Anna Cartwright; Edward Cartwright – Journal of Economic Education, 2024
In this article, the authors analyze data accumulated over 10+ years of teaching market interaction using a simple classroom experiment. The experiment is designed to teach first-year undergraduate students the basics of supply and demand and market efficiency. In total, they analyze data from 85 teaching sessions and 243 individual markets. They…

Zhi-Han, Yang; Zhang, Shiyue; Rafferty, Anna N. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2022
Online educational technologies facilitate pedagogical experimentation, but typical experimental designs assign a fixed proportion of students to each condition, even if early results suggest some are ineffective. Experimental designs using multi-armed bandit (MAB) algorithms vary the probability of condition assignment for a new student based on…

Bibek Dahal – Journal of Academic Ethics, 2024
Ethics in research can be broadly divided into two epistemic dimensions. One dimension focuses on bureaucratic procedures (i.e., procedural ethics), while the other focuses on contextually and culturally contested practice of ethics in research (i.e., ethics in practice). Researchers experience both dimensions distinctly in their qualitative…

Paul T. von Hippel – Education Next, 2024
In a 1984 essay, Benjamin Bloom, an educational psychologist at the University of Chicago, asserted that tutoring offered "the best learning conditions we can devise" and that tutors could raise student achievement by two full standard deviations--or, in statistical parlance, two "sigmas." The influence of Bloom's two-sigma…

Atwood, Alicia; Emerson, Tisha L. N.; Knox, Melissa A.; Taznin, Mahjuja M. – Journal of Economic Education, 2023
The use of experiments in the undergraduate economics classroom has been shown to have pedagogical value in increasing student learning and engagement, but the startup costs of adopting classroom experiments can be high for instructors. This article serves as a guide to adoption for the first-time user of computerized (online) classroom…

Karen Zwanch; Brooke Mullins – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2025
To understand the ways that manipulatives might support changes in students' reasoning about algebraic generalizations, a constructivist teaching experiment was conducted with two sixth-grade students. The students interpreted numerical situations with units of one and could construct units of units in mental activity. Initially, the students'…

Sumalatha Peddi; Jacob R. Franklin; C. Scott Hartley – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Chemical reactions that mimic the function of ATP hydrolysis in biochemistry are of current interest in nonequilibrium systems chemistry. The formation of transient bonds from these reactions can drive molecular machines or generate materials with time-dependent properties. While the behavior of these systems can be complicated, the underlying…

Tirpáková, Anna; Gonda, Dalibor; Wiegerová, Adriana; Navrátilová, Hana – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2023
The presented article is dedicated to a new way of teaching substitution in algebra. In order to effectively master the subject matter, it is necessary for students to perceive the equal sign equivalently, to learn to manipulate expressions as objects, and to perceive and use transformations based on defining their own equivalences. According to…

Bogdán, Péter – Acta Educationis Generalis, 2023
Introduction: The Roma Mentor Project has originally been the experimental educational model of Open Society Institute for multiply disadvantaged Roma and non-Roma youth in the period 2006-2013. Following the closure of OSI's experimental and alternative educational projects, it has been run further, during the 2016/17 academic year, with the…

Wendy Chan; Larry Vernon Hedges – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2022
Multisite field experiments using the (generalized) randomized block design that assign treatments to individuals within sites are common in education and the social sciences. Under this design, there are two possible estimands of interest and they differ based on whether sites or blocks have fixed or random effects. When the average treatment…

Anthony K. Brandt – Creativity Research Journal, 2024
Works of art have value not only as entertainment and aesthetic expression -- they also externalize features of human cognition that would often otherwise remain hidden. A musical example from the 19th century is a striking case in point. In 1819, Austrian music publisher, editor, and composer Anton Diabelli invited fifty-one of Austria's most…

Jared N. Schachner; Ann Owens; Gary D. Painter – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2024
A digital information explosion has transformed cities' residential and educational markets in ways that are still being uncovered. Although urban stratification scholars have increasingly scrutinized whether emerging digital platforms disrupt or reproduce longstanding segregation patterns, direct links between one theoretically important form of…

Dyah Setyaningrum Winarni; Afis Pratama; Aditya Marianti; Muhammad Badrus Siroj – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2024
This study aimed to determine the effect of using a virtual anatomy system (VAS) on student learning with regard to reproductive system with respect to the acquisition of misconceptions. This study used an experimental method by comparing the results of the class learning using virtual laboratory media with a control class. The result showed that…

Anne Bertin-Renoux – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2025
This study explores the ways in which embodied creativity is conceived and implemented in french schools through the study of a corpus of professional articles published since the 1960s in a journal dedicated to physical education. The analysis focuses on pedagogical experiments to foster bodily creativity carried out in primary schools, as part…

Eacott, Scott – International Journal of Educational Management, 2023
Purpose: Steiner schools represent a natural experiment in the provision of schooling. With a history dating back more than 100 years, leadership, leaders and the principal do not sit easily with Steiner educators. The contemporary regulatory environment requires a "principal" or legal authority at the school-building level, creating a…
