Kevin Chan; Pui-sze Yeung; Kevin Kien Hoa Chung – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2025
Foreign language anxiety has influenced reading achievement in English as a second language learning (ESL). However, less is known about how foreign language anxiety affects Chinese students learning English as L2 and the interplay between foreign language anxiety and cognitive-linguistic factors on L2 reading performance. This longitudinal study…

Morón-Monge, Hortensia; García-Carmona, Antonio – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
A qualitative study was made of how the learning-to-learn competence is favoured in prospective primary teachers when they participate in an experimental activity (ExA). The ExA was on the germination of seeds. Its objective was for the prospective teachers to learn how to (i) design and execute a school scientific inquiry, and (ii) reflect…

Karaoglan Yilmaz, Fatma Gizem; Yilmaz, Ramazan – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2022
One of the main problems encountered in the online learning process is the low or absence of students' engagement. They may face problems with behavioral engagement, cognitive engagement, emotional engagement in online learning environments. It is thought that the problems related to students' engagements can be overcome with personalized…

Lu Zhang; Yue Lei; Tim Pelton; Leslee Francis Pelton; Junjie Shang – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Digital game-based learning (DGBL) has the potential to provide a gender inclusive learning environment for children. Objective: The present study aimed to explore gendered differences among primary school learners in grades three, four, and five within the context of game-based fraction learning from cognitive, motivational and…

Inoue, Tomohiro; Zheng, Mo; Ho, Connie Suk-Han; McBride, Catherine – Developmental Psychology, 2023
We examined the developmental trajectories and cognitive predictors of first language Chinese reading, second language English reading, and mathematics skills in Hong Kong children in Grades 1-5. We used longitudinal data of 1,000 children (M[subscript age] = 7.59 years) assessed on phonological awareness, rapid naming, and morphological awareness…

Hopkins, Sarah; Russo, James; Siegler, Robert – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2022
There is a growing awareness that many children are not developing fast and accurate retrieval-based strategies for solving single-digit addition problems. In this study we individually assessed 166 third and fourth grade children to identify a group of children (called accurate-min-counters) who frequently solved simple single-digit addition…

Gaoxia Zhu; Marlene Scardamalia; Raadiyah Nazeem; Zoe Donoahue; Leanne Ma; Zhixin Lai – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2024
Knowledge Building principles such as real ideas, authentic problems; epistemic agency; and collective responsibility for advancement of community knowledge convey ways in which Knowledge Building mirrors work in knowledge-creating communities. Previous studies suggest Metadiscourse--discourse about discourse--helps sustain and improve community…

Andriyani – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2023
Cognitive and psychomotor capabilities are two critical interrelated abilities to improve student learning outcomes. Both abilities play a role in understanding new information and developing fine motor skills. Hence, schools train students these two abilities to equip them with basic skills in solving mathematical problems such as basic…

David Tzuriel; Tammy Weiss; Gaby Kashy-Rosenbaum – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2024
Background and Aims: This study examined the effects of working memory training (WMT) on WM and fluid intelligence. A novel four-pronged model of mediated learning, cognitive functions, task characteristics and metacognition is presented as a conceptual basis for the Modifiability of a Working Memory Program (MWMP). Our basic assumption is that…

Lea Nemeth; Frank Lipowsky – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Interleaved practice combined with comparison prompts can better foster students' adaptive use of subtraction strategies compared to blocked practice. It has not been previously investigated whether all students benefit equally from these teaching approaches. While interleaving subtraction tasks prompts students' attention to the different task…

Lukas Baumanns; Demetra Pitta-Pantazi; Eleni Demosthenous; Achim J. Lilienthal; Constantinos Christou; Maike Schindler – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
Recognizing patterns is an essential skill in early mathematics education. However, first graders often have difficulties with tasks such as extending patterns of the form ABCABC. Studies show that this pattern-recognition ability is a good predictor of later pre-algebraic skills and mathematical achievement in general, or the development of…

Tomasetto, Carlo; Morsanyi, Kinga; Guardabassi, Veronica; O'Connor, Patrick A. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
Whereas some evidence exists that math anxiety may interfere with math performance from the very beginning of primary school, no study to date has attempted to investigate whether math anxiety may also interfere with early math learning (i.e., the encoding of new math knowledge) and not only with recalling already mastered contents in test…

Lynn S. Fuchs; Douglas Fuchs; Eunsoo Cho; Marcia A. Barnes; Tuire Koponen; Daniel R. Espinas – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2025
The purpose of this analysis was to describe cognitive processes associated with comorbid difficulty between word reading (WR) and mathematics computation (MC) at the start of first grade among children selected for WR and MC delays. A sample of 234 U.S. children (mean age 6.50 years, SD = 0.31) was assessed on WR, MC, core cognitive processes…
