Subjects: Cognitive Processes,Psychological Patterns,Learning Strategies,Academic Ability,Self Concept,Mathematics Achievement,Middle School Students,Foreign Countries,Predictor Variables

Previous studies have identified the relationship between cognitive activation and academic emotions. However, little is known about the underlying process behind this relationship. Considering that cognitive activation strategies may have different effects on students of different abilities, latent multi-group structural equation modelling was used to compare the mechanism mentioned above. Findings showed that (1) academic self-concept and value significantly mediated the link between cognitive activation and academic emotions among students with different mathematics achievements; (2) the mediating effects of academic self-concept and value are more significant in the below-average students than in the above-average students.
Developing Pre-Service Teachers&apos; Understanding of Numeracy

In Australia, all teachers are expected to explicitly attend to numeracy in the subjects they teach. Pre-service teachers, therefore, need to begin to develop effective numeracy teaching strategies but there is a limited research base to inform the design of courses that address this need. This paper reports on findings from a study investigating the impact of one such course. The paper draws on data from two pre-service teachers: two course tasks completed at the beginning of the course and interviews conducted at the end of the course. Data were analysed using the 21st Century Numeracy Model. Findings suggest there were changes to the pre-service teachers' understanding of numeracy and their capacity to embed numeracy in the subjects they will teach.

Participation structures are important in relation to who gets equitable access to mathematics within classrooms premised on co-construction of mathematical reasoning. This paper takes a strength-based focus to explore how two teachers extended their Pasifika students' known repertoires of practice to encompass others, which supported them to better engage in mathematics. The data illustrates the importance of teachers drawing on task contexts and student ways of knowing and being to facilitate student engagement in reasoned discourse and argumentation. The teacher actions provide a model which other teachers could draw on when teaching mathematics to students from predominantly collectivist groupings.
Designing an Early Number Sequence for Teaching

This paper discusses the design modifications of a sequence of specified learning goals for teaching early number, which characterise an instructional resource developed in a design research collaboration with teachers in Mexican preschools. Highlighted are the types of research involvement that appear to be necessary in designing resources for teaching meaningful mathematics at scale. We argue that, and illustrate how, such involvements need to venture beyond addressing the problems of learning, into the territory of problems of teaching.
Aligning Mathematical and Musical Linear Representations to Support Fractional Reasoning

Type: Speeches/Meeting Papers
Subjects: Mathematics Instruction,Mathematical Logic,Mathematical Concepts,Music Activities,Fractions,Concept Formation,Grade 4,Grade 5,Grade 6,Elementary Education,Foreign Countries,Interdisciplinary Approach

This paper describes the authors' journey in designing a linear representation that aligns mathematics and music to support fractional reasoning. The three authors, guided by the theoretical framing of realistic mathematics education, engaged in a task design process over a 12-month period to develop integrated resources. Data were collected in the form of Zoom meeting recordings, among other sources. This paper describes some key findings from a narrative analysis of this process. We posit that the contribution is twofold--methodological insight of a task design journey and findings around the obstacles and resolutions of aligning representations across mathematics and music, despite the obvious confluence.
Practical Measurement for Continuous Improvement in the Classroom: A Toolkit for Educators. REL 2023-139
Author: Walston, Jill
Date: 2022-10-00
Type: Guides - Classroom - Teacher
Subjects: Measurement Techniques,Measurement,Educational Improvement,Communities of Practice,Data Collection,Data Use,Educational Objectives,Test Construction

This toolkit is designed to guide educators in developing and improving practical measurement instruments for use in networked improvement communities (NICs) and other education contexts in which principles of continuous improvement are applied. Continuous improvement includes distinct repeating processes: understanding the problem, identifying specific targets for improvement, determining the change to introduce, implementing the change, and evaluating if and how the change led to improvements. This toolkit is intended for a team of educators who have already identified specific student learning needs and strategies to improve instruction to address those needs and are ready to test these strategies using continuous improvement processes. The toolkit aims to help the team with the final step in the cycle, which includes collecting data to measure implementation of changes and intended outcomes and using those data to inform future action. Measures for continuous improvement should be closely aligned to student learning goals and implementation of instructional strategies driving the continuous improvement effort, and they should be practical to use in a classroom setting. A team of educators can use this toolkit to proceed through a series of steps to identify what to measure, consider existing instruments, draft instruments, evaluate and refine instruments, plan data collection routines, and plan for data discussions to interpret the data and inform action. Regional Educational Laboratory (REL) Southwest developed the resources in the toolkit in partnership with the Oklahoma State Department of Education team working with the Oklahoma Excel NICs.
A Disposition to Attend to Relationships: A Key Shift in the Development of Multiplicative Thinking. Key Shifts in Thinking in the Development of Mathematical Reasoning. [Symposium]

