Carmen Barquero-Ruiz; David Kirk – Curriculum Studies in Health and Physical Education, 2024
Building on the original work of Bunker and Thorpe and their Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) approach to physical education, there is now a proliferation of Game Based Approaches (GBA) in the research literature (Bunker & Thorpe, 1982, A model for the teaching of games in secondary schools. "Bulletin of Physical Education,"…

Buforn, Àngela; Llinares, Salvador; Fernández, Ceneida; Coles, Alf; Brown, Laurinda – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
The goal of this study is to characterize how pre-service teachers recognize students' reasoning, based in the unitizing process, when students solve ratio comparison problems and, how they consider the unitizing process as a Key Development Understanding to propose teaching decisions. Ninety-one pre-service primary teachers interpreted primary…

Lee, Sungeun; Choi, Bokgiu; Maia, Camilla Cavalcante; Park, Jaewan; Youm, Sang Hoon; Lee, Sangwon – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2022
With the growing complexity of design technology and the emergence of intelligent design assistance, architectural studio classes are facing a new pedagogical paradigm. The digital literacy of younger generations and availability of scientific simulation have the potential to transform the traditional master-apprentice model. In our experiment, we…

Palisse, Jennifer; King, Deborah; MacLean, Mark – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2021
Comparative judgement is a relatively new way of facilitating peer-assessment where students are shown pairs of other students' work and judge which of the two is better. Literature on example-based learning suggests that students should be able to learn from comparative judgement. We present the case of one student, Josie, whose understanding of…

Natalie Brezack; Wynnie Chan; Mingyu Feng – Grantee Submission, 2024
This paper explores how learning analytics data provided by a math problem-solving educational technology platform informed 5th and 6th grade teachers' instructional decisions around socioemotional learning (SEL). MathSpring is an educational technology tool that provides teachers with data on students' effort, progress, and emotions while…

Rodemer, Marc; Eckhard, Julia; Graulich, Nicole; Bernholt, Sascha – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Reaction mechanisms commonly used in organic chemistry are a great challenge for students in terms of understanding the representation and inferring the appropriate chemical concepts. In order to support the process of identifying and selecting chemical concepts, purposefully designed case comparisons are widely used. While these tasks place great…

Hwang, Gwo-Jen; Yang, Chin-Lan; Chou, Kuei-Ru; Chang, Ching-Yi – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2022
Educators have indicated the need to foster students' ability to solve problems by acquiring up-to-date knowledge as well as promoting their competences for making decisions from diverse perspectives based on the acquired knowledge. Traditional courses mainly use lecture-based instruction without providing sufficient opportunities for students to…

Samadi, Mohammad Amin; Cavazos, Jacqueline G.; Lin, Yiwen; Nixon, Nia – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2022
Collaborative problem solving (CPS) is a 21st-century skill essential for learning gains, workplace success, and tackling increasingly complicated global problems. Group diversity plays a vital role during collaborative activities, especially in a digital space. Although CPS involves dynamic communication behaviors, few studies have considered the…

Garbayo, Luciana S.; Harris, David M.; Fiore, Stephen M.; Robinson, Matthew; Kibble, Jonathan D. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2023
The purpose of this study was to 1) help novice students scaffold problem-solving and engage safely in the deliberate practice of diagnostic reasoning and medical decision-making in real time; 2) assess how accurately students gather and apply data in medical reasoning and treatment during high-fidelity patient simulations (HFPSs); 3) identify…

Morelock, John R.; Salado, Alejandro; Lakeh, Arash Baghaei; Richards, Trevor K. – Advances in Engineering Education, 2021
In undergraduate engineering education, students are often overexposed to problem-solving methods that are unrepresentative of how engineers solve problems in practice. For decision-making problems, in particular, students are commonly taught to compare alternative solutions using known and provided information. However, many real-world…

Shin, Dongjo – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
This study proposes a framework for investigating how preservice mathematics teachers notice students' reasoning about comparing distributions, including preservice teachers' attention to statistical elements used by students, interpretation of students' understanding, and decision about how to respond to students' statistical reasoning. The…

Mihalca, Loredana; Mengelkamp, Christoph – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
Both accurate monitoring and adequate control are crucial for effective self-regulation when learning from problem-solving tasks. Prior research has shown that self-regulated learning is especially harmful for low prior knowledge students, given their difficulties with accurate monitoring and control decisions. Although many studies have indicated…

Bao, Lei; Koenig, Kathleen; Xiao, Yang; Fritchman, Joseph; Zhou, Shaona; Chen, Cheng – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
Abilities in scientific thinking and reasoning have been emphasized as core areas of initiatives, such as the Next Generation Science Standards or the College Board Standards for College Success in Science, which focus on the skills the future will demand of today's students. Although there is rich literature on studies of how these abilities…

Oh, Hanna; Beck, Jeffrey M.; Zhu, Pingping; Sommer, Marc A.; Ferrari, Silvia; Egner, Tobias – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016
Much of our real-life decision making is bounded by uncertain information, limitations in cognitive resources, and a lack of time to allocate to the decision process. It is thought that humans overcome these limitations through "satisficing," fast but "good-enough" heuristic decision making that prioritizes some sources of…

Matthews, Wendy K.; Johnson, Daniel C. – Research and Issues in Music Education, 2019
In large music ensembles, directors make countless instructional decisions on a daily basis that indicate their learning priorities and guide student learning. In particular, expert music directors (i.e., those having earned a master's degree and/or National Board Certification) have advanced problem-solving strategies and effective means of…
