Statistics education researchers have been challenged to consider the theory of inferentialism in understanding concept formation in students. A critique of inferentialism is that no comprehensive method has been formulated to use the theory in practice. In this paper an inferentialism-based framework is presented that appears to be capable of…

The FATIH project was the largest K-12 level ed-tech integration project in Turkey. Its aim was to enhance the quality of education by improving technology in classrooms. To determine the outcome of the project a systematic literature review was carried out and the perspectives of in-service teachers were considered. The literature was searched…

The aim of the study informing this paper was to investigate pre-service teachers' (PSTs') approaches to task design, posing the research question: How do pre-service teachers respond when they are asked to design an exploratory task using GeoGebra for 8th grade students? The research study and this paper focus on the PSTs' design stories rather…

With growing demand for online courses, it is important to assess the efficacy of quality online virtual instruction. This study investigates the impact of Edmentum's Courseware Algebra I on student achievement using data on 1,205 ninth-grade students from a large urban school district in the Midwest during the 2020-2021 school year. Utilizing a…

Explanation of natural phenomena at one level of biological organisation almost always involves causes that are found at other levels. Although scientists thinking across levels find it easy to explain physiological phenomena, students often perceive this as a challenge. We developed a new graphic organiser called Zoom Map, which is a mode for…

On the one hand, mathematical software is ubiquitous in mathematics education. On the other hand, word problems are an important part of the curriculum, and they often require modelling skills. This is especially true with optimisation and extrema problems proposed to high school and undergraduate students. We propose two activities around extrema…

ChatGPT has become a significant topic of interest in the field of education, prompting of the potential applications of such technology. The utilization of ChatGPT may facilitate the fostering of 21st century skills, such as computational thinking (CT) and technology, which could subsequently provide a means of offering students personalized…

This study designed and implemented a personal learning environment platform for spoken English teaching in a junior high school in China to improve students' spoken English narrative competence. Altogether, 83 junior high school year one students took part in this study. The participants were divided into experimental and control classes for the…

This paper describes outcomes from a project conducted at a small US university where 23 secondary school mathematics teachers participated in the study. Based on sketches created in a dynamic geometry software (DGS) and written responses to an assignment related to developing the trapezoid area formula, we explored how teachers used DGS when…

This paper contains information on a study which investigated the use of GeoGebra software in teaching and learning circle geometry enhancing Grade 11 learners' academic achievement in South Africa. The study employed a quantitative methodological research design that included non-equivalent (pre-test and post-test) quasi-experimental research.…

This study aims to develop a predictive model for predicting gifted students' engagement levels and to investigate the features that are important in such predictions. Features reflecting students' emotions, social-emotional learning skills, learning approaches and video-watching behaviours were used in the prediction models. The study group…

This quasi-experimental study aims to compare the effects of using combinations of written text, animation and narration in multimedia courseware. 114 sixth grade students assigned in three conditions were participated in the study. Three versions of the courseware with combinations of animation, text and narration were developed taking modality…

Learning through mobile applications has become more relevant as mobile tools have evolved. The COVID-19 outbreak that spread across the globe in 2019 promoted to a brief period of distance learning. The purpose of the study was to investigate how the students' perceptions of distance learning were affected by the use of a mobile application…

I explore students' discourses in small groups working on mathematical problems using GeoGebra, focusing on the Cartesian connection between algebra and geometry. Specifically, the interest lies in what is internally persuasive for students in upper-secondary school (11th grade) with histories of low attainment. Three problem-solving episodes are…

Background Study: The effects of the flipped classroom (FC) on students' academic performance remain ambiguous, and the use of pre-class videos may be one of the main factors hindering students' progress. A software package called GeoGebra has been proposed as a substitute for pre-class videos to aid students' learning. Objective: This study…
