green, Kimberly M.; Ferrell, Lantz – Journal of Instructional Pedagogies, 2023
Functions and formulas in spreadsheets provide an instructional opportunity to help students build their skills in identifying errors in their own work and identifying a path to go about correcting the errors. This paper provides examples of functions and equations used to create two approaches to calculating the solution to one problem, such as a…

O'Rear, Connor D.; Seip, Isabella; Azar, Joanna; Baroody, Arthur J.; McNeil, Nicole M. – Child Development, 2023
This study examined how book features influence talk during shared book reading. We used data from a study in which parent-child dyads (n = 157; child's M[subscript age] = 43.99 months; 88 girls, 69 boys; 91.72% of parents self-reported as white) were randomly assigned to read two number books. The focus was comparison talk (i.e., talk in which…
