Malkiewich, Laura J.; Chase, Catherine C. – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2019
Engaging in engineering tasks can help students learn science concepts. However, many engineering tasks lead students to focus more on the success of their construction than on learning science content, which can hurt students' ability to learn and transfer scientific principles from them. Two empirical studies investigate how content-focused…

McKay, Michael T.; Perry, John L.; Worrell, Frank C.; Cole, Jon C. – Child Care in Practice, 2022
A number of recent studies have demonstrated that adolescents consider the future consequences (CFC) of behaviours domain-specifically. In other words, rather than being a "future orientated person," it appears that the orientation varies within individuals, depending on the domain in question. The present study matched data gathered in…

Wang, Jing; Rao, Nirmala – Asia Pacific Journal of Education, 2022

Clark, Amy; Kobrin, Jennifer L.; Karvonen, Meagan; Hirt, Ashley – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2023
Large-scale summative assessment results are typically used for program-evaluation and resource-allocation purposes; however, stakeholders increasingly desire results from large-scale K-12 assessments that inform instruction. Because large-scale summative results are usually delivered after the end of the school year, teacher use of results is…

Expectancy-value theory mostly focuses on how expectancy and value beliefs are associated with academic achievement. Both expectancy and value beliefs are multidimensional and can be further decomposed into general and specific factors. However, few studies have explored the associations of these general and specific factors with academic…
