Despite the naïve intuition that individuals' confidence in their future memory performance should increase with longer self-paced study time, it is commonly observed that the relation between invested study time and memory predictions (i.e., judgments of learning (JOLs)) is negative. This negative relation has been suggested to reflect use of the…

Dave Hewitt – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2024
The author has been influenced throughout his time in mathematics education by the work of Caleb Gattegno. Gattegno made extensive use of the word awareness whereas much educational literature from a psychological perspective talks about memory (for example, Justicia-Galiano, MartÌn-Puga, Linares & Pelegrina, 2017). This has, amongst other…

Though verbal rehearsal is a frequently endorsed strategy for remembering short lists among adults, there is ambiguity around when children deploy it, and what circumstantial factors encourage them to rehearse. We recoded data from a recent multilab replication of a serial picture memory task in which children were observed for evidence of…

Yi Zou; Xinyu Xue; Lizhen Jin; Xiao Huang; Yanbing Li – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
Developing a deeper understanding of scientific concepts is one of the primary goals of science education. To improve students' conceptual understanding, it is necessary to explore the major characteristics of their learning process. Informed by previous work on conceptual understanding, this study focuses on the concept of evaporation, exploring…

Kelly Boden – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Instruction facilitating the abstraction and transfer processes necessary for deep conceptual understanding is notoriously difficult. Individual differences in learning strategies are one possible explanation for variation in transfer outcomes. Prior work has shown that rule-abstraction learning strategies facilitate knowledge transfer better than…

Kexin Qin; Yehui Wang – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2025
Homework is a self-regulated activity that constitutes a large proportion of learning time. In mathematics, how long is the optimal homework time for achievement development and how to improve homework time efficiency have long been questions. The study examined how mathematics homework time was related to mathematics achievement among Chinese…

Mixed-methods research is employed to investigate the implementation of the Stanislavski system in the study of Thai court drama. This study investigates the successful application of the Stanislavski method in Thai Court Theater, focusing on its role in enabling actors to portray emotions with accuracy and conviction. Research methods encompass…

West, John T.; Mulligan, Neil W. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
The majority of research on metamemory focuses on retrospective memory: memory for past events. Prospective memory, in contrast, refers to the process of remembering to carry out intentions in the future. Despite claims that metacognition is essential to prospective remembering, it is unclear whether the metamemorial effects that researchers have…

Song, Gang; Fan, Li – Higher Education Studies, 2022
This study investigates the capacity of elementary-level Chinese second language learners to memorize serial verb sentences based on the results of a questionnaire. Our findings show that adult second language learners employ the concept of temporal sequence in language learning, consciously or unconsciously, whether or not the chronological…

Lola Geraldes Xavier – Language Teaching Research Quarterly, 2024
This text critically examines traditional methodologies for teaching grammar in the context of Portuguese as a Foreign Language (PFL). It proposes an alternative, eclectic approach, which can be used in any foreign language. Drawing on evidence from research and pedagogical practices, it highlights areas for improvement in current approaches, such…

Colliot, Tiphaine; Jamet, Éric – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
The present study was intended to deepen current knowledge about the impact of graphic organizers (GOs) on students' learning in a computer-based learning environment, by evaluating the effects of successive versus simultaneous presentation of a GO and an explanatory text. Based on the previous studies, we hypothesized that simultaneous display of…

da Silva, Renan Amorim; de Vasconcelos, Flávia Cristina Gomes Catunda – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
This paper presents an analysis of cognitive skill levels expressed in high school students' performance using laboratory simulations. We address lower-order cognitive skills (LOCS) and higher-order cognitive skills (HOCS) situations in a virtual simulation activity, in order to identify and underly further discussions about students' reasoning…

Hui, Luotong; Bruin, Anique B. H.; Donkers, Jeroen; Merriënboer, Jeroen J. G. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2022
Although retrieval practice is a more effective learning strategy than restudy, students oftentimes prefer the latter. Previous studies have investigated this suboptimal decision at strategy level. The present study, however, focused on the learning task level: How perceived mental effort and perceived learning during task performance influence…

Anna Jakobsson; Jenny Loberg; Maria Kjörk – International Journal of Science Education, 2024
Retrieval-based learning, using tests for content review, frequently proves more effective for knowledge retention compared to alternative methods. Extensive research has explored this with older students, often in contrast to more passive techniques like rereading or note rewriting, typically focusing on vocabulary content, in non-classroom…

Van Hoey, Thomas; Thompson, Arthur L.; Do, Youngah; Dingemanse, Mark – Cognitive Science, 2023
Iconicity, or the resemblance between form and meaning, is often ascribed to a special status and contrasted with default assumptions of arbitrariness in spoken language. But does iconicity in spoken language have a special status when it comes to learnability? A simple way to gauge learnability is to see how well something is retrieved from…
