In their recent exchange, Anderson, Reder, and Simon (1996 (1997) Greeno frame the conflicts between cognitive theory situated learning in terms of issues that are primarily interest to educational psychologists. We attempt broaden debate by approaching this discussion perspectives against background our concerns as educators who engage classroom-based research instructional design collaboration with teachers. first delineate underlying differences two distinguishing central organizing...
In this article, we describe an approach for documenting students' mathematical development in the social context of a classroom over prolonged period time. Our theoretical perspective is based on view that ways which children participate discussions are influenced by their views themselves as members community and individual knowing. Thus, our analysis aims to document both evolution communal practices students understandings they those evolving practices. frame discussion these presenting...
BACKGROUND Predicting and managing spontaneous cervical artery dissections (CeAD) is challenging due to the absence of tools for early identification high‐risk individuals. This study seeks gather evidence on predictive value high‐intensity transient signals (HITS) detected by transcranial Doppler recurrent ischemic events (IEs) following CeAD. METHODS We performed a systematic review meta‐analysis published studies along with data from our cohort. Following Preferred Reporting Items...

Abstract Our analysis of a college level mathematics course for prospective secondary teachers revealed that each student developed, at least to some degree, conceptual orientation teaching (A. G. Thompson, Philipp, & Boyd, 1994). This initial finding led more in-depth question: If we assume an emergent perspective (Cobb Bauersfeld, 1995; Cobb Yackel, 1996) in which the values, practices, and social motivations classroom are believed play critical roles students' development, what aspects...
This tutorial presents topic models for organizing and comparing documents. The technique corresponding discussion focuses on analysis of short text documents, particularly micro-blogs. However, the base model R implementation are generally applicable to analytics document databases.
This article presents a case study that details the successes and lessons learned by faculty administrators at San Diego State University (SDSU) who are in process of implementing substantial improvement to Precalculus Calculus 2 sequence. Improvement efforts have been informed national studies successful programs center on department as primary agent change. The majority will discuss particular changes being enacted SDSU, with special attention how they came be are, implemented, we...
The need to incorporate active learning (AL) in higher education has become a prominent issue discussed by major leadership organizations such as the Conference Board of Mathematical Sciences (CBMS, 2016). These calls for AL are based on large and growing body research documenting correlation between use reduced failure rates, deeper conceptual understanding, increased retention STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) courses. However, dependent variables these studies usually...
Abstract One of the main goals lower division “service” mathematics courses is to provide STEM-intending students with opportunities engage in activities and contexts that can support their efforts apply mathematical ideas they are learning successive major courses. The Mathematics Association America has supported many mathematicians’ ask partner discipline faculty what topics habits mind feel should be covered classes prepare them for subsequent classes. We add this work a twist: Instead...
Designing didactic objects involves imagining how students can conceive of specific mathematical topics and then what types classroom discussions could support these mental constructions. This study investigated whether it was possible to design Java applets that might serve as online learning where ‘discussions’ are broadly defined the conversations have with themselves they interact dynamic representations on screen. Eighty-four pre-service elementary teachers enrolled in hybrid...
Current trends in middle school curricula highlight the importance of integrating algebraic reasoning throughout grades. The use innovative technologies offers one exciting way to engage students problem-solving activities. In this article, we report on our efforts design for seventh graders a computer-based instructional unit that would not only address state standards but, hoped, also lay groundwork students' subsequent formal study algebra. software chose, SimCalc MathWorlds, is available...
Abstract One reason that students struggle in introductory physics classes, which are often key entry points for STEM majors, is certain topics difficult to mentally visualize and manipulate two dimensions. Vectors fields, example, challenging their own right, even more so when presented using static imagery textbooks or on whiteboards the classroom. To address this barrier learning, we developed a series of augmented reality (AR)-based environments designed engage groups explorations...
