Spreading out study opportunities over time improves the retention of verbal material compared to consecutive study, yet little is known about the influence of temporal spacing on orthographic learning specifically. The current study addressed four questions: (1) do readers' eye movements during orthographic learning differ under spaced and massed…

This research aims to develop an adaptive digital project-based learning model enhanced with artificial intelligence technology to facilitate the creation of digital content. A systematic approach was employed, divided into three phases: 1) study and synthesis of conceptual frameworks to understand the elements and relationships of related…

While templates for academic writing, like those offered in the popular textbook "They Say/I Say," have been embraced by some, others still question the extent to which an emphasis on form comes at the expense of substance. But ancient rhetoricians offer a theory of rhetoric that unites style and substance, and Jeanne Fahnestock's modern…

This study explored a conceptual model of competency tasks using the Competency-Based Education (CBE) Scale, grounded in the OECD's competency framework, which includes knowledge, skills, values and attitudes. The survey incorporates six OECD-defined skill types essential for human learning: cognitive, metacognitive, physical, practical, emotional…

Scientific modeling is a core practice of scientific inquiry. Students' engagement in modeling can be enhanced by attending to epistemic criteria, which in science are standards used to evaluate the validity and accuracy of scientific models. While prior research has focused on students' development and use of epistemic criteria in scientific…

Considering its relationships with real life and mathematics, mathematical modeling is one of the most effective ways of learning and teaching mathematics. In this study, the effect of teaching with mathematical modeling on students' mathematics achievement was examined using the meta-analysis method. An effect size of 51 was achieved with 45…

With the rapid evolution of online learning, driven by technological advancements and the global transition to distance education during the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for effective instructional design models has become increasingly critical. This study conducted a systematic mapping analysis of instructional design models tailored for online…

The increasing use of complex machine learning models in education has led to concerns about their interpretability, which in turn has spurred interest in developing explainability techniques that are both faithful to the model's inner workings and intelligible to human end-users. In this paper, we describe a novel approach to creating a…

In response to Act 54 of the 2010 Regular Session, the Louisiana Department of Education (LDOE) engaged internal and external groups through pilot programs, presentations, workgroups, and focus groups to collectively develop and refine the educator support and evaluation program and the Louisiana value-added model (VAM). This collaborative effort…

Background: The US is facing a youth mental health crisis. The Icelandic prevention model (IPM) may represent one promising way to address it. This paper describes using the IPM to promote youth mental health, with special attention given to the guiding principle of "embracing public schools as the natural hub of community efforts to support…

In education, the concept of 'thinking skills' has long been contentious. This article revisits the 2010 debate between Stephen Johnson and Harvey Siegel on whether thinking can be taught as a general skill. To weigh in on this ongoing dispute, it contributes a novel perspective by augmenting key insights from 4E cognition to avoid treating…

The aim of this study is to investigate the production and dissemination of mathematical modeling-based projects by gifted students, intended to solve real-life problems, over the four-year Project Production and Management Program (PPMP). The longitudinal research methodology was utilized to examine the project production process among…

Decision makers and strategy leaders in states often lack the information they need to make decisions that will support learners' success. Many lack information on what data their states already collect and publicize, and many are unsure of what data might tell a more meaningful story about student success. Responding to this need, researchers and…

MoleculeCrafter is a novel tool that facilitates the custom creation of flexible and modular macromolecular model kits. These models support student chemical education by providing a manipulable and visuospatial tool to facilitate exploration of chemical structures and their interactions. Here, for the first time, we demonstrate using…

This literature review aims to characterise mediation practices in non-formal science education settings (zoos, aquariums, botanical gardens, science centres and museums) based on empirical studies published in the last 15 years and to evaluate their potential in providing visitors with an equitable and inclusive experience, considering their…
