The primary objective of science postgraduate education is to foster students' capacity for creative thinking and problem-solving, particularly in the context of scientific research quality. In order to achieve this goal, the "7E" teaching mood has been implemented in the cell biology course for postgraduate students to promote…

This opinion piece argues that Design Thinking (DT) can facilitate a more empathetic and student-centred approach to service development and problem-solving in Learning Development (LD). While DT is already established within higher education, we argue it is still underutilised, especially in the context of LD. We start by unpacking the…

Even though there is a great temptation as teachers to share what is known, many are aware of an idea called "rules that expire" (RTE) and have realized the importance of avoiding them. There is evidence that students need to understand mathematical concepts and that merely presenting rules to carry out in a procedural and disconnected…

This study systematically explores instructional strategies that enhance students' problem-solving skills in physics through a systematic literature review. A systematic search and screening process was followed, and findings were synthesized using a weighted narrative approach due to methodological heterogeneity. A total of 118 articles were…

The need for problem-solving and creative thinking skills to be taught well in business studies classrooms can never be overemphasised due to the complexity of the problems and challenges faced by businesses in the 21st-century business environment. Teachers are, therefore, required to adopt pedagogies that would enable learners to acquire…

The author presents a child-centered approach to teaching, developed through longtime connections with colleagues, which concentrates on the children and provides them time to make their own connections, to learn, to think, and to develop at their own pace with the support of their classmates. Two examples of how mathematics interlaced into…

Many music theory courses make use of a textbook with an accompanying anthology of musical examples. Some anthologies include recorded examples, and some do not. Many books address the topics of eighteenth-century theory with exercises for the student to complete at the end of each chapter. This article proposes a music theory pedagogy that honors…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to present the 2030 SDGs Game as a pedagogical tool for the promotion of interdisciplinary education. Based on the simulation of possible world outcomes for the year 2030, the game induces participants to reflect on the socioeconomic and environmental consequences of actions and facilitate the exploration of…

"Comprehensive Classroom Management" helps K to 12 teachers understand and apply the principles of effective classroom management in their own classrooms. It offers the background, practical advice and real-life examples you need to understand how to apply the principles of classroom management in your own classroom situation. The…

This article aims to analyze the process of the progressive mathematization of the concept of the function by secondary school students through the resolution of a free fall situation. A free-fall mathematical situation was designed and experimented using the Tracker software to obtain movement data. Worksheets and conversations were collected…

This convergent mixed methods study investigated the relationship between the assessment-capable learning (ACL) instructional model, John Hattie's influence referred to as "students driving their own learning," and math achievement in kindergarten. While Visible Learning literature has focused on secondary and higher education, this…

The teaching and learning of mathematics in sub-Saharan African countries is dominated by teacher-centred pedagogies rather than student-centred ones. Observations of mathematics teachers at two private schools in South Sudan confirmed such practices. This inspired the researchers to design an intervention to help six primary mathematics teachers…

Developing Critical Thinking Skills (CTS) has been a primary educational goal in developed countries for several decades. However, even though Mexico recently embraced this educational trend in higher education, there is uncertainty about CTS development occurring under current conditions. Despite the abundance of quantitative studies examining…

In this study, researchers investigated the impact of transdisciplinary learning on minority students as they were asked to apply higher-order thinking to solve realworld problems. Minority students, aged 10 to 11, who attended the researcher's elective classes participated. To see the potential in Transdisciplinary Learning, researchers looked at…

If student-centered practices in reading and writing workshops work for students, why aren't these same practices used during mathematical instruction? Workshop models center the instruction on students and offer them the time and freedom to be independent in their work, moving toward high-level, inquiry-based learning. The authors experienced a…
