Fielding, Jill; Makar, Katie – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2022
Conceptual challenge is often considered a necessary ingredient for promoting deep learning in an inquiry-based environment. However, challenge alone does not support conceptual development. In this paper, we draw on complexity theory as a theoretical lens to explore how a primary teacher facilitated students' conceptual change through repeated…

Chaput, J. Scott; Crack, Timothy Falcon; Onishchenko, Olena – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
How accurately can final-year students majoring in statistics, physics, and finance label the vertical axis of a normal distribution, explain their label, identify units, and answer a question about the impact of horizontal-axis rescaling? Our survey finds that only 27 out of 148 students surveyed (i.e., 18.2%) could label the vertical axis of the…
