Thomas, Margaret; Clarke, Doug M.; McDonough, Andrea; Clarkson, Philip C. – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2023
Time is an important but complex area of learning for students in the primary years. This study sought to develop a tool which would provide a clear picture of students' understanding of what constitutes time and how time is related to clock and calendar use. Four major components of time, Awareness of time, Succession, Duration, and Measurement…

Mulhamah; Purwanto; Susiswo; Tjang Daniel Chandra – Pegem Journal of Education and Instruction, 2023
The concept of fractions given in learning is the concept of part of whole and part of unit. The development of student's concepts of fractions can be built through fraction schemes. A partitive fraction scheme is a scheme that estimates the size of the fraction in the form of non-units to the whole that is not partitioned. The concept of…

Due to the learning paradox, students cannot have real difficulty in understanding a mathematical concept that they have not yet understood. There is a gap between real difficulties, directly experienced by students, and illusionary ones, only observed by researchers. This paper aims to offer a critical reflection on our understanding of the term…

Soo-min Lim; Hyunju Chun; Hyonyong Lee; Youngshin Kim – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2024
An important educational goal is enabling students to learn scientific concepts. The scientific concepts learned in class are developed within students' cognitive structures. Despite the successful application of Semantic Network Analysis (SNA) to study these cognitive structures, there has been limited examination of students' concept networks…

Reader, Tracey; Larkin, Kevin; Grootenboer, Peter – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2023
This conceptual paper discusses two frameworks, developed independently by the lead author, that will provide the conceptual foundation for the identification and evaluation of mental computation strategies students demonstrate during an upcoming research project entitled Mental Computation in Year 5. These frameworks will be used by the lead…

Kym Fry; Lyn English; Katie Makar – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2024
The teaching and learning of statistical thinking begins at a young age in Australia, with a focus on data representation and interpretation from Foundation Year (age 5), and the collection, sorting and categorising of items from the natural environment starting even earlier. The intangible concept of "data," as part of statistical…

Schut, Alice; Klapwijk, Remke; Gielen, Mathieu; van Doorn, Fenne; de Vries, Marc – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2020
In this paper, we explore the early indicators of design fixation occurring during the concept development stage of children's design processes. This type of fixation, which we named: "concept fixation," causes a blind adherence to the current (possibly unfavourable) state of a design idea. Its occurrence hampers the creative thinking…

Fatma Agacdiken; Rezan Yilmaz – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2023
This research aims to investigate the construction of the area of rectangle with GeoGebra and how students can formulate it. It focuses on describing the cognitive process involved in constructing this concept and how technology mediates such a process. The research was conducted in a classroom with 5th grade students in a secondary school and was…

Trahorsch, Petr; Bláha, Jan Daniel – Journal of Geography, 2022
The aim of the presented study is to evaluate the influence of the quality of visuals in printed geography textbooks on the character of children's conceptions using the example of the geographical location concept. Visuals are a graphical representation of a certain phenomenon. A two-tier diagnostic test without and with three types of high and…

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…

Structural reasoning is a combined ability to "look for structures, recognize structures, probe into structures, act upon structures, reason in terms of general structures, and see how a piece of knowledge acquired resolves a perturbation experienced" (Harel and Soto, 2017). The purpose of this study was to explore the cognitive…

Sukiyanto; Nusantara, Toto; Sudirman; Sulandra, I Made – Pegem Journal of Education and Instruction, 2022
A mental model is a concept that exists in students' minds and is used to describe and explain a phenomenon. This study aims to describe the transition-attempting mental model of students in understanding the concept of integers. This study uses a qualitative approach and the type of research conducted is descriptive. The subjects of this study…

Pan, Yue-Juan; Liu, Shan-Shan; Wang, Yu; Wu, Ni-Wen; Xie, Shuang – Early Education and Development, 2023
Research Findings: The present study analyzes whether child factors are linked to variations in teacher cognitive activation (CA) among individual children in math-related activities within Chinese kindergarten classrooms. The findings show that teachers tend to provide direct CA with high concreteness and that child engagement with tasks is…
