Generalisation is a skill that enables learners to acquire knowledge in general, and mathematical knowledge in particular. It is a core aspect of algebraic thinking and, in particular, of functional thinking, as a type of algebraic thinking. Introducing primary school children to functional thinking fosters their ability to generalise, explain and…

This paper describes a partnership-based approach for analyzing data from a learning management system (LMS) used by students in grades 6-12. The goal of the partnership was to create indicators for the ways in which students navigated digital learning activities, referred to as playlists, that were comprised of resources, pre-assessments, and…

Student's voice is frequently not relevant for study program design. The issue addressed in this study is the analysis of student voice in master programs. It does this by aiming to identify student perceptions and expectations, their achievement goals, as well as students' perceptions and expectation for an optimal learning environment. This…

Communication strategies (CSs) have been generally viewed as ways in which learners may circumvent, and ideally overcome, communicative difficulties. However, over 40 years of research in this area has been largely confined to theory and experimental studies, and it is not clear to what extent CS research has filtered into contemporary second…

The study examined the relationships between self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies used by 2,894 bilingual primary school students and their Chinese and English reading test performance. Exploratory factor analysis of the self-reported SRL strategy use questionnaire yielded two factors of strategies (planning and monitoring) used in both…

Soft rot diseases cause crop losses all over the world. These losses can have large economic impacts and threaten international food security. Soft rot bacterial pathogens produce pectolytic enzymes that attack the pectin around plant cells resulting in smelly, wet, and mushy tissue maceration. Once symptoms are visible, the crop cannot be used or…

There is limited research on the relation between approaches to learning (ATL) and Latino kindergarteners' math development, and mixed results regarding the role of Latino home numeracy practices. This study examined the associations among Latino kindergarteners' ATL, home numeracy practices, and growth in math skills. Participants were 151…

This qualitative study explored the experience of third through fifth grade teachers that use kinesthetic learning strategies (KLS) in the classroom and their perception of the student learning process. Most studies on kinesthetic learning have been student-centered, and research to examine the perspective of teachers expands our understanding of…

The topic of learning strategies has often been researched in the contexts of second language acquisition and language pedagogy. New developments in these fields and change in the characteristics and needs of new learner populations in different contexts call for additional research in this area which is characterized by change and variability.…

This study aims to produce a more personalized recommendation system for online learning using multicriteria in collaborative filtering and data from the Binus Online Learning repository as a knowledge base. The study uses forecasting (regression) and consists of three stages: (1) collecting data on the results of the learning process; (2) adding…

Many studies have examined the factors that influence second language interaction, such as task type and communication mode, i.e., face-to-face and computer-mediated communication through online mode. However, there is a paucity of research that has investigated the effects of task type on negotiation of meaning (NoM), a specific type of…

The present study investigates the use of generative strategies and their effect on second language (L2) vocabulary retention and learner confidence in vocabulary knowledge over time. Generative strategies (or generation) are one in a group of learning methods known as desirable difficulties -- strategies that improve long-term learning by adding…

In recent years, there has been a growing shift in education towards learning that extends beyond traditional classroom settings. With the rise of digital technologies and the prevalence of self-directed learning environments, teachers are increasingly interested in how students take control of their learning. As traditional classroom structures…

With the increasing use of digital technology, more children are engaged in online learning at home, raising questions about how parents can promote their children's online self-regulated learning (SRL). Online self-regulated learners actively manage their learning by setting goals, selecting strategies, assessing progress, and utilizing…

This research examines the learning preferences of students in UAE University (UAEU). The uniqueness of this research emanates from the fact that no prior research examined this area from the UAE's perspective. Thus, this research embarks on the fact that student learning strategies vary from one country to another due to many factors. This…
