Jamie Costley; Anna Gorbunova; Alexander Savelyev; Irina Shcheglova; Christopher Lange – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2025
One way to reduce the cognitive load students feel during instruction is to change the way content is delivered. This can be achieved by optimising the instructional sequence and providing sufficient instructional support during problem-solving. However, the literature is unclear regarding whether an inductive or a deductive instructional sequence…

Angie Hodge-Zickerman; Cindy S. York; Max C. Anderson – Journal on Excellence in College Teaching, 2025
This article explores inquiry-based learning (IBL) pedagogy, particularly in mathematics education, examining how it differs from problem-based learning (PBL) and case-based learning (CBL). IBL is defined as a student-centered approach involving sequenced problems or tasks that build engagement and understanding through group work. While IBL, PBL,…

Paul Tschisgale; Marcus Kubsch; Peter Wulff; Stefan Petersen; Knut Neumann – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2025
Problem solving is considered an essential ability for becoming an expert in physics, and individualized feedback on the structure of problem-solving processes is a key component to support students in developing this ability. Problem-solving processes consist of multiple elements whose order forms the sequential structure of these processes.…

Elif Atabek-Yigit – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
A new perspective on chemistry learning could be the optimal learning moment of view based on flow theory. Optimal learning moments (OLMs) that occur when students experience high levels of interest, challenge, and skill at the same time were investigated in this study. Participants of the study were 47 pre-service science teachers. Data were…
