Eckman, Derek; Roh, Kyeong Hah – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
This paper describes our work to determine the naturalistic images that first-time second-semester university calculus students possess for series convergence. We found that the students we interviewed most frequently determined whether a series converged by imagining a process of appending summands into a running total and examining whether this…

Tran, Dung; Lee, Hollylynne; Doerr, Helen – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2016
The research reported here uses a pre/post-test model and stimulated recall interviews to assess teachers' statistical reasoning about comparing distributions, when enrolled in a graduate-level statistics education course. We discuss key aspects of the course design aimed at improving teachers' learning and teaching of statistics, and the…

John, Bina Ann; Cameron, Linda; Bartel, Lee – Action, Criticism, and Theory for Music Education, 2016
Music is a distinct form of communication that manifests naturally when children are engaged in musical play regardless of their cultural backgrounds. In an ethnically diverse, urban community music school, where the majority of children represent non-western populations, the need for creativity-focused approaches that do not assume a western…

Sadaghian, Shirin; Marandi, S. Susan – Research-publishing.net, 2016
The concept of language learner autonomy has influenced Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) to the extent that Schwienhorst (2012) informs us of a paradigm change in CALL design in the light of learner autonomy. CALL is not considered a tool anymore, but a learner environment available to language learners anywhere in the world. Based on a…

Brady, Kathy – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2012
This study examines the developing beliefs and practices of six beginning primary teachers. Their accounts reveal practices indicative of contemporary approaches to teaching and learning in mathematics. Additionally, a consistency appears to exist between the beliefs and practices of the beginning teachers, and the ideals for mathematics teaching…

Bofferding, Laura; Richardson, Sue Ellen – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2013
Fifteen elementary and secondary teacher candidates solved sixteen integer addition and subtraction problems during think-aloud interviews. Investigators further probed participants' solution strategies as well as what they noticed first when starting a new problem. Task analyses of participants' solutions led to the creation of two distinct maps…

Nocchi, Susanna; Blin, Françoise – Research-publishing.net, 2013
Notwithstanding their potential for novel approaches to language teaching and learning, Virtual Worlds (VWs) present numerous technological and pedagogical challenges that require new paradigms if the language learning experience and outcomes are to be successful. In this presentation, we argue that the notions of presence and affordance, together…

Jantjies, Mmaki E.; Joy, Mike – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2014
This paper presents a multilingual mobile learning framework that can be used to support the pedagogical development of mobile learning systems which can support learning in under-resourced multilingual schools. The framework has been developed following two empirical mobile learning studies. Both studies were conducted in multilingual South…

Pietsch, Marilyn; Williamson, John – Australian Teacher Education Association, 2009
The majority of newly qualified teachers in New South Wales, Australia, begin their careers as casual teachers in fragmented employment contexts which make it difficult to build on the knowledge base gained at university through continuous, and continuously evaluated, practice in a classroom. This study explored the experiences of early career…

Steele, Jim – Online Submission, 2008
When organizations employ professionals it is critical to comprehend the nature of professional identity as it relates to learning in the workplace. These findings indicate ways that professional identity influences workplace learning behavior in doctors of veterinary medicine. Using grounded theory, ethnographic investigation and analysis…

Morgan, Alistair; And Others – 1981
Many recent studies of student learning are grounded in a theoretical framework which is experiential and describes learning from the learner's perspective or "from the inside". A research project on student learning in the Open University has followed a group of 30 students through their first year of university study. Students were…

Reiff, John; Kirscht, Judith – 1989
To explore the relationship between inquiry and composing, a study interviewed 14 faculty members from several disciplines at the University of California at Santa Barbara, inquiring about the natural history of their research projects; where their ideas originated; what they did with those ideas; where their research took them; and what was the…

Read, John – 1987
While interest in second language vocabulary knowledge has increased, vocabulary testing remains largely confined to the quantitative measurement of discrete items. More qualitative measures are needed to assess how well particular words are known. Research has characterized word knowledge in two ways: as a set of components or aspects, and as an…

Rivera, Ferdinand; Becker, Joanne Rossi – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2003
In this report, we address the following questions: What aspects of information do preservice elementary teachers rely on when performing inductive reasoning? What contexts enable them to perceive the inherent invariant relationships from a finite sample and, thus, formulate viable generalizations? To what extent are they able to justify inductive…
