This book was released on 2019 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year, ninth-grade students across the United States of America fail to meet the national standards in mathematics. Students struggle to grasp the concepts needed to produce correct answers to math problems. Ninth grade students with disabilities, especially in the southeastern region of the United States, consistently fail the math portion of the Georgia Milestones Test. As a response to this problem in Georgia, Hands-On Equations by Henry Borenson represents a possible solution for many students failing to meet the standard in ninth grade mathematics. The purpose of this quantitative causal-comparative study was to examine the difference between the mathematics achievement of ninth-grade students with and without disabilities in a high school in Southeastern Georgia who received instruction with Hands-On Equations versus those who received instruction without the use of Hands-On Equations. The data used were historical data from the 2016 school year. One group of students participated in instruction using Hands-On Equations while another group received traditional teaching methods without the use of the Hands-On Equations. The participating schools were urban schools located in the Southeastern part of Georgia. Most of the students were African American, and the schools were 100% free lunch. An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) generated comparative data. The results related to Hypothesis H01 and H03 indicated that there was a significant difference in the mathematics achievement scores for ninth-grade students with or without disabilities who received instruction with Hands-on Equations. However, results related to hypothesis H02 indicated that there was no statistically significant difference in mathematics achievement scores for ninth-grade students who did or did not receive instruction using Hands-on Equations.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many students in the United States are graduating from high school without the math skills they need to be considered college ready. For many of these graduates, who find themselves starting their higher education at a community college, remedial math can become an insurmountable barrier that ends their aspirations for a degree or certificate. Some students must take as many as four remedial courses before they are considered college ready. Studies report that between 60% and 70% of students placed into remedial math classes either do not successfully complete the sequence of required courses or avoid taking math altogether and therefore never graduate (Bailey, Jeong, & Cho, 2010). This study compared three low-level freshman math classes in one Arizona high school. The purpose of this study was to implement an innovative learning intervention to find out if there was a causal relationship between the addition of technology with instruction in a blended learning environment and performance in math. The intervention measured growth (pre- and posttest) and grade-level achievement (district-provided benchmark test) in three Foundations of Algebra classes. The three classes ranged on a continuum with the use of technology and personalized instruction. Additionally, focus groups were conducted to better understand the challenges this population of students face when learning math. The changes in classroom practices showed no statistical significance on the student outcomes achieved. Students in a blended online environment learned the Foundations of Algebra concepts similarly to their counterparts in a traditional, face-to-face learning environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential text unpacks major transformations in the study of learning and human development and provides evidence for how science can inform innovation in the design of settings, policies, practice, and research to enhance the life path, opportunity and prosperity of every child. The ideas presented provide researchers and educators with a rationale for focusing on the specific pathways and developmental patterns that may lead a specific child, with a specific family, school, and community, to prosper in school and in life. Expanding key published articles and expert commentary, the book explores a profound evolution in thinking that integrates findings from psychology with biology through sociology, education, law, and history with an emphasis on institutionalized inequities and disparate outcomes and how to address them. It points toward possible solutions through an understanding of and addressing the dynamic relations between a child and the contexts within which he or she lives, offering all researchers of human development and education a new way to understand and promote healthy development and learning for diverse, specific youth regardless of race, socioeconomic status, or history of adversity, challenge, or trauma. The book brings together scholars and practitioners from the biological/medical sciences, the social and behavioral sciences, educational science, and fields of law and social and educational policy. It provides an invaluable and unique resource for understanding the bases and status of the new science, and presents a roadmap for progress that will frame progress for at least the next decade and perhaps beyond.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use of learning strategies has been found to be one of the most important predictors of academic achievement, which makes the assessment of learning strategy use crucial. The first purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric properties (i.e., reliability and validity) of the learning strategies domain of the GOALS-S (Dowson & McInerney, 2004) with 8th grade students. The learning strategies domain of the GOALS-S items assess students' use of cognitive and metacognitive learning strategies. This study also examined the relationship between self-efficacy for self-regulated learning, learning strategy use, and math achievement. The data were collected from 399 eight grade students near the end of 2018-2019 academic year. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was used to evaluate the psychometrics properties of the GOALS-S. Following the CFA, the relationship between self-efficacy for self-regulated learning, learning strategy use, and math achievement was examined by using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results obtained from this study provided evidence for validity and reliability of the learning strategies domain of the GOALS-S. The data supported the hypothesized six-factor model with minor modifications. The results of the structural model indicated that learning strategy use had a direct impact on mathematics achievement. Also, self-efficacy for self-regulated had direct effect on mathematics achievement, as well as indirect effect on mathematics achievement mediated by learning strategy use. Discussion of the findings, implications for teachers, policy makers, and researchers, and limitations and future directions are presented.
