The aim of this study was to design a learning environment supported by a problem-based learning method and to obtain students' views on this process. In this context, the Database Management Systems course was taught according to the problem-based learning method. The participants of the study consisted of 25 students from the 2nd-grade students…

This research aims to find out: (1) the more effective learning model on students' divergent-thinking skills; (2) the better adversity quotient on students' divergent-thinking skills; (3) the better adversity quotient to improve students' divergent-thinking skills in each learning model; and (4) the better learning model to improve students'…

Self-efficacy and critical thinking represent two vital components for university graduates in the 21st century learning. However, several studies reported that these two important outcome predictors were unsatisfactory. This study aimed at investigating the effects of problem-based learning (PBL) on pre-service teachers' self-efficacy and…

Since its inception, the College of Medicine and Medical Sciences (CMMS) at the Arabian Gulf University (AGU) has adopted the problem based (PBL) pedagogy in Medicine relying on paper-based trigger material. However, delivery of such paper-based triggers during tutorial sessions was not optimal to promote medical student interactivity and…

As a typical learning method which is grounded from a scientific approach, problem-based learning (PBL) does not only enhance students' critical thinking but also helps them actively construct their knowledge and skill. The objectives of this study were to investigate the impact of PBL on (1) students' speaking skill and (2) their attitude toward…

This study aims to examine the effect of problem-based learning and tacit knowledge on problem-solving skills when students study in the laboratory. The method employed in this research was Quasi-Experimental Design. Data collection techniques were questionnaires and tests. Seventy-seven students were taken as the research participant and divide…

This research has been conducted to analyze students' problem-solving abilities in direct current electricity in STEM-based learning. The implementation of STEM in this research is to train the domain of scientific practices and engineering practices that are associated with model problems and project-based learning. The research method used was…

The consequence of the assessment for the research statistics course at the department of physics Education in Universitas Jambi demonstrates the students' capacities to hold the idea of the mastery of research statistical concept is very low. It winds up one of the shortcomings for them to finish their final assignment. Therefore, the researcher…

It is important for students to experience STEM education for countries to be able to increase their scientific research capacity and economic progress. The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of problem based STEM education on the perception of middle-school 5th grade students of engineering, engineers and technology. In the…

The purpose of this study was to discover what students in the geography department at the Faculty of Arts and Letters thought about the European Union (EU) projects. In the study, a case study pattern, one of the qualitative research methods, was adopted. In the creation of the research group, the maximum diversity sampling process, which is one…

The pre-service teacher followed in this paper aimed to act as an agent of change during a time of reform in Irish secondary mathematics education. A teacher-researcher led action research project was conducted to depict the reality of the situation regarding the implementation of mathematical problem solving from a variety of perspectives-namely…

Purpose: This research aimed to examine the usefulness of a microbiology digital handout as a teaching material validated by experimental research in the improvement of science process skills and cognitive learning outcome of students. Methodology: The study comprises two methods: experimental research and development research. The experimental…

Purpose: The acceleration of the transformation of education and learning technology due to the COVID-19 pandemic has spawned various online learning program platforms to support and maintain the quality of graduates. The limitation of face-to-face meetings (offline) encourages many parties to develop models and applications of effective and…

This paper denotes the findings from an action research project, which applied problem-based learning (PBL) in linguistics courses in an MA TESOL program in Vietnam. The project aimed to study the extent to which the use of problem-based tasks in semantic courses could promote students' employment of higher-order thinking skills in their learning.…

Our purpose in this paper is to shed light on the intricacies of designing and enacting curricular innovations aiming to enhance students' interest in science and their understandings of STEM careers. We present the design and describe the implementation of a set of STEM career-oriented curriculum materials referred to as career-based scenarios. A…
