Algebra is an important branch of mathematics which applies to many fields related to mathematics. However, many studies show algebra as posing problems even to the most gifted students. This phenomenon, therefore, necessitates more studies to be conducted in this area. As such, the study explored the types of errors that Grade 8 learners…

Large numbers of Americans of all ages are interested in learning more about climate change education (CCE) (Perkins et al. 2017) and high schools have the opportunity to contribute to that learning. The "Next Generation Science Standards" (NGSS Lead States 2013) attempt to address climate change for high school students across…

A new group of Grade 12 students graduates from high school each year. This is an important time for young adults because they must make decisions for what life after high school will look like. The purpose of this study was twofold: (a) to investigate what decisions students in Alberta are making for after high school, and (b) to examine how such…

The purpose of this correlational survey study is to examine the critical thinking dispositions and analytical thinking skills of high school students. Using a multistage cluster sampling plan, 433 students from different types of high schools completed the critical thinking disposition, and the analytical thinking skills scales. Descriptive…

While classical studies have highlighted the many potential benefits of using original historical sources in the classroom, few studies have documented actual classroom practices outside of research contexts. In this case study, I aim to describe and explain how five French high school teachers autonomously designed and implemented classroom…

This study aims to explore motivation factors that contribute to learning among young adult learners in selected schools in Kuala Selangor, Malaysia. Four focus group discussions had been conducted to collect the data via a semi-structured interview. The selection of participants in the interview was based on learners who experienced the…

Currently, many relevant problems about intuitive imagination literacy have been studied except the cognitive degree of pre-service high school mathematics teachers about it. To address this gap, this study investigates 51 pre-service high school mathematics teachers. Results showed that: (1) The cognitive scope of them about intuitive imagination…

This paper follows the author's trajectory as he collaboratively experimented with ethnodrama (theatre scripts generated from interviews, media artifacts, and written media) and devised theatre performance (theatre collaboratively created with a group), culminating in the analysis of a performance with high school students combining elements of…

This article deals with an introduction of probability at school through sensory modalities. This approach is based on sampling fluctuation with empirical observations of frequencies. Initially, we analyze how students from high school work on such a task by using dice, pencil, and paper. We then identify the use of schemas and data visualization…

The rapid developments of Science and Technology call for individuals to have strong academic knowledge and creativity. Research shows that students acquire creativity after either curricular or extracurricular activities in subject matters. However, there is not much research examining students' creativity through integrative learning activities,…

Despite being faced with major barriers to overcome, local school districts and teachers must work to align their instructional practices in science and their assessment practices to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and the New Jersey Student Learning Standards for Science (NJSLS-Science). As described in the literature, a…

Previous research has demonstrated a need for contextual fit when implementing behavior supports in high schools (Flannery et al., "The High School Journal," "96"(4), 267-282, 2013; Flannery & Kato, "Preventing School Failure: Alternative Education for Children and Youth," "61"(1), 69-79, 2017). As high…

Several state boards of education have adopted graduate profiles or portraits to better define the skills and knowledge students should master before they graduate high school. This report discusses the graduate profiles developed by the following states: South Carolina, Utah, Virginia, and Washington. While their entry points and approaches to…

This non-experimental, quantitative study investigated the association between the number of high school mathematics credits earned and college attendance. Specifically, this study examined the relationship for graduates of Kansas City Missouri Public Schools (KCPS) and Kansas City Kansas Public Schools (KCKPS) in the 2017-2018, 2018-2019 and…

Leadership at California continuation high schools serves one to four percent of high schoolers annually in their districts that have transferred or been transferred to their sites. Students in California are required by law to stay in school until their eighteenth birthday. This research was undertaken to explore how continuation high school…
