Rosen, Yigal – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2017
In order to understand potential applications of collaborative problem-solving (CPS) assessment tasks, it is necessary to examine empirically the multifaceted student performance that may be distributed across collaboration methods and purposes of the assessment. Ideally, each student should be matched with various types of group members and must…

Krippel, Misty Dawn; Burke, Meghan M.; Rios, Kristina – Early Child Development and Care, 2020
Although many young children face risk factors for academic failure, most research about family interventions do not focus on at-risk children. For example, although Parents Interacting with Infants Model (i.e. PIWI) and Baby TALK programmes are widely used family interventions, no empirical research has been conducted about PIWI or Baby TALK…

Nakawa, Nagisa; Kusaka, Satoshi; Kosaka, Masato; Watanabe, Koji; Baba, Takuya – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2020
One of the biggest challenges for primary school children is moving beyond the use of counting in calculation. The purpose of this study was to investigate how Zambian Grade 1 to Grade 4 children at primary school see a group of 10 as an effective pattern and structure with the given concrete material. The study consisted of three phases…

McFaul, Hugh; FitzGerald, Elizabeth – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
This paper provides a realist evaluation of the Open Justice virtual reality (VR) smartphone app, designed to develop presentation skills for students on an undergraduate legal education module. This work addresses two research questions: what proportion of students engaged with the Open Justice app, and what worked for whom in what circumstances…

Roob, Edward, III.; Bouscher, Robert F.; Kleinbaum, Ethan I.; Sederberg, David; Csathy, Gabor – Physics Teacher, 2020
We describe the design and manufacture of a classroom set of devices that simultaneously measures and records the resistivity of four conductive elements (superconductor, semiconductor, metal alloy, and pure metal) as a function of temperature. The unique nature of this multi-semester project was that these devices would be designed, machined and…

Flores, Margaret M.; Moore, Alexcia J.; Meyer, Jill M. – Psychology in the Schools, 2020
Elementary standards include multiplication of single-digit numbers and students advance to solve complex problems and demonstrate procedural fluency in algorithms. The ability to illustrate procedural fluency in algorithms is dependent on the development of understanding and reasoning in multiplication. Development of multiplicative reasoning…

Sokolowski, Andrzej – Physics Education, 2021
Analysing graphs, formulating covariational relationships, and hypothesizing systems' behaviour have emerged as frequent objectives of contemporary research in physics education. As such, these studies aim to help students achieve these objectives. While a consensus has been reached on the cognitive benefits of emphasizing the structural domain of…

Buxton, Patricia S. – Journal of Research in Education, 2021
The abundance of student records housed in K-12 schools across the country represents a largely untapped resource in the study of behavioral phenomena among children. Careful review of these existing records affords educational researchers an alternative to the heavily used survey method of data collection. While record review studies are common…

Gervasoni, Ann; Giumelli, Kerry; Flanagan, Linda; Downton, Ann; Roche, Anne; Wallis, Owen – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2023
Typically, more primary students qualify for mathematics intervention support than schools have the capacity to assist. This highlights the importance of every primary mathematics teacher having the expertise to design inclusive and responsive curricula and instruction for students who may experience difficulty. Our study addresses this issue…
