Bhatia, Parnika; Le Diagon, Sarah; Langlois, Emma; William, Melissa; Prado, Jérôme; Gardes, Marie-Line – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Digital game-based learning is gaining increased attention from both researchers and educators for improving mathematics instruction. However, the evidence for game-based learning is mixed and research with rigorous research design and analyses are limited. Objective: Here, in a pre-registered randomized controlled study, we…

Kinnear, George – International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, 2021
In this paper, I investigate whether two-stage exams aid learning in undergraduate mathematics, as measured by students' performance on subsequent exams. In a two-stage exam, students complete the exam individually then form into groups to solve it again, with grades based on a combination of the two stages. Previous research in other disciplines…

Stepan Paul; Dusty Grundmeier; Deborah Moore-Russo – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2024
In this university study, sections of an integral calculus course were randomly assigned to either a control or treatment group for a lesson on volumes of revolution. Both groups were given similar collaborative tasks, but only the students in the treatment group were given access to a set of 3D manipulatives. Pre- and post-assessments were…

Deringol, Yasemin; Zengin, Ayse Nihan; Ozturk, Sibel – International Online Journal of Primary Education, 2021
The aim of this research was to examine the effects of mathematics activities prepared by using Jigsaw II technique on fourth grade students. A mixed design was used, consisting of a combination of pre-test post-test without control group a Quasi-experimental design and qualitative data. The research's study group consisted of 21 fourth-grade…

Cody, Christa; Maniktala, Mehak; Lytle, Nicholas; Chi, Min; Barnes, Tiffany – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2022
Research has shown assistance can provide many benefits to novices lacking the mental models needed for problem solving in a new domain. However, varying approaches to assistance, such as subgoals and next-step hints, have been implemented with mixed results. Next-Step hints are common in data-driven tutors due to their straightforward generation…

Hannah Smith; Avery H. Closser; Erin Ottmar; Jenny Yun-Chen Chan – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2022
Worked examples are effective learning tools for algebraic equation solving. However, they are typically presented in a static concise format, which only displays the major derivation steps in one static image. The current work explores how worked examples that vary in their extensiveness (i.e., detail) and degree of dynamic presentation (i.e.,…

Wulandari, Ika Putri; Rochmad; Sugianto – Anatolian Journal of Education, 2020
The goals of learning mathematics are to develop thinking skills. But the results showed that critical thinking ability are still low and the lack of self confidence of students. Therefore we need a supportive learning, alternative learning is DAPIC (Define, Assess, Plan, Implement, and Communicate) Problem Solving with Realistic Mathematics…

Miller-Cotto, Dana; Auxter, Abbey E. – Educational Psychology, 2021
Faded worked examples have been used to promote problem solving performance, such as mathematics performance in many laboratory studies and short-term classroom studies. However, few studies have examined the ways educators may use fading in their own classroom on more accessible platforms that do not require programming experience. Further, few…

Yaftian, Narges; Barghamadi, Saeid – Journal of Research and Advances in Mathematics Education, 2022
In Iran and many other parts of the world, teaching and learning mathematics has confronted students and teachers with many challenges such as lack of motivation and increased anxiety. Thus, the current situation should be changed and shifted to active methods. One of the active methods is teaching with the help of multimedia. The purpose of this…

Tinley, Tracey – Educational Leadership, 2018
Pre-assessments at the start of teaching new content yielded information on what her students knew and might need, this math teacher found, but led many students to get nervous at a unit's beginning. To gauge students' understandings about math in a more inviting, stress-free way, she simply gave them drawings of protractors and asked "What…
