Physical education (PE) programs are uniquely situated to promote the development of fundamental movement skills (FMS). The aim of this systematic review was to examine the elements of PE-based interventions globally for the development of FMS, as assessed through the test of gross motor development (TGMD). A systematic literature search was…

This study explores how working with problem-based cases as a mediating tool may support student teachers in bridging the gap between theory and practice, while also fostering their research literacy. The intervention was carried out over two years in a compulsory 15 ECTS pedagogy course within a Norwegian integrated master's program in teacher…

Educational applications of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) for English language learning have become increasingly prevalent in K-12 classroom contexts. These tools have enormous potential to provide unique learning experiences and increase students' engagement; however, the benefits depend on appropriate implementation and use.…

AR-supported instruction has been verified to improve students' problem-solving skills. This study investigated 1041 university students and developed an empirical research model that combined technology acceptance, self-regulation, and AR-supported learning effectiveness with the structural equation model (SEM). At the same time, content analysis…

Background: As researchers rush to investigate the potential of AI tools like ChatGPT to enhance learning, well-documented pitfalls threaten the validity of this emerging research. Issues of media comparison research, where the confounding of instructional methods and technological affordances is unrecognised, may render effects uninterpretable.…

Subject (e.g., math) problems often have deep rationales and concepts underlying them. Accordingly, when students solve these problems, they are prone to making errors that expose their misunderstandings and are difficult to correct. Previous research has shown the benefits of teacher feedback in learning from errors, but the effectiveness of…

This study investigated the effectiveness of a music and dance program in relation to the inclusion of young autistic pupils in mainstream schools. Then, the study explored, through a qualitative methodology, pupils' perspectives toward their autistic peers. A story was used to support peer collaboration and inclusion in the group, music was used…

This study aimed to contribute to the substantial body of research on critical thinking (CT) interventions by determining whether the effectiveness of two CT interventions (generic and infusion) varied according to students' baseline CT levels. Using a quasi-experimental design, we collected data from two universities, with 167 participants from…

Virtual Labs (vLabs) have been gaining popularity in high school and undergraduate education, but there are few studies looking at their use in graduate-level courses. In this study, we investigated the use of six Labster vLabs assigned as homework in a graduate-level in-person Genomic Methodologies course at the University of Toronto. This course…

This investigation was performed to determine the impacts of the STEM approach in environmental education (EE) on environmental attitudes and knowledge levels and to examine student opinions on the STEM approach in EE. The investigation was implemented in a government school in Turkey in 12 weeks using a mixed method. A Quasi-experimental design…

In the evolving landscape of vocal pedagogy, ttehe integration of computer-assisted technologies represents a transformative shift from traditional master-apprentice models. This study investigates the efficacy of computer-assisted vocal training methods compared to conventional approaches, focusing on improvements in pitch accuracy, vocal range…

Disparities in school discipline based on student race and disability status remain a major barrier to achieving educational equity. In addition to systemic factors, research suggests that educators' racial and labeling biases may also be partially responsible for exacerbating these inequities. This article presents a novel mindfulness-based…

Academic institutions are increasingly adopting active learning methods to enhance educational outcomes. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we investigated neurobiological differences between active learning and traditional lecture-based approaches in university physics education. Undergraduate students enrolled in an introductory…

Integrating information literacy teaching methods with subject-content curricula to develop prospective biology teacher students' abilities is still problematic. This quasi-experimental research, with a nonrandomized pretest-posttest control group design, intends to compare the influences of challenge-based learning (CBL), problem-based learning…

The present study investigates the impact of STEM-based activities on the systems thinking skills of fourth-grade students. The research aims to determine whether STEMintegrated learning enhances students' ability to analyze, synthesize, recognize relationships, and develop a holistic understanding of scientific concepts. The study employed a…
