Most studies on technology integration in mathematics education are focused on teachers' perceptions or students' academic achievement. However, it is necessary to learn how students perceive their learning in this environment. This basic qualitative study focuses on students' experiences with 1:1 computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL)…

In high school geometry, proving theorems and applying them to geometry problems is an expectation for students. An essential part of most geometry proofs is the diagram because it not only helps encapsulate the claim being proved but can also be a tool in reasoning or communicating an argument. This interview-based study investigated how high…

Cognitive Independence (CI), which physical education has a high potential for fostering in students, is characterized by a developed set of cognitive skills, an ideal level of knowledge, a strong value attitude towards cognition, and competencies related to the ability and willingness to take the initiative and engage in professionally…

Cosmology concepts encompass complex spatial and temporal relations that are counterintuitive. Cosmology findings, because of their intrinsic interest, are often reported in the public domain with enthusiasm, and students come to cosmology with a range of conceptions some aligned and some at variance with the current science. This makes cosmology…

For ethnoracially minoritized and immigrant youth, identity formation involves efforts to integrate social identities that are derived from their ethnic-racial group memberships (i.e., ethnic-racial identity) and their connection to the country in which they reside (i.e., national identity). This study investigated the extent to which these two…

Background: Students' social emotional competencies (SECs; also known as non-cognitive skills) are the skills or knowledge that allow them to successfully navigate social and academic environments such as self-management, social awareness, and relationship skills. Research has established cross-sectional associations between SECs and student…

The purpose of this study was to observe how within-person variation in motivation, self-efficacy and academic performance scores are correlated or can be predicted. The reciprocal association between these variables was analysed through a four-wave longitudinal study and a within-person analytical approach (random intercept cross-lagged panel…

Purpose and Method of Study: This study aimed to determine variables or combinations of variables that impact the hope levels of tenth- to twelfth-grade students at a large urban public school in Oklahoma. While many factors influence students' hope, there is little information about the impact of HAE and PSC, in addition to the variables grade…

We present an example of a novel, model-based approach to instruction in which learners constructed a representation of a specific phenomenon, evaluated their representation, and then revised it, via an abstraction process, to construct a model. The example took place in high school in the context of solution chemistry. The aim of the instruction…

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) based anger management psychoeducation program on the anger management skills of high school students. While the independent variable of the study is the anger management psychoeducation program based on CBT, the dependent variable is the trait anger level,…

Accurate assessment of saliva sampling time is essential for studies that collect cortisol sample in ambulatory settings. This study examined the sampling time assessed by user-submitted photos via a mobile application (ZEMI) compared with MEMSCaps™. Intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) of the time differences between when the 16 adolescents…

The purpose of this research is to determine the scientific literacy levels of students in 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grades of high school by using the scientific literacy research test. In the study, it was investigated whether there is a significant difference in scientific literacy among students studying at different levels in secondary…

The positive relationship between students' attitudes toward mathematics and mathematics achievement is well documented. Yet there is a worsening problem of low appeal of mathematics especially at the secondary level. Therefore, in this paper we focus on three high school students who report a strong dislike of mathematics. By analyzing student…

This paper describes the nature of home-school value discrepancies perceived by students, and tests associations between such value discrepancies and teacher-student relationships with student generational status as a moderator. Using a sample of 1,551 students from grades 10 and 11, chi-square tests and ANOVAs were used to describe the nature of…

This research is about developing stochastic worldview formation among high school students (grades 10 and 11) based on integrating scientific approaches, namely, information and technology, interdisciplinary, system, and activity approaches. Developing the structural components of a stochastic worldview, such as motivation--value relations,…
