Background/purpose: The Automobile Parts Manufacturing Industry (APMI) is currently facing rapid changes due to continuous technological innovations. These shifts are reshaping the skills required for future workforce participation in the sector. Consequently, it is essential to prepare students with future-oriented competencies that align with…

Students often search for answers online, and gravitate to short explanation videos, which are abundant online. While they seem useful and can be quite engaging, it is unclear if these videos benefit classroom learning. We hypothesized that when carefully matched to the class instruction, video can be helpful, but that benefits will depend on the…

We conducted a scoping review on game-based learning (GBL) for mathematics teacher education. In recent decades, GBL has been largely applied to K-12 education contexts. GBL has aimed to promote students' deeper understanding of mathematics knowledge via game-based activities. With the evolving needs of GBL in mathematics education, recent…

Effective feedback plays a critical role in enhancing the writing skills of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. This study examines the comparative effectiveness of three feedback approaches--Teacher e-feedback, AI-based feedback, and a hybrid model--in enhancing the writing performance of Iranian intermediate-level EFL learners. A…

Teaching Computer Science concepts, such as graph theory, is often challenging. This study proposes an approach for teaching graph theory using an unplugged game ("GraphGame") developed through a participatory design process that includes usage observation, clarifying meaning, prototyping, and implementation. This process was carried out…

The Colleague AI platform introduces a groundbreaking Rubric Generation function designed to streamline how educators create and use rubrics for instructional and assessment purposes. This feature uses artificial intelligence (AI) to produce standards-based rubrics tailored to course content for formative and summative evaluations. By automating…

Purpose of this study was to create thematic web connection links for distant education. Aim of the web connection links was to summarize and visualize the relationship of each effective factor with other factors. To create the thematic web connection links, the effective factors on distant education were tried to be determined. Data was collected…

Students with and without disabilities consistently fail to meet established writing benchmarks, highlighting the urgent need for intervention and innovation in this critical area. According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), key criteria for assessing writing include the development of ideas, organization of ideas, and…

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of an eight-module Cybersecurity course at increasing the learning outcomes of middle and high school students with little to no experience in Computer Science and Cybersecurity, including underrepresented minorities (URMs) in Cybersecurity. Twice we administered and evaluated the Cybersecurity…

This study explores the integration of H5P (HTML5), an open-source content creation platform, in a teacher preparation program at a medium-sized public university in the south of the USA. Conducted over five semesters, the research involved 94 undergraduate students (pre-service teachers). The study aimed to evaluate the pedagogical effectiveness…

Despite the recognised importance of communicative competence in language acquisition, many English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners persistently grapple with affective barriers such as speaking anxiety, shyness, and demotivation, alongside underdeveloped social-emotional competence (SEC), challenges that traditional speaking instruction…

The usage of digital media, especially tablet apps, is currently a major concern in educational settings. A controversial discussion is also taking place in relation to mathematics education at primary schools. While on the one hand there are empirical findings on helpful isolated examples and related subject-didactic potentials of digital media,…

This study investigates the presence and distribution of speech acts in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) textbooks used in Thai primary and secondary schools. Additionally, this study explores the perspectives of Thai EFL teachers on the effectiveness of these textbooks in supporting the teaching and learning of speech acts. A mixed methods…

Background/purpose: In modern mathematical education, it is important to develop students' ability to understand the fundamental properties of geometric objects deeply. This makes it relevant to study the additivity of the area of triangles as a property inherent in various kinds of quantities and ways of representing it methodologically in the…

Background/purpose: This study aims to improve students' mathematical critical-numeracy thinking skills by applying the Problem-Based Learning-Autograph model. Materials/methods: This study used a mixed method with a sequential explanatory strategy, and the research design is a one-group pretest-posttest design. The population included students…
