The production-oriented approach (POA) is a nascent language-teaching approach that considers the aptitudes of Chinese learners. This study compared POA with task-based language teaching (TBLT) and presentation-practice-production (PPP) theoretically and empirically. A four-quadrant model and a theoretical comparison table are proposed to clarify…

Teaching the complex subject matter of "Exploring Space" necessitates concrete and engaging teaching methods, as it requires students to employ abstract thinking and imagination.

This process-oriented approach capitalizes on using problems to stimulate learning through independent and collaborative investigations. This meta-analysis looked at the effectiveness of using PBL to influence mathematical creativity. Fifteen results…

The COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 forced many schools to deliver remote and/or online instruction, at least intermittently, to all students, including those with learning disabilities (LD; Grant, 2020). The move to remote (i.e., education provided not in the physical classroom or school) or virtual (i.e., learning facilitated by digital tools)…

This study aimed to explore the effects of Mastery Learning Strategy (MLS) on senior school students' performance in Mathematics in Osogbo, Nigeria.
