Vondrová, Nada; Novotná, Jarmila; Havlícková, Radka – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2019
Research has shown that word problem difficulty is influenced by various linguistic, numerical and general variables, but results in this area are inconsistent. This paper focuses on the question of how the order of numerical data, the context, the position of the unknown transformation, and the length of the statement in an additive word problem,…

Cai, Zhiqiang; Siebert-Evenstone, Amanda; Eagan, Brendan; Shaffer, David Williamson; Hu, Xiangen; Graesser, Arthur C. – Grantee Submission, 2019
Coding is a process of assigning meaning to a given piece of evidence. Evidence may be found in a variety of data types, including documents, research interviews, posts from social media, conversations from learning platforms, or any source of data that may provide insights for the questions under qualitative study. In this study, we focus on text…

Liu, Bowen; Kennedy, Patrick C.; Seipel, Ben; Carlson, Sarah E.; Biancarosa, Gina; Davison, Mark L. – Grantee Submission, 2019
This paper describes an on-going project to develop a formative, inferential reading comprehension assessment of causal story comprehension. It has three features to enhance classroom use: equated scale scores for progress monitoring within and across grades, a scale score to distinguish among low-scoring students based on patterns of mistakes,…

Rehman, Ivana; Silpachai, Alif; Levis, John; Zhao, Guanlong; Gutierrez-Osuna, Ricardo – Language Teaching Research, 2022
The accurate identification of likely segmental pronunciation errors produced by nonnative speakers of English is a longstanding goal in pronunciation teaching. Most lists of pronunciation errors for speakers of a particular first language (L1) are based on the experience of expert linguists or teachers of English as a second language (ESL) and…

Akbas, Elif Ertem; Alan, Kübra – Online Submission, 2022
Due to the fact that the pandemic process did not occur in a predictable time frame, various difficulties have arisen in the field of education. This is also true in mathematics education, and concretization has been one of the biggest obstacles. This situation paved the way for concept learning errors that may occur in students. There are some…

Botarleanu, Robert-Mihai; Dascalu, Mihai; Watanabe, Micah; Crossley, Scott Andrew; McNamara, Danielle S. – Grantee Submission, 2022
Age of acquisition (AoA) is a measure of word complexity which refers to the age at which a word is typically learned. AoA measures have shown strong correlations with reading comprehension, lexical decision times, and writing quality. AoA scores based on both adult and child data have limitations that allow for error in measurement, and increase…

Jennifer Cabrelli; Michael Iverson – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2024
While formal L3 morphosyntactic acquisition research has focused on the roles of the L1 versus L2 during the L3 initial stages, we examine their roles during development. Specifically, we explore whether the L3 (here, Portuguese) revision process after non-facilitative transfer differs whether the initial L3 representation reflects the L1 or L2.…

Jody Samuels – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Reading fluency involves a complex interaction of different cognitive skills and abilities that develop with instruction and practice and relies on the automaticity of many distinct reading skills (e.g., pacing, word recognition, expression, phonological awareness). Fluent reading frees cognitive resources, such as working memory, for more…

Du, Wei; Saeheaw, Teeraporn – Language Learning in Higher Education, 2020
Translation teachers have long experimented with various methods to help students improve their translation competence. This study approaches the issue by developing an assessment framework based on error analysis and a translation grading system, with the aim of identifying the most common and frequent errors committed by students in their…

Beyersmann, Elisabeth; Mousikou, Petroula; Javourey-Drevet, Ludivine; Schroeder, Sascha; Ziegler, Johannes C.; Grainger, Jonathan – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2020
The present study examined cross-linguistic differences in morphological processing in the visual and auditory modality. French and German adults performed a visual and auditory lexical decision task that involved the same translation-equivalent items. The focus of the study was on nonwords, which were constructed in a way that made it possible to…

Yell, Mitchell L.; Katsiyannis, Antonis; Ennis, Robin Parks; Losinski, Mickey; Bateman, David – TEACHING Exceptional Children, 2020
The goal of this article is to assist individualized education program (IEP) team personnel to not make errors in the placement of students. To do so the authors: (1) describe what a placement decision is and who makes the decision; (2) review the placement requirements of the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA, 2006); (3) examine…

Tabacu, Lucia M.; Watson, Silvana Maria; Chezar, Laura C.; Gable, Robert; Oliveira, Célia R.; Lopes, João – Preventing School Failure, 2020
We examined the type of errors on multiplication and division computation problems of 326 rising fifth graders enrolled in four elementary schools in Northern Portugal. We further examined whether there was a difference in the number of errors across age and whether there was an association between students' performance on number knowledge and…

Gun, Mesut; Yigit, Ali – Educational Policy Analysis and Strategic Research, 2020
Having a significant role in communication, speaking skill is an inborn and improvable ability. Since their existence, human beings have consistently improved this ability in order to communicate with others. Besides, one of the most fundamental keystones of making a healthy contact and living in harmony with different societies are no doubt being…
