Gonzalo Martinez-Munoz; Miguel Angel Alvarez-Rodriguez; Estrella Pulido-Canabate – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2024
In this article, student video visualization profiles are analyzed with two objectives: 1) to identify difficult sections in videos and 2) to predict student performance based on their video visualization profiles. For identifying critical sections in videos two novel indicators are proposed. The first one is designed to measure the complexity of…

Xiao-Fan Lin; Seng Yue Wong; Wei Zhou; Weipeng Shen; Wenyi Li; Chin-Chung Tsai – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
Research evidence indicated that a specific type of augmented reality-assisted (AR-assisted) science learning design or support might not suit or be effective for all students because students' cognitive load might differ according to their experiences and individual characteristics. Thus, this study aimed to identify undergraduate students'…

Hrubes?, Jan; Tywoniak, Adam; Balouch, Martin; Chvi´la, Stanislav; Hrabovsky´, Jan – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Identification and further motivation of gifted students are widely discussed among the science education community. In the context of the educational system of the Czech Republic, competitions serve as one of the main ways to identify those gifted in precollege education. In this article, we report the foundation of a team-based open-book…

González-Forte, Juan Manuel; Fernández, Ceneida; Van Hoof, Jo; Van Dooren, Wim – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2022
Students often show difficulties in understanding rational numbers. Often, these are related to the natural number bias, that is, the tendency to apply the properties of natural numbers to rational number tasks. Although this phenomenon has received a lot of research interest over the last two decades, research on the existence of qualitatively…

Mustafic, Maida; Yu, Jing; Stadler, Matthias; Vainikainen, Mari-Pauliina; Bornstein, Marc H.; Putnick, Diane L.; Greiff, Samuel – Developmental Psychology, 2019
Complexity is one of the major demands of adolescents' future life as adults. To investigate adolescents' competence development in applying problem-solving strategies in complex environments, we conducted a 2-wave longitudinal study in a sample of Finnish adolescents (11-17 years old; N = 1,959 at Time 1 and N = 1,690 at Time 2, 3 years later).…

Wang, Haiyan; Yu, Haopeng – Language Acquisition: A Journal of Developmental Linguistics, 2023
This paper attempts to investigate the repetition of Relative Clauses (RCs) in Mandarin children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) (aged 4; 5 to 6; 0) and their typically developing (TD) peers. The results of a sentence repetition task indicate that Mandarin children with DLD perform significantly worse than both groups of TD children,…

Xu, Zhen; Dawson, Kara; Antonenko, Pavlo; Koh, Do Hyong; Wusylko, Christine – Journal of Online Learning Research, 2022
This convergent mixed method study investigates learner engagement during a blended, transmedia curriculum called CryptoComics, which is designed to teach 3rd-5th graders about cryptology and cybersecurity. Curriculum design is presented through the lens of four engagement facilitators: (1) anchoring the curriculum with a comic book, (2) blending…

Cranwell, Philippa B.; Whiteside, Karin L. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Language in chemistry is highly specialized, and for students, transitions in language complexity from high school to university can be extremely challenging. With an increasingly diverse cohort of students enrolled in UK chemistry degree programs, better understanding the linguistic challenges students face is becoming a greater pedagogical…

Schweinberger, Martin – Australian Review of Applied Linguistics, 2020
This study aims to exemplify how language teaching can benefit from learner corpus research (LCR). To this end, this study determines how L1 and L2 English speakers with diverse L1 backgrounds differ with respect to adjective amplification, based on the "International Corpus of Learner English" (ICLE) and the "Louvain Corpus of…

Premlatha, K. R.; Dharani, B.; Geetha, T. V. – Interactive Learning Environments, 2016
E-learning allows learners individually to learn "anywhere, anytime" and offers immediate access to specific information. However, learners have different behaviors, learning styles, attitudes, and aptitudes, which affect their learning process, and therefore learning environments need to adapt according to these differences, so as to…

Hjelmér, Carina; Rosvall, Per-Åke – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2017
This article analyses what students attending four Swedish upper secondary school programmes with different social class profiles tried and wanted to influence in relation to mathematics teachers' pedagogic practice and responses during the year 2008/2009. The theoretical framework is based on Bernstein's theories regarding power and control. The…

Melogno, Sergio; Pinto, Maria Antonietta; Levi, Gabriel – Child Language Teaching and Therapy, 2015
This study analyses the case of a gifted child (9;6 year) with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who had a particularly high verbal IQ (146) and a specific cognitive, linguistic, and metalinguistic profile. A description of some salient behavioral characteristics of the child is provided. A metalinguistic ability test assessing metagrammatical,…
