Cox, Marjolein; Elen, Jan; Steegen, An – Review of International Geographical Education Online, 2019
The use of causal diagrams to externalize the mental representation of a problem is recognized to be an important step in solving complex problems. In geography education several global challenges taught about in class are highly complex due to the interconnectedness of many causes and consequences. A systems thinking approach might be helpful to…

Rokhmat, Joni; Marzuki; Wahyudi; Putrie, Syandy Dwirahayu – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2019
Unlike general approaches to learning, the Causalitic-Thinking Approach, aims to construct phenomena that have more than one possible answer. However this approach requires scaffolding strategies. This study aims to investigate the strategy of developing scaffolding in learning with the Causalitic-Thinking Approach to increase students'…

Marjolein Cox; An Steegen; Jan Elen – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2018
To gain insight into complex sustainability problems and acknowledge complexity is essential and can be achieved by creating an overview of the entire system, including interaction between variables. Therefore, systems thinking is recognized as a vital cognitive skill required to grasp complex global problems. Nevertheless, the implementation of…

Babai, R.; Levyadun, T.; Stavy, R.; Tirosh, D. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science & Technology, 2006
It has been observed that students react in similar ways to mathematics and science tasks that differ with regard either to their content area and/or to the type of reasoning required, but share some common, external features. Based on these observations, the Intuitive Rules Theory was proposed. In this present study the framework of this theory…
