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…

Maurer-Smolder, Christina; Hunt, Susan; Parker, Shane Bruce – Australian Journal of Learning Difficulties, 2021
Research suggests that tertiary students with dyslexia are less likely to achieve high or passing marks in their studies than students without dyslexia. The aim of this investigation was to discover the nature of barriers faced by students with dyslexia at an Australian regional university where two thirds of the overall population had a distance…

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…

Kennedy Terry, Kristen M. – Modern Language Journal, 2022
This longitudinal study of 17 American learners of French lies at the intersection of 2 complementary fields of inquiry in second language acquisition (SLA): language variation and change (LVC) and language acquisition during study abroad. Studies in LVC examine the nature and use of linguistic features that have more than 1 possible realization…

D'Eon, Marcel; Yasinian, Maryam – Higher Education Research and Development, 2022
In this article, we propose a new model of student workload. We conducted an extensive literature review of student workload, its impact on students' lives, factors influencing student workload, objective and subjective measurements. The previous conceptualizations of student workload conflate student work and course workload, two related but…

Dooley, Laura; Makasis, Nikolas – Education Sciences, 2020
The flipped classroom has been increasingly employed as a pedagogical strategy in the higher education classroom. This approach commonly involves pre-class learning activities that are delivered online through learning management systems that collect learning analytics data on student access patterns. This study sought to utilize learning…

Sultanik, Alyssa G. – School Library Research, 2020
Genrefying a library's fiction collection is a common practice in school libraries. However, there is little research to explain the benefits or drawbacks of this practice. Using a within-subjects/time-series action research design, this study was conducted to understand more about the impact of genrefying the fiction collection in a single…

Luna, Yvonne M.; Winters, Stephanie A. – Journal of Curriculum and Teaching, 2020
The blended and flipped class is often considered the most student-centered type of learning as it promotes deep and life-long learning. Using qualitative and quantitative data from anonymous surveys completed by students in two different introductory classes, one blended and flipped (N=56) and the other traditional lecture (N=74) taught by the…

Ninci, Jennifer; Neely, Leslie C.; Burke, Mack D.; Rispoli, Mandy; Vannest, Kimberly J.; Willson, Victor; Ulloa, Paula – Remedial and Special Education, 2020
Restricted interests of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can act as a barrier to learning important life skills. Embedding the interests of individuals into their learning environment can act to establish motivation to participate. A meta-analysis of 20 single-case studies on embedding interests of individuals with ASD was conducted…

Tacoma, Sietske; Heeren, Bastiaan; Jeuring, Johan; Drijvers, Paul – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2020
Hypothesis testing involves a complex stepwise procedure that is challenging for many students in introductory university statistics courses. In this paper we assess how feedback from an Intelligent Tutoring System can address the logic of hypothesis testing and whether such feedback contributes to first-year social sciences students' proficiency…
