Paul Caldarella; Ross A. A. Larsen; Leslie Williams; Howard P. Wills – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2023
Middle school teachers frequently struggle with positively managing student behavior. However, praise-to-reprimand ratios (PRRs) have received little research attention. PRRs studied in elementary school have been positively associated with improvements in on-task and prosocial behavior, but limited research has been conducted on optimal PRRs in…

Foster, Elizabeth – Learning Professional, 2018
The meta-analysis addressed three research questions: (1) What is the causal effect of teacher coaching programs on classroom instruction and student achievement?; (2) Are specific coaching program design elements associated with larger effects?; and (3) Do changes in teacher practice from coaching programs translate into improvements in student…

Costa, António; Salgado, José Miguel; Ferreira, Maria Eduarda – Universal Journal of Educational Research, 2018
This research seeks to develop a critical reflection that frames, characterizes and evaluates the homework as a teaching strategy in the curricular area of "Environment Study" in the Portuguese primary education. For that, we considered three dimensions: the type of methodology used; the number of homework assignments; the duration of…

Twyman, Janet S. – Center on Innovations in Learning, Temple University, 2018
This topic brief is one in a series on personalized learning prepared for Conversations with Innovators, 2018. Historically, the configuration of public education has been antithetical to variation for and across learners. The structure and process of today's educational system, having cut its teeth during the industrial revolution, emphasizes…

Fu, En; Gao, Qiufeng; Wei, Chuqian; Chen, Qianyi; Liu, Yijun – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
Smartphone use in learning settings is a common behaviour amongst college students. Building on the theory of consumerism, self-efficacy and addictive behaviours, the current study developed a three-component conceptual framework to understand college students' smartphone use in organizational as well as self-directed learning settings. One…

Smith, Morgan; Willison, LeAnna N. – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2021
STEM has one of the largest job fields, providing competitive salaries and opportunities for advancement. Despite this potential, enrollment in STEM majors is low and attrition at the collegiate level is high. This affects economic development and diversity within the scientific community. This warrants an analysis of the major selection process…

Rau, Martina A.; Herder, Tiffany – Grantee Submission, 2021
Abundant prior research has compared effects of physical and virtual manipulatives on students' conceptual learning. However, most prior research has been based on conceptual salience theory; that is, it has explained mode effects by the manipulative's capability to draw students' attention to conceptually relevant (visual or haptic) features.…

Tamar Kricheli-Katz; Tali Regev – npj Science of Learning, 2021
Research suggests that gendered languages are associated with gender inequality. However, as languages are embedded in cultures, evidence for causal effects are harder to provide. We contribute to this ongoing debate by exploring the relationship between gendered languages and the gender gap in mathematics achievements. We provide evidence for…

Ismael Sanz; J. D. Tena – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2021
One of the most obvious and not sufficiently well understood political decisions in education regards the optimal amount of instruction time required to improve academic performance. This paper considers an unexpected, exogenous regulatory change that reduced the school calendar of non-fee-paying schools (public and charter schools) in the Madrid…

Trakunphutthirak, Ruangsak; Lee, Vincent C. S. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
Educators in higher education institutes often use statistical results obtained from their online Learning Management System (LMS) dataset, which has limitations, to evaluate student academic performance. This study differs from the current body of literature by including an additional dataset that advances the knowledge about factors affecting…
