Lonneke Boels; Arthur Bakker; Wim Van Dooren; Paul Drijvers – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2025
Many students persistently misinterpret histograms. This calls for closer inspection of students' strategies when interpreting histograms and case-value plots (which look similar but are different). Using students' gaze data, we ask: "How and how well do upper secondary pre-university school students estimate and compare arithmetic means of…

Mathias Mejeh; Barbara Stampfli; Tina Hascher – Frontline Learning Research, 2024
Self-regulated learning (SRL) has gained increasing attention in educational science over the past four decades. Especially within the context of the lifelong learning debate, regulatory strategies play a crucial role, as they are essential not only within schools and classrooms but also in lifelong learning contexts. Concurrently, the discussion…

Chen, Xin – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2022
Previous studies have identified the relationship between cognitive activation and academic emotions. However, little is known about the underlying process behind this relationship. Considering that cognitive activation strategies may have different effects on students of different abilities, latent multi-group structural equation modelling was…

Zheng, Juan; Xing, Wanli; Huang, Xudong; Li, Shan; Chen, Guanhua; Xie, Charles – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
Research on self-regulated learning (SRL) in engineering design is growing. While SRL is an effective way of learning, however, not all learners can regulate themselves successfully. There is a lack of research regarding how student characteristics, such as science knowledge and design knowledge, interact with SRL. Adapting the SRL theory in the…

He, Jingwen; Liu, Yue; Ran, Tong; Zhang, Danhui – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2023
Feedback plays an important role in self-regulated learning. However, little is known about how students' feedback perception affects their self-regulation process in learning. This study adopted the social cognitive perspective to investigate how students' feedback perception is related to their self-regulated learning, along with the mediating…

Karabenick, Stuart A.; Berger, Jean-Louis; Ruzek, Erik; Schenke, Katerina – Metacognition and Learning, 2021
There is substantial evidence that students' use of self-regulated learning strategies is directly related to their motivation to achieve desired learning outcomes (designated outcome motivation: OM). Further, motivational beliefs about the strategies themselves (designated strategy motivation: SM) may also influence strategy use. In the absence…

Rumack, Aaron M. – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2021
Reading mathematics problems can frustrate students to the point of shutting down. Although Pólya's four-step plan is a well-known problem-solving framework, the author's students benefited from a more concrete and detailed approach: chunking the reading. In this article, the author describes an approach to problem solving used with eighth-grade…
