Downton, Ann; Livy, Sharyn – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
Whilst spatial reasoning skills have been found to predict mathematical achievement, little is known about how primary (elementary) students' conceptual understanding of three-dimensional objects develops. In this article, we report a qualitative study and the impact of rich learning experiences on 48 Years 3-6 students' geometric reasoning…

Wang, Lu – Journal of Research and Advances in Mathematics Education, 2021
Prior research showed a gender effect on spatial ability, math anxiety, and math achievement. Lacking, however, is a comprehensive study that tested the mediation effects of spatial ability and math anxiety between gender and math achievement in a sequential mediation model. To fill this gap, this pilot study tested two mediation relationships,…

Floris, Francesco; Marchisio, Marina; Roman, Fabio; Sacchet, Matteo; Rabellino, Sergio – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2022
Among the various kinds of learning analytics emerging especially in the latest decade, clicking patterns cover a prominent role, fostered by their success in analyzing several types of data concerning activity on the web. They can be defined as sets of clicks performed by users, in which every set is treated as the basic unit. Few research has…

Palanisamy, Sharmilla; Nor, Norjoharuddeen Bin Mohd – Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Sciences, 2021
Ability of solving mathematical non-routine problems among Malaysian students remains at a low level, therefore there is a need to introduce a new and effective teaching strategy for the teaching and learning of mathematical problem solving. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Mayer's problem solving Model with Visual Representation…

Vesa Mollakuqe; Elissa Mollakuqe – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2025
This study examines the impact of integrating GeoGebra software into teaching circle properties at the high school level, comparing it with traditional methods. Conducted over 8 weeks with 112 students aged 15-18, it included an experimental group using GeoGebra (56 students) and a control group with classical teaching methods (56 students). The…

Matt J. Cavanaugh – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Recent studies show that English learning students are a growing population within the United States school system. Language barriers have been shown to negatively influence reading scores as well as math scores, and math scores are a predictor of future academic success in many subject areas. This qualitative action research study demonstrates…

Mix, Kelly S.; Levine, Susan C.; Cheng, Yi-Ling; Stockton, Jerri DaSha; Bower, Corinne – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
A pretest-training-posttest design assessed whether training to improve spatial skills also improved mathematics performance in elementary-aged children. First grade students (mean age = 7 years, n = 134) and sixth grade students (mean age = 12 years, n = 124) completed training in 1 of 2 spatial skills--spatial visualization or form…

James R. Schwab; David E. Houchins – High School Journal, 2023
Historically, secondary students with Emotional/Behavioral Disorders (EBD) have made poor progress in mathematics putting them at-risk for school failure. One mathematic area that students with EBD have difficulties in is solving word problems. The purpose of this exploratory study was to examine the effects of schema-based instruction on…

Lowrie, Tom; Harris, Danielle; Logan, Tracy; Hegarty, Mary – Journal of Experimental Education, 2021
There is increasing evidence for the impact of spatial training on mathematics performance in early years of education, however little research has focused on secondary school environments, which are traditionally more discipline driven. In the present study, a large-scale classroom-based intervention saw the introduction of twelve hours of…

Fastame, Maria Chiara – School Psychology International, 2021
The relationships between visuo-spatial abilities and geometry performances in school-aged children were examined. A battery of tests assessing non-verbal reasoning, visuo-spatial mental imagery, and academic achievement in geometry (i.e., geometric knowledge and geometric problem-solving competencies) was presented to 162 8-9.5-year-old pupils…

Osman, Sharifah; Yang, Che Nurul Azieana Che; Abu, Mohd Salleh; Ismail, Norulhuda; Jambari, Hanifah; Kumar, Jeya Amantha – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2018
Previous studies revealed that many students cannot perform well when it comes to word problem-solving questions. There are various problem-solving strategies that can be applied to help students to overcome the problem. Visualisation techniques in learning have been used to help students enhance their conceptual understanding of the mathematical…
