TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the question, "How to create a child friendly psychosocial learning environment in teaching young learners mathematics?" They report on lessons taught during action research collaboration between Joel, a male primary mathematics teacher, and I, a female mathematics educator.
Abstract: This article aims to explore the question, ‘How to create a child friendly psychosocial learning environment in teaching young learners mathematics?'. I report on lessons taught during action research collaboration between Joel, a male primary mathematics teacher, and I, a female mathematics educator. I used field-notes, journal entries, and lesson and interview transcripts to construct vignettes of two of the lessons taught by Joel in grade six mathematics teaching in a rural school. The vignettes are constructed using the strategy of narrative analysis. I, thereafter, explore the question in more detail using analysis of narrative strategy. It was found that young learners (aged 11years to 12 years) could direct their own learning if offered opportunities to construct, refine and use their own representations in solving mathematics problems. The psychosocial learning environment created promoted learners’ engagement in mathematical reasoning, and search for mathematical connections. This process encompassed a caring attitude, openness and a relaxed mood. Hence, I offer some implications for mathematics teachers with respect to classroom practices, and the teacher-learner interpersonal relationship. DOI: 10.5901/mjss.2014.v5n23p1048

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate examples of cultural artefacts in the preparation of a mathematics lesson, which include cultural dwellings, clothing, games and artworks, and find that participants used different examples of kulturele artefakte in 'n wiskundeles.
Abstract: Suid-Afrika met sy diverse kulturele groepe leen hom tot 'n ryk verskeidenheid kulturele artefakte wat op wiskunde gebaseer is. Wiskunde word onder meer volgens die Verdere Onderwys- en Opleidingkurrikulum- en assesseringsbeleidsverklaring gedefinieer as 'n menslike aktiwiteit wat wiskundige ondersoeke in fisiese en sosiale verskynsels insluit en goed aanpas by etnowiskunde. Onderwysers uit die verskillende kulturele groepe se kennis oor kulturele artefakte is egter beperk en daar word nie voldoende aandag tydens die opleiding van onderwysers hieraan gewy nie. Die artikel het ten doel om voorbeelde van kulturele artefakte in die voorbereiding van 'n wiskundeles te ondersoek. Die studie is gesitueer in 'n sosio-kulturele konteks. Negentien wiskunde-onderwysstudente uit verskillende kulturele groepe, wat ingeskryf is vir 'n B.Ed.-honneursgraad in wiskunde-onderwys, is genooi om deel te neem. 'n Kwalitatiewe navorsingsontwerp is gebruik, met navorsingsverslae en een-tot-een-onderhoude as data-insamelingsinstrumente. Die wiskunde-onderwysstudente het 'n navorsingsprojek uitgevoer wat van hulle vereis het om kulturele artefakte in 'n wiskundeles in te sluit. Die data is geanaliseer volgens temas, subtemas en kodes. Daar is bevind dat die deelnemers verskillende voorbeelde van kulturele artefakte gebruik het wat kulturele vestings, kledingstukke, speletjies en kunswerke insluit. Die artikel dra by tot die bekendstelling van kulturele artefakte in 'n wiskundeles. Examples of cultural artefacts in the preparation of a mathematics lesson. South Africa, with its diverse cultural groups, has a rich variety of cultural artefacts based on mathematics. Mathematics, according to the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement for Mathematics in the Further Education and Training Phase, is defined as a human activity, which includes mathematical investigations in physical and social phenomena, well aligned with ethno mathematics. Teachers from various cultural groups, however, have limited knowledge of cultural artefacts and this knowledge does not receive sufficient attention during teacher training. The purpose of this article is to investigate examples of cultural artefacts in the preparation of a mathematics lesson. The study is situated in a socio-cultural context. Nineteen mathematics student-teachers from different cultural groups enrolled for a B.Ed. Honours degree, were invited to participate. A qualitative research design, with research reports and one-on-one interviews as data collection instruments, was adopted. The mathematics student-teachers conducted a research project that expected from them to include cultural artefacts in a mathematics lesson. The data was analysed according to themes, subthemes and codes. Findings reveal that participants used different examples of cultural artefacts, which include cultural dwellings, clothing, games and artworks. The article contributes to the introduction of cultural artefacts in a mathematics lesson.

