Üce, Musa; Ceyhan, Ilknur – Journal of Education and Training Studies, 2019
Concepts can be examined in two groups as abstract and concrete ones. While concrete concepts are improved as a result of students' experiences, it is considerably challenging for students to perceive abstract concepts. Since chemistry includes abstract concepts largely, it is considered to be hard to comprehend as a class by students. In fact,…

Xu, Linlin – Teaching in Higher Education, 2023
New to the academy's 'publish or perish' game, doctoral students hold varied expectations of supervisors in relation to their publishing endeavours. These expectations can be unrealistic or contradictory to those of the supervisors and thus make supervision problematic. Set in a faculty of education in New Zealand, this study explores fantasies,…

Lokkila, Erno; Christopoulos, Athanasios; Laakso, Mikko-Jussi – Informatics in Education, 2023
Prior programming knowledge of students has a major impact on introductory programming courses. Those with prior experience often seem to breeze through the course. Those without prior experience see others breeze through the course and disengage from the material or drop out. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that novice student…

List, Alexandra – Discourse Processes: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2023
In this paper, I apply the Multiple Documents Text-Based Relevance Assessment and Content Extraction (MD-TRACE) model, to describe the types of cognitive processes that students engage to critically reason about social issues, as they are portrayed through mass media. In addition to examining such processes, I further consider the extent to which…

Thevenot, Catherine; Tazouti, Youssef; Billard, Catherine; Dewi, Jasinta; Fayol, Michel – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
Background: In several countries, children's math skills have been declining at an alarming rate in recent years and decades, and one of the explanations for this alarming situation is that children have difficulties in establishing the relations between arithmetical operations. Aim: In order to address this question, our goal was to determine the…

Jennifer Gennaco; Debra Kramlich – Across the Disciplines, 2023
Nursing students are required to demonstrate achievement of specific outcomes for program completion and approval for licensure. Mastery of clinical content is typically established through faculty-developed and standardized exams, which do not provide sufficient evidence of student acquisition of requisite knowledge and behaviors for professional…

Jana Nunvarova; Petra Poulova; Pavel Prazak – Journal on Efficiency and Responsibility in Education and Science, 2023
Digital storytelling (DST) is one of the alternative teaching methods and previous research shows its positive impact on students' motivation and learning outcomes, especially in humanities subjects. In vocational subjects such as economics, the effectiveness of this method is questionable. 856 respondents aged 15 to 19 from six business academies…

Charles E. Jakobsche – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Our goal as educators should be to help our students become well positioned to achieve future success. To develop effective strategies for accomplishing this objective, we must first understand the root causes of success. Thus, to best serve undergraduate students who are taking organic chemistry courses, we must understand the attributes that…

Juli-Anna Aerila; Merja Kauppinen; Teresa Cremin; Mari Siipola; Sarah Jane Mukherjee; Johanna Lähteelä – Australian Journal of Teacher Education, 2023
As the pedagogy of teachers depends partly on their earlier life experiences, investigating the prior reading practices of student teachers is crucial. This study investigated Finnish and English student teachers' (N = 353) own reading, the importance of their own reading to their reading pedagogy, and the relationship of these to teachers'…

Alexandria A. Viegut; Percival G. Matthews – Grantee Submission, 2023
Understanding fraction magnitudes is foundational for later math achievement. To represent a fraction "x/y," children are often taught to use "partitioning": break the whole into "y" parts, and shade in "x" parts. Past research has shown that partitioning on number lines supports children's fraction…

Understanding fraction magnitudes is foundational for later math achievement. To represent a fraction x/y, children are often taught to use "partitioning": Break the whole into y parts and shade in x parts. Past research has shown that partitioning on number lines supports children's fraction magnitude knowledge more than partitioning on…
