In this study, I analyzed and compared definitions of special quadrilaterals presented in the US and Turkish secondary school mathematics textbooks. To this end, seven textbooks from each country were examined based on the following features of mathematical definitions: form of presentation and mathematical correctness, minimality, the nature of…

This study was conducted to explore the experiences of nursing faculty with implementing specific teaching strategies, techniques, and processes that promote engagement among culturally diverse students in online programs. The diversity of the United States population is not reflected in the healthcare workforce, and this has been cited as a…

In this dissertation, the author presents two projects regarding teaching strategies that apply to an intelligent tutoring system (ITS). The author applied multiple-solution teaching methods to the ITSs. The first project is an ITS that aims to help college students learn how to use Computer-Aided-Design (CAD) software, FreeCAD ITS. The second…

This paper examines the learning success of the Virtual Reality course unit "So small! -- So big!" compared to conventional teaching. In the form of a field experiment and three random sample tests, the learning success of 67 subjects was examined. In the analysis of the collected data, the differences between the educational levels and…

Mathematical play has a fairly short history, with strong roots further back in time (e.g., Papert, Montessori), and understanding the role of mathematical play from early childhood to adulthood is, as yet. unmapped. This working group will build on the success of last year's working group and continue to provide a community space to explore and…

The study investigated mathematics teachers' use of ethnomathematics approach to teaching. Descriptive survey research was used with a target population of all mathematics teacher in all public secondary schools in Oredo, Egor and Ikpoba-Okha local government areas of Edo State out of which 121 mathematics teachers in 42 randomly selected public…

The authors, who teach majority White college students preparing to become elementary school teachers, reflect on their pedagogical practice of using children's middle grade novels to accompany Paul Gorski's (2013) "Reaching and Teaching Students in Poverty: Strategies for Erasing the Opportunity Gap." The question they raise is whether…

Building on our 2024 AI Survey, we surveyed 1,041 full-time undergraduate students through Savanta about their use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools. In 2025, we find that the student use of AI has surged in the last year, with almost all students (92%) now using AI in some form, up from 66% in 2024, and some 88% having used…

The present study investigated the feasibility of applying the Silent Way in teaching Japanese to Taiwanese university students. A total of 168 (96 female and 72 male) students in a university in central Taiwan were the subjects of this study. They were studying Japanese as a general course, and were grouped in five classes ranging from freshmen…

Reflexivity refers to the capacity for individuals to understand the cultural system and manage their own position within it.

This paper brings to light the notable contributions of Wikipedian Adrianne Wadewitz (1977-2014) who enlisted her peers and students to help reduce the gender imbalance by participating in mass collaborative initiatives like edit-a-thons to increase the stock of knowledge about and of interest to women. Such projects, and the edit-a-thons that…

The investigation has demonstrated that the science teaching strategy employed moderates the interest of students in learning the subject, along with academic achievement. In this article we used a mixed method design in a sample of secondary education students (n = 57) to examine the effect of the participative teaching approach in attitudes…

The purposes of the current study were to develop students' spatial orientation skills using Virtual Mathematics Kits (VMK) and to evaluate VMK as a form of digital media in terms of spatial orientation. This study involved 42 lower-class and 47 higher-class elementary school students as the intervention group and 36 lower-class and 41…

This paper highlights the importance of conducting studies to ascertain students' perceptions of the teaching-learning process, as this information can provide a valuable guide to course planning and enhance teaching. This study analyses, based on structural equation modelling, the relationship between students' academic performance in an…

This study investigated the levels of social presence, online learning self-efficacy, and student satisfaction among undergraduate students taking online courses from the School of Educational Sciences at the University of Jordan during the COVID-19 pandemic. It was hypothesized that the relationships between these variables and the degrees of…
