Iqbal Ainur Rizki; Nadi Suprapto – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
Fostering students' critical thinking skills is an urgent issue that requires immediate attention. One viable solution to address this is the implementation of project-oriented problem-based learning (POPBL) through the SR-STEM project. This research aims to describe the implementation, effectiveness, and student perception of the POPBL model…

Megan Goeke; David DeLiema – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2024
Agency is a core pedagogical goal of the maker education movement. However, there are still many unknowns about how agency is identified in maker settings. To document maker educator professional visions of agency, we conducted video-cued interviews with eleven U.S-based maker educators using video clips of families making in a drop-in…

Jeanette A. Wertz; Candace A. Mulcahy – Preventing School Failure, 2025
Project-based learning is popular among educators and has been touted as an educationally viable option for all learners, yet limited empirical research exists to demonstrate its effectiveness with students with disabilities. In this paper, the authors investigate the alignment of project-based learning elements with high leverage practices in…

Komang Setemen; I. Gede Sudirtha; I. Wayan Widiana – Journal of Technology and Science Education, 2023
The results of online learning were not optimal, as evidenced by the unsatisfactory learning outcomes. These issues influenced students who had a poor understanding of concepts and those who were quick to learn. It was the reason for the study that aims to analyze the effectiveness of study, explore, implement, evaluate (SEIE) model e-learning…

Pepin, Birgit; Kock, Zeger-jan – International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, 2021
In this study we use a case study approach to investigate what kinds of resources were self-reported to have been selected by students working on their Challenge-Based bachelor end projects, and how they used and orchestrated these resources. In a previous study, we had explored students' use of resources and their Actual Student Study Paths in…

Du, Xiangyun; Lundberg, Adrian; Ayari, Mohamed A.; Naji, Khalid K.; Hawari, Alaa – Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
Background: Few studies have reported how students enact learner agency in a team setting or examined what elements of team settings students perceive as more supportive of their learning in problem- and project-based learning (PBL) processes. Purpose: This study explores how engineering students perceive their enactment of learner agency,…

Jiang, Dan; Dahl, Bettina; Du, Xiangyun – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
This study explores how engineering students develop learner agency in an intercultural PBL (problem- and project-based learning) environment, along with the factors that affect their development. Theoretically, learner agency is framed within three interrelated dimensions: intrapersonal, behavioural, and environmental. A narrative inquiry…

Franci Cronje; Carla Enslin – Discover Education, 2024
The primary role and value of a transdisciplinary online collaborative problem-based learning (OCPBL) project is that all disciplines fully participate in producing solutions to challenges. Acquiring the confidence to do so transcends all disciplines. The central role of educators then emerges in facilitating students' confidence in their ability…

Ria Novita Ayu Komalasari; I. Ibrohim; Dwi Listyorini – Journal of Biological Education Indonesia (Jurnal Pendidikan Biologi Indonesia), 2024
Creativity in biology education is a crucial aspect that enhances students' understanding of the subject. It consists of several indicators (fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration), which can also be used as measuring tools for creativity. This study aimed to determine the influence of the Problem-Oriented Project-Based Learning…

Cummings, Cristina M.; Cummings, Timothy M. – College Teaching, 2021
We designed an interdisciplinary project-based learning course in hydroponics for undergraduate non-science major students. Students worked in teams to design, build, and maintain plants in various types of hydroponic systems over the semester. In three semesters of teaching the course, students consistently demonstrated knowledge of course…
