Teachers and teacher educators have been sharing strategies and resources for implementing mathematics routines in National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) journals for years. A less commonly shared mathematics routine, especially with young learners, is "Clothesline Math" (Shore, 2017, 2018). In this routine, teachers create…

In today's dynamic and high-tech learning environment, offering flexible and innovative assignment options is crucial for engaging students across varied learning preferences and backgrounds. Alternative formats, such as gamification and storyboards, can boost engagement, spark creativity, and enhance learning outcomes in college classrooms. By…

The objective of the study is to assess the effectiveness of laboratory activities employing the Predict-Explain-Observe-Discuss-Explain (PEODE) approach in promoting gifted students' interpretation of everyday problems related to fundamental science concepts. This quasi-experimental study involved 54 gifted students enrolled in the Science and…

Uncertainty tolerance (UT) describes how individuals perceive and respond to uncertainty. Quantitative UT scales developed with physicians have been widely used in the health professions literature; however, recent studies have raised questions about their validity when implemented among students. This study explored response process validity of…

This study investigates the relationship between mathematical literacy and cognitive flexibility in solving complex problems among Indonesian elementary school students aged 9-10 n = 78. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the research combined quantitative testing and qualitative interviews to provide a comprehensive understanding of this…

The 21st-century skills seek to develop learners who will be problem solvers in society. This paradigm shift requires the use of learner-centered strategies that emphasize collaborative problem-solving. To explore the effectiveness of such approaches, this study sought to determine how effective Wheatley's problem-centered approach would be in the…

Augmented Reality (AR) enhances education by providing immersive and interactive learning experiences, particularly for students with low spatial skills, as well as in conceptual and procedural knowledge. In the Malaysian Form 2 mathematics curriculum, Isometric Transformation presents significant challenges. Traditional teaching methods often…

Challenge: In engineering classrooms, generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools, such as ChatGPT, can supplement traditional teaching methods and have the potential to improve learning outcomes. However, there are also significant drawbacks, including the possibility of over-reliance on the tools and the hindrance of critical thinking, which…

The study investigated the impact of guided inquiry-based laboratory experiments enriched instructional (GIBLEI) approach on conceptual understanding of tenth grade students in biology. The study included two purposively chosen schools and used a quasi-experimental design with non-equivalent groups. A class was randomly assigned as the…

Epistemic activities and emotions play an important role when generating, evaluating, and selecting creative ideas. This is especially so when examining creative actions developmentally. A total of 134 business students participated in an innovation tournament in which they were asked to explore product or service categories, generate, evaluate,…

Mathematical proficiency, particularly in Numbers and Algebra outcomes, is critical for academic achievement and real-world problem-solving. This study examines the impact of an intelligent tutoring system on seventh-grade students' mathematical development. The research had two goals: (1) to compare the conceptual understanding between…

This mixed methods study explored how the making of animated models affected year 11 students' understanding of the effect of temperature on the equilibrium of an exothermic or endothermic reaction. The students' perspectives and the role of the activity in facilitating a metacognitive process were also examined. Teacher perspectives were also…

The toppling motion of falling chimney stacks has been the subject of a number of studies which address the interesting phenomenon that brick chimneys usually break well before they hit the ground. Modern concrete chimneys, and wind generator towers, however, are strong enough to topple without breaking and many videos of their destruction are…

Basis vectors e[subscript alpha] play a useful role in special and general relativity. In particular they allow an expansion of the vectorial spacetime interval dl along infinitesimal curvilinear coordinate differences dl = e[subscript alpha]d[Xi][superscript alpha]: (thus the definition e[subscript alpha] = dl/d[Xi][superscript alpha]). In this…

This study focuses on the concept of pairability as a fundamental metaphorical concept in the Cantorian set theory regarding comparison of infinite sets. In this theory, pairability appears in a hierarchical manner of generating and developing as a one-to-one correspondence by arrows in finite, and then in infinite states, a bijection map through…