Type: Speeches/Meeting Papers
Subjects: Mathematics Skills,Thinking Skills,Middle School Students,Multiplication,Item Response Theory,Addition,Problem Solving,Mathematical Models,Mathematics Instruction,Scaffolding (Teaching Technique),Numeracy

This paper draws on numerous data sources to better understand the shift from additive to multiplicative thinking in years 4 to 9. Research studies that have used the Scaffolding Numeracy in the Middle Years assessment tasks have found that while students can be supported to move through the early and upper zones of the Learning and Assessment Framework for multiplicative thinking, it has been difficult to move students through Zone 4 at the same rate. A closer examination of item responses at this level reveal that a disposition to notice and work with relationships between quantities may explain this phenomenon.
Cognitive Flexibility and the Coordination of Multiple Information in Geometry and Measurement. Key Shifts in Thinking in the Development of Mathematical Reasoning. [Symposium]

Subjects: Cognitive Ability,Mathematics Skills,Geometry,Thinking Skills,Mathematics Instruction,Evidence Based Practice,Problem Solving,Measurement,Teaching Methods,Visualization,Visual Aids,Language Usage,Symbols (Mathematics),Sequential Approach,Scores,Task Analysis,Logical Thinking,Comparative Analysis,Foreign Countries,Geometric Concepts

Building from the evidence-based learning progression in geometric reasoning from the RMFII project, this paper presents data from students' solutions to three problems in geometry and measurement situations to identify key components needed to nurture reasoning. To show emerging analytical reasoning students must coordinate multiple pieces of information and demonstrate cognitive flexibility in their use of visualisation, diagrams, language, and symbols.
Facilitating the Shift to Higher-Order Thinking in Statistics and Probability. Key Shifts in Thinking in the Development of Mathematical Reasoning. [Symposium]

Type: Speeches/Meeting Papers
Subjects: Mathematics Skills,Mathematical Logic,Statistics Education,Logical Thinking,Thinking Skills,Multiplication,Statistics,Probability,Mathematics Curriculum

It is increasingly recognised that to be informed citizens and to participate fully in the workforce requires an understanding of statistical data and risk. Such understanding is underpinned by statistical reasoning. It has been shown, however, that students have difficulty moving from concrete representations and procedural mathematical statistics to the context-based appreciation of data drawing on proportional reasoning that is becoming increasingly necessary. Based on the Statistical Reasoning Learning Progression (SRLP), this paper examines the barriers to shifting to higher-order thinking.
Key Shifts in Students&apos; Capacity to Generalise: A Fundamental Aspect of Algebraic Reasoning. Key Shifts in Thinking in the Development of Mathematical Reasoning. [Symposium]

This paper will elaborate five levels of algebraic generalisation based on an analysis of students' responses to Reframing Mathematical Futures II (RMFII) tasks designed to assess algebraic reasoning. The five levels of algebraic generalisation will be elaborated and illustrated using selected tasks from the RMFII study. The five levels will be matched against the eight zones identified in the RMFII study supported by its Rasch analysis. We identify two shifts where students' capacity to generalise appear difficult to navigate. The first being where students move from noticing and describing regularities to formalising these regularities into verbal or symbolic expressions. The second is where students use their understanding of equivalence based on relational thinking to write and recognise equivalent algebraic expressions.
The Science of Everyday Life: Projects for Junior High Schools
Author: Van Buskirk, Edgar F.
Date: 1919-00-00
Type: Historical Materials
Subjects: Textbooks,Science Instruction,Junior High School Students,Introductory Courses

&quot;The Science of Everyday Life&quot; provides the foundation for an introductory course for pupils from 12-16 years of age. It presents information about a large number of physical phenomena that the authors consider most important for boys and girls, whether they continue in school or drop out to enter the several vocations. It is organized into five major topic areas: Air, Water, Food, Protection, and the Work of the World. Units are organized into projects and each project contains an introduction, problems, topics, and individual projects. The problems proposed and the annotated bibliographies presented at the end of each chapter should be of particular value to the teacher who desires to extend the work on any of the topics.
Discourse Tokens of Value and the Coordination of Internship Labor: Analyzing How Employers Talk about College Internships. WCER Working Paper No. 2022-2
Author: Wolfgram, Matthew
Date: 2022-07-00
Type: Reports - Research
Subjects: Internship Programs,College Students,Employers,Employer Attitudes,Value Judgment,Ideology,Discourse Analysis,Higher Education

