Mathematics plays many roles in physics and physics education. While these roles have previously been extensively discussed in the physics education research community, no systematic picture of the multifaceted considerations has yet been formed. To gain a comprehensive overview of the previous studies on the topic, we conducted a systematic…

The rapid advancement of educational technologies in recent decades has underscored the increasing importance of digital literacy (DL) as a core competency for all students, as recognised in various educational policies and programs. Evaluating students' DL is crucial for providing valuable insights to guide future educational initiatives. This…

Purpose: Problem-based learning (PBL) promotes student-centered, active learning and has been applied in many health disciplines, including speech-language pathology (SLP). There is some SLP literature outlining how PBL has been applied and its components, however, how PBL is applied across SLP programs worldwide is yet to be explored. We…

Aim/Purpose: This study examined the understudied perceptions of higher education instructors on the use of art-based AI generators in digital art, design, and creative-based courses and answered the research questions: (1) how disruptions by generative artificial intelligence (GenAIs) are impacting teaching, and (2) what are the major factors…

The use of technologies in mathematics education at all levels has been discussed extensively for a number of years. It is one of the few themes that was the object of two ICMI studies, the most recent being published in 2010. Two new approaches, emerging lately in the teaching and learning of Mathematics at all levels, will be discussed:…

This article discusses the supervision experiences of two social work academics who placed and supervised students for fieldwork in the same organization during the pandemic. The authors are linked with specific thematic centers within the School of Social Work in a higher educational setting in India. This paper highlights the importance of…

Design-based research (DBR) has proven to be a robust methodology for transforming educational practice through a systematic cycle of analysis, design, development, and real-world implementation. Its distinctive strength lies in fostering close collaboration between researchers and educators within authentic learning contexts, producing design…

TIMSS (Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study) is a long-standing international assessment of mathematics and science at the fourth and eighth grades, collecting trend data every four years since 1995. Over 70 countries rely on TIMSS to monitor their education systems in a global context, benchmarking national curricula and…

This quasi-experimental study investigates the comparative effectiveness of inquiry-based learning, STEAM, and Guided Inquiry-STEAM (GI-STEAM) in fostering elementary students' creative thinking skills and scientific attitudes. A total of 115 students from public elementary schools in Semarang Regency, Central Java, Indonesia, were given a…

While formative assessment is a widely valued instructional approach to support meaningful learning, putting it into classroom practice remains a challenge, also because the time resources required may conflict with other goals. In a cluster-randomized controlled intervention study with 29 teachers and 604 students (mean age 15.6 years) at…

Active citizenship is essential for promoting democratic values and social cohesion in educational settings. The purpose of this research were to investigate and analyze empirical data to propose effective guidelines for cultivating active citizenship among secondary school teachers under Thailand's Office of the Basic Education Commission (OBEC).…

Background: STEM education aims to develop innovation and problem-solving skills through interdisciplinary learning, yet struggles to foster student engagement and interdisciplinary thinking. Whilst alternate reality games (ARGs) can boost motivation via game-based problem-solving, integrating large language models (LLMs) remains underexplored.…

Research internships, designed to enhance students' scientific knowledge, research skills, and confidence, typically focus on a single science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) discipline and miss the opportunity to facilitate the development of interdisciplinary collaboration skills crucial for translational research. As part of…

Background: A single-case design focuses on individual performance and measures the causal relationships between variables (Kazdin, 2019). This experimental design enables researchers to measure the learning behaviors of individual participants over time across phases and assess the effectiveness of an instructional strategy in improving or…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to empirically test whether or not an online business simulation game (OBSG) can enhance key soft skills and self-perceived employability. Design/methodology/approach: This research employed a blended learning approach to syllabus delivery. Five soft skills and self-perceived employability were measured before…
