Maries, Alexandru; Brundage, Mary Jane; Singh, Chandralekha – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
The Conceptual Survey of Electricity and Magnetism (CSEM) is a multiple-choice survey that contains a variety of electricity and magnetism concepts from Coulomb's law to Faraday's law at the level of introductory physics used to help inform instructors of student mastery of those concepts. Prior studies suggest that many concepts on the survey are…

Jenny Yun-Chen Chan; Erin R. Ottmar; Ji-Eun Lee – Grantee Submission, 2022
We examined the influences of pre-solving pause time, algebraic knowledge, mathematics self-efficacy, and mathematics anxiety on middle-schoolers' strategy efficiency in an algebra learning game. We measured strategy efficiency using (a) the number of steps taken to complete a problem; (b) the proportion of problems completed on the initial…

Julia Eckhard; Marc Rodemer; Sascha Bernholt; Nicole Graulich – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Supporting students in building well-grounded explanations plays a crucial role in scientific practice. Research in organic chemistry education on students' mechanistic explanations, however, has revealed various challenges. When solving mechanistic tasks, students experience difficulties when (I) deriving implicit properties from structural…

Instructional Change and Student Outcomes within Collaborative Problem-Solving Learning Environments
James Oren – ProQuest LLC, 2022
More than 85% of federally funded research initiatives fail to produce significant positive results (Coalition for Evidence-Based Policy, 2013). Moreover, of the less than 15% that do yield positive results, none show replicability outside of their original setting (Pogrow, 2017; Kizilcec et al., 2020). Mixed results are present in even the most…

Setiyani, Setiyani; Fitriyani, Nur; Sagita, Laela – Journal of Research and Advances in Mathematics Education, 2020
The Industrial Revolution 4.0 on Education in Indonesia affects school activities rapidly. Teachers are no longer educated in classrooms only, but they can also utilize technology to conduct distance learning. One interactive application that can be used as a form of question exercise is Quizizz. Therefore, this research aims to:…

Xia, Jianping – Science Insights Education Frontiers, 2020
The teaching strategy based on the case study guide is based on the case study guided, with teachers as the mainstay, students as the main body, and teacher-student working together to complete the teaching tasks, which is in line with Chinese education characteristics of localized teaching strategies. This teaching strategy advocates coordinating…

Ültay, Neslihan; Aktas, Banu – Science Activities: Projects and Curriculum Ideas in STEM Classrooms, 2020
Although there are many examples of activities for using STEM in the preschool education, the number of studies on how these activities can be used in practice, how children can react, and what kind of products they can design are limited. The aim of this study is to implement the STEM activity called "How do I carry the eggs without…

Che, Megan S.; Utley, Juliana; Reeder, Stacy – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2020
Teachers are continually in search of tasks that balance the dual priorities of rigorous thinking and fluency development. These often-competing priorities are emphasized by national-level organizations as well as by state-level standards and assessments. The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) calls for school mathematics…
