Jaylin Lowe; Charlotte Z. Mann; Jiaying Wang; Adam Sales; Johann A. Gagnon-Bartsch – Grantee Submission, 2024
Recent methods have sought to improve precision in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) by utilizing data from large observational datasets for covariate adjustment. For example, consider an RCT aimed at evaluating a new algebra curriculum, in which a few dozen schools are randomly assigned to treatment (new curriculum) or control (standard…

Angelkoska, Slagana; Stankovska, Gordana; Dimitrovski, Dimitar – Bulgarian Comparative Education Society, 2016
When we speak about the academic achievement of the students and their personality, the internal state of a student is in connection with his personal experience and individual differences and talents, dispositions, motives, his "I" and a whole range of cognitive processes. Modern psychological theories of personality believe that the…

Fanari, Rachele; Meloni, Carla; Massidda, Davide – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2017
This work aims to evaluate the relationship between early numerical competence in kindergarteners and their numerical representations as measured by the number line task (NLT). Thirty-four 5-year-old children participated in the study. Children's early performance on symbolic and non-symbolic numerical tasks was considered to determine which was a…

Bagceli Kahraman, Pinar; Onur Sezer, Gonul – Eurasian Journal of Educational Research, 2017
Purpose: This research aims to determine the relationship between the perceptions of teacher candidates towards the cultural effect of globalization and their attitudes towards multicultural education. Research Methods: The sample group consisted of 213 teacher candidates. In the study's personal information form, the scale of attitude towards…

Vo, Thanh Duy; Samoilova, Valerria; Wilang, Jeffrey Dawala – Online Submission, 2017
Inconsistencies of results of foreign language anxiety's effect on advanced learners' language performances have persisted over the years. And little has been known on the relationship between foreign language anxiety and engineering graduate students' language performances. To fill the gap, this study employed a self-report anxiety scale called…

Likens, Aaron D.; McCarthy, Kathryn S.; Allen, Laura K.; McNamara, Danielle D. – Grantee Submission, 2018
Self-explanations are commonly used to assess on-line reading comprehension processes. However, traditional methods of analysis ignore important temporal variations in these explanations. This study investigated how dynamical systems theory could be used to reveal linguistic patterns that are predictive of self-explanation quality. High school…

Djigic, Gordana; Stojiljkovic, Snežana; Markovic, Andrijana – Bulgarian Comparative Education Society, 2016
This paper is concerned with the personality dimensions and learning styles of secondary school students, attending grammar and technical vocational school. The aim of the study is to examine differences in personality traits and learning styles between students from these types of schools, as well as to determine the predictive power of…

Kocaarslan, Mustafa – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2016
This study aimed to establish the possible relationships between reading comprehension competence, reading attitude and the vividness of mental imagery among Turkish fourth-grade students. Participants were fourth grade students, selected using convenience sampling from two different public schools (n=103) in Bartin, Turkey. The research was…

Crisp, Gloria; Reyes, Nicole Alia Salis; Doran, Erin – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2016
This study models graduation rates at 4-year broad access institutions (BAIs). We examine the student body, structural-demographic, and financial characteristics that best predict 6-year graduation rates. A Bayesian model averaging approach is utilized to account for uncertainty in variable selection in modeling graduation rates. Evidence suggests…

Tang, Steven; Gogel, Hannah; McBride, Elizabeth; Pardos, Zachary A. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
Online adaptive tutoring systems are increasingly being used in classrooms as a way to provide guided learning for students. Such tutors have the potential to provide tailored feedback based on specific student needs and misunderstandings. Bayesian knowledge tracing (BKT) is used to model student knowledge when knowledge is assumed to be changing…

Sarabi, M. K.; Gafoor, K. Abdul – Online Submission, 2017
There is increasing realization that mathematics-related self-efficacy expectations are a strong predictor of an array of significant mathematics outcomes. It is also evident that the curricular practice in schools largely neglects development of a student understanding in the unique language of mathematics. Consequently, this study probes how…

Pike, Gary R.; Graunke, Steven S. – Research in Higher Education, 2015
Despite being criticized as unrepresentative and misleading, retention and graduation rates are an important part of college-search web sites and accountability systems, and they frequently have been used as indicators of institutional quality and effectiveness in educational research. Retention and graduation rates are often compared over time…

Ostrow, Korinn; Donnelly, Chistopher; Heffernan, Neil – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
As adaptive tutoring systems grow increasingly popular for the completion of classwork and homework, it is crucial to assess the manner in which students are scored within these platforms. The majority of systems, including ASSISTments, return the binary correctness of a student's first attempt at solving each problem. Yet for many teachers,…

Holm, Jennifer; Kajander, Ann; Avoseh, Jimmy – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2016
This study investigated the effect of different aspects of mathematics knowledge for teaching on performance in upper elementary mathematics methods courses. In the Ontario (Canada) context, prospective teachers have been, until the 2015-2016 school year, able to obtain a Bachelor of Education (BEd) degree in as little as eight months after a…

Almuna Salgado, Felipe – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2016
This paper reports on a study that examines the effects of problem context on students' performance. The performance of 151 Year 10 students on six mathematical problems was compared with the performance on fifteen variants with more and less context familiarity (CF) and engagement (CE) across levels of context use (LCU). The latter explanatory…
