This research aimed to explore the dimensions and implications of the early use and integration of metaverses in public high schools in the region of the Altos de Chiapas, Mexico, through a sequential mixed methods approach. Initially, a standardized survey was administered to a stratified probabilistic sample of 1402 students from various schools…

Plant morphology courses develop students' understanding of plant structures and identification skills through mini-research activities. Effective species identification requires a literature review and the ability to find, evaluate, and use relevant information. This qualitative study examines students' information literacy skills in completing…

Purpose: Creating active learning opportunities requires building a learning culture in which the instructor plays the role of a facilitator, leaving the ultimate responsibility of learning to the student. The question, however, is whether this is happening in practice. This study aims to answer this question through instructors' perceptions of…

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…

Previous research has demonstrated that stereotypes associated with the female gender can impact technology and engineering education results. However, it remains unclear whether these stereotypes affect other relevant factors in technology and engineering education performance. The research used quantitative methods to investigate the correlation…

The implementation of project-based learning programs that are in line with the concept of 21st century learning is very important in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 for vocational schools. However, in practice in the field, the learning results in vocational learning programs at vocational schools that implement Project-Based Learning…

In university education, lecturers often adopt didactic lectures in undergraduate calculus classes. This method has been judged for making students passive recipients of calculus knowledge who cannot construct their own knowledge of the discipline. One way to make didactic lecture more interactive and engaging in calculus class is to encourage…

STEM education is gaining more attention due to its significant contribution to educational development. The authors employed bibliometric analysis to determine how STEM education research was developing. The study aims to present an up-to-date overview of the STEM education research landscape in the context of higher education from 2002 to 2022.…

Background/purpose: The contemporary educational landscape, shaped by technological advancements, demands that pre-service teachers cultivate creative thinking to design engaging learning experiences. This study addresses this need by investigating the efficacy of a pedagogical model that integrates Project-Based Learning (PjBL) and e-modules. The…

This study examines student learning outcomes and engagement in a high-tech active learning environment compared to a low-tech active learning environment at both the individual lesson and overall course levels. A quasi-experimental design was employed, where two sections of students in a college Microeconomics course experienced a high-tech…

This study highlights the importance and effects of developing geographical thinking through the conception and creation of a 2D representation of an ideal city plan. The aim is to identify and correct possible gaps in students' understanding of urban space, plans, and maps, and to validate their prior knowledge, which will serve as the foundation…
