Demands, Tensions, and Resources When Implementing Ambitious Mathematics

In this article, we explore demands and tensions involved when schools implement ambitious mathematics teaching (AMT). Following a description of a framework that distinguishes between internal and external demands, we characterize the tension between these in terms of alignment, balance, and buffering, which collectively speak to coherence. We then describe AMT and how it represents a departure from traditional mathematics instruction found in most countries.

This research forum explores innovative research approaches to teacher noticing in mathematics education, focusing on four key areas: theoretical perspectives and conceptualizations of teacher noticing, methodological approaches to the study of teacher noticing, teachers’ professional learning of noticing, and new research directions in teacher noticing.

Struggling to Detect Struggle in Students Playing a Science Exploration Game

The real-time detection of when a player is struggling presents an opportunity for game designers to design timely and meaningful interventions, as well as to provide targeted support that improves student learning and engagement. In this paper, we present a struggle detector in the context of students playing the learning game, Wake: Tales from the Aqualab.

Open Game Data: A Technical Infrastructure for Open Science with Educational Games

In this paper we describe a technical infrastructure, entitled Open Game Data, for conducting educational game research using open science, educational data mining and learning engineering approaches. We describe a modular data pipeline which begins with telemetry events from gameplay and ends with real time APIs and automated archival exports that support research. We demonstrate the usefulness of this infrastructure by summarizing several game research projects that have utilized and contributed back to Open Game Data.
