Lo, Wing Yee – International Journal of Instruction, 2021
Given the relationship between teacher beliefs and practices, it is critical to understand how pre-service teachers' past school experiences impact on their beliefs about teaching. There is a growing recognition of the influence of preservice teachers' prior mathematical experiences on their beliefs regarding mathematics instruction in the primary…

Wang, Zhe; Adesope, Olusola; Sundararajan, NarayanKripa; Buckley, Paul – Educational Psychology, 2021
There is widespread evidence showing that concept maps are effective for learning. However, little is known about the effects of various concept map activities. We conducted an experiment to examine the comparative effectiveness of three concept map activities: (1) translating a complete map to a paragraph format; (2) filling in concepts in a…

Kersten, Kristin – Online Submission, 2021
Theoretical approaches within the cognitive-interactionist framework (Long, 2015) have identified various aspects of L2 input and characteristics of instruction that predict learners' L2 outcomes. Such strategies of L2 teaching relate to shaping characteristics of communicative activities in which the L2 is embedded and modifying L2 input, L2…

Carolyn Pietrucha Masserang – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Low achievement in mathematics begins long before students arrive at college. National data shows that between 60% and 75% of high school seniors in the U.S. are underprepared for college-level mathematics and may end up enrolling in developmental mathematics. Developmental mathematics refers to mathematics courses taken in college that are…

Moodie, Nikki – Australian Educational Researcher, 2019
The idea of 'threshold concepts' for Indigenous studies has received little attention in the literature to date. Page's work is the notable exception, identifying the basis for what may constitute threshold concepts in this field. This paper builds on Page's approach by providing a theoretical consideration of five ideas that may function as…

James, Emma; Gaskell, M. Gareth; Henderson, Lisa M. – Developmental Science, 2019
Prior linguistic knowledge is proposed to support the acquisition and consolidation of new words. Adults typically have larger vocabularies to support word learning than children, but the developing brain shows enhanced neural processes that are associated with offline memory consolidation. This study investigated contributions of prior knowledge…
