Ersen, Zeynep Bahar; Ezentas, Ridvan; Altun, Murat – Online Submission, 2018
Geometry is one of the branches of mathematics that we use in many areas of our daily life, perhaps without noticing. For this reason, individuals are geometric thinkers not only in geometry classes; but also in different areas of life. In that case, it is necessary for the individual to acquire geometric habits of mind. The purpose of this study…

Li, Nan; Cohen, William W.; Koedinger, Kenneth R. – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2013
The order of problems presented to students is an important variable that affects learning effectiveness. Previous studies have shown that solving problems in a blocked order, in which all problems of one type are completed before the student is switched to the next problem type, results in less effective performance than does solving the problems…
