Stéphane Favier; Jean-Luc Dorier – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2024
In this research, our objective is to characterize the problem-solving procedures of primary and lower secondary students when they solve problems in real class conditions. To do so, we rely first on the concept of heuristics. As this term is very polysemic, we exploit the definition proposed by Rott (2014) to develop a coding manual and thus…

Hartmann, Christian; Rummel, Nikol; Bannert, Maria – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2022
This paper presents a fine-grained process analysis of 22 students in a classroom-based learning setting. The students engaged (and failed) in problem-solving attempts prior to instruction (i.e., the Productive-Failure approach). We used the HeuristicsMiner algorithm to analyze the data of a quasi-experimental study. The applied algorithm allowed…

Alemán, Sonya M.; Bahena, Sofia; Alemán, Enrique, Jr. – Teachers College Record, 2022
Background/Context: Since 2005, critical race theory (CRT) scholars have crafted educational pipelines that compare educational attainment across racial groups in the United States. These visual models offer concise pictorial narratives about the discrepancies that fall along racial lines, particularly the underperformance of Chicana/o/x students…

Retamoso, Ivan – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2022
A very common Applied Optimization Problem in Calculus deals with minimizing a distance given certain constraints, using Calculus, the general method for solving these problems is to find a function formula for the distance that we need to minimize, take the derivative of the distance function, set it equal to zero, and solve for the input value,…

Yousif, Sami R.; Alexandrov, Emma; Bennette, Elizabeth; Aslin, Richard N.; Keil, Frank C. – Developmental Science, 2022
A large and growing body of work has documented robust illusions of area perception in adults. To date, however, there has been surprisingly little in-depth investigation into children's area perception, despite the importance of this topic to the study of quantity perception more broadly (and to the many studies that have been devoted to studying…

Weatherhead, Drew; Kandhadai, Padmapriya; Hall, D. Geoffrey; Werker, Janet F. – Child Development, 2021
Previous work indicates mutual exclusivity in word learning in monolingual, but not bilingual toddlers. We asked whether this difference indicates distinct conceptual biases, or instead reflects best-guess heuristic use in the absence of context. We altered word-learning contexts by manipulating whether a familiar- or unfamiliar-race speaker…

Araújo, Sara Barros; Esteves, Susana; Marta, Margarida – Early Years: An International Journal of Research and Development, 2023
In Portugal, professional preparation for working with infants and toddlers is often characterized as insufficient and/or inadequate in light of the specific professionalism required for working with very young children. This study is situated in initial professional education (IPE) and, in particular, on practicum experiences within an early…

Lee, Jiyoung; Kang, Dayoung; Lee, Hee Yun; Kim, Ji Won – Health Education Journal, 2023
Objectives: This study aimed to examine the joint effect of two core message elements -- authoritative source and argument strength -- in correction tweets to counter conspiratorial misinformation about the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine. Design/Method: An online experiment with US residents (N = 404) was conducted in a 2 (authoritative…

Platt, Ian A.; Kannangara, Chathurika; Carson, Jerome; Tytherleigh, Michelle – Psychology in the Schools, 2021
Children spend more time in school than in any other formal setting and, with mental illness in children on the rise, there is more pressure on schools to intervene in student mental health than ever before. In the current study, two phases of semistructured interviews were conducted with school leaders and special educational needs coordinators…

Jimenez-Liso, M. Rut; Bellocchi, Alberto; Martinez-Chico, Maria; Lopez-Gay, Rafael – Research in Science Education, 2022
In this study we address the need to promote student engagement with school science and the need to measure a more comprehensive conception of engagement considering three dimensions of engagement: emotional, behavioural, and cognitive. We address the first issue by designing and implementing a model-based inquiry instructional sequence focused on…

Soraya Kresin; Kerstin Kremer; Alexander Georg Büssing – Science Education, 2024
The rise of social media platforms and the subsequent lack of traditional gatekeeping mechanisms contribute to the multiplied spread of scientific misinformation. Particularly in these new media spaces, there is a rising need for science education in fostering a science media literacy that enables students to evaluate the credibility of scientific…

James D. Weese; Ronna C. Turner; Allison Ames; Xinya Liang; Brandon Crawford – Journal of Experimental Education, 2024
In this study a standardized effect size was created for use with the SIBTEST procedure. Using this standardized effect size, a single set of heuristics was developed that are appropriate for data fitting different item response models (e.g., 2-parameter logistic, 3-parameter logistic). The standardized effect size rescales the raw beta-uni value…

A Feminist Critical Heuristic for Educational Policy Analysis: U.S. Social Emotional Learning Policy
Lemke, Melinda; Rogers, Kate – Journal of Education Policy, 2023
Social emotional learning (SEL) aims to promote student well-being, including healthy relationships that are free from harm like gender-based-violence (GBV). We investigated U.S. SEL policy through the lens of GBV, and how policy in the New York State (NYS) context operates to actualize or constrain SEL aims. To do so, we developed and applied a…

Rahm, Lina; Rahm-Skågeby, Jörgen – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2023
This paper suggests that artificial intelligence in education (AIEd) can be fruitfully analysed as 'policies frozen in silicon'. This means that they exist as both materialised and proposed problematisations (problem representations with corresponding solutions). As a theoretical and analytical response, this paper puts forward a heuristic lens…

Chang, Franklin; Tatsumi, Tomoko; Hiranuma, Yuna; Bannard, Colin – Cognitive Science, 2023
Tense/aspect morphology on verbs is often thought to depend on event features like telicity, but it is not known how speakers identify these features in visual scenes. To examine this question, we asked Japanese speakers to describe computer-generated animations of simple actions with variation in visual features related to telicity. Experiments…
