With the continuous development of education informatization, STEM education has become the global trend of education. Project-based learning is widely discussed and applied as a learning method suitable for combination with STEM education concept. Currently, the problem of "how to teach" in STEM education is widely focused on two…

Centering student perspectives, this mixed methods study examines a project-based learning (PBL) unit enacted across five inclusive 9th grade English language arts (ELA) classes in one urban high school. We share how this unit offered students opportunities to experience new types of challenging but rewarding assignments in multimodal accessible…

This research investigated the effect of project-based learning (PjBL) on students' conceptual understanding of mechanics. For this purpose, a quasi-experimental research design was conducted with 50 ninth-grade students at Nazarbayev Intellectual School in Kazakhstan. We used the force concept inventory test to measure students' conceptual…

Numeracy skills are integral to the National Assessment, serving as a benchmark for gauging learning success. In addition to cognitive aspects, the affective aspect crucial in learning is self-efficacy. However, according to PISA 2018 data, the average score for numeracy skills of Indonesian students ranks in the bottom 6. The existing condition…

Mathematics is the language and foundation for the science, engineering, and technological fields that define and enhance our lives in the 21st century. Proficiency in math requires problem solving, logical reasoning, and critical thinking skills that are essential to success in college, the workplace, and everyday life. Unfortunately, math has…

Researchers pointed at project-based science education encourages students' dialogic practices such as wondering about the scientific phenomenon and asking questions, which may positively affect positively students' democratic practices in the classroom. It is the goal of the present research to verify this issue. Sixty-six Grade 5 students…

Global climate change is one of the most significant challenges of the twenty first century, requiring its integration into K-12 science education curricula to foster informed and climate-literate citizens. However, challenges remain in effectively teaching climate change, including a lack of instructional materials and a reliance on traditional…

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of "Canva-assisted PjBL-STEAM" learning model to improve students' creative thinking and collaboration skills. This type of research is "quasi-experimental" with "Noneequivalent Control Group Design" with "pretest" and "posttest" forms.…

Scientific modeling is a fundamental tool in STEM education that facilitates the understanding and explanation of complex phenomena. This study examines the effects of the STEM Modelling Design Thinking (STEM MDT) compared to the STEM Project Based Learning (STEM PjBL), particularly in the context of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), in…

Background: Although human-robotic interaction is a rapidly burgeoning area of study within education, and social robots are being widely tested for use in schools, few studies have focused on early adolescent interactions with robots under actual classroom conditions. Objectives: We introduced an autonomous, social robot ('Pepper') into a…

Science literacy abilities and collaborative skills are part of the life skills demands of the 21st century. This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of the PjBL learning model in improving the Science literacy and collaborative skills of students at Muhammadiyah 2 Middle School, Batu City and Muhammadiyah 8 Middle School, Batu City. The…

Project-based learning (PBL) plays a critical role in fostering interdisciplinary integration within science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. However, its complexity often hinders students' ability to apply knowledge and solve problems, particularly in environments that lack psychological and cognitive support. This…

The 21st-century competencies--particularly creative thinking and collaborative skills--among junior high school students in Indonesia was underdevelopment. Science-Biology learning is still dominated by conventional, teacher-centered methods that limit student engagement and higher-order thinking. Although the Kurikulum Merdeka promotes the use…

This study aimed to investigate the relationships between knowledge absorptive capacity, listening, and multiple intelligences. Data were collected and analyzed from 79 students at Tainan First Boys' School and Anping Junior High School. An experimental design was implemented, dividing participants into two groups: a didactic instruction group and…

The research on the ability to think in systems in education is also minimal, which is why the ability to think in systems in Indonesia has not been optimally trained. Dealing with a system's complexity can be challenging at any age, particularly for students who must apply the system's cognitive capabilities during the learning process. Systems…
