In recent years, when computational thinking (CT) has become increasingly important, utilizing machine learning (ML) techniques provides a revolutionary method for comprehending and improving cognitive skills for young students. However, few studies deepen the process of learning ML and CT. This exploratory study aims to investigate the impact of…

Computational thinking (CT) has been increasingly recognized as a vital skill for fostering students' problem-solving and digital literacy. Preparing and motivating preservice teachers (PSTs) to effectively teach CT is, therefore, essential. Grounded in expectancy-value theory, this mixed methods research explored the impact of a workshop using…

Transmission teaching which centres around traditional lecturing discounts the variety of different learners and individual aptitudes. Physical Geography as a discipline has historically provided a range of teaching methods beyond lecturing which embrace field and laboratory activities, frequently adapting new research technologies to further…

This article describes an interactive activity for the first week of an undergraduate Strategic Management (SM) or Business Policy and Strategy (BPS) course. This activity is designed to foster student engagement, which is critical to both the teaching of theory and the practice of strategy while reinforcing course learning objectives regarding…

Conceptual, emotional, and political challenges are entangled in environmental issues, yet science education often focuses exclusively on the conceptual dimension. To address this, we developed a design workshop to study how high-school youth could integrate all three in their creations. Specifically, we explored how youth negotiated visions of…

In South African secondary schools, critical reading is encouraged by the CAPS policy document, but still some learners, even at university level, find it difficult to utilise critical reading, a skill that is believed by scholars to promote critical thinking skills. This alternative, valuable kind of text study called critical reading escalates…

Purpose: This study aims to explore how network visualization provides opportunities for learners to explore data literacy concepts using locally and personally relevant data. Design/methodology/approach: The researchers designed six locally relevant network visualization activities to support students' data reasoning practices toward…

The ubiquity and ease with which microbial cells disperse over space is a key concept in microbiology, especially in microbial ecology. The phenomenon prompted Baas Becking's famous "everything is everywhere" statement that now acts as the null hypothesis in studies that test the dispersal limitation of microbial taxa. Despite covering…

This research aims to examine the effectiveness of entrepreneurship learning with the Stanford D School design thinking approach and to make students more actively involved in learning activities so that their learning experiences can develop creative skills and entrepreneurial alertness. The underlying theory of the design thinking approach comes…

Business schools have a responsibility for educating global citizens capable of understanding and addressing the major societal challenges of the 21st century. However, working on complex societal problems within business school curricula remains a challenge. This teaching brief presents a learning project that helps instructors introduce…

A primary objective of occupational therapy education is to facilitate development of clinical reasoning skills. These skills are complex and difficult to cultivate in classroom settings, therefore educators often use experiential learning activities to support clinical reasoning development. Most of the literature about experiential learning…

The development of experiential learning methodologies is gaining attention, due to its contributions to enhancing education quality. It focuses on developing competencies, and build-up added values, such as creative and critical thinking skills, with the aim of improving the quality of learning. The interdisciplinary mechatronics field…

The purpose of this study was to compare two treatments, namely the use of hands-on activity media and computer-based media on the conceptual understanding of mathematics and the reasoning ability of junior high school students. In order to obtain complete information about the comparison of the two, researchers also use groups without learning…

Remake activities reuse and recycle waste materials, working them into something useful. The experiential activity seems to be prevalent, yet limited literature covers creative ways of thinking about pedagogical approaches. This paper examines some of the emerging waste education literature before exploring further possibilities for remake…

Design thinking can be broadly defined as a set of creative skills to understand and problem-solve ambiguous and complex problems, and a practice that places humans at the heart of the design process. Such collaborative ways of design thinking and design-doing are much needed to address twenty-first century challenges such as climate change.…
