Sherron, Todd; Cherrstrom, Catherine A.; Boden, Carrie; Wilson, Lindsey – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2021
An increasing number of universities have implemented prior learning assessment (PLA), but little research has examined the non-course matching approach referred to as block credit PLA. Adult learners pursuing a college degree often bring professional competencies, knowledge, and skills to the classroom. PLA enables adult learners to earn college…

Joelyn de Lima – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Context is the background or the settings of an event or idea. It is only when events or ideas are considered within the context in which they occur that they can be fully understood. In education, the application of knowledge communicated in one context to a different one is a central feature of learning. However, knowledge transfer can be…

Wedlock, Joshua; Binnie, Christopher – English Australia Journal, 2023
Although using video to facilitate language learning is an exceedingly common practice, both for in-class and out-of-class learning, at present the literature exploring the use of authentic videos for intentional language learning is void of a user-friendly framework that educators and learners can refer to when selecting and using authentic…

Xia, Qi; Chiu, Thomas K. F.; Chai, Ching Sing; Xie, Kui – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2023
The anthropomorphic characteristics of artificial intelligence (AI) can provide a positive environment for self-regulated learning (SRL). The factors affecting adolescents' SRL through AI technologies remain unclear. Limited AI and disciplinary knowledge may affect the students' motivations, as explained by self-determination theory (SDT). In this…

Tienken, Christopher H. – Kappa Delta Pi Record, 2023
Five facts about standardized tests should cause educators to rethink their use in decision-making. Standardized tests used for state and federal accountability purposes in PreK--12 public education are not diagnostic. The test results are impacted by family income and student background knowledge. The composition of the tests disadvantage…

Emily M. Stump; Mark Hughes; Gina Passante; N. G. Holmes – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
[This paper is part of the Focused Collection on Instructional labs: Improving traditions and new directions.] Uncertainty is an important concept in physics laboratory instruction. However, little work has examined how students reason about uncertainty beyond the introductory (intro) level. In this work we aimed to compare intro and beyond-intro…

Wilawan Phothong; Jiraporn Chaimongkol; Luecha Ladachart – Journal of Technology Education, 2023
This study examines the influence of design-based learning on 25 eighth-grade students' design-thinking mindsets, that is, on the mental outlook that they adopt habitually when they engage in design thinking. It also compares changes in design-thinking mindsets across individuals of different genders and different levels of experience in design.…

Ylonfoun, Awouignandji Leopold Ebenezer – ProQuest LLC, 2023
This dissertation explored Beninese English teachers' prior experience in writing in English and its implications for teaching writing in English in the Benin Republic. Grounded in a social constructionist paradigm, this dissertation used a qualitative research approach with initial survey, autobiographical narrative essay, and interviews to…

Ankora, Carlos; Bolatimi, Stephen Oladagba; Bensah, Lily; Mahama, Francois; Kuadey, Noble Arden; Adu, Adolph Sedem Yaw; Adjei, Laurene – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: The degree to which Computer Science (CS) and Information Communication Technology (ICT) students are motivated to learn greatly impacts their study habits, academic achievement in school and ultimately their job prospects. In recent times, skills in programming languages have become vital in searching for employment. Objective: This…

Doherty, Kristin – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2023
In this article, the author describes strategies to support students in conjecturing in ways that promote their agency. Conjecturing involves justifying (i.e., a practice that promotes epistemic agency and engages students in mathematical reasoning to defend their claims; Bieda & Staples, 2020) by which a conjecture becomes proven, modified,…

Sherry Y. Chen; Chia-Yi Tseng; Chao-Yang Cheng – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
This study proposed a three-tier test to help students learn English grammar. To reduce students' anxiety, game-based learning was incorporated into the three-tier test, where personalization was also implemented to accommodate students' different needs. More specifically, we developed a Personalized Entertaining Three-Tier Test (PET3), which…

Carlson, Sarah E.; Broek, Paul van den; McMaster, Kristen L. – Elementary School Journal, 2022
This study examines factors that influence readers' cognitive processing (i.e., inference generation) and the development of a mental representation of text: comprehension skill and working memory (WM). Elementary students (N = 61) participated in causal questioning conditions with narrative texts to examine text- and knowledge-based inferences…

Harrison, Monique H.; Hernandez, Philip A.; Stevens, Mitchell L. – Sociology of Education, 2022
How do undergraduates make their first course decisions, and are these decisions fateful? Drawing on serial interviews (N = 200) of 53 students at an admissions-selective university, we show that incoming students with disparate precollege experiences differ in their orientations toward and strategies for considering first college math courses.…

Miller, David Allan; Schraeder, Matthew – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2022
At a research university near the east coast, a college algebra class has been restructured into two large lectures a week, an active recitation size laboratory once a week, and an extra day devoted to active group work called Supplemental Practice (SP). SP was added as an extra day of class where the SP leader has students work in groups on a…

Ameloot, Elise; Rotsaert, Tijs; Schellens, Tammy – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Although blended learning (BL) has multiple educational prospects, it also poses challenges such as keeping students motivated. Objectives: This study investigates students' perceptions of how learning analytics (LA) can be used to support the design of a BL environment in order to promote students' basic need for relatedness, which is…
