Abdulrahman Alhayyan – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Teachers' questioning is a key practice that influences student learning, yet not all teachers' questioning is equally effective, and fine-grained analyses uncovering the details of teachers' questioning are scarce. My study investigated the types of questions asked by three in-service elementary school math teachers, the associated levels of…

Melissa Warr; Punya Mishra – Professional Development in Education, 2023
Scholars have called for considering professional learning (PL) through the lens of complexity. One lens for operating amidst complexity is design. Designers thrive in complexity because of the responsive nature of their work; a designer develops their practice in response to a particular situation, adapting as it changes. Thus, a design lens is…

Asadi, Ibrahim A.; Vaknin-Nusbaum, Vered; Taha, Haitham – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2023
We examined the role of morphological processing in the reading of inflections and derivations in Arabic, a morphologically-rich language, among 228 first-graders and 230 second-graders. All words were morphologically complex, with differences in number of morphemes and morphological transparency. Inflections consisted of three morphemes, with…

Anna Bloodworth; AnnaMarie Conner; Claire Miller; Lorraine Franco; Timothy Foutz; Roger B. Hill – Journal of Technology Education, 2023
Drawing on research in mathematics and science education that has supported student higher-level thinking in K-12 classrooms, we sought to classify the ways of thinking and reasoning supported by robotics coding tasks. As part of a larger project, we examined coding tasks implemented in elementary school classrooms and analyzed ways of thinking…

Skulmowski, Alexander – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
Digital learning increasingly makes use of realistic visualizations, although realism can be demanding for learners. Color coding is a popular way of helping learners understand visualizations and has been found to aid in learning with detailed visualizations. However, previous research has shown that color coding must not always be an effective…

Krebs, Rebecca; Rothstein, Björn; Roelle, Julian – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
Rubrics, which are designed to inform learners about assessment criteria and quality levels concerning a task assignment, are a widely used means to support learners in self-assessing their task performance. Usually, rubrics enhance task performance. Surprisingly, however, relatively little is known about the underlying mechanisms via which…

Linnenbrink-Garcia, Lisa – Discourse Processes: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2022
The articles in this special issue take an important step in beginning to test the PET framework. Together, these articles illustrate the importance of considering individual differences in attitudes and prior knowledge as well as differences in task demands when investigating the role of emotions in shaping cognitive processing while reading…

Levenson, Esther S. – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2022
When it comes to choosing tasks, values can have a significant impact. This study explores teachers' values as they choose one task from among three that they believe will have the most potential to occasion mathematical creativity in the classroom. Participants' analyses of each task, as well as their reasons for choosing one task as most…

Arsenault, Tessa L.; Powell, Sarah R. – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2022
Word-problem features such as text complexity, charts and graphs, position of the unknown, calculation complexity, irrelevant information, and schemas impact word-problem performance. We compared the word-problem performance of typically achieving (TA) students and students with mathematics difficulty (MD). First, we measured the word-problem…

Caton, Amy; Bradshaw-Ward, Danita; Kinshuk; Savenye, Wilhelmina – Journal of Learning for Development, 2022
As learners engage, test, and apply new subject knowledge, they often expend their cognitive capacity on the technological tools designed to capture their learning progress and outcomes. The energy and attention spent on these tools reduces their capacity to engage deeply with new learning concepts. Digital literacy skills require both cognitive…

Fisher, Rick; DeDiego, Amanda C.; Cooper, Kathryn E.; Frye, Kathleen; Larson, Michele D.; Duball, Chelsea – Across the Disciplines, 2022
In this study at a research-intensive public university, a group of eight instructors across a range of disciplines designed a writing assignment in which students (n=104) chose to write to one of three audiences--the teacher, a novice, or an adjacent expert. Students were then asked to complete a questionnaire that included open-ended questions…
