Rutherford, Teomara; Duck, Kerry; Rosenberg, Joshua M.; Patt, Raymond – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2022
School closures during the COVID-19 pandemic presented a threat to student learning and motivation. Suspension of achievement testing created a barrier to understanding the extent of this threat. Leveraging data from a mathematics learning software as a substitute assessment, we found that students had lower engagement with the software during the…

Rutherford, Teomara; Liu, Allison S.; Lam, Arena S.; Schenke, Katerina – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2020
Self-beliefs are important determinants of student choice and success (Wigfield & Eccles, 2000) and are informed by student educational experiences, such as prior success with a task (Bandura, 1986). The potential for Computer-Based Interventions as self-belief-supporting learning environments is examined in this study, focusing on the…

Michael Mendicino; Leena Razzaq; Neil T. Heffernan – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2009
This study compared learning for fifth grade students in two math homework conditions. The paper-and-pencil condition represented traditional homework, with review of problems in class the following day. The Web-based homework condition provided immediate feedback in the form of hints on demand and step-by-step scaffolding. We analyzed the results…

Valanides, Nicos; Angeli, Charoula – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2008
In this study, we discuss the scaffolded design of ODRES (Observe, Discuss, and Reason with Evidence in Science), a computer tool that was designed to be used with elementary school children in science, and report on the effects of learning with ODRES on students' conceptual understandings about light, color, and vision. Succinctly, dyads of…
