Competency with mathematical modelling is increasingly important for career and informed and engaged participation in personal, civic and work life. In this paper we report on an aspect of a three-year longitudinal study that aimed to identify and describe enablers of mathematical modelling. Teacher interview data has been drawn upon to exemplify…

In contemporary feedback research, effective feedback does not depend on merely the characteristics of feedback but also on learners' ability to understand, manage and use the information. Known as feedback literacy, it refers to learners' social cognitive capacity, affective capacity and disposition prior to substantial engagement with feedback.…

Geographical practice power is a key competency essential for students' overall development. It is, therefore, important to understand its concepts, contexts, and content. Practical activities following scientific and operable principles in real geographical situations would enable students to unleash their potential across the curriculum. The…

Texts presenting novel numerical data can shift learners' attitudes and conceptions about controversial science topics.

The hierarchical model of achievement motivation assumes that individual characteristics predict achievement goals, which further predict achievement outcomes. One of the individual characteristics that may be particularly important in subjects that require abstract reasoning, such as mathematics, is need for cognition. Therefore, the aim of the…

During typical childhood interactions with screen-media, two features are prominent. First, input is dominated by audio-visual signals and second, these predominately provide children with ready-made images, potentially negating effortful mental imagery construction.

Recent work has probed the developmental mechanisms that promote fair sharing. This work investigated 2.5- to 5.5-year-olds' (N = 316; 52% female; 79% White; data collected 2016-2018) sharing behavior in relation to three cognitive correlates: number knowledge, working memory, and cognitive control. In contrast to working memory and cognitive…

This study aims at proposing an integrated model based on the technology acceptance model, the information system success model, cognitive load theory, and personal characteristics to predict students' continued intention to reuse Google Classroom in the context of a developing country. To achieve this, we conducted quantitative research,…
