Achieving knowledge integration for deep learning requires students to develop well-connected knowledge structures through the central idea of a concept. However, a number of studies on student learning in momentum have revealed persistent difficulties in understanding its fundamental concept, particularly in relating net force, time, and change…

How can we use math to understand--and solve--challenges in our world? In "What We Do When Fairness Fails Us," Moises, Marissa, and Astrud realize that a specialized high school uses a lottery for admission that prevents many qualified students from attending. As they research how lotteries work, they come across videos by Federico…

Learning Transformation Geometry (TG) needs a more informal approach to concern situational problems. This study aims to develop actionable knowledge of TG in the form of design related to context and yet general enough to use digital manipulative activities in new situations. We propose such knowledge in the form of conjectured Local…

Purpose: The growing literature on private supplementary tutoring, widely known as shadow education, addresses multiple dimensions and roles. However, many studies inadequately capture the diversity and implications of different forms of tutoring. This paper examines these matters in Myanmar, highlighting complexities and ambiguities in…

The study aimed to evaluate E-learning pattern between effectiveness and obstacles as viewed by the secondary stage students during COVID-19 pandemic in Jordan. The study population consisted of 326 eleventh grade students from the private schools in Madaba, Jordan. A sample of 142 eleventh grade students was purposefully selected from Al-Rashad…

The landscape of education has experienced significant changes as a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Central to the recent developments is the increasing concerns related to the levels of student satisfaction and performance in Mathematics within the context of online learning. This study seeks to fill the gaps in existing research…

Recent policy efforts have attempted to increase the number of dual enrollment courses offered within Career and Technical Education (CTE) pathways, and there is evidence to suggest that this practice is widespread. However, there is very little research on student participation in CTE dual enrollment and on its impacts. This study examines…

This article analyses the mechanisms that contribute to differences in educational choice in the transition from the second to the third stage of secondary education in Flanders, a highly tracked educational system. The study programme chosen in the eleventh grade, besides being quite predictable from the educational position in the tenth grade…

Suicide is the second leading cause of death in adolescents (ages 12-19) in the United States, and more work is needed to shed light on the interpersonal protective factors associated with adolescent suicidality. To address this gap in the empirical literature, we examined the application of the Interpersonal Theory of Suicide (IPTS) to the middle…

The purpose of this study is to identify and assess the difficulties experienced by the 11th grade students regarding generating, interpreting and comparing scatter plots. The study was carried out with 40 students-enrolled in 11th grade. The difficulties of students were identified through an achievement test on generating, interpreting, and…

This study employed a qualitative content analysis design to examine the extent to which 8th and 11th-grade U.S. History textbooks, adopted by the State of Texas, foster historical empathy and disciplinary knowledge and skills in the subject of history through student engagement with textbook activities. The textbook activities collected for this…

This study examined how students utilized metacognition while solving physics problems. A case study design was implemented, involving 30 11th-grade students. Data were collected by using open-ended physics problems, with a think-aloud strategy applied during the process. Both quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted using the…

Twenty-nine states require or allow all 11th graders to take the ACT or SAT in school, for free, eliminating access to testing as a barrier to college entry. I examine whether this affects postsecondary outcomes using state-aggregated panel data and time-varying difference-in-differences methods. I find policy adoption led to 2% increases in…

This quantitative study examined Lebanese secondary school students' attitudes toward socio-scientific issues (SSIs), focusing on climate change as a representative topic due to its social, economic, and political complexities. A sample of 130 students from grades 10 to 12 in Lebanese private schools completed the Attitudes Toward Socio-scientific…

This study aims to determine the effect of the STEM-based learning model on collaboration skills and determine the effective contribution of the STEM-based learning model to collaboration skills in the chemistry subject of buffer solution material. This study uses a quantitative quasi-experimental study with a posttest only with control group…
