Background: School professionals, including classroom teachers, school administrators, psychologists, teachers' aides, and nurses, often interact with students with concussions. To ensure they have the knowledge to identify and manage concussions, the U.S. Centers of Disease Control and Prevention developed the HEADS UP to Schools online training.…

No scientific concept in the twenty-first century has garnered more attention from scholars outside the scientific community than the Anthropocene. Despite the official rejection by the geological community in March 2024 of the proposal for an Anthropocene Epoch as a formal unit of the Geological Time Scale, it is expected to remain an invaluable…

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the Jigsaw technique on nursing students' learning and retention of knowledge about employee safety. The study was conducted between December 2022 and January 2023 with 84 first-year students enrolled in the Nursing Department of a state university in a province of Turkey. Data were…

Problem-solving is a key aspect of mathematics instruction. Although it is part of several national curricula, its implementation is still being vastly explored. The present research, which is part of a larger project, aimed to investigate the effect of using problem-oriented instruction in grade 3 of primary school on students' mathematical…

This study aimed to compare the effect between game-based approaches (GBAs) and traditional skill approaches on decision-making, knowledge and motor skill in physical education students and athletes. A systematic review and meta-analysis of experimental studies available before October 2023 was conducted. The initial search yielded 8431 articles,…

This study used a mixed-methods approach to explore the impact of a fraction intervention on 46 sixth-grade students, including 13 with learning disabilities. Twenty-four students were enrolled in the classroom that received intervention, the remaining students participated in standard instruction. The intervention focused on sorting visual…

This investigation was performed to determine the impacts of the STEM approach in environmental education (EE) on environmental attitudes and knowledge levels and to examine student opinions on the STEM approach in EE. The investigation was implemented in a government school in Turkey in 12 weeks using a mixed method. A Quasi-experimental design…

Honey bee pollination of specialty crops is essential to agriculture and yet there are almost no university instructional programs to train the next generation of beekeepers. One reason for this lack of university investment in apiculture instruction is that there may not be enough students located at universities interested in the pursuit of…

This study explores the relationship between the self-confidence and content knowledge of undergraduate students in a large enrollment geoscience course following an active-learning think-pair-share (TPS) activity, and whether high confidence necessarily leads to overconfidence. We used a pre-experimental, one group pre-test -- post-test design,…

Climate change is a major concern to undergraduate students. Understanding climate change relies on an understanding of polar regions. However, courses on polar regions are rare at undergraduate institutions. Polar ENgagement through GUided INquiry (PENGUIN) modules were designed to give students experience with polar research in a variety of…
