Construction and Analysis of a Decision Tree-Based Predictive Model for Learning Intervention Advice
Chenglong Wang – Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology - TOJET, 2024
The rapid development of education informatization has accumulated a large amount of data for learning analytics, and adopting educational data mining to find new patterns of data, develop new algorithms and models, and apply known predictive models to the teaching system to improve learning is the challenge and vision of the education field in…

Mtetwa, David; Garofalo, Joe – Academic Therapy, 1989
The article identifies five incorrect beliefs about mathematics often held by students who have difficulty with mathematics. They include: the relative size of numbers is more important than the relationships between quantities; computation problems must be solved by using a step-by-step algorithm; mathematics problems have only one correct…

Kameenui, Edward J.; Carnine, Douglas W. – Exceptional Child, 1986
Significant differences were found favoring skill-deficient second-graders (N=10) provided with repeated preteaching trials on a selected component skill of a subtraction algorithm before they worked the entire algorithm over students (N=10) who, from the beginning of training, received systematic instruction on working the entire algorithm.…

Bryll, Grzegorz; Rabijewska, Barbara – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 1980
The theory of unary and binary operations are discussed and illustrated with examples from school mathematics. Presentations of selected inverse operations are made and attention is drawn to certain "typical" problems that occur during instruction and learning of these concepts. (MP)

Hasemann, Klaus – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 1981
Students recognized as less successful individuals in mathematics are tested for their understanding of fractions. The data reveals that most were only able to apply remembered rules to problems without actually knowing if the rule worked for the given situation. (MP)

Jencks, Stanley M.; And Others – Arithmetic Teacher, 1980
Children's difficulties remembering correct algorithms for operations with fractions are traced to difficulties in the instructional sequence. Many teachers "teach mistakes" by failing to provide sufficient referents for their pupils. (MP)

Booth, Lesley R. – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 1981
Common mathematical errors of pupils as identified by the Concepts in Secondary Mathematics and Science Project are identified and traced to the use of methods invented by students rather than formally taught methods. (MP)

Barclay, Tim – Mathematics Teaching, 1980
A computer program named BUGGY is described. The program is designed to duplicate "traditional" student mathematical mistakes; pupils are to identify the nature of the errors the computer makes. (MP)
