Environmental education (EE) seeks to inspire individuals to adopt sustainable practices and foster a deeper awareness of environmental responsibility. Effective EE develops and enhances environmental knowledge, connectedness to nature (CN), and builds socially benefitting attributes that prepare individuals and communities to undertake positive…

This study examines the impact of a professional learning (PL) project on secondary mathematics teachers' professional growth in their knowledge, beliefs, and instructional practices. Initially attributing teaching challenges to external constraints, some teachers gradually recognised the need for pedagogical development through reflection and…

Family-centered services are the recommended early intervention approach to develop and deliver services for children with disabilities and their families. This systematic review aims to identify and highlight what barriers service providers in family-centered early intervention perceive that prevent them from providing high-quality services…

Trigonometric derivatives are fundamental in both mathematics and physics, yet their correct application, particularly the distinction between radians and degrees, remains a significant challenge for college students worldwide. This study identifies a widespread "blind spot" in understanding trigonometric derivatives and their…

The study addressed leadership knowledge sharing among elementary school principals. School principals' comments regarding difficulty sharing what they have learned on the job about leadership gave impetus to investigating components of leadership that are not readily shared. Their comments implied both limited opportunities and limited language…

Objective: This study investigated the impact of an online postural education programme on primary school teachers' knowledge regarding back care and low back pain (LBP) prevention. Design: This investigation was nested within a randomised controlled trial. Setting: A total of 61 teachers participated, divided into an experimental group (n = 32)…

This study explores what motivates elementary school teachers to integrate agriculture into their curriculum and instruction. Additionally, it discusses the barriers teachers face to integration and what agricultural organizations can do to assist teachers. This mixed-methods study began with an online survey of teachers who had previously…

Purpose: This paper aims to introduce a novel AI learning progression for upper-elementary students and aligns assessment items across levels of each construct to gather evidence of understanding. It also validates this quantitative measure by examining these items as two subscales for psychometric properties using the Rasch model.…

Organisational success increasingly depends on data-driven decision-making, which is making data literate talent essential. However, building a data-literate workforce is challenging, as data literacy is complex, context-dependent, and varies across sectors. This study explores the challenges middle managers face in using data for decision-making…

This paper focuses on a professional development program for lower-secondary school mathematics teachers, led by mathematics education researchers, based on historical insights from Fibonacci's Liber Abbaci. The program, involving 25 teachers, emphasized using the history of mathematics to craft meaningful mathematical lessons on the topic of…

This study investigates the comprehension of microbiological concepts among students and identifies areas for improvement in microbiology education. The participants comprised 56 secondyear learners (17 males, 39 females) studying microbiology as part of their BSc Biology program at a university in South Africa's Eastern Cape. A survey was…

This study examined the direct and indirect effects of foundational language (vocabulary and syntactic knowledge) and literacy (orthographic knowledge) skills, transcription (spelling and handwriting fluency), and higher-order cognitive skills (comprehension monitoring and inferencing making) on writing among Chinese children. Participants were…

The prevalence of diseases stemming from poor nutrition emphasizes the importance of educating people about healthy eating habits. One approach to achieving this is through educational escape games, which embody the features of a situated learning environment. Utilized the situated learning theory as a theoretical and methodological framework, the…

With the rise of quantum computing, interest has grown in using two-state quantum systems (qubits) at the secondary level to foster students' conceptual understanding. Quantum measurement, in particular, is central to quantum theory and its accurate conceptualization by students is crucial for grasping fundamental quantum principles. However,…

Educational robotics is known for its effects on learners' engagement and academic achievement. Few studies have examined the teacher's attitude towards the implementation of ER in teaching practice. The main goal of this study is to examine the teachers' attitudes, self-efficacy and openness towards incorporating educational robotics into their…
