Durrance, Samantha – Southern Regional Education Board (SREB), 2020
Science tends to be viewed as a completely separate subject area from reading and math. This is the case even in elementary school, where academic content may be more intertwined than in later years. But scientific thinking and processes are valuable across all areas of learning and for career success. Waiting until the middle grades to give…

Xin Wei; Jeremy Roschelle; Danae Kamdar; Tiffany Leones; Ximena Dominguez; William Corrin – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Background/Context: Funders, researchers and developers share an interest in applying rapid cycle evaluation techniques in education (McNall & Foster-Fishman, 2007; Resch, 2016). Both rapid-cycle and other evaluation processes require monitoring the quality of implementation (Moir, 2018). By quickly monitoring and adjusting implementation,…

Zachary G. Johnson; David Houchins; Kris Varjas; Eli Jimenez; Tracy McKinney – Education and Treatment of Children, 2024
Students with high incidence disabilities in the public school system often perform multiple grade levels below their typically developing peers in mathematics achievement. These students exhibit lower levels of on-task behavior that limits their access to effective instruction, thus requiring instructional interventions that personalize learning,…

Tokunaga, Miki – Journal of English Teaching, 2021
Japanese learners of English are often described as having good English grammar but lacking in fluency. However, with the changes to a more communication-focused English curriculum in the last few decades, this is no longer the norm. This paper will first review the reactions to communication-focused English instructions in Japan and other parts…

Yanagisawa, Akifumi; Webb, Stuart – Language Learning, 2021
The involvement load hypothesis (ILH) was designed to predict the effectiveness of instructional tasks for incidental L2 vocabulary learning. In this meta-analysis we examined 398 effect sizes from 42 empirical studies (N = 4,628) to explore (a) the overall predictive ability of the ILH, (b) the relative effects of different components of the ILH…

Li, Junmin – Education Sciences, 2021
Universities face the challenge of constantly improving the quality of higher education and changing the learning behaviour of students, from passive reactive learning to active self-regulated learning. Learner-centred, constructively designed learning tasks offer a great opportunity here. This paper investigates to what extent the learning…

Becherer, Julia; Köller, Olaf; Zimmermann, Friederike – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
Background: Although many studies have suggested that students' externalizing (aggressive and rule-breaking) behaviour is detrimental to their academic achievement, the underlying mechanisms have rarely been investigated. Aims: We conducted a longitudinal investigation of whether the negative relation between externalizing behaviour and academic…

Zajic, Matthew Carl; Solari, Emily Jane; McIntyre, Nancy Susan; Lerro, Lindsay; Mundy, Peter Clive – Grantee Submission, 2021
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) demonstrate heterogeneous writing skills that are generally lower than their typically developing (TD) peers and similar to peers with attention difficulties like attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Recent evidence suggests children with ASD spend less time engaging in writing tasks…

Neiterman, Elena; Zaza, Christine – Canadian Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2019
The widespread use of technological devices in an academic classroom brought with it many learning opportunities, but also posed a challenge of handling the off-task technology use in class. The literature on this topic is growing, but we still know relatively little about students' and instructors' perceptions regarding the off-task technology…
