Parker, Laura E. – ProQuest LLC, 2023
During the COVID-19 pandemic, many Texas students stayed home and learned virtually for portions or the entirety of the 2020-2021 school year. TEA (2021b) reports indicated virtual learners scored lower than students who returned face-to-face on many assessments. Research question one asked what are the perceived factors that affected 8th-grade…

Moru, Eunice Kolitsoe; Mathunya, Motlatsi – Journal of Research and Advances in Mathematics Education, 2022
Algebra is an important branch of mathematics which applies to many fields related to mathematics. However, many studies show algebra as posing problems even to the most gifted students. This phenomenon, therefore, necessitates more studies to be conducted in this area. As such, the study explored the types of errors that Grade 8 learners…

Gillian E. Mertens – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2024
During crisis contexts, information is both critical for user's decision making and simultaneously challenging to evaluate. When online information's credibility is ambiguous, young learners are challenged to evaluate rapidly evolving online information. This study sought to explore how 8th-grade students evaluated an ambiguously credible Tweet…
