Lee, Youngjin – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2019
This study investigated whether clustering can identify different groups of students enrolled in a massive open online course (MOOC). This study applied self-organizing map and hierarchical clustering algorithms to the log files of a physics MOOC capturing how students solved weekly homework and quiz problems to identify clusters of students…

Koban, D.; Fukuzawa, M.; Slocum, R.; Fletcher, M.; Pleuss, J. – PRIMUS, 2020
We present an analysis on the differential effects of incentivizing homework in an introductory mathematics course at the United States Military Academy. We found that including homework as part of a student's overall course average (incentive) led to a significantly higher performance (achievement) on homework assignments. However, doing homework…

Walkington, Candace; Clinton, Virginia; Sparks, Anthony – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2019
Students' grasp of the non-mathematical language in a mathematics story problem--such as vocabulary and syntax--may have an important effect on their problem-solving, and this may be particularly true for students with weaker language skills. However, little experimental research has examined which individual language features influence students'…

Panaoura, Areti – International Journal of Technology in Education and Science, 2017
The present study aims to contribute on the understanding of the relationships between parental involvement during the school homework in mathematics with students' perseverance in problem solving ability in mathematics and their self regulatory performance in problem solving. The whole framework of the intervention program concentrated on…

Van Meter, Peggy N.; Firetto, Carla M.; Turns, Stephen R.; Litzinger, Thomas A.; Cameron, Chelsea E.; Shaw, Charlyn W. – Journal of Engineering Education, 2016
Background: We tested the effects of an intervention on the learning of introductory thermodynamics principles. This intervention, OEM-Thermo, is designed to prompt the cognitive operations of meaningful learning: organization, elaboration, and monitoring. We also sought evidence to show that execution of these operations was associated with…

Chelminski, Piotr – Journal of Teaching in International Business, 2017
In this article, the author proposes an innovative, exam-based homework grading method to facilitate both collaboration among students and individual accountability while learning a complex theory and applying it to solve a problem. Results from this novel approach to grading a "comparative advantage theory" homework assignment, using an…

Özcan, Zeynep Çigdem – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2016
Studies highlight that using appropriate strategies during problem solving is important to improve problem-solving skills and draw attention to the fact that using these skills is an important part of students' self-regulated learning ability. Studies on this matter view the self-regulated learning ability as key to improving problem-solving…

Powell, Amber – ProQuest LLC, 2017
Flipped instructional approaches are innovative instructional practices that focus on students reviewing the lecture materials outside of class and working on homework problems during class time. A growing body of research highlights the effectiveness of flipped instructional approaches in improving student performance in statistics courses.…

Su, Addison Y. S.; Huang, Chester S. J.; Yang, Stephen J. H.; Ding, T. J.; Hsieh, Y. Z. – Educational Technology & Society, 2015
In Taiwan elementary schools, Scratch programming has been taught for more than four years. Previous studies have shown that personal annotations is a useful learning method that improve learning performance. An annotation-based Scratch programming (ASP) system provides for the creation, share, and review of annotations and homework solutions in…

Else-Quest, Nicole M.; Hyde, Janet S.; Hejmadi, Ahalya – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2008
Mathematics is often thought of as a purely intellectual and unemotional activity. Recently, researchers have begun to question the validity of this approach, arguing that emotions and cognition are intertwined. The emotions expressed during mathematics work may be linked to mathematics achievement. We used behavioral measures to identify the…

Shields, Carolyn; Gredler, Margaret – Teaching of Psychology, 2003
Psychology students frequently have misconceptions of basic concepts in operant conditioning. Prior classroom observations revealed that most students defined positive reinforcement as reward and equated negative reinforcement and punishment. Students also labeled positive reinforcement as rewarding good behavior and negative reinforcement as…

Kotas, P. M.; Finck, J. E. – Journal of College Teaching & Learning, 2004
Using the Internet to administer homework allows us to determine if students change their homework habits during a semester and if this change results in an improvement in grades.

Stamper, John, Ed.; Pardos, Zachary, Ed.; Mavrikis, Manolis, Ed.; McLaren, Bruce M., Ed. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2014
The 7th International Conference on Education Data Mining held on July 4th-7th, 2014, at the Institute of Education, London, UK is the leading international forum for high-quality research that mines large data sets in order to answer educational research questions that shed light on the learning process. These data sets may come from the traces…
