Verostek, Mike; Griston, Molly; Botello, Jesús; Zwickl, Benjamin – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
Understanding how physicists solve problems can guide the development of methods that help students learn and improve at solving complex problems. Leveraging the framework of cognitive task analysis, we conducted semistructured interviews with theoretical physicists (N=11) to gain insight into the cognitive processes and skills that they use in…

AlGhamdi, Azza Abdullah – International Journal of Higher Education, 2022
In this study, we aimed to review scientific studies and research to present a view of artificial intelligence in education to achieve sustainable development in accordance with the foundations of the Kingdom's Vision 2030. We conducted a systematic review of previous literature by extrapolating and analyzing 17 previous studies published from…

Mamombe, Charles; Mathabathe, Kgadi C.; Gaigher, Estelle – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2022
This qualitative case study explored how exposure to Process-Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) improves 11th grade physical sciences learners' competency in solving stoichiometry problems. Two township schools of low socioeconomic status in Pretoria, South Africa, were conveniently and purposively sampled. Two classes (N = 48) composed of…

Lucas, Melissa A.; Anderson, Lindsey B.; Gray, Katlin – Communication Teacher, 2022
Incorporating civic engagement in the undergraduate curriculum has become a goal in higher education generally and the communication discipline specifically. Given this emerging priority, we offer a framework that integrates civic engagement in the communication classroom and meets students and instructors needs, experience, and goals. Drawing on…

Braithwaite, David W.; Sprague, Lauren; Siegler, Robert S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
To explain children's difficulties learning fraction arithmetic, Braithwaite et al. (2017) proposed FARRA, a theory of fraction arithmetic implemented as a computational model. The present study tested predictions of the theory in a new domain, decimal arithmetic, and investigated children's use of conceptual knowledge in that domain. Sixth and…

Gunn, AnnMarie Alberton; Bennett, Susan V.; Peterson, Barbara J. – Reading Teacher, 2022
Integration of social-emotional learning (SEL) content and vocabulary within read-alouds of multicultural literature provides powerful learning contexts for enhancing young children's social problem-solving, language development, and comprehension. Multicultural literature allows children to gain greater understanding of themselves and others…

Schraw, Gregory; Richmond, Aaron S. – Educational Research: Theory and Practice, 2022
The overarching goal of this review article is to discuss and provide evidence of ways that visual displays can be used to improve classroom thinking skills. Specifically, we attempt to first, provide a synthesis of the relationship among visual displays, visual literacy, and visual thinking. Second, we review the relatively scant educational…

Mubarak, Hamisi Ramadhan; Khan, Md. Shahadat Hossain – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
The growing need for good teaching practices in Engineering Education (Eng.Ed) that will improve the graduate's complex engineering problem-solving skills, has attracted a great deal of attention from researchers in recent years. This increasing interest demands that practitioners should examine their teaching practices from all corners,…

Hannah Smith; Avery H. Closser; Erin Ottmar; Jenny Yun-Chen Chan – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2022
Worked examples are effective learning tools for algebraic equation solving. However, they are typically presented in a static concise format, which only displays the major derivation steps in one static image. The current work explores how worked examples that vary in their extensiveness (i.e., detail) and degree of dynamic presentation (i.e.,…

Shannon L. W. Accettone; Cassandra DeFrancesco; Lori Van Belle; Joel Smith; Erin Giroux – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
The ability of students to perform quantitative analysis is a fundamental aspect of analytical chemistry courses and laboratories. In this laboratory experiment, students quantitatively analyze both liquid and solid samples through the use of internal standard calibration and ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. Using a problem-based approach to selecting their…

Jiang, Bo; Wu, Simin; Yin, Chengjiu; Zhang, Haifeng – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2020
Accurately tracing the state of learner knowledge contributes to providing high-quality intelligent support for computer-supported programming learning. However, knowledge tracing is difficult when learners have only had a few practice opportunities, which is often common in block-based programming. This article proposed two knowledge tracing…

Mahmood, Munir; Vale, Colleen – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2020
The visual method in this paper solves linear inequalities in one variable by considering them initially as two competing linear expressions, each of which is then expressed as a linear equation. When the solution of these two linear equations exist, it is viewed as a highlighted area or a line. These linear equations convey the intended visual…

Emhardt, Selina N.; Kok, Ellen M.; Jarodzka, Halszka; Brand-Gruwel, Saskia; Drumm, Christian; van Gog, Tamara – Cognitive Science, 2020
Domain experts regularly teach novice students how to perform a task. This often requires them to adjust their behavior to the less knowledgeable audience and, hence, to behave in a more didactic manner. Eye movement modeling examples (EMMEs) are a contemporary educational tool for displaying experts' (natural or didactic) problem-solving behavior…

Sass, Wanda; Boeve-de Pauw, Jelle; Olsson, Daniel; Gericke, Niklas; De Maeyer, Sven; Van Petegem, Peter – Journal of Environmental Education, 2020
The concept of Action Competence (AC) has been interpreted in different ways in various domains of the educational sciences. Given the rising scholarly attention to AC, these diverse interpretations are problematic because they hinder a common understanding of the concept among scholars. We unravel the interpretation of AC as a competence of…
