Byrka, Marian F.; Sushchenko, Andrii V.; Svatiev, Andrii V.; Mazin, Vasyl M.; Veritov, Oleksandr I. – Journal of Educational Psychology - Propositos y Representaciones, 2021
The relevance of this article is due to the need to form and develop algorithmic thinking of higher education students as the main requirement of the information society following 21st century skills and competences for new millennium learners. The purpose of the article is to consider algorithmic thinking as a new dimension of learning in higher…

Courtney, Scott A.; Armstrong, Brittany – European Journal of STEM Education, 2021
In order to promote geometric understanding, teachers frequently use hands-on activities. Such activities can be used to expound upon the declarative statements and theorems of geometry. Using a compass, straightedge, and protractor, students are able to actively build conceptions involving bisectors, midpoints, and perpendicular lines.…

Chen, Pengfei; Chang, Yuan Cheng – International Journal of Higher Education, 2021
The aim of this study is to enhance students' creative problem-solving ability using a project-based learning approach. The study was based on a quasi-experimental design and the participants were 69 postgraduate students in the field of education management. There were 35 of the students assigned to the experimental group, and the remaining 34 to…

Fatmanissa, Namirah; Qomaria, Nur – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2021
This study aims to investigate prospective teachers' beliefs toward the realism of mathematics word problems. The study employed both quantitative and qualitative analysis. A 36- item survey was distributed to 28 prospective mathematics teachers in one of the private universities in Indonesia. The survey was developed using the framework proposed…

DiPenta, Mylène – Physics Teacher, 2021
Are you frustrated when students focus on "getting the right answer" without understanding why the physics works that way, or even why their own brains came to that conclusion? If so, this might be less about the student and more about the pedagogy--you might be stuck on the "One True Path," a way of thinking "that assumes…

Mungan, Carl E. – Physics Teacher, 2021
A common homework problem in many introductory physics courses is similar to the following. "A car drives at constant speed over a hill on a road in the shape of a vertical circular arc. What is the maximum speed the car can have and not lose contact with the road at the crest of the hill?" Unfortunately this problem is flawed, because…

Cliplef, Jayne – BU Journal of Graduate Studies in Education, 2021
The negative effects of bullying in school are substantial, yet educators trying to intervene face significant barriers. Such obstacles include ineffective intervention techniques and perceptual bias that gets in the way of recognizing bullying. Promising ways to overcome these barriers include the following strategies: using intervention methods…

Helton, Benjamin C. – Arts Education Policy Review, 2021
Policy can present any number of wicked problems for arts educators and advocates. The complexity of policy accompanied by a general lack of policy dexterity fuels the legitimacy gap between advocacy arguments and policy implementation and, thus, weakens the arts in the education policy realm. To help close the gap, common weak arguments in policy…

Borgstrom, Erica; Ellis, Julie – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2021
Research about dying is viewed as inherently sensitive because of how death is perceived in many societies. Such framing assumes participants are 'vulnerable' and at risk of 'harm' from research. Simultaneously, with increasing recognition of the importance of reflexivity, researchers can become (deeply) preoccupied with their actions and…

Hancock, Sally – Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management, 2021
Over the last two decades, international governments have positioned PhD holders as vital to prosperity -- and yet, understanding of PhD holders' economic, social and cultural contributions remains considerably undeveloped. This article shares insights from a secondary analysis study of PhD employment in the UK. This study made use of the…

Vanluydt, Elien; Wijns, Nore; Torbeyns, Joke; Van Dooren, Wim – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2021
Insight into early precursors of proportional reasoning is necessary to further our theoretical understanding of mathematical development and to guide early interventions. Although several researchers have suggested patterning as a possible precursor for proportional reasoning, there is little empirical evidence to support this assumption,…

Jupri, Al; Usdiyana, Dian; Sispiyati, Ririn – Journal of Research and Advances in Mathematics Education, 2021
One of the topics within the course of Essential Concepts in School Mathematics (ECSM) for prospective mathematics teachers concerns maximum and minimum problems. This type of problems requires mathematization, i.e., the activity of transforming a problem into a symbolic mathematics problem and of reorganizing within the mathematical system, in…

Myers, Jonté A.; Brownell, Mary T.; Griffin, Cynthia C.; Hughes, Elizabeth M.; Witzel, Bradley S.; Gage, Nicolas A.; Peyton, David; Acosta, Kelly; Wang, Jun – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2021
We quantitatively synthesized findings of quasi-experimental and randomized control studies of interventions designed to improve the mathematics achievement of secondary school students with mathematics difficulties (MD). We identified 45 studies (49 interventions) published between 1978 and 2020 and classified interventions into five categories:…

Morales, Jessica M.; Beis, Christina A. – Journal of Electronic Resources Librarianship, 2021
The objective of this study was to identify common communication issues that arise during the electronic resource lifecycle and identify communication strategies academic libraries are using effectively to manage electronic resources. A survey of academic librarians and staff received 240 responses and included 5-point Likert scale ratings on…

Silber, Steven; Cai, Jinfa – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2021
This study investigated 45 undergraduate students' mathematical problem posing based on four problem situations. This study was designed to better understand the kinds of problems they pose, and the kinds of mathematical ideas exhibited when problem posing. The findings of this study support that underprepared college students can pose…
