This article provides robust empirical evidence for the association between science teachers' pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) and student achievement. Unlike previous studies, we employed two approaches (text-based vs. video-based tests) to assess if, and to what extent, teachers' PCK assessed by these two approaches are related to student…

This paper reports the results of research in which the objective was to explore the preconceptions of slope in seventh-grade students. Preconceptions are understood as students' knowledge prior to the formal teaching of a certain concept. For data collection, task-based interviews composed of ten tasks applied to 21 Mexican students were used.…

This article presents a series of open-ended tasks exploring the development of algebraic expressions suitable for exploration with Year 7 students. The tasks use a familiar tool, the hundreds chart, to aid the transition between representational tools and abstract ways of working. The tasks outline a developmental progression of patterns and…

The purpose of this study was to examine the mathematical creativity of gifted and non-gifted students through the indicators of creativity (fluency, flexibility, and originality). The study involved 12 secondary school students (six gifted and six non-gifted) from different cities in the Black Sea Region of Türkiye. The data were collected…

The purpose of this study is to ascertain how the four domains of self-debasing cognitive distortions, namely personalisation, catastrophising, overgeneralisation and selective abstraction could predict or inform bullying bystanders' emotional disturbance in reactions to witnessing bullying.

The present study offers an examination of a seventh-grade…

Technology has an essential role in the educational field. Technology-based mobile has the potential to improve education through Augmented Reality (AR). This study investigates the effect of mobile augmented reality on physics learning achievement and students' opinions on using this technology. The study used a convergent parallel pattern from…

The need for improving and evaluating students' cognitive skills, including problem-solving, has been highlighted in both the mathematics education literature and the curricula worldwide. The objective of this study was to assess the problem-solving skills of lower secondary school students using a teacher-based evaluation method, taking into…

While it is well established that positive peer relationships lead to positive outcomes, little is known about the mediating role of school motivation on the association between perceived peer support and school achievement among middle grades students. Even less is known about the effect of gender on this mediation. The current study examined…

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of robotic coding education on cognitive skills awareness and learning responsibilities. The training prepared in this process was designed and implemented by subject experts. The training has been organized as 4 hours a week to last 4 weeks. In this study, both quantitative and qualitative research…

This study was aimed at eliminating the difficulties in teaching the concepts and the students' conceptual understanding in the "Force and Energy" unit through semantic mapping. The study was conducted using the action research method. This study was conducted in the control group using the existing learning method in the science…
