When students learn, they activate, use, revise, and acquire knowledge. As such, knowledge is a fundamental asset. We advocate for an asset-based approach which capitalizes on students' knowledge through prompts and activities that invite learners to leverage what they already know. Considering knowledge as an asset means that educators must…

Amy Adair – Grantee Submission, 2024
Developing models, using mathematics, and constructing explanations are three practices essential for science inquiry learning according to education reform efforts, such as the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS Lead States, 2013). However, students struggle with these intersecting practices, especially when developing and interpreting…

Nathan, Mitchell J.; Alibali, Martha W. – Grantee Submission, 2021
We present an embodied theory of transfer as applied to mathematical ideas. Project-based learning (PBL) offers important sites for investigating transfer because students and teachers must track mathematical invariant relations that are embedded in complex settings where knowledge and information is distributed and extended across various…

Throughout this period, inquiry learning has been regularly criticized by scholars who favor direct instruction over inquiry learning. In this vein, Zhang, Kirschner, Cobern, and Sweller (2022) recently asserted that direct instruction is overall superior…
