The aims of this systematic review were to identify, describe, and synthesize the characteristics and effectiveness of self-regulated learning training programs on primary education students' self-regulated learning and academic achievement. The study implemented a systematic review protocol that encompassed both primary and complementary…

Gamification, characterized by the integration of game design elements into non-game environments, has gained popularity in classrooms due to its potential for increased engagement and enjoyment compared to traditional lecture-based teaching methods. While students generally exhibit positive attitudes towards gamification, its impact on academic…

Encouraging the idea of a growth mindset in which students believe that they can improve their ability, as opposed to a fixed mindset, has been suggested as an effective and relatively cheap approach to improving student attainment at school. This paper offers a comprehensive review of the evidence from growth mindset interventions. After a…

Undergraduate introductory human anatomy and human physiology courses are either taught as discipline-specific or integrated anatomy and physiology (A&P) sequences. An institution underwent a curricular revision to change the course approach from discipline-specific Human Anatomy and Human Physiology to an integrated A&P I and II sequence,…

Predictive modelling in the education domain can be utilised to significantly improve teaching and learning experiences. Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) generate a large volume of data that can be exploited to predict and evaluate student performance based on various factors. This paper has two broad aims. Firstly, to develop and tune several…

The management of problematic behaviors in schools is a growing challenge. Bullying and disruption negatively impact the educational community. In response, positive discipline methods are being implemented to improve the school environment. The aim of this study is to review and summarize the findings from recent research on this topic. To…

Purpose: We investigated the effects of classroom-based physical activity (CBPA) interventions on academic performance and assessed the impact of different CBPA elements on academic performance. Methods: Relevant experimental studies in four databases were searched from their inception to September 2022. Random effects models were used to compute…

The current scoping review synthesizes the literature on interventions targeting anxiety in individuals with a learning disability (LD). Specifically, the review identifies types of interventions, outcomes, and barriers to or facilitators of implementation of interventions by school staff. The available literature was analyzed using a descriptive…

A 'flipped classroom' creates a dynamic and effective learning environment where students learn basic knowledge at home and engage in active learning activities during the class. It has been widely used across different STEM (Science, Technology, Environment, Mathematics) disciplines. However, there is a lack of systematic and quantitative…

Multiple meta-analyses have now documented small positive effects of teacher professional development (PD) on pupil test scores. However, the field lacks any validated explanatory account of what differentiates more from less effective in-service training. As a result, researchers have little in the way of advice for those tasked with designing or…

Background: In recent years, the widespread use of technology in classrooms has encouraged the transition from traditional lecture methods to digital-based learning environments. Technological game-based learning platforms, such as Kahoot!, which are used to encourage students' active participation and interaction in learning environments, are…

In the proposed work, studies of supporting rural teachers were analysed and the main directions of professional self-development of a village teacher were identified. The program aims to assist village teachers in professional self-development. A program to support the self-development of rural teachers was proposed, which was experimentally…

This paper provides evidence on a large-scale teacher incentive program in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, which awarded group bonuses to teachers and school staff conditional on improvements in student performance. By using a difference-in-differences and triple-differences framework with a series of alternative counterfactual groups, I show that…

The systematic review explores the integration of gamification with the flipped classroom in basic education, combining game mechanics with flipped teaching methods to improve student engagement and motivation, and examines the evolution of scientific production between 2022 and 2024, using the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and…

This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the implemented Teacher Development Program (TDP), encompassing these modern approaches, in short-term (after 1 month) and more long-term perspectives (after 1 year). Data on the perceived effectiveness of TDP were collected through a survey. The participants included higher education instructors who…
