When learning from texts, it is not only important that learners remember and comprehend the content, but also that they monitor and accurately judge their memory and comprehension so as to efficiently regulate their learning. In the present experiment with 51 university students, we investigated to what extent headings within texts promote these…

This study aims to analyze the impact of intern physicians' social interaction during teamwork, their cognitive flexibility and academic achievement on clinical reasoning. The study, designed through sequential exploratory mixed method, was carried out with 20 intern physicians working in 4 teams. The process of how they approach to the case was…

We examine the long-standing claim that understanding relational correspondence is a general component of representational understanding. Two experiments with 175 preschool children located in Norwich, United Kingdom, examined the use of a scale model comparing performances on a "copy" task, measuring abstract spatial arrangement…

In learning during the current epidemic, students cannot meet face to face on campus, and learning geometry in universities is a dreadful lesson before the pandemic. Both at UPGRIS and other private universities so far, students are required to use a compass and ruler in making flat shapes and building spaces so they have to face to face with the…

Cognitive interviews play an important role in articulating the intended construct of educational assessments. This paper describes the iterative development of protocols for cognitive interviews with kindergarten through second-grade children to understand how their spatial reasoning skill development aligns with intended constructs. We describe…

The study aims to explore the factors affecting the digital transformation skills of primary school teachers in the southern border province of Vietnam. A descriptive study design was used to collect data from primary school teachers in An Giang province. The survey consists of 25 questions on a 5-level Likert scale designed to collect information…

The purpose of the study was to critically evaluate the updated Turkish writing curricula to decide whether they permit teachers to design higher intellectually demanding teaching sequences.

An analysis of the history of the evolution of education and its impact on economic development establishes the context and motivation for my primary research. The research inquiry is to determine if there is a measurable relationship between the three variables of training expenditures, private education spending, and academic publications with…

This research explores the link between achievement emotions and covariational reasoning, a type of mathematical reasoning involving two variables. The study employs a case study approach, focusing on a high school calculus student named Valeria, and develops a theoretical framework based on the control-value theory and levels of covariational…

The adaptive learning environment provides learning support that suits individual characteristics of students, and the student model of the adaptive learning environment is the key element to promote individualized learning. This paper provides a systematic overview of the existing student models, consequently showing that the Elo rating system…

Experiential learning continues to be a valued outcome of international educational mobility. However, underlying this proposition are unexamined or uncritical assumptions about the nature of learning, its relationship to experience, and how place mediates between the two. A fuller, more grounded, specification of experiential learning is more…

This article seeks to demonstrate the role and value of e-portfolios…

In this study, the visual estimation skills of fourth grade elementary school students based on their mathematical thinking processes were investigated. The research questions focus on understanding how students' mathematical thinking processes influence their visual estimation skills. A total of 445 students participated in the study. The…

To develop theories of how comprehenders extract the message from a linguistic stream, it is critical to understand how they conceptually represent referents. The experiments reported here focus on singular collective nouns (e.g., "committee," "team"), which introduce a single group into the discourse and test whether they…
