Fischer, Jean-Paul; Vilette, Bruno; Joffredo-Lebrun, Sophie; Morellato, Mireille; Le Normand, Céline; Scheibling-Seve, Calliste; Richard, Jean-François – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2019
The question of teaching a standard written algorithm for the four arithmetical operations in the first years of elementary school is increasingly raised as a consequence of the possibility of using calculators, tablets, and computers. This article first presents arguments both against and for maintaining this teaching in the first school years.…

Vere?, Sanda; Magda?, Ioana – Romanian Review of Geographical Education, 2020
This research aims to analyse the process of grasping the Solar System by the students during their learning activities in which we used an animation film and other educational means (geographic globe, schematic drawings, 3D model, etc.), as well as the results obtained. In order to achieve this goal, we organized an action-research within…

Li, Juan; Ma, Fengzhan; Wang, Yannan; Lan, Ruoxi; Zhang, Yanrong; Dai, Xiaotong – Interactive Learning Environments, 2020
In this study, a situation-based interactive e-book system was developed for improving children's learning performance of numerical operations. To evaluate the effectiveness of the system, an experiment was conducted in one kindergarten. The results showed that the proposed approach significantly improved the children's learning achievements.…

Levesque, Kyle C.; Kieffer, Michael J.; Deacon, S. Hélène – Reading Research Quarterly, 2019
Skilled reading comprehension is an important goal of educational instruction and models of reading development. In this study, the authors investigated how core skills surrounding morphemes, that is, the minimal units of meaning in language, support the development of reading comprehension. The authors specifically contrast the roles of…

Lin, Yong-Teng; Chen, Chih-Ming – Interactive Learning Environments, 2019
Online video-based learning has been increasingly used in educational settings. However, students usually do not have enough cognitive capacity and metacognition skills to diagnose and record their attention status during learning tasks by themselves. This study thus presents an attention-based video lecture review mechanism (AVLRM) that can…
