Fredrik Svensson – Dialogic Pedagogy, 2024
Postcolonial critics Paulo Freire (1921-1997) and Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak (1942-) have both made attempts at offering pedagogical formulas that take into account the student's experiences in order to oust oppressive tendencies from the classroom, and at first glance, many of their ideas seem close to identical: Freire speaks dismissively of…

Mark Abdelshiheed; Tiffany Barnes; Min Chi – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2024
Two metacognitive knowledge types in deductive domains are procedural and conditional. This work presents a preliminary study on the impact of metacognitive knowledge and motivation on transfer across two Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs), then two experiments on metacognitive knowledge instruction. Throughout this work, we trained students on a…

Stéphanie Chouteau; Benoît Lemaire; Catherine Thevenot; Jasinta Dewi; Karine Mazens – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2024
It is commonly accepted that repeatedly using mental procedures results in a transition to memory retrieval, but the determinant of this process is still unclear. In a 3-week experiment, we compared two different learning situations involving basic additions, one based on counting and the other based on arithmetic fact memorization. Two groups of…

Prezioso, M. G. – English in Education, 2023
In light of recent concerns in the United States and the United Kingdom regarding the rote and restrictive nature of English literature instruction, this article offers an approach to teaching literature rooted not in knowledge, as literary pedagogy is often conceptualised, but instead in understanding. Reading for understanding extends beyond…

Gencev, Marian; Šalounová, Dana – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
The aim of this paper is to present a teaching proposal for the theoretical part relating to the first- and second-order linear difference equations with constant coefficients suitable for the first-year students at various types of universities. In contradistinction to the methods often applied (memorization of algorithms without a proper…

Brian Darrow Jr. – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2023
Arithmetic was the first mathematical subject to enter the school curriculum in the United States in a formalized manner. Until the first quarter of the nineteenth century, the prevailing pedagogy of this subject revolved around the tenets of mental discipline theory and the rules method of teaching, which valued memorization and repetitive drill…

Gürses, Ahmet; Sahin, Elif; Barin, T. Barkin; Günes, Kübra – Education Quarterly Reviews, 2022
Analogies can be powerful teaching tools because they can make new material intelligible to students by comparing it to material that is already familiar. In assisting students to understand chemistry concepts, teachers occasionally use analogies. These analogies are believed to help the students to structure the new knowledge and they are…

Zeycan Kama; Mine Isiksal Bostan; Zelha Tunç Pekkan – Journal of Pedagogical Research, 2023
This study investigates sixth-grade Turkish students' pattern-generalization approaches among arithmetical generalization, algebraic generalization, and naïve induction. A qualitative case study design was employed. The data was collected from four sixth-grade students through the Pattern Questionnaire (PQ) and individual interviews based on the…

Karagöz, Savas – International Journal of Contemporary Educational Research, 2021
From the perspective of Turkish education history, it can be said that the teaching methods applied in the educational institutions of the Ottoman Empire had deductive characteristics. The application of the deductive method was carried out in various forms including memorization, repetition, comprehension, discussion and note taking. Since the…

Ilona Bass; Cristian Espinoza; Elizabeth Bonawitz; Tomer D. Ullman – Cognitive Science, 2024
When people make decisions, they act in a way that is either automatic ("rote"), or more thoughtful ("reflective"). But do people notice when "others" are behaving in a rote way, and do they care? We examine the detection of rote behavior and its consequences in U.S. adults, focusing specifically on pedagogy and…

Scaramanga, Jenna; Reiss, Michael J. – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2023
There has been little consideration in the science education literature of schools or curricula that advocate creationism. Accelerated Christian Education (ACE) is among the world's largest providers of creationist science materials with a curriculum divided into a system of workbooks which students complete at their own speed. This article…

Cassandra P. Lilly; Alexandra B. Ormond; Andrea A. Carter; Walda J. Powell – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Primarily undergraduate institutions have limited resources to offer required, credit based supplemental instruction for students. Meredith College's Chemistry, Physics, and Geoscience Department revised the laboratory chemistry curriculum to incorporate chemistry concept recitations into the lab course schedule. Activities for the following…

Winston N. Martey – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Logarithms, pivotal in advanced mathematics and real-world applications, often present challenges to students who resort to rote memorization without grasping their essence. While the emotional dimensions of learning mathematics are increasingly recognized, research in this area remains limited. This dissertation addresses this gap by examining a…

Qaisar Khan; Sadia Ashraf – Bulletin of Education and Research, 2023
Assessment methods have more effects on the strategy of study; if an exam requires the recall of factual information, then students adopt the surface-level approach or rote learning (Newble & Jaeger, 1983). Measuring the learning outcomes of students is paramount for learning and teaching improvement. However, in the Pakistani education…
