Brown, Jill P.; Stillman, Gloria A. – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2023
This paper explores use of a set of diagrammatic tools for representation and analysis of the moves a teacher makes implementing a mathematical modelling task. The focus here is on identifying what the teacher did so we can subsequently interrogate this, as to the why. Data include pre and post lesson teacher interviews and transcripts of a video…

Nugteren, Michelle L.; Jarodzka, Halszka; Kester, Liesbeth; Van Merriënboer, Jeroen J. G. – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
Secondary school students often learn new cognitive skills by practicing with tasks that vary in difficulty, amount of support and/or content. Occasionally, they have to select these tasks themselves. Studies on task-selection guidance investigated either procedural guidance (specific rules for selecting tasks) or strategic guidance (general rules…

Schrader, Claudia; Kalyuga, Slava – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
The study investigated interactions between learner expertise and task complexity evaluated from both cognitive and affective perspectives. One hundred and seventy-three students, both novices and advanced learners, were asked to learn Japanese writing in a pen-tablet-based digital learning environment with varying task complexity levels.…

Erdem, Emrullah; Gökkurt, Burçin; Soylu, Yasin – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
This study aims to examine the strategies developed by 7th grade students while shading different percentages of geometric shapes. The study was carried out with 113 7th graders studying at a state middle school in a province of Turkey. The data were gathered using the Shading Percentage Test, which consisted of seven tasks. Data analysis employed…

DeBolt, Michaela C.; Mitsven, Samantha G.; Pomaranski, Katherine I.; Cantrell, Lisa M.; Luck, Steven J.; Oakes, Lisa M. – Developmental Psychology, 2023
We tested 6- and 8-month-old White and non-White infants (N = 53 total, 28 girls) from Northern California in a visual search task to determine whether a unique item in an otherwise homogeneous display (a singleton) attracts attention because it is a unique singleton and "pops out" in a categorical manner, or whether attention instead…

Emhardt, Selina N.; Kok, Ellen; van Gog, Tamara; Brandt-Gruwel, Saskia; van Marlen, Tim; Jarodzka, Halszka – Educational Psychology Review, 2023
Eye movement modeling examples (EMMEs) are instructional videos (e.g., tutorials) that visualize another person's gaze location while they demonstrate how to perform a task. This systematic literature review provides a detailed overview of studies on the effects of EMME to foster observers' performance and learning and highlights their differences…

Prueitt, Ethan; Yates, Mark – Journal of Research in Reading, 2023
Background: Previous research has shown that the emotional content of words affects how quickly they are recognised. One recent measure of word emotionality is emotional experience that measures the degree to which reading a word can invoke emotional experiences tied to the word. Words that are higher in emotional experience are recognised more…

Ovando-Tellez, Marcela; Kenett, Yoed N.; Benedek, Mathias; Bernard, Matthieu; Belo, Joan; Beranger, Benoit; Bieth, Theophile; Volle, Emmanuelle – Creativity Research Journal, 2023
Associative thinking plays a major role in creativity, as it involves the ability to link distant concepts. Yet, the neural mechanisms allowing to combine distant associates in creative thinking tasks remain poorly understood. We investigated the whole-brain functional connectivity patterns related to combining remote associations for creative…

Cabiddu, Francesco; Bott, Lewis; Jones, Gary; Gambi, Chiara – Language Learning, 2023
Word segmentation is a crucial step in children's vocabulary learning. While computational models of word segmentation can capture infants' performance in small-scale artificial tasks, the examination of early word segmentation in naturalistic settings has been limited by the lack of measures that can relate models' performance to developmental…

Kampis, Dora; Lukowski Duplessy, Helle; Askitis, Dimitrios; Southgate, Victoria – Child Development, 2023
People sometimes commit 'egocentric errors', failing to ignore their own perspective when interpreting others' communication. Training imitation-inhibition, when participants perform the opposite action from another person, facilitates subsequent perspective-taking in adults. This study tested whether imitation-inhibition training also facilitates…

Cheeseman, Jill; Downton, Ann; Ferguson, Sarah; Roche, Anne – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2023
Children's multiplicative thinking as the recognition of equal group structures and the enumeration of the composite units was the subject of this research. In this paper, we provide an overview of the Multiplication and Division Investigations project. The results were obtained from a small sample of Australian children (n = 21) in their first…

Poole, Adam Langston – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of an intervention utilizing modified schema-based instruction (MSBI) on the mathematical problem-solving ability of elementary school students with mild to moderate disabilities. Four participants were taught to solve percent of change word problems, which required them to calculate the…

Luo, Jiahui; Chan, Cecilia Ka Yuk – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2023
For students to sustain their learning beyond higher education, it is important for them to develop their evaluative judgement. Although the importance of evaluative judgement is well-established, the process through which students make such judgements remains contested. This study explores students' evaluative judgement process by asking 20…

Ismail Özgür Zembat; Sümeyye Gürhan – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2023
This article provides an analysis of a data set coming from a two-phase qualitative study that focused on fostering primary students' abstraction of interrelations among quadrilaterals (squares, rectangles, parallelograms, rhombuses, trapezoids). The pilot study consisted of work with eight primary students operating at van Hiele level 2 (e.g.,…

Matthew Sargent; Alex LePage; Yoed N. Kenett; Heath E. Matheson – Creativity Research Journal, 2023
Accounts of embodied cognition suggest that environmental scene and motor information can be used in a type of neural simulation when generating creative uses for manipulable objects. A scarce amount of studies suggests that the state of the body and environment play a role in people's ability to devise creative uses for objects. In this…
