Michiko Sakaki; Kou Murayama; Anne C. Frenzel; Thomas Goetz; Herbert W. Marsh; Stephanie Lichtenfeld; Reinhard Pekrun – Child Development, 2024
This study examined how adolescents' emotions in mathematics develop over time. Growth curve modeling was applied to longitudinal data collected annually from 2002 to 2006 (Grades 5-9; N = 3425 German adolescents; M[subscript age] = 11.7, 15.6 years at the first and last waves, respectively; 50.0% female). Results indicated that enjoyment and…

Alexander Jansson; Gunilla Brun Sundblad; Suzanne Lundvall; Johan R. Norberg – Sport, Education and Society, 2024
School grades are among the most common measurements used to analyze equality of outcome in education. Large or increasing 'gaps' in school grades between boys and girls and between students with different migration background are considered strong indicators of inequality. Based on students' school grades, several studies have shown that equality…

Mireia Brunet-Biarnes; Lluís Albarracín – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2024
Previous research has highlighted the importance of social relationships in mathematical group work while working on modelling activities. This study analyses the interaction of sixth-grade students in Primary Education (11 to 12 years old) carrying out a modelling task in groups with a Fermi problem used as the modelling activity. The focus of…

Monika Mladenovic; Žana Žanko; Goran Zaharija – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
The use of a pedagogical approach mediated transfer with the bridging method has been successful in facilitating the transitions from block-based to text-based programming languages. Nevertheless, there is a lack of research addressing the impact of this transfer on programming misconceptions during the transition. The way programming concepts are…

Andrea L. Beerwinkle; Chellie Nelson – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2024
This study analyzed the comprehension strategies and visuals in two science textbook series for grades 6, 7, and 8 as means of better understanding a core element of the ecological component of science literacy. The iScience [Biggs et al. in iScience (Grade 6), McGraw-Hill, 2015a, iScience (Grade 7), McGraw-Hill, 2015b, iScience (Grade 7),…

Amy C. Crosson; Richard Correnti; Lindsay Clare Matsumura; Margaret G. McKeown – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
We examined the effects of a text-based argument writing intervention, "Triple Q," on argument writing skills in a cluster-randomized trial where groups of middle schools were assigned to conditions within school-level SES blocks. The intervention comprised three 15-day units. Students read and discussed argument texts representing…

Emine Catman-Aksoy; Mine Isiksal-Bostan – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
This study investigated the effect of a paper folding activity prepared to develop the sixth-grade students' concept definitions and images of parallelism and perpendicularity concepts. The study also examined how the concept definition and images changed after the paper folding activity. A combination of quantitative and qualitative methods was…

Zixu Hu; Na Shan; Runkai Jiao – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Learning engagement is malleable to environmental change. An important learning environment created by teacher-student interactions is perceived teacher autonomy support, which may trigger learning engagement directly and/or indirectly by enhancing academic self-efficacy. In this study, we apply a network approach to explore the relationships…

Despina Desli; Panagiotis Dimitropoulos – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
The present study aimed to examine children's and adults' performance and strategies in volume estimations. Three tasks were designed and presented to 40 adults and 40 6th grade children who were asked to estimate: (a) the number of unit measures (bricks/rice spoons) that may be put in a container, (b) the quantity of bricks/rice, between two…

Alyssa Whitford; Caroline Sheffield; Timothy Lintner; Jeremiah Clabough – Social Studies, 2024
In this article, the authors discuss a month-long research study where sixth grade students researched three women for the half-century after the U.S. Civil War War that worked to change their respective communities to address public issues: Jane Addams, Clara Lemlich, and Ida B. Wells. The sixth graders read a picture book for each of the three…

Helena Johansson; Cecilia Kilhamn – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
Generalization is one of the core aspects of algebraic thinking, and research literature points to the importance of objectification when generalizing mathematical discourses. To increase the field's understanding of the objectification process in various algebra discourses, our study analyses Grade 6 teachers' use of words, symbols, routines and…

Sarah Halliday; Amanda Taylor; Deborah Turnbull; Tess Gregory – International Journal of Bullying Prevention, 2024
Despite the wealth of knowledge about the impact of bullying victimization, information gaps exist about how traditional and cyber bullying in early adolescence is associated with emotional wellbeing, namely, indicators of positive wellbeing. Therefore, this study investigated associations between different types of bullying victimization and…

Panorkou, Nicole; York, Toni; Germia, Erell – Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education, 2023
Instructional designs that include two or more artifacts (digital manipulatives, tables, graphs) have shown to support students' development of reasoning about covarying quantities. However, research often neglects how this development occurs from the student point of view during the interactions with these artifacts. An analysis from this lens…
