learning style, self efficacy and intrinsic motivation as predictors of iranian ielts reading comprehension
this thesis attempts to measure learning styles, self efficacy and intrinsic motivation as predictors of iranian ielts reading comprehension. in order to address this issue, a quantitative study was conducted on some randomly selected intact students at ferdowsi university. these two groups were assigned as they were undergraduate (ba=91) and graduate (ma =74) students; they were all aged betwe...
Comprehension and computation in Bayesian problem solving
Humans have long been characterized as poor probabilistic reasoners when presented with explicit numerical information. Bayesian word problems provide a well-known example of this, where even highly educated and cognitively skilled individuals fail to adhere to mathematical norms. It is widely agreed that natural frequencies can facilitate Bayesian inferences relative to normalized formats (e.g...
متن کاملLanguage learning as problem solving
We present here a system under development, the present goals of which are to assist (a) students in inductively learning a set of rules to generate sentences in French, and (b) psychologists in gathering data on natural language learning. Instead of claimin~ an all-encompassing model or theory, we prefer to elaborate a tool, which is general and flexible enough to permit the testing of various...
متن کاملWord Problem Solving in Contemporary Math Education: A Plea for Reading Comprehension Skills Training
Successfully solving mathematical word problems requires both mental representation skills and reading comprehension skills. In Realistic Math Education (RME), however, students primarily learn to apply the first of these skills (i.e., representational skills) in the context of word problem solving. Given this, it seems legitimate to assume that students from a RME curriculum experience difficu...
متن کاملText Integration and Mathematical Connections: A Computer Model of Arithmetic Word Problem Solving
Understanding arithmetic word problems involves a complex interaction of text comprehension and mathematical processes. This article presents a computer simulation designed to capture the working memory demands required in “bottomup” comprehension of arithmetic word problems. The simulation’s sentence-level parser and text integration component reflect the importance of processing the problem f...
