Angelo Marade – Commission for International Adult Education, 2023
Recent studies examining college student behaviors in America, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, India, Southeast Asia (Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam) and Turkey have each reported notable depression and anxiety rates among college students. During this time when college student depression and anxiety is being…

Sonderegger, Stefan – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2022
The use of social robots in education is a growing area of research and the potential future applications are various. However, the conversational models behind current social robots and chatbot systems often rely on rule-based and retrieval-based methods. This limits the social robot to predefined responses and topics, thus hindering it from…

Mitali Thatte; Katie Makar – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2024
This study was conducted in Maharashtra, India with children studying in a regional medium (Marathi) government school. In Marathi, the translation of the word 'about' is not very commonly used. The aim of the study was to see how the children used uncertain language about prediction while engaged in a statistical investigation and how children…

Ian Whitacre; Domonique Caro-Rora; Azar Kamaldar – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
Limited literature addresses how elementary preservice teachers (PSTs) can advance their thinking about hierarchical geometric relationships. Informed by a commognitive perspective, we investigated this phenomenon as a matter of discursive change, focusing on word use, visual mediators, and narratives. We report on a teaching experiment involving…

Matute, Karla; Catsellón, Libni; Kitchen, Richard – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
This paper describes how fifth-grade English Learner students (ELs) in an urban school district develop the mathematics register during a problem-solving lesson. It provides examples of students' work to illustrate how they use the mathematics register to communicate their mathematical ideas orally and in writing. The teacher implemented teaching…

Friesen, Norm – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2016
The work of the later Wittgenstein has recently been taken up by a range of philosophers of education in English, such as Winch (1998), Peters (1999), Burbules (2010), and others (e.g. Aparece 2005). In their interpretations, these scholars have dealt variously with the difficulties posed by Wittgenstein's repeated use of the English word…

Roberts, Julie; Wright, Vince – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2019
Learning trajectories/progressions are an emerging research focus in mathematics education. A set of descriptors of early progress in mathematics was developed for students with complex needs. Developers leveraged off existing research-based frameworks and meta-analyses, as well as integrating findings from individual research studies in some…

Altrabsheh, Nabeela; Cocea, Mihaela; Fallahkhair, Sanaz – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
Teachers/lecturers typically adapt their teaching to respond to students' emotions, e.g. provide more examples when they think the students are confused. While getting a feel of the students' emotions is easier in small settings, it is much more difficult in larger groups. In these larger settings textual feedback from students could provide…

Meyer, Michael – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2014
This paper focuses on an inferential view on introducing new concepts in mathematics classrooms. A theoretical framework is presented which helps to analyse and reflect on the processes of teaching and learning mathematical concepts. The framework is based on the philosophies by Ludwig Wittgenstein and Robert Brandom. Wittgenstein's language-game…

Kitao, S. Kathleen; Kitao, Kenji – Research-publishing.net, 2013
Data-driven learning (DDL) is an inductive approach to language learning in which students study examples of authentic language and use them to find patterns of language use. This inductive approach to learning has the advantages of being learner-centered, encouraging hypothesis testing and learner autonomy, and helping develop learning skills.…

Walsh, Tanja; Vainio, Teija; Varsaluoma, Jari – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2014
In the era of mobile devices and services, researchers in the educational domain have been interested in how to support learning with mobile technology in both local and global contexts. Recent human-computer interaction (HCI) research in the educational domain has particularly focused on how to develop mobile learning services and how to evaluate…

de Villiers, Jill – 1983
The influence of maternal use of verbs upon a child's developing rule system for verb usage was examined. Previously reported data (Brown, 1983) on mother-to-child speech were analyzed. Thirteen different contexts for verb use were identified. There was a close resemblance between the way the child and his mother distributed their uses of verbs.…

Heilenman, Laura K. – 1979
The role of grammar in foreign language study should be shaped by realistic expectations of what academic study of a second language can accomplish. The temptation to emphasize grammar instruction above all else is reinforced by the patness of grammar instruction, by the measurability of student proficiency in grammar, and by the teacher's own…

Arundale, Robert B. – 1978
Research on how communicating human beings produce and understand language has focused mostly on what language is, less on how language is processed, and little on who produces and understands language. However, the interaction between what, who, and how is very significant. The importance of who does languaging is related both to the cognitive…

Bialystok, Ellen – 1982
An observable feature of learner language, linguistic variability, is described and used as the basis for speculating about an aspect of the process of second language learning. It is hypothesized that variation in correct use of target language forms varies as a function of the demands placed on the learner to produce these forms. Three groups of…
