Thomas Mgonja; Francisco Robles – Journal of College Student Retention: Research, Theory & Practice, 2024
Completion of remedial mathematics has been identified as one of the keys to college success. However, completion rates in remedial mathematics have been low and are of much debate across America. This study leverages machine learning techniques in trying to predict and understand completion rates in remedial mathematics. The purpose of this study…

MacArthur, Kelly Rhea; Santo, Jonathan B. – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2023
This study explores three understudied facets--quadratic effects, change over time, and gender as a moderator--of the otherwise well-documented relationships between statistics anxiety and academic performance. Using pre- and post- course survey data among a sample of 111 undergraduate students in Social Statistics courses at a U.S. Midwestern…

Klint Kanopka; Susana Claro; Susanna Loeb; Martin West; Hans Fricke – AERA Open, 2024
Prior work has shown that students' self-reported levels on social-emotional measures predict achievement levels and gains, but we have little evidence on whether within-student changes in self-reports on social-emotional surveys are predictive of changes in theoretically related academic and behavioral outcomes. We use large-scale data from the…

Simsek, Mertkan – International Journal of Technology in Education, 2022
Considering the large volume of PISA data, it is expected that data mining will often be assisted in making PISA data more meaningful. Studies show that different dimensions of ICT may reveal different relationships for mathematics achievement. The purpose of this article is to evaluate the success of the decision tree classification algorithms in…

Hikmet Sevgin; Anil Kadir Eranil – International Journal of Psychology and Educational Studies, 2023
In this study, in line with TIMSS 2019 data, 8th grade students' school engagement in the Turkish education system and various variables in the field of science and mathematics, which are thought to be related to school engagement, were examined with the Random Forest method, a method amongst data mining methods. This research focuses on student…

Brinkley, Dawn Y.; Caughy, Margaret O'Brien; Owen, Margaret Tresch – Early Education and Development, 2023
This research tested a mediation model, examining whether individual differences in mothers' school readiness beliefs influenced home literacy practices and children's later academic achievement among African American (n = 114) and primarily Mexican origin Latina mothers (n = 164) and their children. Mothers of children ages 3-4 years reported…

Watts, Tyler W. – AERA Open, 2020
The current article reexamines the correlation between achievement test scores and earnings by providing new evidence on the association between academic skills and measures of adult earnings assessed when participants were in their 30s, 40s, and 50s. Results suggest that math and reading scores are strong predictors of economic attainment…

Kelly, Elizabeth Ann S. – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Using the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study Data (TIMSS) 2015 dataset, this study examines 30 different contextual indicators to determine significant predictors of girls' mathematics achievement globally. The study design employs three nested levels in the hierarchical linear model (individual, classroom, and nation) to…

Westover, Jacque Paxman – ProQuest LLC, 2021
In this dissertation, acceleration in developmental mathematics at Utah Valley University through compression of a 4-course sequence into a 2-course sequence was examined to determine the extent to which sequence length predicted student success outcomes, including completion of, pass/fail grades in, and re-enrollment into subsequent developmental…

Kelly McGinn; Laura Young; Alexandra Huyghe; Julie Booth – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Recent work has demonstrated that having students study worked examples and answer self-explanation prompts as part of their problem-solving practice improves learning on researcher-developed measures of mathematical proficiency. However, little work has been done to date to investigate whether these benefits translate to improvements on the types…

Shumway, Jessica F.; Reeder, Rachel C. – International Journal for Mathematics Teaching and Learning, 2021
There is a considerable body of research on children's number knowledge development, and in particular on children ages 4 years and older and who have some counting experience. Children in early care preschool settings (ages 2 and 3) and who are not yet experienced counters are an understudied population. We conducted a multiple-case study on five…

Edgar I. Sanchez – ACT Education Corp., 2024
This study offers a novel approach to evaluating the predictors of first-year grade point average (FYGPA) in college by using multiple imputation and dominance analysis to compare high school GPA (HSGPA), ACT® test score, and demographic factors. Unlike previous research that typically relied on single regression models, this study reveals more…
