Taylor Lesner; Marah Sutherland; Cayla Lussier; Ben Clarke – Intervention in School and Clinic, 2024
Building proficiency with fraction arithmetic poses a consistent challenge for students with learning difficulties or disabilities in mathematics. This article illustrates how teachers can use the number line model to support struggling learners in making sense of fraction arithmetic. Number lines are a powerful tool that can be used to help…

Pamela Burdman – Numeracy, 2024
This keynote address explores the history and role of college math requirements with a focus on ensuring math courses serve to expand students' horizons, rather than serve as gatekeepers. It discusses the advent of general education math courses, which brought more students into math departments, which ultimately contributed to broadening the…

Paul Scovazzo – Chemical Engineering Education, 2025
Simplifying equations via assumptions is integral to the "engineering method." Algebraic scaling helps in teaching the engineering skill of making good assumptions. Algebraic scaling is more than a pedagogical tool. It can create a solution where one was not possible before scaling. Scaling helps in engineering proper design…

Thomas D. Montgomery; Bridget M. Green; Cliff G. Oliech; Jeffrey D. Evanseck – Journal of Postsecondary Education and Disability, 2024
Colleges are becoming increasingly diverse, including strengthening representation of students with disabilities in STEM (Science, Teaching, Engineering, and Math) fields; however, representation still lags behind national trends. To adapt to this changing demographic and improve representation, STEM college professors must be prepared to grant…

Byrka, Marian F.; Sushchenko, Andrii V.; Svatiev, Andrii V.; Mazin, Vasyl M.; Veritov, Oleksandr I. – Journal of Educational Psychology - Propositos y Representaciones, 2021
The relevance of this article is due to the need to form and develop algorithmic thinking of higher education students as the main requirement of the information society following 21st century skills and competences for new millennium learners. The purpose of the article is to consider algorithmic thinking as a new dimension of learning in higher…

Donna McNeight – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2023
Encouraging students' ability to reason can be looked at through the lens of both oral and written representations. In 2022, the author participated in the first intake of the Teacher Excellence Program run by the Victorian Teaching Academy. Being part of an in-depth professional learning program challenged the author's teaching practices to focus…

D. Oliveira; C. Guerra; M. J. Loureiro; G. Jeremias; J. L. Pereira – Educational Media International, 2024
The public's growing interest in epigenetics, particularly its applications in human health, underscores the significance of epigenetic mechanisms in regulating gene activity and promoting phenotypic diversity without altering DNA sequences. Within the framework of the Extended Evolutionary Synthesis, epigenetics is regarded as a non-genetic…

Sternberg, Robert J.; Ehsan, Hoda; Ghahremani, Mehdi – Roeper Review, 2022
In this article, we present a hierarchical model for teaching scientific thinking to gifted students. This article follows up on an article published 40 years ago in this journal. The problem now, as 40 years ago, is that gifted students often are taught science courses at a more intensive level, but without their truly learning how to think…

Boluk, Karla A. – Schole: A Journal of Leisure Studies and Recreation Education, 2023
An Integrated Curriculum Design (ICD) is a strategy to unite core degree courses. Specifically, an ICD is the authentic integration of courses into a learning unit that fosters a better understanding across curricula. As such, an ICD involves the integration of content with skills and processes. The goal is to support deep learning and facilitate…

Hsiao-Ping Hsu – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2025
The advancement of large language model-based generative artificial intelligence (LLM-based GenAI) has sparked significant interest in its potential to address challenges in computational thinking (CT) education. CT, a critical problem-solving approach in the digital age, encompasses elements such as abstraction, iteration, and generalisation.…

Pelánek, Radek; Effenberger, Tomáš – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2023
To provide practice and assessment of computational thinking, we need specific problems students can solve. There are many such problems, but they are hard to find. Learning environments and assessments often use only specific types of problems and thus do not cover computational thinking in its whole scope. We provide an extensive catalog of…

Stout, Jody; Rouse, Rob; Malesic, Jonathan; Krummeck, Katie – Science and Children, 2022
Design thinking--a human-centered approach to problem solving--is a process by which K-12 teachers engage students in solving relevant issues that occur in their schools. In this article, the authors describe a project in which fourth-graders used design thinking to solve an unexpected issue related to a much-anticipated class project. The project…
