Background/Objective. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a multisensory approach based on the CRA framework in enhancing geometric thinking skills among fourth-grade students with learning difficulties in mathematics. It examined the relationship between sense preferences and performance and investigated how interactions among those…

This study addresses the investment hypothesis of fluid on crystallised abilities onto academic achievement (Gf [right arrow] Gc [right arrow] "Achievement"), which might hold to a greater extent at earlier than at latter educational stages. We compared this prediction with two independent groups of secondary (n = 192, 113 females) and…

Early school adjustment is an important process for children with autism spectrum disorder, as it influences not only their academic success but also the development of social communication and interaction skills. Several factors influence school adjustment, but the quality of the teacher-child relationship plays a decisive role. Therefore, the…

This study aims to reveal the extent of the negative effects of technology use in children and adolescents, such as cyberbullying, problematic internet use, and difficulties with emotional regulation. It also seeks to determine whether these issues show significant differences based on gender and to test whether emotional regulation difficulties…

Digital learning games have been increasingly adopted in classrooms to facilitate learning and to promote learning outcomes. Contrary to common beliefs, many digital learning games can be more effective for female students than male students in terms of learning and affective outcomes. However, the in-game learning mechanisms that explain these…

Background: In professional contexts, engineers use engineering judgment to create mathematical models. Despite the importance of judgment in professional practice, the development and enactment of engineering judgment by engineering students are understudied. To better prepare students for engineering careers, there is a need to recognize and…

The 2015 revision of Japan's Course of Study marked a significant reform in moral education, promoted as moral education that encourages children to think and discuss. This study analyzes this reform, focusing on debates and challenges that emerged during the policy-making process led by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and…

This exploratory qualitative case study design aims to examine the mathematization process employed by pre-service mathematics teachers during instruction grounded in Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) within Plane Geometry. It was studied as this shall have a cascading effect on the teaching-learning of schools. Carried out at a teacher…

With the ability to predict learning behaviors, artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly involved in assessing the performance of problem solving. This study explored the potential of AI to predict whether mathematics problems could be solved based on eye movements and handwriting in a digital problem-solving environment. Sixty-one students…

In this paper the potentiality of meaning generation in a constructionist environment through an interplay between problem solving and problem posing is examined. The meaning-making process is examined by following how a Grade-10 student is engaged in an iterative cycle of reformulating and solving the initial problem within a Logo-based…

The current study focuses on the role of classroom self-regulation in the links between parent-child conflict and learning problems, as well as the potential moderating role of teacher-child closeness among preschool children in China. Participants were 208 children aged 3-6 years old (110 boys, 52.9%, M[subscript age] = 58.96 months, SD = 5.21)…

This article explores public employment service (PES) guidance practitioners' interpretations of and approaches to building working relationships with their clients in the context of different kinds of institutional expectations placed on client work. The study was conducted in the context of the recently reformed Finnish PES and focused on new…

Mathematics intervention research has established several effective interventions for building accuracy and fluency of math fact computation, as well as components that may improve student learning rates. While several evidence-based interventions promoting math fact accuracy and fluency exist, further work is needed to determine additional…

In the present study, we explored whether future teachers considered spatial skills to be built up slowly and incrementally (incremental view) or considered spatial skills to be an innate, static aptitude (entity view). We also examined whether these views were associated with personal spatial skills, confidence in spatial problem-solving, or…

"Productive Struggle: How Artificial Intelligence is Changing Learning, Effort, and Youth Development in Education," recently released by Bellwether, considers the role of GenAI in education. It proposes a criterion for evaluating these new technologies' impact on student learning: When does ease afforded by GenAI enable greater…
