I. Corbacho-Cuello; A. Núñez-Flores; M. A. Hernández-Barco; A. Muñoz-Losa – Environmental Education Research, 2025
This study explored and compared attitudes toward animals between primary school students and primary school prospective teachers, focusing on educational and cognitive influences. A cross-sectional survey of 100 primary school students and 102 primary school prospective teachers assessed animal behavior, animal attitudes, species conservation…

Kolinsky, Régine; Tossonian, Méghane – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2023
The aim of the present study was to examine the hypothesis that, compared to typically reading children matched on regular word reading, adults with basic literacy (either adult literacy students or adult basic education students) struggle on phonologically demanding tasks but are relatively performant on orthographic demanding tasks, and hence…

Boggio, Cynthia; Bosse, Marie-Line; Favre-Félix, Alexis; Pobel-Burtin, Céline; Burnel, Morgane; Bianco, Maryse – Journal of Educational Research, 2023
Learning to spell is a difficult but essential task for children learning to read. Several spelling tasks involving different cognitive demands are used in classroom. To provide better guidance for teaching practices, a critical question is whether spelling performance of beginner readers is task dependent. The present study focuses on the…

Kaiwen Man; Joni M. Lakin – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2024
Eye-tracking procedures generate copious process data that could be valuable in establishing the response processes component of modern validity theory. However, there is a lack of tools for assessing and visualizing response processes using process data such as eye-tracking fixation sequences, especially those suitable for young children. This…

Jingjing Ma; Qingtang Liu; Shufan Yu; Jindian Liu; Xiaojuan Li; Chunhua Wang – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2025
This research employs the fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) method to investigate the configurations of multiple factors influencing scientific concept learning, including augmented reality (AR) technology, the concept map (CM) strategy and individual differences (eg, prior knowledge, experience and attitudes). A quasi-experiment…

Beege, Maik; Nebel, Steve; Schneider, Sascha; Rey, Günter Daniel – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2023
The application of 360° videos raised the attention of educators and researchers, as it appears to be an approachable option to mediate complete environments in educational settings. However, challenges emerge from the perspective of educational psychology. Learning irrelevant cognitive strains might be imposed because it is necessary to navigate…

Bruna Rodrigues; Irene Cadime; Iolanda Ribeiro – Australian Journal of Learning Difficulties, 2023
Empirical research has shown that poor comprehenders use reading strategies less frequently than good comprehenders. Moreover, poor comprehenders tend to use simple strategies (e.g. slowing down reading when the text is hard to understand) instead of using more complex strategies (e.g. choosing between main and trivial information). The present…

Roy, George J.; Harbour, Kristin E.; Martin, Christie; Cunningham, Matthew – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2022
One way to emphasize students' strengths when reasoning verbally is through number talks. During a number talk, a teacher facilitates a 5- to 15-minute conversation during which students have the opportunity to engage in mental mathematics and verbally explain and justify their reasoning regarding how they make sense of numerical computations.…

Ünal Çakiroglu – Learning: Research and Practice, 2024
This quasi-experimental study aims to compare the effects of using combinations of written text, animation and narration in multimedia courseware. 114 sixth grade students assigned in three conditions were participated in the study. Three versions of the courseware with combinations of animation, text and narration were developed taking modality…

Kang, Tinghu; Tang, Tinghao; Zhang, Peizhi; Luo, Shu; Qi, Huanhuan – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
Background: The ability to translate concrete manipulatives into abstract mathematical formulas can aid in the solving of mathematical word problems among students, and metacognitive prompts play a significant role in enhancing this process. Aims: Based on the concept of semantic congruence, we explored the effects of metacognitive prompts and…

Melody García-Moya; Rocío Blanco – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2024
Mathematical problem-solving is a core content of primary school education. Therefore, it is necessary to provide all students with a meaningful way of acquisition of problem-solving skills. The objective of this research was to verify the effectiveness of a problem-solving routine based on the Pólya's model and the use of cognitive strategies…

Demetriou, Helen; Nicholl, Bill – Improving Schools, 2022
According to the age-old proverb from Plato's "Republic: necessity is the mother of invention," the main motivation for creating new discoveries is the need for them. However, as well as the necessity factor, we argue that a very important aspect that influences invention and creativity is the "empathy factor." This mixed…

Sue, Chee Hao; Thang, Siew Ming; Wong, Hoo Keat; Tan, Jennifer Poh Sim; Loo, Fung Lan; Ahju, Rosalind – International Journal of Computer-Assisted Language Learning and Teaching, 2022
Many studies have been conducted on the development of young children; however, not many have explored the cognitive processes of prereaders. The eye-tracker has been used with success to investigate the cognitive processes of young children abroad, but such studies are lacking in Malaysia. This study used an experimental procedure created with…

Wu, Chao-Jung; Liu, Chia-Yu; Yang, Chung-Hsuan; Jian, Yu-Cin – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2021
Despite decades of research on the close link between eye movements and human cognitive processes, the exact nature of the link between eye movements and deliberative thinking in problem-solving remains unknown. Thus, this study explored the critical eye-movement indicators of deliberative thinking and investigated whether visual behaviors could…
