Ssemugenyi, Fred – Cogent Education, 2023
Using a mixed method, quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test non-equivalent group design, this study inquired into the possibilities of enhancing learners' cognitive abilities, with problem-based learning (PBL; -experimental) and lecture method (control) as predictor variables. Aided by the random scorecards, a group of 51 students was assigned to…

Su, King-Dow – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2022
This research used mixed effects to construct a PBL-STEM (problem-based learning with STEM) questionnaire with high validity and reliability. The benefits of PBL-STEM focused on cross-disciplinary and longitudinal research to analyze students' self-efficacy in life science. All 175 university students who attended this course as an elective…

Maryuningsih, Yuyun; Hidayat, Topik; Riand, R.; Rustaman, Nuryani Y. – Journal of Biological Education Indonesia (Jurnal Pendidikan Biologi Indonesia), 2022
Genetics is a subject that is quite difficult according to students. Various strategies and methods are used to understand genetics in learning to have genetic literacy. One way of increasing genetic literacy in students is to apply genetic problems based on an online discussion in genetics lectures. The research was conducted to determine the…
