Julie Y. L. Chow; Jessica C. Lee; Peter F. Lovibond – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2024
People often rely on the covariation between events to infer causality. However, covariation between cues and outcomes may change over time. In the associative learning literature, extinction provides a model to study updating of causal beliefs when a previously established relationship no longer holds. Prediction error theories can explain both…

Morali, Hasibe Sevgi; Filiz, Ahsen – Journal of Pedagogical Research, 2023
Proof facilitates conceptual and meaningful learning in mathematics education rather than rote memorization. In this study, incorrect theorems and proofs are used to assess secondary school pre-service mathematics teachers' proof assessing skills. Using the case study method, the study is conducted on preservice mathematics teachers studying at…

Gorgun, Guher; Yildirim-Erbasli, Seyma N.; Epp, Carrie Demmans – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2022
The need to identify student cognitive engagement in online-learning settings has increased with our use of online learning approaches because engagement plays an important role in ensuring student success in these environments. Engaged students are more likely to complete online courses successfully, but this setting makes it more difficult for…

Abu-Ghazalah, Rashid M.; Dubins, David N.; Poon, Gregory M. K. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2023
Multiple choice results are inherently probabilistic outcomes, as correct responses reflect a combination of knowledge and guessing, while incorrect responses additionally reflect blunder, a confidently committed mistake. To objectively resolve knowledge from responses in an MC test structure, we evaluated probabilistic models that explicitly…

Marchisio, Marina; Roman, Fabio; Sacchet, Matteo – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2021
The role of mathematical modelling pertains several disciplines, both STEM and non-STEM, and various fields: education, academy, work, everyday and social life. Despite its importance, it is not uncommon to see university students facing difficulties with the use of Mathematics to create models, even when mathematical entities that play a role in…

Çibik, Naz Fulya; Boz-Yaman, Burçak – Science Activities: Projects and Curriculum Ideas in STEM Classrooms, 2022
The purpose of this paper is to integrate mathematical modeling and ecology by presenting an activity involving an authentic environmental problem, which is called "Pine Processionary Caterpillars Invasion." Adopting Mathematical Modeling and Education for Climate Action (EfCA) approaches, it was aimed to encourage pre-service teachers…

Robitzsch, Alexander; Lüdtke, Oliver – Large-scale Assessments in Education, 2023
One major aim of international large-scale assessments (ILSA) like PISA is to monitor changes in student performance over time. To accomplish this task, a set of common items (i.e., link items) is repeatedly administered in each assessment. Linking methods based on item response theory (IRT) models are used to align the results from the different…

Baysal, Esra; Sevinc, Serife – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
This study investigated the role of the bar model method, a significant aspect of the Singapore mathematics curriculum, in the remediation of seventh-grade students' errors on algebra word problems. To accomplish this purpose, we first assessed students' errors on a written test involving algebra problems and identified ten students based on the…

Savi, Alexander O.; Deonovic, Benjamin E.; Bolsinova, Maria; van der Maas, Han L. J.; Maris, Gunter K. J. – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2021
In learning, errors are ubiquitous and inevitable. As these errors may signal otherwise latent cognitive processes, tutors--and students alike--can greatly benefit from the information they provide. In this paper, we introduce and evaluate the Systematic Error Tracing (SET) model that identifies the possible causes of systematically observed…

Pla-Castells, Marta; Melchor, Carmen; Chaparro, Gisela – Education Sciences, 2021
This work describes how the combination of the mistakes committed by a group of pre-service teachers when solving a Fermi problem, with the representation of the temporal analysis of their resolutions, can offer more in-depth information about their conceptual misconceptions regarding mathematical and modelling concepts. The combined…

Segura, Carlos; Ferrando, Irene – Education Sciences, 2021
Fermi problems are useful for introducing modelling in primary school classrooms, although teachers' difficulties in problem solving may hinder their successful implementation. These difficulties are associated with the modelling process, but also with the estimation and measurement skills required by Fermi problems. In this work, a specific…

Lupker, Stephen J.; Spinelli, Giacomo; Davis, Colin J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
A word's exterior letters, particularly its initial letter, appear to have a special status when reading. Therefore, most orthographic coding models incorporate assumptions giving initial letters and, in some cases, final letters, enhanced importance during the orthographic coding process. In the present article, 3 masked priming experiments were…

Damar Rais; Zhao Xuezhi – Journal on Mathematics Education, 2024
Python programming is widely employed in educational institutions worldwide. Within the "Merdeka Belajar" curriculum context, this programming is recognized as a suitable vehicle for mathematics instruction, significantly influencing students' motivation and learning outcomes, particularly following periods of educational hiatus. This…

E-Learning Model for Training of Drivers in Traffic Based on Frequent Mistakes on the Practical Exam
Jovanov, Goran; Vasiljevic, Jovica; Jovanov, Nemanja; Antic, Dejan; Vranjes, Djordje – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2019
This paper presents the previous experience in the licensing process of the examiners at the driving test in the Republic of Serbia, with an analysis of the way in which the examiners assess the polygonal actions. The analysis covers the most common mistakes that have been registered with the examiners as well as in the candidates in the training.…

Safadi, Rafi' – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
Troubleshooting activities require students to diagnose teacher-crafted erroneous examples by detecting and explaining the conceptual errors driving them. In a previous study, the author tested whether diagnosing erroneous examples and then scoring them using a rubric that contained the related worked examples, a step-by-step strategy to solve a…
