Problem-solving is a key aspect of mathematics instruction. Although it is part of several national curricula, its implementation is still being vastly explored. The present research, which is part of a larger project, aimed to investigate the effect of using problem-oriented instruction in grade 3 of primary school on students' mathematical…

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to determine when students deepen their conceptual understanding of mathematical modeling during a one-semester course in biomedical engineering that uses the constructivist problem-based learning (PBL) framework. The study hypothesizes that concept maps, as a form of assessment, would show increased complexity…

The purpose of this research was to compare the academic achievement of Sichuan University of Science and Engineering students in China before and after receiving learning activities using safety case studies. A pre-experimental research methodology was employed. The sample for this research consisted of one class of 30 first-year students from…

The article explores the application of Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences to homework and the potential of this approach to enhance the educational experience. Through a pilot application in philological subjects in Greek secondary education, the article presents the Homework Toolkit for Cultivating Multiple Intelligences, which…

This paper is based on a study that explored a pedagogical approach consisting of interactive story-based tasks used in a first-year undergraduate business statistics course. It addresses the types of understanding students developed for selected statistics topics. Participants were undergraduate business majors required to take the course. Data…

Following the COVID-19 pandemic, research on Virtual Design Studios (VDS) increased significantly, revealing mixed opinions about their limitations. This paper aims to present these contrasting views on VDS education, with a particular focus on peer-learning. While many studies argue that peer-learning diminishes significantly, or even disappears…

Achieving proficiency in fundamental differential calculus concepts remains a persistent challenge for grade 12 students, raising concerns among mathematics teachers and policymakers. Despite the widely acknowledged applications of differential calculus across diverse disciplines, global examination diagnostic reports consistently highlight…

In the context of globalization and rapid advancement in information and communication technologies (ICT), ICT competence is crucial in professional training, including education. This study focuses on integrating ICT into the educational processes of future science teachers to enhance their ICT competence. The objective is to evaluate ICT's…

The current research implemented the Predict Observe and Explain (POE) instructional approach in mathematics and examined its efficacy in enhancing students' understanding of functions in terms of their ability to connect algebraic and graphical representations in optimization problems. Two grade 11 classes (40 students in total) and two grade 10…

One discussion in the context of education for sustainable development centers around the importance of suitable teaching materials for promoting pro-environmental attitudes. Especially applications that let learners travel to otherwise difficult to reach places seem promising for digital sustainability education that is both accessible and…

An environmental scan conducted in 2022 highlighted a need for enhanced preparation for collaboration between occupational therapists (OTs) and occupational therapist assistants (OTAs) in Ontario, Canada. In response, an online course was developed to disseminate knowledge needed for effective OT-OTA intraprofessional collaboration (IntraPC) in…

The purpose of this report was to investigate how early childhood educators, specifically in preschool and kindergarten classrooms, can shift the curriculum from a traditional teaching approach to a project-based approach due to the significant changes in the educational curriculum. By exploring various research articles from around the world on…

This article examines the application of Quality management principles to learning in the age of AI and digital transformation. The traditional model is considered to be inadequate in coping with modern challenges associated with AI deployment due to concerns of privacy, transparency, and measurement of outcomes. A conceptual model that is…

With three groups of first-grade French children, we tested different spelling teaching strategies, and notably the effectiveness of individualized teaching approach adapted to each child's pace of learning and words already known, compared with traditional strategies identical for all children. An experimental group was offered individualized…

This study investigated the effects of blended learning approaches on technical education students' achievement in electronic laboratory workshop technology at Rivers State University, Nigeria. A quasi-experimental research design was employed with a sample of 68 undergraduate students enrolled in a technology education course. The experimental…
