This study developed a teacher education program for teacher education students (TESs), incorporating collaborative inquiry and panoramic cameras to guide them in observing young students' learning performances during teaching, with the goals of enhancing instructional design capability for diagnosing student learning problems and investigating…

It is well-known that a key to promoting students' mathematics learning is to provide opportunities for problem solving and reasoning, but also that maintaining such opportunities in student-teacher interaction is challenging for teachers. In particular, teachers need support for identifying students' specific difficulties, in order to select…

This basic quantitative comparative descriptive study investigated the difference in reading comprehension growth between elementary and high school students who received the reading intervention Read 180 and the difference in growth rates based on the completion of Read 180 segments. Studies have indicated that growth levels for younger students…

In the world of education, there is a lack of research directly focused on students with educational disabilities. Further, this topic is largely untouched when analyzing academic achievement. The purpose of this research study was to search for a significant difference in English Language Arts achievement scores in high school students with IEPs…

Dyslexia impacts an estimated 5%-17% of children in the United States is the most prevalent disability in schools in the USA (D'Mello & Gabrieli, 2018; Johnston, 2019; Peltier et al., 2020). The problem addressed in this study was that general education teachers often feel unprepared to effectively support dyslexic learners in their classrooms…

Trauma can have deep impacts on children and the development of their frontal lobe. It is within the frontal lobe that executive functioning skills such as time management, work completion, and organization of materials are housed (De Bellis & Zisk, 2014; Kavanaugh et al., 2016). Symptoms outlined as executive functions are those that are also…

The main purpose of this study was to design and verify the quality of an assessment aimed at diagnosing scientific misconceptions among students enrolled in 10th-grade biology subjects. A sample consisted of N=200 students from schools under the administration of the Office of Secondary Educational Service 31, Nakhon Ratchasima province. We…

Providing diagnostic feedback about growth is crucial to formative decisions such as targeted remedial instructions or interventions. This article proposed a longitudinal higher-order diagnostic classification modeling approach for measuring growth. The new modeling approach is able to provide quantitative values of overall and individual growth…

The purpose of the study was to diagnose students' misconceptions of a number of basic astronomy concepts, namely, the Universe, the Sun, Comets and Constellations. The study was designed as a mixed method research and the sample was composed of a total of 110 seventh grade students. Data were collected through concept cartoons and interviews. In…

Early Warning Systems (EWS) and Early Warning Indictors (EWI) have recently emerged as an attractive domain for states and school districts interested in predicting student outcomes using data that schools already collect with the intention to better time and tailor interventions. However, current diagnostic measures used across the domain do not…

This research aims to construct and validate progress maps of digital technology for diagnosing the multidimensional mathematical proficiency (MP) in Number and Algebra for Grade 7 students utilizing the Construct Modeling Approach. Researchers employed four building blocks as follows. Firstly, researchers developed the progress maps as an…

Teachers' diagnostic competence is fundamental for supporting students' individual learning processes and must be fostered in teacher education. Following a design-based research approach, a learning environment is developed focusing on preservice physics teachers' diagnostic competence in diagnosing students' conceptions. A core element of the…

In this article, we ask the question of what it takes for targeted efforts to be reasonably successful in altering students' misconceptions and unproductive beliefs and ensuing myths about mathematics as a discipline and a school subject and about themselves in relation to mathematics, so as to pave the way for satisfactory learning. We attempt to…

This article explores an approach to tracking student progress in GCSE courses that yields useful diagnostic information. As well as obtaining an overall score, teachers can learn more about some of the generic characteristics that affect performance.

Intergroup comparison studies have shown that children with specific learning disorders hold lower self-perceptions regarding their abilities than their typically developing peers, especially in an academic setting. This small-scale study investigated the potential effect of diagnostic timing on competency perceptions within a sample of…