TL;DR: PISA 2006 as discussed by the authors analyzes the impact of factores intangibles on the aprendizaje de alumnos. Andres et al. analyzes how these factores affect the performance of students.
Abstract: En este articulo trataremos la forma en que los factores intangibles pueden afectar al aprendizaje de los alumnos. El interes, el entretenimiento durante la realizacion de la tarea, asi como la idea que los alumnos poseen de sus propias posibilidades para enfrentarse a determinados problemas pueden llegar a ser mas relevantes incluso que el disponer de ciertas condiciones materiales. PISA 2006 recoge, entre otros, datos sobre la actitud y la implicacion de los alumnos respecto a la ciencia. Analizados con modelos de Ecuaciones Estructurales y con Dual Scaling permiten valorar el peso de los distintos intangibles en el rendimiento academico. El estudio se centra en datos referidos a Espana.

TL;DR: In this article, penelitian ini dapat menghasilkan instrumen emotional learning berdasarkan konseptual and dimensi ying valid untuk digunakan.
Abstract: Artikel ini membahas kondisi emosi siswa dalam pembelajaran di kelas, hubungan siswa, teman sebaya, dan guru menjadi salah satu fenomena yang sering ditunjukkan. Berbagai masalah sering ditemukan di kelas, hal tersebut muncul karena kurang dipahaminya kondisi emosional siswa dalam proses pembelajaran. Pentingnya pengukuran melalui instrumen emotional learning versi Indonesia tentu harus dikaji secara teoritik. Tujuan penelitian ini dapat menghasilkan instrumen emotional learning berdasarkan konseptual dan dimensi yang valid untuk digunakan. Instrumen tersebut hasil modifikasi dari skala Learning Environment Research (LER) Questionnaire on Classroom Emotional Climate. Penelitian ini adalah kualitatif menggunakan kajian pustaka. Subjek, yaitu: tiga pakar penilai dipilih secara simple random sampling dan berdasarkan pertimbangan bahwa subjek dianggap ahli dalam memberikan penilaian. Instrumen emotional learning dilakukan pengujian validitas konstruk oleh tiga pakar penilai, analisis dengan deskriptif kualitatif. Hasil diperoleh 43 item instrumen emotional learning dari penilaian pakar memenuhi validitas secara konstruk dengan tujuh dimensi dari skala LER, yaiut: Care, Control, Clarify, Challenge, Captivate, Confer, dan Consolidate.

TL;DR: For a long time, the authors have had the gnawing desire to convey the broad motivational significance of the attributional conception that I have espoused and to present fully the argument that this framework has earned a rightful place alongside other leading theories of motivation.
Abstract: For a long time I have had the gnawing desire to convey the broad motivational sig nificance of the attributional conception that I have espoused and to present fully the argument that this framework has earned a rightful place alongside other leading theories of motivation. Furthermore, recent investigations have yielded insights into the attributional determinants of affect, thus providing the impetus to embark upon a detailed discussion of emotion and to elucidate the relation between emotion and motivation from an attributional perspective. The presentation of a unified theory of motivation and emotion is the goal of this book. My more specific aims in the chapters to follow are to: 1) Outline the basic princi ples that I believe characterize an adequate theory of motivation; 2) Convey what I perceive to be the conceptual contributions of the perspective advocated by my col leagues and me; 3) Summarize the empirical relations, reach some definitive con clusions, and point out the more equivocal empirical associations based on hypotheses derived from our particular attribution theory; and 4) Clarify questions that have been raised about this conception and provide new material for still further scrutiny. In so doing, the building blocks (if any) laid down by the attributional con ception will be readily identified and unknown juries of present and future peers can then better determine the value of this scientific product."
