Abstract:
This study was designed to explore the computation choices made by 78 students in Years 5 to 7. The ability to choose and use a repertoire of computation methods is an important goal of mathematics education. While one might expect to find a great deal of research outlining the computation choices students make and why they make them, this was not the case; and as such it was decided to explore what computation choices students make and why they make them.

Abstract:
Of particular importance to mental health across the life span is our capacity to regulate neuroendocrine responses to stressful events via the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis. Prenatal exposure to maternal depression/anxiety may be among the earliest adverse experiences shown to influence the developing HPA system, possibly via changes in fetal serotonergic signaling. In addition, the developmental impact of prenatal exposure to serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SRI) antidepressants is often undistinguishable from prenatal maternal mood.

Abstract:
Computer-assisted interventions designed to remediate low numeracy and developmental dyscalculia (mathematical learning disability) have been utilised in preschools and kindergartens with some efficacy for over thirty years (Clements, 2002). A recent development in this field is ‘adaptive game’ technology, which adapts task difficulty online as children learn. The Number Race is the first such package for mathematics. Previous efficacy studies suggest its use results in an improvement in core measures of early numeracy, such as speed at enumerating 1-3 objects (subitizing) and comparison of nu

Childhood asthma is a significant health problem in Australia. The disease affects approximately 25% of children, of whom 5% require daily medication for the control of frequent or persistent symptoms. Many children who experience their first symptomatic episode of asthma prior to the age of 5 years continue to experience symptoms on an intermittent and variable basis throughout their childhood and adult years. The prevalence of asthma is increasing in Australia and other western countries, and the condition has been associated with high rates of mortality and morbidity. Ironically, these inc

SOR is frequently diagnosed by occupational therapists, and deep pressure is an important facet of the treatment of SOR by occupational therapists.
