Maryam Zolfaghari; Karl Kosko; Christine Austin – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2024
Mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT) is a professional knowledge crucial for effective mathematics instruction, encompassing both content knowledge (CK) and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK). The purpose of this study is to investigate the hierarchical structure of PCK for fractions by seeking further evidence for the PCK-Fractions…

Amelia Baldwin – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This quantitative, correlational study aimed to investigate the relationships between collective teacher efficacy (CTE), its enabling conditions (EC-CTE), and student achievement in third through eighth grades in Colorado. Leveraging the theoretical foundations established by Rotter (1954), Bandura (1977) and expanded by Tschannen-Moran et al.…

Xu, Jiajun; Dadey, Nathan – Applied Measurement in Education, 2022
This paper explores how student performance across the full set of multiple modular assessments of individual standards, which we refer to as mini-assessments, from a large scale, operational program of interim assessment can be summarized using Bayesian networks. We follow a completely data-driven approach in which no constraints are imposed to…

Gabrielle S. Jones – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Mobile and other internet-connected devices infiltrate society, including K-12 classrooms. A large body of research indicated that these devices might distract students; however, other studies have revealed many benefits when the devices are used for educational purposes. This study aimed to examine the relationships between the use of mobile…

Márió Tibor Nagy; Erzsébet Korom – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2023
Nowadays, the assessment of student performance has become increasingly technology-based, a trend that can also be observed in the evaluation of scientific reasoning, with more and more of the formerly paper-based assessment tools moving into the digital space. The study aimed to examine the reliability and validity of the paper-based and…

J. Anthony, Christopher; Styck, Kara M.; Cooke, Erin; Martel, Justin R.; E. Frye, Katherine – School Psychology Review, 2022
Behavior rating scales represent one of the most commonly used types of assessments in school psychology. Yet, they suffer from a fundamental limitation: They are an indirect methodology influenced partially by student behavior and partially by rater perspectives. Thus, the current study utilized advanced analytic approaches to evaluate rater…

Gültekin, Sevim Burçin; Altun, Taner – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2022
The purpose of this research is to examine the impact of activities based on scientific process skills on problem-solving skills of 4th grade students in science lessons. In the study a non-equivalent control group pre-test and post-test design type of quasi-experimental method was used. The research study group was composed of 30 students with 15…

Hui, Wan Ying; Brown, Ted; Yu, Mong-Lin; Lyons, Carissa – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2022
Handwriting is an important daily occupation for children. When assessing children's handwriting, it is recommended that clinicians use objective handwriting performance tests as well as solicit children's and parents' perspectives to promote client-centered practice. However, it remains unknown to what extent objective handwriting performance…

Steinmann, Isa; Sánchez, Daniel; van Laar, Saskia; Braeken, Johan – Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice, 2022
Questionnaire scales that are mixed-worded, i.e. include both positively and negatively worded items, often suffer from issues like low reliability and more complex latent structures than intended. Part of the problem might be that some responders fail to respond consistently to the mixed-worded items. We investigated the prevalence and impact of…

Wells, Craig S.; Sireci, Stephen G. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2020
Student growth percentiles (SGPs) are currently used by several states and school districts to provide information about individual students as well as to evaluate teachers, schools, and school districts. For SGPs to be defensible for these purposes, they should be reliable. In this study, we examine the amount of systematic and random error in…

Bulut, Okan; Bulut, Hatice Cigdem; Cormier, Damien C.; Ilgun Dibek, Munevver; Sahin Kursad, Merve – Educational Assessment, 2023
Some statewide testing programs allow students to receive corrective feedback and revise their answers during testing. Despite its pedagogical benefits, the effects of providing revision opportunities remain unknown in the context of alternate assessments. Therefore, this study examined student data from a large-scale alternate assessment that…

Vanderheyden, Amanda M.; Solomon, Benjamin G. – School Psychology, 2023
Curriculum-based measurement (CBM) has conventionally included accuracy criteria with recommended fluency thresholds for instructional decision-making. Some scholars have argued for the use of accuracy to directly determine instructional need (e.g., Szadokierski et al., 2017). However, accuracy and fluency have not been directly examined to…

Horsley, Nicole – ProQuest LLC, 2023
In 2022, 8% of all 4th grade black or African American students in Wisconsin scored proficient or advanced in reading on the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP, 2023). As disparities in achievement are perpetuated across the state of Wisconsin as well as the nation, it is becoming increasingly important for elementary principals to…