This paper analyzes how employers use discourse to ideologize the value of college internships--a historically emergent form of contingent, temporary, educational labor which has rapidly become a major feature of both higher education and labor relations in the United States (Frenette, 2015). The analysis is based on in-depth interviews with employers (n=38) in firms and organizations across a range of sectors who supervise and coordinate the work of college student interns from two public universities and two technical colleges located in different economic regions within the same U.S. Midwestern state. Using the anthropological theory of value (Graeber, 2001), we develop an analysis of how employers use discourse to ideologize and coordinate internship labor. Employers use three discourses of value to ideologize 1) the individual intern as the primary beneficiary of the internship (&quot;entrepreneurial discourse of value&quot;); 2) the organization or firm as the primary beneficiary of the internship (&quot;corporate efficiency discourse of value&quot;); and 3) the community, industry, or society in general as the primary beneficiary of the internship (&quot;community service discourse of value&quot;). The article develops the concept of a &quot;discourse token of value&quot;--discursive forms that (like cash) mediate value--as a central concept of the analysis of emergent forms of education and labor.
Playing Offense in the Race for Technology Leadership: Priorities for Final Competitiveness Bill

America is finally poised to begin to go on offense in the contest for technology leadership in the future. Both federal chambers have passed a bill purportedly aimed at elevating the competitiveness of the United States. The United States House of Representatives passed the America COMPETES Act on February 4, 2022, that now must be reconciled with the bill's Senate counterpart, the United States Innovation and Competition Act of 2021 that passed on June 8, 2021. There is perhaps no greater priority facing the nation than to preserve its innovative edge upon which its prosperity and security depends. Playing defense is insufficient. The final bill has the potential to put America on offense. Each bill includes a mixture of provisions not directly relevant to advancing America's competitiveness that are beyond the scope of this paper. They both include provisions vital to bolstering American innovation and sadly other provisions anathema to competitiveness. As the conference committee convenes it should retain those elements that will truly help American innovation stay a step ahead and steer clear of provisions harmful to competitiveness. This paper seeks to state the case for action within the construct of a historical framework for elevating national innovation. It will identify categories of provisions to retain, perhaps even bolster and some provisions to jettison in the conference report for a competitiveness bill.

Nearly all parents and guardians of college-bound high school students are involved in the college search process. Most institutions understand this and would say they communicate with those families or provide information for them. However, is that information really reaching families? Is it accessible, comprehensible, and useful to them? Ruffalo Noel Levitz (RNL), CampusESP, and Ardeo Education Solutions surveyed more than 6,400 parents of prospective college students to explore the preferences, expectations, and experiences of families of prospective college students. This report addresses the following questions: (1) Communication preferences for parents--Which channels they prefer? How often they want to hear from you? What information do they value? (2) Financial expectations and challenges--How difficult will it be for parents to pay for college? How much do they intend to borrow? (3) Campus visits--How do families view in-person and virtual visits? What do they want to experience during these tours? (4) Online education--How do families and students perceive the value of online classes and programs? and (5) Travel for college--How far are parents willing to let their students travel to attend college?

June 23, 2022 marks the 50th anniversary of the passage of Title IX. This federal civil rights law has been credited with profoundly changing education in the United States by barring sex discrimination in the nation's schools. Title IX, along with other equity laws, helped to unlock access to educational and athletic opportunities, paving the way for inroads into historically male-dominated professions. The work of five decades of Title IX's impact is writ large in every sector of American society. This report is grounded in the rich history of Title IX and takes a multi-dimensional look at its impact. The report is based on a rigorous literature review and original research using publicly available data sets. The focus is primarily on the enforcement of Title IX in athletics and the three major areas that should be reviewed in ongoing and regular Title IX audits: athletic participation opportunities, allocation of athletic scholarship funding, and allocation of resources in operational areas. The report examines Title IX through the lens of intersectionality, explores emerging issues, and looks ahead to what is needed to accelerate the pace of change for the next 50 years.

The pandemic period of the past two years has altered many aspects of the high school and college experience for students. With more emphasis on hybrid and virtual experiences, how has this impacted the college search process for high school students? What do they value, what do they need to know, and what information have they seen? Ruffalo Noel Levitz (RNL), Mongoose, Modern Campus, and PLEXUSS surveyed more than 1,000 high school students (9th-12th grade) to uncover their expectations, experiences, and preferences during the college search process. This report provides responses on topics such as: (1) When students start their college search and planning; (2) What prospective students want out of their college experiences; (3) Their plans and attitudes about college entrance exams; (4) How far they are willing to travel to attend college; and (5) The information and influencers students value most. These findings provide information that can help assess the search communications and strategies as institutions engage prospective students and ensure they have the information they need to know.
