The Mathematical, Motivational, and Cognitive Characteristics of High Mathematics Achievers in Primary School
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Bakker, Merel; Torbeyns, Joke; Verschaffel, Lieven; De Smedt, Bert – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Many studies in the past decades have focused on low and typical mathematics achievers, yet little is known about children with high mathematics achievement, particularly at a young age. The current study aimed to fill this gap and started from the early work of Krutetskii (1976) as a theoretical lens to study the characteristics of high…

Post-Class Naps Boost Declarative Learning in a Naturalistic School Setting
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Thiago Cabral; Natália B. Mota; Lucia Fraga; Mauro Copelli; Mark A. McDaniel; Sidarta Ribeiro – npj Science of Learning, 2018
Laboratory evidence of a positive effect of sleep on declarative memory consolidation suggests that naps can be used to boost school learning in a scalable, low-cost manner. The few direct investigations of this hypothesis have so far upheld it, but departed from the naturalistic setting by testing non-curricular contents presented by…

Improving Fraction Understanding in Sixth Graders with Mathematics Difficulties: Effects of a Number Line Approach Combined with Cognitive Learning Strategies
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Barbieri, Christina A.; Rodrigues, Jessica; Dyson, Nancy; Jordan, Nancy C. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
The effectiveness of an experimental middle school fraction intervention was evaluated. The intervention was centered on the number line and incorporated key principles from the science of learning. Sixth graders (N = 51) who struggled with fraction concepts were randomly assigned at the student level to the experimental intervention (n = 28) or…

Using Mnemonics Strategies to Improve Primary Stage Pupils' EFL Vocabulary Learning and Retention Skills
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Ghoneim, Nahed Mohammed Mahmoud; Elghotmy, Heba Elsayed Abdelsalam – Online Submission, 2016
Vocabulary has always been one of the significant issues that affect the English language learning and teaching. The current study aims to improve primary stage pupils' EFL vocabulary learning and retention skills through using mnemonics. Sixty four 6th grade primary school pupils were randomly assigned into experimental and control groups. The…
