Calleja, James; Buhagiar, Michael A. – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2022
This paper explores students' resistance when they were expected by their teacher to start learning mathematics through investigations, a pedagogy that emphasizes an active and agentic approach to learning in contrast to the traditional transmission-based teaching to which they were accustomed. This resistance is investigated from the perspectives…

Hua-yang Zhang; Yi-xin Wang; Wei Liu – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
During the normalization of COVID-19 control measures, more and more high school students are learning through the Internet. With the widespread use of online teaching, students' internet self-efficacy has become an important factor in measuring students' online learning ability. Although researchers have been paying greater attention to the…

Sukardjo, Moch.; Salam, Mohamad – International Journal of Instruction, 2020
This study examined the effect of the concept attainment learning model and self-directed learning (SDL) on mathematics learning outcomes. This research is a quasi-experiment conducted in SMA Negeri 6 Kendari, Indonesia, grade 10 th. The sample in this study was grade 10th (3rd) as the experimental class and grade 10th (5rd) as the control class.…

Mbhiza, Hlamulo W. – Pythagoras, 2022
Examples that teachers choose and use are fundamental to what mathematics is taught and learned, and what opportunities for learning are created in mathematics classrooms. This qualitative multiple case study, using Sfard's commognitive theory, draws attention to mathematics teachers' classroom practices during functions lessons which is…

Street, Karin E. S.; Malmberg, Lars-Erik; Stylianides, Gabriel J. – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2022
Self-efficacy in mathematics is related to engagement, persistence, and academic performance. Prior research focused mostly on examining changes to students' self-efficacy across large time intervals (months or years), and paid less attention to changes at the level of lesson sequences. Knowledge of how self-efficacy changes during a sequence of…

Weinhandl, Robert; Lavicza, Zsolt; Houghton, Tony; Hohenwarter, Markus – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
This study aims to uncover some key elements of successful home-learning of mathematics, based on students' perceptions, during the COVID-19 pandemic and offer recommendations for mathematics learning beyond the crisis. Throughout our work, we aimed to examine students' reflections on mathematics learning and learning environments that assisted…

Walsh, Tanja; Vainio, Teija; Varsaluoma, Jari – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2014
In the era of mobile devices and services, researchers in the educational domain have been interested in how to support learning with mobile technology in both local and global contexts. Recent human-computer interaction (HCI) research in the educational domain has particularly focused on how to develop mobile learning services and how to evaluate…

Van Velzen, Joke – Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice, 2013
Theory on student learning provides that students are able to direct their learning when they have metacognitive knowledge about their own learning processes. In this article, a preliminary attempt to assess untrained high-school students’ metacognitive knowledge of learning processes as an ability through multiple-choice questions is reported. In…

Wu, Yanming; Lin, Angel M. Y. – Classroom Discourse, 2019
While translanguaging research has been gaining currency worldwide, calls have been made for deepening its theorisation and providing more systematic pedagogical guidance. To contribute to this discussion, this study is informed by a fluid, distributed, dynamic process view of human meaning-making. Through a fine-grained multimodal analysis of…

Yang, Yang; Crook, Charles; O'Malley, Claire – Learning, Media and Technology, 2014
Schools are often encouraged to facilitate extra-curricular learning within their own premises. This study addresses the potential of social networking sites (SNS) for supporting such out-of-class study. Given concerns that learning on these sites may happen at a surface level, we adopted self-determination theory for designing a social networking…

Bayne, Gillian U. – Pedagogies: An International Journal, 2013
This article presents the findings of a 3-year case study that examines the lasting effects of having participated in cogenerative dialogues during a 9th grade science experience. Theo, a high school student researcher of more than three years, affords insights into the expansion of human agency, attributing it to his consistent participation in…

Yuen, Allan H. K. – Educational Media International, 2006
Extensive studies have been conducted on programming knowledge, instructional environments and effective pedagogies in order to improve the teaching and learning of computer programming. However, there have been few studies on the usefulness and effectiveness of using simulation. The aim of this paper is two-fold: to describe the design and…

Robert, Aline; Rogalski, Janine – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2005
The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the debate about how to tackle the issue of "the teacher in the teaching/learning process", and to propose a methodology for analysing the teacher's activity in the classroom, based on concepts used in the fields of the didactics of mathematics as well as in cognitive ergonomics. This…
