Many recently added studies concerning reforms on teaching Early Mathematics were taken into consideration by different countries all over the world. The rhetoric that has accompanied such reforms has often justified them in terms of the need to produce citizens who are better able to cope with the demands of the twenty-first century. As an area…

Introduction: The research determined the effectiveness of Peer-tutoring Instructional Strategy (PTIS) and Experiential Instructional Strategy (EIS) on Biology students' academic performance and self-efficacy in schools. Methods: The research adopted a pre-test, post-test, control group quasi-experimental research design. The data collected were…

Purpose: This study aims to examine the effectiveness of Web-based interactive (WBI) presentations in reducing students' cognitive load and increasing their situational interest in learning. Traditionally, many learning practices fail to optimize students' cognitive resources by presenting irrelevant content and activities. However, practical…

Background: Engineering problems are open-ended and complex, involving technical and social aspects, yet engineering education focuses on technical training and closed-ended problems. To prepare engineering students, curricula should foster sociotechnical thinking--the ability to consider the interplay of technical and social factors during…

The use of technology and tools that enable the automation of personalized learning systems has become increasingly relevant and has attracted substantial attention in the field of research. Under this premise, the present study examines the potential of using personalized instructional sequences with activities in the Moodle learning management…

The relative effectiveness of Google Classroom (GC) and WhatsApp (WSP) instructions on students' engagement in basic Biology in universities in SouthEast, Nigeria was examined. Two research questions and three null hypotheses were posed. A quasi-experimental, specifically nonrandomized, pretest-posttest comparison design was employed. The…

This study evaluates the effectiveness of an asynchronous e-text, "Library 101," in teaching students about library resources and services. Developed in a collaboration between the eLearning librarian and Center for Innovation in Teaching and Learning (CITL) at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign, the "Library 101"…

Technological advancements and market pressures are driving the development of pedagogical course design approaches. By using organizational design research into structuring organizations and work processes to improve effectiveness and efficiency, we focus on two structural constructs from organizational design research: standardization (of…

Given the many opportunities for technology use in education nowadays (e.g., Large language models, explainer videos, digital quizzing), teachers should know and rely on evidence-based answers to questions about when, how, and why technology-augmented instruction helps or hinders learning. To date, finding these answers requires integrating…

Background/purpose: Study addresses the problem of low scientific and digital literacy among Grade 6 students (Phase C) in the IPAS (Science and Social Studies) subject under the Merdeka Curriculum, particularly in the theme "Our Endangered Earth." The main purpose of the study is to develop and evaluate the EXARIS learning model…

Background/purpose: This study examines whether Universal Design for Learning (UDL), based on the VARK model, can aid struggling students in mathematics in developing their statistical thinking skills. Additionally, the proposed study examines the relationship between learning preferences and the effect of these preferences on performance.…

This study explores the effectiveness of the Small Private Online Course (SPOC) model in enhancing self-directed learning (SDL) in political courses at Fuzhou Software Vocational and Technical College. The research objectives were 1) to investigate the effect of the SPOC teaching model in enhancing students' selfdirected learning abilities in…

The scientific community has tried to implement the FAIR guiding principles to foster open science actions in data-driven research in higher education since 2016. However, what strategies work and do not in fostering open science actions still need to be determined. This article is the first step to closing this research gap by examining one…

Achieving knowledge integration for deep learning requires students to construct well-connected knowledge structures by understanding and applying the central ideas of a concept. However, research on student learning in work and mechanical energy reveals persistent challenges in grasping fundamental concepts, particularly in connecting the…

Supporting parents in foundational positive behavior support strategies for use with their child is a commonly employed method to improve child behavior in natural contexts, including the home. Parents have learned and implemented a variety of strategies with integrity; however, there is limited research regarding the maintenance of skills.…
