Pinger, Petra; Rakoczy, Katrin; Besser, Michael; Klieme, Eckhard – Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice, 2018
The aim of this study was to contribute to the understanding of the effectiveness of formative assessment interventions by analysing how the "quality of programme delivery" affects students' mathematics achievement and interest. Teachers (n = 17) implemented formative assessment in their ninth-grade mathematics classes and provided their…

Schukajlow, Stanislaw; Krug, André; Rakoczy, Katrin – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2015
Prompting students to construct multiple solutions for modelling problems with vague conditions has been found to be an effective way to improve students' performance on interest-oriented measures. In the current study, we investigated the influence of this teaching element on students' performance. To assess the impact of prompting multiple…

Rakoczy, Katrin; Harks, Birgit; Klieme, Eckhard; Blum, Werner; Hochweber, Jan – Learning and Instruction, 2013
Although feedback is a popular topic in educational research, the question of how and on what conditions feedback in mathematics affects learning seldom has been addressed. In this study, we investigated: (1) whether process-oriented feedback in mathematics leads to greater interest and higher achievement development compared to social-comparative…

Harks, Birgit; Rakoczy, Katrin; Hattie, John; Besser, Michael; Klieme, Eckhard – Educational Psychology, 2014
The impact of two types of written feedback (process-oriented, grade-oriented) on changes in mathematics achievement, interest and self-evaluation was compared -- with a particular focus on the mediating role of feedback's perceived usefulness. Participants, 146 ninth graders (aged 14 to 17?years), were assigned to either a process-oriented or a…

Buff, Alex; Reusser, Kurt; Rakoczy, Katrin; Pauli, Christine – Learning and Instruction, 2011
This study investigated students' activating positive affective experiences in mathematics lessons, their antecedents, their cognitive and motivational consequences, as well as their effect on achievement. The participants were 682 Grade 8 and 9 students from 37 classes from Germany and Switzerland who participated in a video study of lessons on…

Kistner, Saskia; Rakoczy, Katrin; Otto, Barbara; Dignath-van Ewijk, Charlotte; Buttner, Gerhard; Klieme, Eckhard – Metacognition and Learning, 2010
An implication of the current research on self-regulation is to implement the promotion of self-regulated learning in schools. Teachers can promote self-regulated learning either directly by teaching learning strategies or indirectly by arranging a learning environment that enables students to practice self-regulation. This study investigates…
