This study aims to scrutinise the cognitive and metacognitive strategies of the 6th-grade students while answering multiple-choice questions on "Human Body Systems" within the domain of their Biology course. In determining these strategies, the characteristics of multiple-choice questions (figures, graphs, explanations, etc.) were also…

Direct linkBuncher, Amanda; Hord, Casey; Weaver, Kitiara; Gamel, Zachary – Journal of Research in Special Educational Needs, 2019
The researchers conducted an exploratory, qualitative case study to describe a combination of mathematics teaching strategies for a sixth-grade student with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder as he engaged with sixth-grade level mathematics. The interventions utilised in this study combined the use of visual representations with a variation…

Warshauer, Hiroko Kawaguchi – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2015
Prior studies suggest that struggling to make sense of mathematics is a necessary component of learning mathematics with understanding. Little research exists, however, on what the struggles look like for middle school students and how they can be productive. This exploratory case study, which used episodes as units of analysis, examined 186…

Abrahamson, Dor – Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2012
Some intensive quantities, such as slope, velocity, or likelihood, are perceptually privileged in the sense that they are experienced as holistic, irreducible sensations. However, the formal expression of these quantities uses "a/b" analytic metrics; for example, the slope of a line is the quotient of its rise and run. Thus, whereas students'…

Tchoshanov, Mourat A. – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2011
The mixed method sequential nested study examines whether and how the cognitive type of teachers' content knowledge is associated with student achievement, and correlated with teaching practice. In the context of this study, the "cognitive type" refers to the kind of teacher content knowledge and thinking processes required to accomplish…

Lack, Brian – ProQuest LLC, 2010
The vision of K-12 standards-based mathematics reform embraces a greater emphasis on students' ability to communicate their understandings of mathematics by utilizing adaptive reasoning (i.e., reflection, explanation, and justification of thinking) through mathematics discourse. However, recent studies suggest that many students lack the…

Isiksal, Mine; Cakiroglu, Erdinc – Hacettepe University Journal of Education, 2008
The purpose of this study was to examine preservice mathematics teachers' knowledge about common (mis)conceptions and difficulties of elementary students. In addition, it was aimed to investigate preservice teachers' knowledge about the possible sources of these misconception/difficulties, and their suggested strategies to overcome those…
