We investigated the cognitive demand of the exercise problems that middle school students from Nepal are expected to complete. The middle school (grades 6, 7, and 8) mathematics textbooks examined in this study were published and distributed by the government of Nepal. Our data set consisted of textbooks that are currently in use in public schools…

Hackemann, Timo; Heine, Lena; Höttecke, Dietmar – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
Students with high reading proficiency typically achieve better results in science assessments, indicating the importance of reading proficiency. Since the process of reading is a complex interaction between properties of a text and a reader, the linguistic demands of a text might affect text comprehension. Certain linguistic features, such as…

Park, Do-Yong; Logsdon, Cindy – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2015
Before science can be completely understood, one of the fundamental skills that must be developed is observation. Improving descriptive writing and investigating students' observational skills in the classroom is the purpose of this study. The study was designed to determine if such skills, practiced through modeling activities, serve as a way to…

Three teaching methods were compared in this study, namely a Cognitive Conflict Management Module (CCM) that is infused into Cognitive Acceleration through Science Education (CASE), (Module A) CASE without CCM (Module B) and a conventional teaching method. This study employed a pre- and post-test quasi-experimental design using non-equivalent…
