To improve climate education in an introductory weather and climate course, an active-learning lab was developed around a climate decision support system. The Climate Analysis and Visualization for the Assessment of Species Status (CAnVAS) tool allows individuals to view various climate variables and select a particular location and species to…

High dropout rates and low pass rates are prevalent problems encountered by online learning platforms, which greatly hinder the development of online education. Drawing upon the theory of attention allocation, this study aimed to investigate the factors influencing the effectiveness of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), as well as the potential…

First-year college students experience difficulties in understanding the concepts of derivatives and integrals. At the postsecondary level, the use of static visualization and other traditional instruction delivery methods often are unable to meet students' needs in calculus. This problem is current and essential in the field of education and…

Cutting-edge technology enhances the teaching-learning process, with Multimedia-Based Instruction (MMBI) emerging as a powerful tool to achieve educational goals. MMBI creates visually engaging, resource-rich materials that support students in understanding abstract mathematical concepts, boosting interest and curiosity. According to Mayer (2001),…

This study examines the effectiveness of using multimedia, specifically Remember the Titans, to teach Bruce Tuckman's Group Development stages in undergraduate management education. The research investigates whether integrating film-based pedagogy enhances student comprehension and academic performance compared to traditional lecture methods.…

This study provided an assertiveness skills training program based on the process model of social skills and investigated the effect of assertiveness skills training on students at a women's university in Japan. It was a quasi-experimental study conducted in a pre- and post-survey design with nonequivalent groups. The training program included…

Learners with developmental disabilities often encounter difficulties in performing daily activities that involve digital platforms, operating systems, applications, and other digital tools. Considering the growing importance of digital literacy, we examined the effectiveness of the clustered forward chaining (CFC) procedure in teaching digital…
