Students with visual impairments face tremendous challenges in daily life while learning life skills as they do not have the benefit of visual cues. The skills that visually impaired students are expected to learn include not only everyday life skills, but also scientific process skills too. In this study, case study was used to develop an…

Davenport, Gaylon Christopher; Slate, John R. – Bulletin of Education and Research, 2019
In this investigation, the extent to which the mathematics performance of Texas Grade 3 students differed by their economic status (i.e., Not Poor, Moderately Poor, and Very Poor) was addressed. Three mathematics indicators (i.e., Approaches, Meets, and Masters Grade Level) from the 2015- 2016 Texas state-mandated mathematics assessment were…

There is a compelling need to develop an algebra teacher self-efficacy instrument (ATSEI) as algebra continues to be considered a gatekeeper course for postsecondary educational and career opportunities, which is seen as a crucial piece in closing the achievement gap. This paper reports on the development and validation of the ATSEI, an instrument…

Miller, Angie L. – Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council, 2018
Over the past decade of my academic career, I have increasingly noticed the gap between K-12 gifted education and honors college education as my research has forced me to straddle the two areas. My doctoral education at Ball State University included a specialization in gifted studies, which was a natural fit with my own interests in creative…

Lance, Teresa – Journal of Educational Supervision, 2021
Educational professional development is ubiquitous; yet the gains on student learning are minimal as measured by local, state, and federal assessment measures. Although there is widespread agreement that assessment data alone does not tell the story of what students are learning and teachers are teaching, the data is still alarming. Why is there a…

To investigate patterns of gender-based performance gaps, we conducted a meta-analysis of published studies and unpublished data collected across 169 undergraduate biology and chemistry courses. While we did not detect an overall gender gap in performance, heterogeneity analyses suggested further analysis was warranted, so we investigated whether…

Condron, Dennis J.; Downey, Douglas B.; Kuhfeld, Megan – Sociology of Education, 2021
How does schooling affect inequality in students' academic skills? Studies comparing children's trajectories during summers and school years provide a provocative way of addressing this question, but the most persuasive seasonal studies (1) focus primarily on skill gaps between social categories (e.g., social class, race/ethnicity), which…

Rohm, Theresa; Carstensen, Claus H.; Fischer, Luise; Gnambs, Timo – Large-scale Assessments in Education, 2021
Background: After elementary school, students in Germany are separated into different school tracks (i.e., school types) with the aim of creating homogeneous student groups in secondary school. Consequently, the development of students' reading achievement diverges across school types. Findings on this achievement gap have been criticized as…

Hermann, Zoltán; Kopasz, Marianna – Research Papers in Education, 2021
Girls tend to outperform boys in reading tests, while they usually lag behind boys in mathematics. However, the size of the gender gap varies to a great extent between countries. While the existing literature explains these differences as being mainly due to cultural factors, this paper explores whether this cross-country variation is related to…

Lee, Sun Young – Curriculum Inquiry, 2021
This article explores the cultural practice of observation in teacher education, focusing on how teachers "learn to see" the differences between students. Conceptualizing "the visual" as a curricular problem that produces certain knowledge as in/valuable, I historicize the practice of scientific observation as embodying…
