Wares, Arsalan – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
The purpose of this note is to introduce two challenging problems in geometry that were inspired by some well-known problems in high school geometry. These problems can be explored in the dynamic geometry environments of computer construction programmes.

Senyigit, Çigdem – International Online Journal of Primary Education, 2021
The aim of this research is to investigate the effect of problem-based learning on misconceptions and conceptual understanding regarding simple electric circuits. Participants are 54 pre-service primary school teachers enrolled on the "Basic Science in Elementary School" course at a state university. The research employs a nonequivalent…

Wackerly, Jay Wm. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
This commentary provides an overview of abduction, also known as Inference to the Best Explanation, and argues that the term and relevant problem-solving methods should be adopted by chemistry educators. Abductive reasoning, especially within the context of science and medicine, continues to be an active area of exploration for philosophers and…

Sanchez, Juan M. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Systematic errors are unfortunately common in analyses performed by students in teaching laboratories. Quality control (QC) tools are required to detect and solve bias in laboratory analyses. However, although QC has become routine in real-world laboratories, it is still rarely applied in teaching laboratories. For this reason, systematic errors…

Xie, Heping; Zhao, Tingting; Deng, Sue; Peng, Ji; Wang, Fuxing; Zhou, Zongkui – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
Eye movement modelling examples (EMME) are computer-based videos displaying the visualized eye gaze behaviour of a domain expert person (model) while carefully executing the learning or problem-solving task. The role of EMME in promoting cognitive performance (i.e., final scores of learning outcome or problem solving) has been questioned due to…

Talandron-Felipe, May Marie P.; Rodrigo, Ma. Mercedes T. – Research and Practice in Technology Enhanced Learning, 2021
The incubation effect (IE) is a problem-solving phenomenon composed of three phases: pre-incubation where one fails to solve a problem; incubation, a momentary break where time is spent away from the unsolved problem; and post-incubation where the unsolved problem is revisited and solved. Literature on IE was limited to experiments involving…

Mellone, Maria; Pacelli, Tiziana; Liljedahl, Peter – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2021
This study concerns a professional development course designed and implemented for prospective teachers, centred on a teaching method regarding problem-solving activity, namely, the Thinking Classroom. The study is framed in the theory of cultural transposition, a perspective about the encounter with teaching practices from different…

Sharpe, Ashlyn N.; Joslyn, P. Raymond – Education and Treatment of Children, 2021
The Good Behavior Game (GBG) and a common variation referred to as the Caught Being Good Game (CBGG) are two well-established group contingency classroom management procedures. However, there have been few comparison studies of the two procedures, and none have been conducted with students older than kindergarten or those who engage in severe…

Denning, Peter J.; Tedre, Matti – Informatics in Education, 2021
Over its short disciplinary history, computing has seen a stunning number of descriptions of the field's characteristic ways of thinking and practicing, under a large number of different labels. One of the more recent variants, notably in the context of K-12 education, is "computational thinking", which became popular in the early 2000s,…

Venkat, Radhika; Gupta, Amit; Banerjee, Jayanta; Chellappan, Ramesh Babu – Action Learning: Research and Practice, 2021
Scholars have examined Revans' problem-solving praxeology in many contexts but have not fully explored the concept in the case of physical co-location. Hence, we focussed on investigating Revans' conceptualisation in a co-located context by paying particular attention to the 'different forms of learning' that emerged from it. The research setting…

Hogan, Mairéad; Young, Karen – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2021
The challenges of designing group assignments in university environments, with the aim of effectively developing teamwork skills, are well documented. It is often assumed that simply placing students in assignment groups will facilitate the development of the task and interpersonal skills necessary for teamwork. However, very often students…

Choi, Moonsun; Cristol, Dean – Theory Into Practice, 2021
This article presents a review of interdisciplinary scholarship on digital citizenship with 3 different approaches: unidimensional, multidimensional, and critical/radical approaches. By addressing the intersectionality as a critical framework and inquiry, this article advances the concept of digital citizenship effectively responding to the…

de Pinho, Luis Antonio; Alves, Luiz Anastácio; Comarú, Michele Waltz; da Luz, Maurício Roberto Motta Pinto; Lopes, Renato Matos – Advances in Physiology Education, 2021
In problem-based learning (PBL), the steps and processes present in the PBL tutorial cycle are essential for constructive, self-directed, collaborative, and contextual student learning. This article presents a procedural study of a PBL tutorial cycle with high school students new to the method regarding human respiration and circulation…

García-Ponce, Ángel Luis; Martínez-Poveda, Beatriz; Blanco-López, Ángel; Quesada, Ana R.; Suárez, Fernanda; Alonso-Carrión, Francisco José; Medina, Miguel Ángel – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
Metabolism and its regulation is one of the most complex and difficult topics for students learning biochemistry. A problem-/case-based learning (PBL) approach can be useful to help biochemistry students to fulfill the goal of acquiring an integrated view of metabolism and its regulation. The present article describes our experience enrolling…

Buzzai, Caterina; Filippello, Pina; Costa, Sebastiano; Amato, Verdiana; Sorrenti, Luana – Social Psychology of Education: An International Journal, 2021
In accordance with the Self-Determination Theory, the interpersonal behavior of others can support or thwart the basic psychological needs and influence the well-being of students. Furthermore, several studies have shown that problematic internet use has a negative influence on the academic field. However, no studies have investigated the impact…
