Methods: For the purposes of the research study, a pedagogical…

This study aims to examine the effect of problem posing-based active learning activities on students' problem-posing skills and problem-solving achievement. To this aim, an experimental design with pre-test post-test control group was employed. The participants consisted of two groups of sixth graders, one experimental group (N=23) and one control…

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of Project-Based Learning (PBL) and Flipped Classroom Model (FCM) supported by PBL on sixth grade students' academic achievement, retention of knowledge, and individual innovation competence. A quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test control group was used in the study. While the…

We investigated the effects of guided inquiry-based laboratory activities on the perceptions of the research skills and inquiry learning skills in science of 5th grade students. The sample of this study consisted of 38 students enrolled in a public secondary school located in the northwest part of Türkiye. This study is based on the non-equivalent…

The present study aimed to test the effect of the problem-posing instruction experimentally based on the extended active learning framework on the development of Turkish middle school sixth-grade students' (N = 19) problem-posing and -solving skills with whole-number operations. The training programme was completed in 13 lessons over a seven-week…

STEM education is widely recognized as a powerful means of cultivating well-rounded future talent. However, challenges such as difficulties in observation, declining learning interests, and the lack of teaching resources present obstacles to the implementation of STEM education in China. Virtual Reality (VR), with its immersive, interactive, and…

In recent years, inquiry-based learning and collaborative learning are widely used in education. They have great effects on cultivating students' core competencies. However, most studies only focus on their individual effects. Little research has been done on how their combination helps students with teamwork and problem-solving. This study used a…

Background/purpose: This study investigates the efficacy of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) as a pedagogical framework for teaching poetry in Indonesian elementary schools. Despite the prevalence of PjBL in Western contexts, there is a dearth of empirical research on its effects in Indonesian educational settings Materials/methods: This quantitative…

This study combines collaborative learning and inquiry-based learning, analyzes the characteristics of fourth-grade mathematics textbook, and designs an instructional model based on collaborative learning and inquiry-based learning. Based on this instructional model, this study adopts a quasi-experimental design, involving 142 fourth-grade…

Using an explanatory sequential mixed methods approach, this secondary analysis investigated the relations among classroom dialogic interaction, fifth-grade students' reading achievement, and teachers' dialogic stances. First, quantitative analyses of time-sampled lesson observations and state reading test scores suggested that the more class time…

Background: The theory of embodied cognition claims that body interaction with the environment change how we think and constitute cognition. Accordingly, active learning enriches learning experiences which in turn lead to better learning. Purpose: Although learning by moving one's body is often regarded as active learning, not all body movements…

The learning model used by educators only transmits knowledge and does not provide opportunities for students to interact, causing them to lose time to develop their experience in the collaborative learning process. This research aims to improve collaboration skills by implementing a problem-based learning model in grade IV elementary school. The…

Regulation in effective learning can achieve knowledge and understanding of the material. However, in reality in the field, student self-regulation is still low. This is urgent to research because there are differences in theory, expectations, and reality in the field, so the research aims to analyze the influence of psychological factors on…

This study examines the impact of integrating Design Thinking and Maker Education into project-based learning (PBL) activities on primary school students' self-efficacy and motivation in Science, Technology, and Design. Drawing on Bandura's social cognitive theory, the study addresses the gap in empirical research at the primary education level,…
