This paper introduces Games-based Character Pedagogy (GBCP), a pedagogical model designed to integrate character education into Quality Physical Education (QPE). It explores the role of character development in education and how it can inform UNESCO's reform agenda for QPE. Building on the Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) model, GBCP…

Analytical thinking is a critical skill that facilitates logical and systematic problem-solving and decision-making. Moreover, it serves as a foundational pillar for effective learning and the advancement of skills across diverse academic disciplines. In other words, a lack of analytical thinking can significantly hinder students' learning…

Inquiry-based learning (IBL) represents a dynamic pedagogical approach in science education, driven by a foundation of deep theoretical constructs. This paper meticulously examines the cornerstone theoretical underpinnings of IBL, centering on constructivism, situated cognition, and cognitive load theories. Constructivism, epitomized by Piaget's…

This study aimed to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of the LADEC model in promoting future skills among undergraduate learners. The research objectives included: (1) analyzing the components of the LADEC model; (2) designing and implementing the model; (3) comparing the effectiveness of the LADEC model with the DTP model; and (4) assessing…

Project Based Learning (PjBL) has emerged as a promising approach in mathematics education. This study aims to analyze the implementation of project-based learning (PjBL) internationally in mathematics education and to identify the underlying learning theories, such as the method of writing an article through SLR. A systematic literature review…

Literature on primary source instruction between 2013 and 2023 features case studies from institutions able to support embedded archivists and scaffolded educational experiences. This article examines five common themes in the scholarship published within that time, including constructivism, the roles of digital and physical resources, and the…

Social competence refers to having the behaviors, social skills, and intellectual capabilities needed to thrive in society. This includes the capacity to create, nurture, and maintain social relationships in various areas of life. This study investigates the effect of the Collaborative Constructivist Approach (CCA) to teaching social science on…

Background: As highly interactive hands-on learning tools, robots can inspire new generations of mathematics students. However, to date, no comprehensive systematic reviews have been conducted on robot-assisted mathematics education from K-12 through higher education. Hence, it is important to explore the research evidence of robot-assisted…

The rapid advancement of digital technologies is prompting a necessary shift in traditional educational models, particularly in finance education. This study introduces the "Multi-Dimensional Situated Learning Model" (MD-SLM), which is rooted in constructivist theory and aims to enhance teaching strategies in university finance courses.…

The rise of aliteracy, the burgeoning impact of crowded leisure time for children, and the increasingly complex daily lives of parents all impact on promoting reading for pleasure (RfP) requiring how parents value RfP to be considered in sympathetic and sustainable ways. By investigating parents' experiences, this qualitative research elevated the…

Over the past 15 years, qualitative case study research has become more prominent in agricultural education. The first case study research appeared in the Journal of Agricultural Education (JAE) in 1997. To date, 33 qualitative case study research articles have been published in JAE. Additionally, case study research has become highly visible at…

This study explores the Yamanoko Program, a forest education initiative in Shiga, Prefecture, Japan, to examine how outdoor environmental education approaches can offer a transformative perspective on educational culture, fostering respect for and interconnectedness with more-than-human agency. The study aims to inspire discussions on…

This study constructs an Experiential Learning Management Model (ELMM) for early childhood education, rooted in social cognitive theory (SCT) and constructivist theory. ELMM integrates six key modules: Experiential Learning, Metacognitive Monitoring, Dynamic Assessment, Contextualized Learning, Social Interaction, and Double-Loop Learning Paths.…

This study investigates the effect of teaching enriched with astronomy activities and educational games on astronomy achievement in the 6th-grade Solar System and Eclipses unit. Fifty-seven students in the 6th grade of a secondary school in Türkiye participated in the study. Although the groups were formed randomly, since the students themselves…

This study aims to examine pre-service elementary mathematics teachers' knowledge of quadrilaterals and evaluate their understanding within the framework of Van Hiele's Geometric Thinking Levels. In particular, the study investigates how pre-service teachers define quadrilaterals and establish relationships between different types of…
