Hamerski, Paul C.; McPadden, Daryl; Caballero, Marcos D.; Irving, Paul W. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
High school science classrooms across the United States are answering calls to make computation a part of science learning. The problem is that there is little known about the barriers to learning that computation might bring to a science classroom or about how to help students overcome these challenges. This case study explores these challenges…

Berger, Jean-Louis; Karabenick, Stuart A. – Educational Assessment, 2016
Despite their significant contributions to research on self-regulated learning, those favoring online and trace approaches have questioned the use of self-report to assess learners' use of learning strategies. An important rejoinder to such criticisms consists of examining the validity of self-report items. The present study was designed to assess…

Jablansky, Sophie; Alexander, Patricia A.; Dumas, Denis; Compton, Vicki – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2016
Relational reasoning, the ability to discern meaningful patterns within a stream of information, is considered a critical capacity for students. However, little is known about how this ability is demonstrated by children of different ages in the context of discourse with a more knowledgeable other. Thus, this study sought to investigate the ways…
