An analysis of 44 commercially available English as a foreign language (EFL) textbooks found that it is common for textbooks to present learners with exercises on phrasal verbs without first providing relevant input to help them. In these cases, learners are likely to resort to trial and error and are then expected to learn from feedback. The…

Lucangeli, Daniela; Fastame, Maria Chiara; Pedron, Martina; Porru, Annamaria; Duca, Valeria; Hitchcott, Paul Kenneth; Penna, Maria Pietronilla – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2019
Even in primary school, mathematics achievement depends upon the efficiency of cognitive, metacognitive and self-regulatory processes. Thus, for pupils to carry out a computation, such as a written calculation, metacognitive mechanisms play a crucial role, since children must employ self-regulation to assess the precision of their own thinking and…
