Semih Asiret; Seçil Ömür Sünbül – International Journal of Psychology and Educational Studies, 2023
In this study, it was aimed to examine the effect of missing data in different patterns and sizes on test equating methods under the NEAT design for different factors. For this purpose, as part of this study, factors such as sample size, average difficulty level difference between the test forms, difference between the ability distribution,…

Ryan, Jonathon; Foster, Pauline; Fester, Anthea; Wang, Yi; Field, Jenny; Kearney, Celine; Yap, Jia Rong – Language Learning, 2023
This article responds to calls for greater inclusivity in second language acquisition research and, more specifically, to calls to explore further the impact of first language literacy on second language oracy (e.g., Tarone et al., 2009). We conducted a partial replication of Foster and Skehan's (1996) influential study of task complexity,…

Barker, Rick Don – ProQuest LLC, 2023
While some engineering students develop proper critical thinking skills, most engineering students do not. Engineers must critically think to tackle various problems on the job, but many schools do not properly instill critical thinking in engineering students. With engineers working on multiple tasks in little time, a knowledge of critical…

Mugruza-Vassallo, Carlos Andrés – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
In the present research the typical triangle on formative research was extended to a double triangle for an overall career programme (here expander/ compressor) and funnel proposal was explored in a single course (as a "fractal" method). Array processing and ElectroEncephaloGram (EEG) techniques have been incorporated into a Digital…

Yicong Zheng; Pengyuan Sun; Xiaonan L. Liu – npj Science of Learning, 2023
Numerous studies have shown that learned information practiced by testing is better retained than that practiced by restudying (the testing effect). However, results are inconsistent regarding the effect of working memory (WM) capacity on the testing effect. Here, we hypothesize that the effect of WM only emerges when task demands challenge WM…

Xiaodong Wei; Lei Wang; Lap-Kei Lee; Ruixue Liu – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Notwithstanding the growing advantages of incorporating Augmented Reality (AR) in science education, the pedagogical use of AR combined with Pedagogical Agents (PAs) remains underexplored. Additionally, few studies have examined the integration of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) into science education to create GAI-enhanced PAs (GPAs)…

Heru Pratomo; Nur Fitriyana; Antuni Wiyarsi; Marfuatun – Journal of Education and Learning (EduLearn), 2025
Students' lack of interest in chemistry becomes a significant issue in chemistry learning. This may be caused by the negative perception of students about their difficulties in learning chemistry. This study aims to explore views and causes of difficulties in learning chemistry from the perspective of secondary school students. This research was…

Kerstin Helker; Miguel Bruns; Isabelle M. M. J. Reymen; Jan D. Vermunt – Active Learning in Higher Education, 2025
Responding to calls for more future-oriented teaching and learning, an increasing number of institutions of higher education have recently implemented challenge-based learning (CBL). Through work on open-ended and real-life challenges, CBL aims to stimulate students to take the lead in their own learning, acquire and apply knowledge relevant for…

Ömür, Özlem – Educational Research and Reviews, 2022
In this study, the American pianist and composer Jeff Manookian's "Etudes for the Intermediate Pianist" method was examined. In this qualitative study, the descriptive research model was employed and the literature was scanned through document review. As a result of the examination, no study was found on Manookian's piano etudes. To that…

Menold, Natalja; Raykov, Tenko – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2022
The possible dependency of criterion validity on item formulation in a multicomponent measuring instrument is examined. The discussion is concerned with evaluation of the differences in criterion validity between two or more groups (populations/subpopulations) that have been administered instruments with items having differently formulated item…

Mariss, Antonia; Wenzel, Kristin; Grünberg, Chawwah; Reinhard, Marc-André – Social Psychology of Education: An International Journal, 2022
Previous work has shown that challenging learning strategies like "desirable difficulties" improve long-term learning. Nonetheless, because they might be regarded as strict and demanding learning strategies, they should not be perceived as positive by everyone. They should, however, fit conservative political attitudes since those are,…

Pelánek, Radek; Effenberger, Tomáš – Computer Science Education, 2022
Background and Context: Block-based programming is a popular approach to teaching introductory programming. Block-based programming often works in the context of microworlds, where students solve specific puzzles. It is used, for example, within the Hour of Code event, which targets millions of students. Objective: To identify design guidelines…

Michael Hermann Hahn – ProQuest LLC, 2022
As humans, we use language with ease and speed, solving the complex computational problem of processing form and meaning seemingly without effort. This dissertation studies how the properties of language enable us to achieve this, by investigating what is computationally difficult about language, and what is easy. We first investigate the…

Lanagan-Leitzel, Lyndsey K. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2021
Do lifeguards monitor events according to the level of danger they pose to the patron? This study examined this question by displaying 40 min of video of natural swimming activity to three lifeguards while an eye-tracker recorded their eye position. In a separate session, those same lifeguards viewed 100 short video clips of some of the incidents…

Moresi, Marco; Gomez, Marcos J.; Benotti, Luciana – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2021
Based on hundreds of thousands of hours of data about how students learn in massive open online courses, educational machine learning promises to help students who are learning to code. However, in most classrooms, students and assignments do not have enough historical data for feeding these data hungry algorithms. Previous work on predicting…
