Participants: Participants included 956 U.S. college students (M[subscript age] = 19.94, SD[subscript age] = 2.78; 75% females [n = 716], 24% males [n = 228], 41%…

Augmented reality (AR), where digital holograms are layered over the real world, is rapidly being applied to different educational domains, including mathematics education. However, little is known about how AR can be effectively designed for collaborative use. There are both practical and theory-based reasons to set up collaboration in AR in…

The validity of the screening tools used as a part of assigning students to tiers within the Three Tier framework is essential for its quality and success.
