The Jeong (2020) study found that greater use of backward and depth-first processing was associated with higher scores on students' argument maps and that analysis of only the first five nodes students placed in their maps predicted map scores. This study utilized the jMAP tool and algorithms developed in the Jeong (2020) study to determine if the…

This paper investigates the expectations that a group of preservice secondary mathematics teachers had for how students would approach four particular algebra problems. Their responses to a set of open-ended items were content analysed. Findings show that the teachers ranged in the expectations that they held for their students. Some teachers…

Machine learning is a powerful method for predicting the outcomes of interactions with educational software, such as the grade a student is likely to receive. However, a predicted outcome alone provides little insight regarding how a student's experience should be personalized based on that outcome. In this paper, we explore a generalizable…

Self-set educational goals are central to self-regulated learning and an observable manifestation of students' motivation. In this paper, we develop and trial a tagset for the characteristics of university students' self-set goals. The novelty of this approach consists in using data-driven, non-exclusive tags, rather than theory-derived, exclusive…

This study explores the relationship between pre-service teachers' (PSTs) early experiences and their current views on mathematics. The data were collected through an online survey from 107 PSTs and were analysed using descriptive statistics and Pearson's Chi-square test. Study results suggest that PSTs' early mathematics experiences relate to…

In the learning sciences, heterogeneity among students usually leads to different learning strategies or patterns and may require different types of instructional interventions. Therefore, it is important to investigate student subtyping, which is to group students into subtypes based on their learning patterns. Subtyping from complex student…

With the rapid growth of digital education, e-learning has become essential for offering accessible and flexible learning opportunities. This paper investigates strategies to achieve long-term learning outcomes and reduce study time in e-learning. It explores various techniques, including self-testing, spaced repetition, and the serial position…

Extant research has demonstrated that problem-posing and problem-solving mutually affect one another. However, the exact nature and extent of this relationship requires a detailed elaboration. This is especially true when adidactical problem-posing arises within a problem-solving context. In this study, we analyze the scripting journey used by two…

Student multimodal writing has gained attention in the teaching and learning of mathematics with the anticipation that these assignments will benefit student engagement and learning in a variety of ways. This study investigates students' perceptions of learning in a post-secondary calculus course, which contained four multimodal writing…

Society has increasingly looked upon science education to prepare the public for Industrial Revolution 4.0, as scientific reasoning and practices can hone 21st century skills, including scientific literacy. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has changed how science is taught and learned. Hence, this mixed methods study seeks to determine if there…

Math anxiety refers to feelings people get when facing computational challenges. The fear of failure often causes people to avoid activities, like taking challenging mathematics courses or choosing majors that require mathematics. Grit describes how people persist or persevere in the wake of failure. This article looks at factors that contribute…

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a significant change in college mathematics education toward online learning, which has advantages and disadvantages for students, instructors, and institutions. To ensure the effectiveness of online learning, it is crucial to understand the factors that influence its success. This study looks at the…

This study examined the causal relationship of goal orientation and conception of learning on learning behavior; previously, these concepts were examined separately in preceding studies. A sample of 185 fourth-grade university students participated in the study. A covariance structure analysis revealed that the causal effect regarding goal…

Students in a gateway college science course were assigned to two instructional conditions: explanation-only or augmented instruction. In the explanation-only condition, students wrote explanations for six excerpts from their textbook. The augmented-instruction condition wrote explanations on only four of the excerpts, with the other two serving…

This research attempts to add to the existing literature of language learning strategy uses by advancing our understanding of what language learning strategies (LLS) are preferred by learners who were given a one-year English education at two state universities and to find out whether strategy uses were directly related to being successful in…
