Chemistry is an essential subject for most science-based undergraduate courses in universities; as such, it is a basic requirement for secondary school students aspiring to study science-related courses in universities. However, the subject has historically been linked to high failure rates and underperformance of students in secondary school…

This study is aimed to understand the connections between didacticians' meta-didactical praxeologies for the design and implementation of a teacher professional development program and their documentation work for the program itself. Didacticians are mathematics education researchers with the role of teacher educators. Data presents a case study,…

We consider the effect of teaching practices on the persistence of school-entry age effects caused by rigid cutoff dates for school eligibility in Spain. We document significant school-entry age effects for the same cohort of students when they were in elementary and secondary school. Then, we test whether school-entry age effects at age 15 are…

Developing students' self-regulated learning (SRL) is crucial for nurturing the life-long learners needed in modern and future society. This study adopted structural equation modelling to explore the relationships among self-regulatory climate, group regulation in project-based learning (PBL) and individual regulatory ability. The results indicate…

This research aims to examine the effect of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) supported research-inquiry-based learning approach on the scientific creativity of 7th grade students. A pre-test and post-test quasi-experimental design with the control group was adopted into the research. The participants of this research were 64…

The role of ChatGPT and higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) as predictors of physics inquiry among uppersecondary students has yet to be widely explored. Therefore, this research aimed to examine upper-secondary students' role in ChatGPT (convenience and quality (CQ), motivation and engagement (ME), and accuracy and trust (AT)) and HOTS as…

Separating students in a variety of ways from one another in school systems based on either their perceived abilities or the part they may play in the future world is a codified component of systemic public educational systems. Much pontificating and research has been devoted to reflecting on these stratifying and segregating practices, especially…

Socioscientific-issues based instruction can promote science to students as a tool for necessary learning in the disruptive world. This instruction helps students critique and response as its nature of science, gaining higher-ordered thinking, and discussing with scientific reasoning. The objectives of this study were to compare learning…

This study sought to examine whether teachers' and educational administrators' conceptions of inquiry promote or constrain inquiry-based science teaching in junior high schools. The study also explored any connections between participants' conceptions of scientific inquiry, inquiry teaching, and inquiry learning. Multiple-case study involving…

Teachers are key agents in the political socialisation of adolescents. Therefore, knowledge about teachers' beliefs concerning citizenship is essential, as these beliefs likely relate to how educators socialise young people via preferred modes of teaching. Studying the link between teachers' citizenship norms and associated teaching styles can…

The relationship between inquiry-based learning and science self-efficacy was analysed using data from 57 countries and economics participating in the 2015 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). This analysis generated a mediating--moderating model, which involved the mediating role of science interest and the moderating role of…

The benefits of peer tutoring in mathematics have repeatedly been proven at different educational levels. Nevertheless, mathematics teachers' perceptions towards this methodology and whether they are adequately trained to implement the practice is information that remains uncertain. Surveys and questionnaires directed at teachers regarding peer…

Research studies aimed at finding a more efficient model of teaching biology are still sporadic and inconsistent in the contemporary literature. The main aim of the research was to examine the correlation between the application of teaching strategies in biology teaching and students' school achievements, depending on how much the teacher respects…

Aim/Purpose: This study aims to explore the innovative integration of machine learning techniques into project-based learning rooted in Malay ethnoscience in Jambi, Indonesia. The research introduces a novel framework that utilizes educational data mining to personalize culturally responsive STEM education in under-resourced public schools.…

This study aims to examine the moderating effect of teacher feedback on the associations among inquiry-based science teaching and learning practices and students' science-related attitudes and beliefs. The data set included 9, 841 15-year-old students from four Chinese provinces (Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, and Guangdong) who took part in the…
