This study is based on an exploratory teaching experiment, integrating the use of GeoGebra, carried out with Brazilian pre-service mathematics teachers that were attending a Pre-Calculus course. We focus on the contributions of GeoGebra to the learning that the students evidence about the 'instantaneous rate of change', in this teaching experiment…

Purpose: The goal of this study is to explore how content creators engage in critical data literacies on TikTok, a social media site that encourages the creation and dissemination of user-created, short-form videos. Critical data literacies encompass the ability to reason with, critique, control, and repurpose data for creative uses. Existing work…

Developing the ability to pronounce a word clearly is an essential component of oral communication. Hence, the present study aims to examine how the use of Quizlet, a digital flashcard tool, can contribute to enhancing the pronunciation abilities of 9th-grade Turkish EFL students at a state high school in Gaziantep. The study included a total of…

Studying students' performance in learning differentiability is essential since it requires them to perform proceptual thinking. This case study research investigates students' proceptual thinking outcomes in learning the differentiability concept using Desmos Classroom Activities (DCA) based on the Three Worlds of Mathematics (TWM) framework. In…

Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling requires an understanding of chemical, physiologic, and pharmacokinetic principles. Active learning with PBPK modeling software (GastroPlus) may be useful to teach these scientific principles while also teaching software operation. To examine this issue, a graduate-level course was designed…

Digital communicational technologies, such as WhatsApp, have been part of schools both before and during the pandemic. This article explores the normative emergence of being a student, a parent, and a teacher in the use of parents' WhatsApp groups. In Chile, this digital application is widely used by the population, and it is particularly…

This technical report describes the development of oral reading fluency passages for use in the CBMSkills assessment system. Seventeen passages were created for each of Grades 1 through 5. Passages were designed to target the fluency component of a developmental model of reading. All passages were written with the specification to use language and…

The Internet, and more specifically, social media applications, have been incorporated into the daily lives of many people in society. This transition has implications for what can be learned, what kind of learning is happening, and what in-person actions digital learning can lead to. This qualitative study reframed digital learning in an informal…

As vast amounts of data have become available in business in recent years, the demand for data scientists has been rising. The author of this article provides a tutorial on how one entry-level machine learning competition from Kaggle, an online community for data scientists, can be integrated into an undergraduate econometrics course as an…

This paper discusses the "Just Keep Solving" apps that are designed based on deliberate practice model for developing mathematical skills. Features of deliberate practice include well-defined goals involving areas of weakness as determined by a knowledgeable other such as a teacher. The integration of game design features provides a…

The purpose of this study was to determine if there were significant statistical differences between scores on constructed response and computer-scorable questions on an accelerated middle school math placement test in a large urban school district in Ohio, and to ensure that all students have an opportunity to take the test. Five questions on a…

Data literacy has become a much sought after skill by organizations as the importance of data driven decision making continues to rise in importance. This study explores the teaching of Tableau as a supplement to Excel to enhance the data literacy skills of students. Twenty-eight students taking an introductory course in Business Analytics and…

The meaning of most words in language depends on their context. Understanding how the human brain extracts contextualized meaning, and identifying where in the brain this takes place, remain important scientific challenges. But technological and computational advances in neuroscience and artificial intelligence now provide unprecedented…

This study investigates sixth-grade students' explorations of tessellations with Scratch through the mathematical aesthetics. For this purpose, the study analyzed the students' explorations by considering the roles of mathematical aesthetics identified by Sinclair (2004): generative, evaluative, and motivational role. Six middle-school students…

The analysis of spoken language has been integral to a breadth of research in social science and beyond. However, for analyses to occur with efficiency, language must be in the form of computer-readable text. Historically, the speech-to-text process has occurred manually using human transcriptionists. Automated speech recognition (ASR) is…
