Roman Abel; Anique de Bruin; Erdem Onan; Julian Roelle – Educational Psychology Review, 2024
Distinguishing easily confusable categories requires learners to detect their predictive differences. Interleaved sequences -- switching between categories -- help learners to detect such differences. Nonetheless, learners prefer to block -- switching within a category -- to detect commonalities. Across two 2 × 2-factorial experiments, we…

Jinnie Shin; Bowen Wang; Wallace N. Pinto Junior; Mark J. Gierl – Large-scale Assessments in Education, 2024
The benefits of incorporating process information in a large-scale assessment with the complex micro-level evidence from the examinees (i.e., process log data) are well documented in the research across large-scale assessments and learning analytics. This study introduces a deep-learning-based approach to predictive modeling of the examinee's…

Constantinos Xenofontos – Journal of Pedagogy, 2024
This paper explores magical realism as a theoretical lens for analysing mathematics classrooms. Traditional frameworks often overlook the complexities of teaching and learning, focusing solely on measurable aspects. Inspired by magical realism -- a literary genre blending the fantastical and the everyday -- I propose a new perspective on how…

Priyanshu Sharma – Online Submission, 2024
Traditional mathematics instruction often fails to address the diverse learning needs of students, leading to frustration and disengagement. This study proposes personalized learning, emphasizing sequential learning, diagnostic assessments, and technology to tailor instruction. This research examines the potential of personalized learning to…

David Banzer; Jeremy Riel; Kathleen M. Sheridan – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2024
This design case presents the conceptualization, design, and development of Early Science Matters (ESM), an online teacher professional development (oTPD) program for early childhood teachers. The program design consisted of five primary features that were expected to promote participant learning, including (1) visually oriented content, (2)…

Ishihara, Makio; Rattanachinalai, Pongpun – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
This paper designs and develops a computer programming learning system for total beginners and those who have no programming experience. The traditional computer programming learning systems require prior knowledge about variables, their types, operators for arithmetic calculations and relational calculations etc., for adopting a wide range of…

Long, Christopher S.; Fraser, Barry J.; Sinclair, Becky – Learning Environments Research, 2020
For a sample of 367 middle-school students in the USA, learning environment criteria were used to evaluate two alternative science curriculum sequences (generalised/integrated and topic-based) and to investigate the differential effectiveness of the alternative sequences for two different ethnic groups (Caucasian and Hispanic). The six scales used…

Thomas, Glyn J. – Journal of Adventure Education and Outdoor Learning, 2019
This paper aims to contribute to on-going discussion about the teaching and learning strategies used in effective outdoor education programmes. A naturalistic inquiry was conducted with two schools that participated in 28-day outdoor education programmes facilitated by the same outdoor provider in Australia. Data were collected through five…

Thoms, Michael – ProQuest LLC, 2018
In this study I explore the construction of algebraic structure sense through engaging students in task sequences designed to elicit the development of competencies related to this understanding. The primary task-design principle employed in this study is strategic variation, in which certain components of items within task sequences vary while…

Parker, Walter C. – Social Education, 2018
When projects are the spine of a course, they are systematically sequenced one after the other, and they do the heavy lifting of the course. They teach its core content and skills. The author has been testing this model of course design for several years, aiming for experiential learning that is tied to deep rather than superficial learning of…

Amy Jean Konyn – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Natural language is highly complex and can be challenging for some learners, yet the contribution of complexity to individual differences in language learning remains poorly understood. This poor understanding appears due to both a lack of consensus among researchers regarding what complexity is, and to on-line language research often employing…

Hall Pistorio, Kalynn; Brady, Michael P.; Morris, Cindy – Early Child Development and Care, 2019
Many young children receive developmental screenings because they do not perform basic self-regulation skills needed in preschool and home environments. Previous research on Literacy-Based Behavioural Interventions (LBBI) shows promise for promoting acquisition and maintenance of skills and routines; however, research has not yet examined the…

Cramer, Kenneth M.; Sands, Mandy – Journal of College Student Retention: Research, Theory & Practice, 2016
As in most disciplines, the typical introductory class presents topics to students in a linear fashion, beginning (to use psychology as an example) with the history of the field, research methods, brain and neurons, sensation and perception, and so on. This study examined the impact of topic sequence on student achievement. The same professor…

McMartin, Kimberley; McMaster, Heather – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2016
As an alternative to looking solely at linear functions, a three-lesson learning progression developed for Year 6 students that incorporates triangular numbers to develop children's algebraic thinking is described and evaluated.

Newhouse, Christopher Paul; Cooper, Martin; Cordery, Zina – Australian Educational Computing, 2017
This paper reports on a study that investigated the ways that young children interact with discrete programmable digital toys in a free play setting. One intention was to see whether this interaction would address some of the requirements of the Digital Technologies subject in the Australian Curriculum. The study was implemented in two phases in…
