In 2024, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) administered the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) mathematics assessment to representative samples of fourth- and eighth-grade students in the nation, states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Department of Defense schools, and 26 participating large urban…

This study addresses the investment hypothesis of fluid on crystallised abilities onto academic achievement (Gf [right arrow] Gc [right arrow] "Achievement"), which might hold to a greater extent at earlier than at latter educational stages. We compared this prediction with two independent groups of secondary (n = 192, 113 females) and…

Digital learning games have been increasingly adopted in classrooms to facilitate learning and to promote learning outcomes. Contrary to common beliefs, many digital learning games can be more effective for female students than male students in terms of learning and affective outcomes. However, the in-game learning mechanisms that explain these…

Background: In professional contexts, engineers use engineering judgment to create mathematical models. Despite the importance of judgment in professional practice, the development and enactment of engineering judgment by engineering students are understudied. To better prepare students for engineering careers, there is a need to recognize and…

The 2015 revision of Japan's Course of Study marked a significant reform in moral education, promoted as moral education that encourages children to think and discuss. This study analyzes this reform, focusing on debates and challenges that emerged during the policy-making process led by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and…

This exploratory qualitative case study design aims to examine the mathematization process employed by pre-service mathematics teachers during instruction grounded in Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) within Plane Geometry. It was studied as this shall have a cascading effect on the teaching-learning of schools. Carried out at a teacher…

With the ability to predict learning behaviors, artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly involved in assessing the performance of problem solving. This study explored the potential of AI to predict whether mathematics problems could be solved based on eye movements and handwriting in a digital problem-solving environment. Sixty-one students…

In this paper the potentiality of meaning generation in a constructionist environment through an interplay between problem solving and problem posing is examined. The meaning-making process is examined by following how a Grade-10 student is engaged in an iterative cycle of reformulating and solving the initial problem within a Logo-based…

This article explores public employment service (PES) guidance practitioners' interpretations of and approaches to building working relationships with their clients in the context of different kinds of institutional expectations placed on client work. The study was conducted in the context of the recently reformed Finnish PES and focused on new…

Mathematics intervention research has established several effective interventions for building accuracy and fluency of math fact computation, as well as components that may improve student learning rates. While several evidence-based interventions promoting math fact accuracy and fluency exist, further work is needed to determine additional…

In the present study, we explored whether future teachers considered spatial skills to be built up slowly and incrementally (incremental view) or considered spatial skills to be an innate, static aptitude (entity view). We also examined whether these views were associated with personal spatial skills, confidence in spatial problem-solving, or…

Many students who experience difficulty with mathematics may also require behavioral support. We suggest educators create an appropriate scope and sequence for mathematics intervention by focusing on the critical mathematics content. Educators can then design the intervention with a common session structure. Finally, educators can embed and…

Successful math word-problem solving is difficult for some students. Getting the right answer involves students engaging correctly in an amalgamation of actions. Schema instruction is an instructional approach aimed at supporting students in identifying the underlying math problem structure to yield an appropriate solution plan. The focus of this…

Language skills play an important role in mathematics development. Students (7 to 10 years of age) learning school mathematics either in the same language used at home (first-language learners; n = 103) or in a different language (second-language learners; n = 57) participated in the study. Relations among cognitive skills (i.e., receptive…

This research is the reason for the research to contribute to the evaluation and solution of current problems related to social studies education from the eyes of social studies teachers, their opinions and solution suggestions, to guide today's problems. In this study, qualitative design was used as it is the ultimate goal to identify current and…
