The Effect of a Web-Based Homework System on Student Outcomes in a First-Year Mathematics Course
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Lenz, Laurie – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2010
Web-based homework (WBH) systems are being utilized in many college mathematics classrooms. Do these systems have an effect on student outcomes when compared to traditional paper-and-pencil homework (PPH)? This study compares student outcomes in multiple sections of a required mathematics course. The sections differed only in the homework delivery…

Teachers' Approaches towards Word Problem Solving: Elaborating or Restricting the Problem Context
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Depaepe, Fien; De Corte, Erik; Verschaffel, Lieven – Teaching and Teacher Education: An International Journal of Research and Studies, 2010
This contribution reports about a seven-month long video-based study in two regular Flemish sixth-grade mathematics classrooms. The focus is on teachers' approaches towards problem solving. In our analysis we distinguished between a paradigmatic-oriented (focus on the mathematical structure) and a narrative-oriented (focus on the contextual…

Effects of Small-Group Tutoring with and without Validated Classroom Instruction on At-Risk Students' Math Problem Solving: Are Two Tiers of Prevention Better than One?
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Fuchs, Lynn S.; Fuchs, Douglas; Craddock, Caitlin; Hollenbeck, Kurstin N.; Hamlett, Carol L.; Schatschneider, Christopher – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2008
This study assessed the effects of small-group tutoring with and without validated classroom instruction on at-risk students' math problem solving. Stratifying within schools, 119 3rd-grade classes were randomly assigned to conventional or validated problem-solving instruction (Hot Math, schema-broadening instruction). Students identified as at…

The Effects of Different Modes of Representation on the Solution of One-Step Additive Problems
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Elia, Iliada; Gagatsis, Athanasios; Demetriou, Andreas – Learning and Instruction, 2007
This study investigated the role of different modes of representation, i.e., verbal description, decorative pictures, informational pictures and number line, in solving additive change problems. Data were collected from 1447 students in Grades 1, 2, and 3. Structural equations modelling affirmed the existence of four first-order…

Studying and Capturing the Complexity of Practice--The Case of the "Dance of Agency"
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Boaler, Jo – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2003
In this paper I will explore three contrasting teaching and learning environments, including one in which students engage in a "dance of agency". I will move from a consideration of classroom practices to a contention that our work as researchers of mathematics education should pay more attention to teaching practices. Further, that understanding…

Evaluation of the TSC Dolphin Computer Assisted Instructional System in the Chapter 1 Program of the District of Columbia Public Schools. Final Report 85-9.
Harris, Carolyn DeMeyer; And Others – 1985
Dolphin is a computer-assisted instruction system used to teach and reinforce skills in reading, language arts, and mathematics. An evaluation of this system was conducted to provide information to TSC Division of Houghton Mifflin regarding its effectiveness and possible modifications to the system. The general design of the evaluation was to…
