The primary objective of translation is to accurately render the meaning of the source text into the target language. However, many translation students frequently employ inaccurate translation methods when translating between English and Arabic. This study investigates the effectiveness of the cooperative work procedure in improving translation…

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of cooperative learning (CL) on the academic achievement of student teachers. A mixed-methods sequential explanatory design was implemented in which quantitative data were collected first, followed by qualitative data to clarify the results of the experimental study. Achievement test,…

The present study examined the effectiveness of a cooperative skill intervention program using theme-based joint block play for young children. Thirty-two 4--5 years old preschoolers from Shanghai, China, were assigned to the experimental group while thirty-two children comprised the comparison group. The experimental group was engaged in an…

The aim of this research was to investigate the synergistic effects of peer collaboration and graphic organisers (i.e. mind maps) in Hong Kong science classrooms. Over two hundred Grade Four (i.e. Primary Four) students were assigned to different pedagogical groups, namely, "individualised learning with mind mapping," "collaborative…

Self-directed learning (SDL) often drives learners to engage with what they want to learn. Thus, investigating teaching-learning strategies that drive SDL gains importance in this technology-driven era. The present study investigates the impact of online cooperative learning (OCL) strategies on SDL skills among pre-service teachers (PST). The…

This paper aims to investigate the antecedents of how crowdfunded projects succeed over crowdsourcing platforms (CFPs) on the Internet. As CFPs make quite a large number of open innovations feasible, little is known about knowledge sharing and cross-project learning (CPL) in association with the success of crowdfunded projects. No study has…

Background: Early childhood education (ECE) is crucial in cultivating creativity, especially in today's tech-savvy world. This study explores the impact of collaborative project-based learning (PjBL) with computer and play motivation on kindergarten children's creativity. Aim: Our research aimed to determine if collaborative PjBL, combined with…

Grouping of people and/or things in school can involve challenging pedagogical problems and is a recurrent issue in research literature. Grouping of pupils sometimes aids learning, but detailed video-based analysis of how teachers (and pupils) group or ungroup (termed '(un)grouping') in classrooms is rare. This multimodal classroom interaction…

While existing research has highlighted the benefits of reading and analysing comics in fostering critical thinking and multimodal literacy, few scholars have examined the pedagogical value of involving students in actively creating their own comics. Beyond developing technical and artistic skills, comics creation engages students in the affective…

Although previous studies have highlighted the positive effects of cooperative learning (CL) on academic achievement as well as the learning environment, they have not shown how this happens. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of CL in the field of nursing, as well as to identify students' perceptions of how these effects…

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a rapid transformation of Teacher Professional Education (TPE) in Indonesia from face-to-face to online. Although the programme is run online, learning activities, namely collaborative learning among programme participants, practitioners, and experts, are increasingly being encouraged. This study attempts to…

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) for teachers can improve teaching and wider school practices. However, within developing country contexts, research on the CPD practices of vocational teachers remains limited. This study therefore investigated the CPD practices of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) teachers in Kenya,…

This research examines the use of teaching triads to the classroom-wide implementation of "Stay, Play & Talk" a peer-mediated social skills program for children in an inclusive Kindergarten classroom in Ontario, Canada. This research used prompting through peers to increase initiations and responses between children identified as…

Scholarly contextualisation: There is a need to fill gaps in knowledge from secondary school before starting university curriculum. Cooperative learning, a form of active learning, implicitly includes peer-to-peer teaching, and is a good candidate when filling the knowledge gaps relies on high student involvement. Aim and Problem: 1) We describe a…

This article addresses the need for empirical research comparing students' experiences of learning in different hybrid spaces in higher education that blend digital spaces, physical spaces and learning interactions. We focus on hybrid spaces formed around Zoom, non-immersive virtual reality (VR), and on-campus with a telepresence robot (TPR)…
