William McHenry – Journal of Management Education, 2024
The prevalent paradigm for understanding what constitutes a 'good' data visualization, and what we are likely teaching business students, relates to a conventional wisdom of efficiency, clarity, transparency, and faithful representation of truth. Teaching about the ethics of visualizations seems to be largely absent from business school curricula.…

Johnson, Heather Lynn; McClintock, Evan D.; Gardner, Amber – Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education, 2020
We posit a dual approach to digital task design: to engineer opportunities for students to conceive of graphs as representing relationships between quantities and to foreground students' reasoning and exploration, rather than their answer-finding. Locally integrating Ference Marton's variation theory and Patrick Thompson's theory of quantitative…

Sengul, Ozden – School Science Review, 2020
This article describes the implementation of an activity with a Predict-Observe-Explain (POE) learning cycle to teach the concepts of velocity and acceleration to physics students aged 17-19. The study indicates how the instructor enacted the activity and provides sample student responses and group discussions. The description includes an example…

Bahtaji, Michael Allan A. – Cypriot Journal of Educational Sciences, 2020
The study presented investigates the effects of supportive graphical interventions on the graphing skills and conceptual understanding of students in physics. In this study, the first group of participants was presented with ready-made graphs during the instruction, the second group was instructed on the proper construction and extraction of…

Rosenblum, L. Penny; Cheng, Li; Zebehazy, Kim; Emerson, Robert Wall; Beal, Carole R. – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2020
Teachers of students with visual impairments clearly have an important opportunity to promote graphics literacy skills for students with visual impairments through providing descriptions to make educational content accessible. Guidelines for appropriate image descriptions have been developed by the National Center on Accessible Materials (NCAM), a…

Mitteer, Daniel R.; Greer, Brian D.; Fisher, Wayne W.; Cohrs, Victoria L. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2018
In this investigation, we (a) define the desirable features of publication-quality, single-case design graphs based on recommendations in the scholarly literature, (b) suggest GraphPad Prism as a suitable graphing program for creating graphs with those features, and (c) develop and validate a video-modeling tutorial designed to train behavior…

Lingefjärd, Thomas; Farahani, Djamshid – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2018
In understanding upper secondary school students' interpretations of information in graphical representations of a distance--time graph and an ECG graph, little attention has been paid to the analysis of the condition of the conceptual development related to their utterances. Understanding this better can help improve the teaching of…

Khosravi, Hassan; Cooper, Kendra M. L. – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2018
Educational environments continue to evolve rapidly to address the needs of diverse, growing student populations while embracing advances in pedagogy and technology. In this changing landscape, ensuring consistency among the assessments for different offerings of a course (within or across terms), providing meaningful feedback about student…

Paczesniak, Tomasz; Rydel-Ciszek, Katarzyna; Chmielarz, Pawel; Charczuk, Maria; Sobkowiak, Andrzej – Journal of Chemical Education, 2018
Spontaneity criteria for processes with useful (especially electrical) work have been discussed based on total differentials of thermodynamic functions. Reaction Gibbs energy ([Delta][subscript r]G) and electrochemical reaction Gibbs energy ([Delta][subscript r]G~) have been juxtaposed. Three-dimensional graphs showing the dependencies of…

Dart, Evan H.; Radley, Keith C. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2018
Single-case data are frequently used in school psychology. In research, single-case designs allow experimenters to provide rigorous demonstrations of treatment effects on a smaller scale and with more precise measurement than traditional group experimental design. In practice, single-case data are used to evaluate the effects of school-based…

Schneider, Johannes; Bernstein, Abraham; Brocke, Jan vom; Damevski, Kostadin; Shepherd, David C. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2018
All methodologies for detecting plagiarism to date have focused on the final digital "outcome", such as a document or source code. Our novel approach takes the creation process into account using logged events collected by special software or by the macro recorders found in most office applications. We look at an author's interaction…

de Winter, James – Physics Teacher, 2019
It is common for high school physics teachers to comment on the challenges they face in supporting students' graph drawing skills, knowing their importance for the study of physics. This paper suggests a novel and alternative way to support students to develop their graph drawing skills as well as teach them about sound, frequency, and amplitude.…

Harsh, Joseph A.; Campillo, Molly; Murray, Caylin; Myers, Christina; Nguyen, John; Maltese, Adam V. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2019
Given the centrality of data visualizations in communicating scientific information, increased emphasis has been placed on the development of students' graph literacy--the ability to generate and interpret data representations--to foster understanding of domain-specific knowledge and the successful navigation of everyday life. Despite prior…

Mohammed, M. A.; Ibrahim, A. I. N.; Siri, Z.; Noor, N. F. M. – Sociological Methods & Research, 2019
In this article, a numerical method integrated with statistical data simulation technique is introduced to solve a nonlinear system of ordinary differential equations with multiple random variable coefficients. The utilization of Monte Carlo simulation with central divided difference formula of finite difference (FD) method is repeated n times to…

Young, Kaisa E.; Young, Chadwick H. – Physics Teacher, 2019
Two of the most fundamental skills that students acquire in introductory undergraduate physics laboratory courses are how to accurately plot data and interpret the physical meaning of linear graphs. We redesigned our graphing skills lab with an open-ended approach designed to promote inquiry in graphical analysis and to address specific areas of…
