The objectives of this research are: (1) to develop a flipped classroom learning plan using inquiry-based learning on the topic of substance separation for Grade 8 students, to achieve effectiveness according to the 75/75 criteria; (2) to compare science process skills and learning achievement before and after implementing the developed learning…

Teachers can develop science literacy among pupils through Inquiry-Based Science Education. IBSE helps to evolve the inquiry skills necessary for understanding the world of science and nature. To be able to improve the level of inquiry skills systematically, we need to know the current level among pupils. For this reason, we designed a…

The capacity for mathematical reasoning, pivotal in grasping core math concepts, directly shapes a student's success in their mathematical studies. This study aimed to detail and analyzed how the search, solve, create, and share (SSCS) instructional framework impacts mathematical reasoning skills within the context of linear equations. We adopted…

Enhancing the effectiveness of short-duration teacher workshops is critical for improving science teaching and learning, particularly in the developing world. While project-based learning is known to enhance knowledge usability, its feasibility and optimal design within short-duration teacher workshops in the developing world is unclear. This…

This paper is a lesson study of the instruction of China's Natural Resources (the third unit of eighth-grade geography), and its objective is to examine the efficacy of inquiry-based learning in geography education. In the experimental lesson, we reorganized the teaching content by integrating the learning materials from the four sections of…

In the present study, the effects of using dynamic geometry software in active learning framework on students' problem posing skills and their views about problem posing were examined. The participants consisted of 16 eighth-grade students. Data were collected by problem posing tests, open-ended questions, student diaries, and dynamic geometry…

Non-formal learning settings like out-of-school labs provide students with insights into authentic learning situations. For example, in physics, students are engaged in experimenting as an authentic method. However, increasing the authenticity in experimentation can lead to overwhelming demands and hinder concept development and does not even need…

The present research investigates the effects of an active and experiential learning approach on eighth-grade students' mathematics achievement employing a quasi-experimental research design. A total of 231 students from four Slovenian primary schools participated in the study, with 101 students assigned to the experimental group (EG) and 130 to…

The use of guided inquiry-based learning (GIBL) in a manner designed to challenge individual students' unscientific conceptions of science, has been researched widely. However, few (if any) studies have investigated the implementation of GIBL in a manner designed to challenge the fundamental patterns of students' context-dependent unscientific…

Students believed physics was one of the most challenging sciences in education, and their interest in learning physics was lacking. Therefore, this study aims to enhance students' understanding and creativity in the STEAM learning system on electricity by creating a project (Paper Circuit) using the students' creativity at the junior high school…

This study aims to determine the predictive effect of attitudes toward digital technologies, gender, grade level, and internet usage time on project based virtual learning qualifications (PBVLQ) of secondary school students. The research design is a predictive correlational study. The sample of the research was 703 6th, 7th and 8th grade students…

Mathematical and computational thinking (CT) are closely interrelated, yet CT integration into mathematics instruction remains limited. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the teaching process for straight-line equations in enhancing students' CT skills and to propose improvements based on the findings. A qualitative case study…

In Vietnamese secondary education, traditional science teaching that focuses on theory over practical application presents a challenge to developing students' scientific competence, a key priority of the national curriculum. Scientific competence is broadly defined as the ability to explain phenomena, conduct investigations, and apply knowledge in…

This research presents an investigation on the utilization of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) with Project-Based Learning as experiment class treatment and project-based learning as control class treatment to investigate students' critical thinking in optical instruments lessons, with a particular focus on the development…

The objectives of this action research were: (1) To develop learning achievement in basic science subjects of grade 8 students who received an inquiry-based learning (IBL) management system combined with an educational game on the topic of solutions to pass the requirement of 70%; and (2) To study the satisfaction of grade 8 students toward the…
