CAREER: Investigating Changes in Students' Prior Mathematical Reasoning: An Exploration of Backward Transfer Effects in School Algebra
Project
-
This project explores "backward transfer", or the ways in which new learning impacts previously-established ways of reasoning. The PI will observe and evaluate algebra I students as they learn quadratic…
Examining Relationships Between Flipped Instruction and Students' Learning of Mathematics
Project
-
This study can provide a basis for design research focused on developing effective materials and programs for flipped instruction in secondary mathematics, which is already occurring at an increasing rate, but…
Mathematical Learning via Architectural Design and Modeling Using E-Rebuild
Project
-
This project will explore the learning of mathematics through architectural tasks in an online simulation game, E-Rebuild. In the game-based architectural simulation, students will be able to complete tasks such…
Algebraic Learning and Cognition in Learning Disabled Students
Project
-
The project is a longitudinal assessment of the prerequisite (e.g. fractions), cognitive (e.g. working memory), and non-cognitive (e.g. math anxiety) factors that dynamically influence 7-9th grade students'…
Developing and Evaluating Assessments of Problem Solving (Collaborative Research: Bostic)
Project
-
This project builds upon the prior work by creating problem-solving measures for grades 3-5. The elementary assessments will be connected to the middle-grades assessments and will be available for use by school…
