Background: There is a growing emphasis on integrating engineering design into K-12 science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. Prior studies have primarily examined the impact of engineering design on student learning outcomes or employed frequency-based static statistical analyses, rather than focusing on student learning…

Recent evidence has shown that eliciting confidence ratings can affect cognitive performance--a so-called reactivity effect. Several mechanisms have been proposed to account for reactivity, but currently there is only indirect evidence about why confidence ratings are reactive. Here, we explore the strategic changes in cognitive processes that…

A key challenge in CSCL research is to find ways to support learners in becoming effective collaborators. While the effectiveness of external collaboration scripts is well established, there is a need for research into support that acknowledges learners' autonomy during collaboration. In the present study, we compare an external collaboration…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore the extent to which the concept of learning organization can support the embedding of responsible innovation (RI) in organizations. Design/methodology/approach: Based on literature in the fields of corporate social responsibility, learning organizations and quadruple helix collaborations, the…

Retirement is rarely conceptualised in terms of learning and development. However, as the end of professional activity approaches, many people begin to reflect deeply on the past, present, and future of their lives. This potentially profound reflection involves a complex process of learning and development to which research has paid too little…

The article explores the importance of university students' knowledge of the world as an essential prerequisite for facing digital, ecological and human transitions. A study of 50 third-year students of primary education sciences investigates (a) familiarity with reflection during learning; (b) the influence of artificial intelligence in the…

The core function of science education is to equip students with scientific literacy, enabling them to understand complex environmental challenges and actively engage in proenvironmental behaviors. Therefore, understanding students' conceptions of environmental education is crucial for advancing environmental education. In this study, we explored…

Despite a proliferation of research on generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) and its applications in higher education (HE), our understanding of the transformative processes where students create productive and ethically grounded uses of GenAI and how AI mediates students' sensemaking is still limited. Based on an empirical investigation of…

Recent research highlights that external feedback alone does not lead to improvements unless students process and use it internally, emphasising the need to shift from a teacher-centred to a student-centred approach. While previous studies have underscored the importance of students generating feedback for their own use and explored effective…

This research aims to explore both the individual and combined relationships between the use of GeoGebra and productive disposition with students' strategic competence. The use of GeoGebra involves teacher-led activities designed to assist students in managing and engaging with learning, serving as a tool to enhance mathematics learning outcomes.…

Drawing on reflective data from Taiwanese EFL university students, this study investigated how learners interpreted and applied Oxford's Strategic Self-Regulation (S2R) Model in an authentic classroom context. During an 18-week semester, students submitted reflective entries documenting their engagement with 19 S2R strategies. A total of 681…

The ability to properly evaluate one's own academic progress has long been considered a predictor of academic success. However, its distinctive role in the context of computational mathematics remains underexplored. Grounded in social cognitive theory, this study investigates the critical role of self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies in…

Online courses have become an increasingly common feature of the higher education landscape, expanding access and offering flexibility for students. Yet, they also pose unique challenges. Research has documented concerning performance gaps between students enrolled in face-to-face and online courses, while faculty have reported difficulties…

As a remedial measure to human-induced climate change, it is imperative to develop intrinsic altruistic values and adequate knowledge of environmental phenomena and behavior to act in favor of the environment. The study aims to assess the effect of an Environmental Education Program (EEP) based on empathy, reflective thinking, and information on…

Background: Psychology instructors frequently assign writing-to-learn exercises that include personal reflection. Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) can write text that passes for humans in other domains. Objective: Do students and faculty rate a reflection written by GenAI differently than reflections written by students? Do students and…
