Ying-Chih Chen; Michelle Jordan; Jongchan Park; Emily Starrett – Science Education, 2024
An essential aspect of scientific practice involves grappling with the generation of predictions, representations, interpretations, investigations, and communications related to scientific phenomena, all of which are inherently permeated with uncertainty. Transferring this practice from expert settings to the classroom is invaluable yet…

Andrey Vyshedskiy; Rohan Venkatesh; Edward Khokhlovich; Deniz Satik – npj Science of Learning, 2024
Analysis of linguistic abilities that are concurrently impaired in individuals with language deficits allows identification of a shared underlying mechanism. If any two linguistic abilities are mediated by the same underlying mechanism, then both abilities will be absent if this mechanism is broken. Clustering techniques automatically arrange…

Brooke Gildea – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Education has always been and will continue to be the key that unlocks doors of opportunity and success for all. Our national test scores, over the last several decades, reveal that a majority of America's students are failing to meet academic benchmarks and standards, thus limiting the possibilities for opportunity. Mathematics, in particular,…

Kaldaras, Leonora; Wieman, Carl – International Journal of STEM Education, 2023
Background: Blended mathematical sensemaking in science ("Math-Sci sensemaking") involves deep conceptual understanding of quantitative relationships describing scientific phenomena and has been studied in various disciplines. However, no unified characterization of blended Math-Sci sensemaking exists. Results: We developed a theoretical…

Chen, Xuqian; Wei, Ziqian; Li, Ziteng; Clariana, Roy B. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2023
How does conceptual structure of external representations contribute to learning? This investigation considered the influence of generative concept sorting and of external structure information moderated by perceived difficulty. In Study 1, undergraduate students completed a perceived difficulty survey and comprehension pretest, then a sorting…

Nagle, Charlie L.; Huensch, Amanda; Zárate-Sández, Germán – Modern Language Journal, 2023
Although current approaches to second language (L2) pronunciation underscore that instruction should concentrate on pronunciation features that help learners be more intelligible (and not necessarily more native like), there is little empirical evidence as to what those features are, especially in languages other than English. To address this gap,…

Adam A. Ahlers; Traci Brimhall – Natural Sciences Education, 2023
Undergraduate students enrolled in ecology courses read peer-reviewed, scientific literature to learn how hypotheses are tested and to understand conclusions from research. This technical material can be difficult to understand for many students, thus inhibiting learning processes and reducing interest in courses or associated content. Using…

Tom Bielik; Ibrahim Delen; Moritz Krell; Orit Ben Zvi Assaraf – Journal for STEM Education Research, 2023
Understanding complex systems is important in science and has become a prominent aspect of STEM education in recent years. System thinking plays a critical role, focusing on system attributes such as interactions between components, emerging phenomena and hierarchical organisation. In this study, we provide a network analysis of bibliometric…
