Jinfa Cai; Benjamin Rott – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2024
Problem posing engages students in generating new problems based on given situations (including mathematical expressions or diagrams) or changing (i.e., reformulating) existing problems. Problem posing has been at the forefront of discussion over the past few decades. One of the important topics studied is the process of problem posing as…

Palmer, Russ; Choi, Ikseon – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2023
The goal of this article is to propose a framework for understanding the nature of "how people construct problems" by interacting with situations and subsequently to offer implications for instructional design and future research. We propose that people must interactively frame the components of a situation in order to establish the…

María Burgos; Nicolás Tizón-Escamilla; Jorhan Chaverri – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2025
The invention of problems is a fundamental competence that enhances the didactic-mathematical knowledge of mathematics teachers and therefore should be an objective in teacher training plans. In this paper, we revise different proposals for categorizing problem-creation activities and propose a theoretical model for problem posing that, based on…

Vázquez-Bernal, Bartolomé; Jiménez-Pérez, Roque – Science & Education, 2023
The objective of this work was the theoretical modeling of a construct based on teaching practice about the perception that pupils have of difficulties in problem solving (PS) in experimental sciences, specifically physics, to predict pupil performance in PS. The research was carried out with an incidental sample of second year of secondary…

Successful computer-based assessments for learning greatly rely on an effective learner modeling approach to analyze learner data and evaluate learner behaviors. In addition to explicit learning performance (i.e., product data), the process data logged by computer-based assessments provide a treasure trove of information about how learners solve…

Siripon Saenboonsong; Akarapon Poonsawad – Journal of Education and Learning, 2024
The aims of this study were to synthesize and evaluate the learning model in gamification environment together with cartoon animation media to promote students' creative problem-solving skills. This study was divided into three phases, (i) synthesized and evaluated the appropriateness of learning model (ii) developed cartoon animation and (iii)…

Cano-Moreno, Juan David; Arenas Reina, José Manuel; Sánchez Martínez, Francisca Victoria; Cabanellas Becerra, José María – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2022
One of the popular creativity methods to solve technical problems is the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving, (TRIZ), however, requires a considerable investment of time. A teaching methodology for a simplified version of TRIZ (TRIZ10) has been developed for reducing learning time and improving the creative process in solving technical problems.…

Zhang, Maoxin; Andersson, Björn – Educational Assessment, 2023
Process data from educational assessments enhance the understanding of how students answer cognitive items. However, effectively making use of these data is challenging. We propose an approach to identify solution patterns from operation sequences and response times by generating networks from process data and defining network features that…

Nadav Marco; Alik Palatnik – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2024
This study proposes a model of several dimensions through which products of teachers' context-based mathematics problem posing (PP) can be modified. The dimensions are Correctness, Authenticity, Task Assortment (consisting of Mathematical Diversity, Multiple Data Representations, Question-Answer Format, Precision-Approximation, and…

Shuanghong Shen; Qi Liu; Zhenya Huang; Yonghe Zheng; Minghao Yin; Minjuan Wang; Enhong Chen – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
Modern online education has the capacity to provide intelligent educational services by automatically analyzing substantial amounts of student behavioral data. Knowledge tracing (KT) is one of the fundamental tasks for student behavioral data analysis, aiming to monitor students' evolving knowledge state during their problem-solving process. In…

This study investigates the affective and performative effects of ludicization, i.e., the process of transforming the original contexts into immersive ludic experiences based on metaphorized desired behaviors and reflexive space, on language learning. The effects of ludicization are based on an integrated model involving multidimensional…

Verma, Shiv Kumar; Punekar, Ravi Mokashi – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2023
Nature-inspired designs/organic designs exhibit a very close resemblance with nature especially in terms of form and structure. Form giving for organic design is a special class of design problem that involves the use of inspiration and analogies from nature for creative problem-solving. There is insufficient research in understanding this…

Bhagya Munasinghe; Tim Bell; Anthony Robins – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2023
In learning to program and understanding how a programming language controls a computer, learners develop both insights and misconceptions whilst their mental models are gradually refined. It is important that the learner is able to distinguish the different elements and roles of a computer (compiler, interpreter, memory, etc.), which novice…

William R. Dardick; Jeffrey R. Harring – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2025
Simulation studies are the basic tools of quantitative methodologists used to obtain empirical solutions to statistical problems that may be impossible to derive through direct mathematical computations. The successful execution of many simulation studies relies on the accurate generation of correlated multivariate data that adhere to a particular…

Toukiloglou, Pavlos; Xinogalos, Stelios – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
Serious games are a growing field in academic research and they are considered an effective tool for education. Game-based learning invokes motivation and engagement in students resulting in effective instructional outcomes. An essential aspect of a serious game is the method of support for presenting the teaching material and providing feedback.…
