Gürbüz, Ramazan; Çalik, Muammer – Problems of Education in the 21st Century, 2021
Since contemporary learning theories, strategies and models offer the interdisciplinary approach, educators need new pedagogical alternative ways to attain it in practicum. For this reason, the current research aimed to illustrate how to intertwine mathematical modeling with an environmental issue that recruits waste management (e.g.,…

Zongozzi, J. N. – Open Learning, 2021
A conceptual confusion of "theory" exists in South African Open Distance and e-Learning (ODeL) research in which the concept is used with borderline, related, contrary, invented, or illegitimate concepts such as a model, approach, construct, hypothesis, theoretical framework, or conceptual framework. As a result, some researchers choose…

Kuijpers, Renske E.; Visser, Ingmar; Molenaar, Dylan – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2021
Mixture models have been developed to enable detection of within-subject differences in responses and response times to psychometric test items. To enable mixture modeling of both responses and response times, a distributional assumption is needed for the within-state response time distribution. Since violations of the assumed response time…

Gao, Xuliang; Ma, Wenchao; Wang, Daxun; Cai, Yan; Tu, Dongbo – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2021
This article proposes a class of cognitive diagnosis models (CDMs) for polytomously scored items with different link functions. Many existing polytomous CDMs can be considered as special cases of the proposed class of polytomous CDMs. Simulation studies were carried out to investigate the feasibility of the proposed CDMs and the performance of…

McKenzie, Karen; McNall, Anne; Noone, Steve; Branch, Alison; Murray, George; Sherring, Melissa; Jones, Lynne; Thompson, Judith; Chaplin, Jill – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2021
Background: Concern about the poor care of some people with an intellectual disability has highlighted the need for systemic, large-scale interventions to develop a skilled workforce. Method: We outline how an implementation science theoretical model informed the development of a region-wide Positive Behavioural Support (PBS) Workforce Development…

Irvine, Taylor; Labarta, Adriana; Emelianchik-Key, Kelly – Professional Counselor, 2021
Counselor education (CE) programs are expected to provide counselors-in-training (CITs) with a diversity-infused curriculum. Throughout the CE literature, there are many available methods to accomplish this goal, yet trainees have reported a lack of self-efficacy in essential multicultural competencies before entering clinical work. Graduates of…

Les, Tomasz; Moroz, Jacek – Journal for Critical Education Policy Studies, 2021
The article raises the problem of critical thinking from a constructivist perspective. In the course of argumentation, we justify the thesis that constructivism is a valuable basis for both a theoretical approach (as a model) to critical thinking and a didactic design of activities focused on shaping and developing appropriate skills and…

Changpetch, Pannapa; Reid, Moya – Journal of Education for Business, 2021
Based on a statistical analysis, undergraduate business students are shown to prefer classification tree over six other standard data mining techniques. Data were collected over a 4-year period from students taking a data mining course offered at a business university in the US. The principal reason given by students for this preference is that…

Cumber, Peter – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
Mechanical engineering students often find the formulation and analysis of dynamical systems difficult. The response of some mechanical engineering undergraduates is that as much as possible courses on mechanics are best avoided. The aim of this paper is to produce some interesting dynamical systems that may help to change the opinions of the…

Chen, Wenli; Tan, Jesmine S. H.; Pi, Zhongling – International Journal of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, 2021
While there are many studies on students' collaborative learning at the small group level, pedagogies and strategies for supporting students' collaborative learning at the class level are underexplored. This study proposes a pedagogical model named the Spiral Model of Collaborative Knowledge Improvement (SMCKI) to inform the design and…

Ke, Li; Sadler, Troy D.; Zangori, Laura; Friedrichsen, Patricia J. – Science & Education, 2021
Learning science in the context of socio-scientific issues (SSI) can promote scientific literacy that links science to everyday life and society. In this position paper, we argue that developing and using multiple models equip students with the appropriate knowledge and skills needed to deal with complex issues. We draw upon literature from…

Gavhi-Molefe, Mpfareleni Rejoyce; Jensen, Eric; Joubert, Marina – International Journal of Science Education, Part B: Communication and Public Engagement, 2021
Scientists are key actors in public engagement activities, such as science festivals. This study sought to explore factors that encouraged and/or deterred scientists' participation in Scifest Africa, the flagship science festival in South Africa. A self-administered, online survey was completed by 40 scientists who participated in this science…

Lemonidis, Charalampos; Likidis, Nikos – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
In this study, we propose an integrated hierarchical model of computational estimation strategies (IHMCES), which can be used to organize a set of computational estimation strategies, used by a group of individuals, in strategy ranges. IHMCES can be used for the description of the repertoire, profile and flexibility of individuals regarding the…
