Jiwon Hwang; Sam Choo; Stephanie Morano; Mengyuan Liang; Matthew Kabel – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2024
Recent studies have posited that K-12 science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education should go beyond traditional subject silos and take an interdisciplinary approach that integrates these core subjects into a cohesive curriculum to foster authentic problem-solving skills. The purpose of this study was to field test one of five…

Leong, Yew Hoong – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2023
The phenomenon of teachers designing their own instructional materials is gaining more attention in research. Different aspects of this enterprise have been examined--its potential to reveal the complexity of teachers' instructional planning considerations, the design principles employed by teachers to realise instructional goals, among others. In…

Gülsüm Gök; Gökçe Boncukçu – Journal of Science Learning, 2023
This study investigates the impact of the problem-based learning (PBL) model on middle school students' environmental literacy and problem-solving skills. A quantitative research study was conducted using a quasi-experimental design for this aim. The sample comprises 114 8th-grade students from a public middle school in Sanliurfa, Turkey. Four…

Jarry-Shore, Michael; Delaney, Victoria; Borko, Hilda – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2023
A common approach to scaling up a professional development program is for the researchers who designed the program to prepare teacher leaders to facilitate it at their schools. When researchers eventually leave, however, teacher leaders may receive less support. To ensure that teacher leaders continue receiving support, researchers can prepare…

Fengfeng Ke; Chih-Pu Dai; Luke West – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Game-based learning can frame problem-solving as a sense-making experience with domain-specific tasks for school students. However, multiple challenges arise when trying to support learners in such a complex, problem-oriented learning environment. Objectives and Methods: With an architecture-themed mathematics learning game, we…

Martinez, Robert R., Jr.; Marraccini, Marisa E.; Knotek, Steven E.; Neshkes, Rebecca A.; Vanderburg, Juliana – School Mental Health, 2022
A classroom guidance curriculum following the dialectical behavior therapy skills training for emotion problem solving for adolescents (DBT STEPS-A) was evaluated using a pretest-posttest nonequivalent groups quasi-experimental design. Data from 94 ninth-grade students (42 treatment, 52 control) enrolled in a rural high school were analyzed via…

Ju, Yucui; Liu, Jiping – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2022
Tailoring workshop (TW), a school-based teacher training program, has been developed in China on the basis of the Teaching Research Groups (TRGs) to better focus on teacher's genuine needs, improve their problem-solving ability, and inter-subject collaboration. Literature on teacher workshops predominately roots in western settings whereas scant…

Secil Alniak-Daye; Feral Ogan-Bekiroglu – Science Insights Education Frontiers, 2025
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of STEM activities on students' attitudes towards STEM and problem-solving skills by taking their components into account. An experimental design with pretest-posttest control group was applied in the study. Quantitative and qualitative data collection tools were used. The participants of the study…

Rosa, Milton; Orey, Daniel Clark; de Sousa Mesquita, Ana Paula Santos – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2023
Citizenship education is historically linked with political developments that have forced governments to think deeper about nationality, power, identity, and the process of decolonization since large sectors of the population are denied and even excluded from the development of their citizenship. Currently, there is a need to provide mechanisms…

Nizaruddin; Kusmaryono, Imam – International Journal of Educational Methodology, 2023
This exploratory and descriptive study aims to theoretically promote the schema of pseudo-thinking processes in mathematical problem-solving by students. The participants in this study were 36 eighth graders and one math teacher. The researchers collected the data using tests and interviews. The results showed that the structure of pseudo-thinking…

Eka Senjayawati; Muhamad Galang Isnawan; Sugiman; Elly Arliani – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2025
Problem-solving ability was one of the competencies that students had to have, but it became more important when learning mathematics. Quite a lot of research has studied this ability, but not much has studied how to optimise it, especially using didactical design research based on lesson study. Participants in this research were 10 students…

Asha K. Jitendra; Michael R. Harwell; Soo-hyun Im – Journal of Experimental Education, 2024
This study investigated the sustainability effects of the schema-based instruction (SBI) program and corresponding PD on the instructional practices of two cohorts of teachers (i.e., SBI experienced-teacher implementers and SBI novice-teacher implementers) and on students' ability to reason with proportions and overall mathematics performance. SBI…

Sam Rhodes; Kelly Reigle; Rita Della Valle; Jennifer Gonzales – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2025
Metacognition supports students in successfully working through struggle by equipping them with the tools to maintain an awareness of what they are doing and to change directions when needed to overcome obstacles. Thus, it is of little surprise that effective problem solvers spend a significant amount of time analyzing tasks relative to the amount…
