An Embodied Theory of Transfer of Mathematical Learning
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Direct linkDirect link
Nathan, Mitchell J.; Alibali, Martha W. – Grantee Submission, 2021
We present an embodied theory of transfer as applied to mathematical ideas. Project-based learning (PBL) offers important sites for investigating transfer because students and teachers must track mathematical invariant relations that are embedded in complex settings where knowledge and information is distributed and extended across various…

Approaching Multidimensional Forms of Knowledge through Personal Meaning Mapping in Science Integrating Teaching outside the Classroom
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Hartmeyer, Rikke; Bølling, Mads; Bentsen, Peter – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2017
Current research points to Personal Meaning Mapping (PMM) as a method useful in investigating students' prior and current science knowledge. However, studies investigating PMM as a method for exploring specific knowledge dimensions are lacking. Ensuring that students are able to access specific knowledge dimensions is important, especially in…

Connecting Learning: Brain-Based Strategies for Linking Prior Knowledge in the Library Media Center
Direct linkDirect link
Vanderbilt, Kathi L. – School Library Media Activities Monthly, 2005
The brain is a complex organ and learning is a complex process. While there is not complete agreement among researchers about brain-based learning and its direct connection to neuroscience, knowledge about the brain as well as the examination of cognitive psychology, anthropology, professional experience, and educational research can provide…

Are We Prepared?: An Assessment of Preservice Science Teacher Educators' Beliefs about Nature of Science
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Irez, Serhat – Science Education, 2006
Given the important role of science teacher educators in developing science teachers' understandings of nature of science (NOS), this study explores 15 Turkish "prospective" science teacher educators' beliefs about NOS in the context of teacher education reform in Turkey. A reflection-oriented qualitative approach was adopted in the…
