Education on computational thinking skills has been a focus in many countries. Previous studies have investigated educational board games based on computational thinking skills. However, there is a lack of research on the cognitive behaviors and cognitive styles promoted by these educational board games. Therefore, in this study, educational board…

Given the impact of engineering on society, it is crucial that engineering graduates have an appreciation of the social aspects of the profession and an understanding of the social implications of engineering practice. However, the socio-technical integration in engineering education has proven challenging and it is still a matter of concern. The…

Interdisciplinary engineering education (IEE) is gaining traction as engineering practices increasingly acknowledge the need to transcend traditional boundaries given the complexities of globalised systems. IEE, however, faces challenges that underscore uncertainties and different perceptions about what interdisciplinarity means for engineering…

Fragmenting plays a pivotal role in facilitating the transition to learn different topics of fractions such as unit fractions. This paper contributes to the body of knowledge by presenting an updated fragmenting framework, informed by empirical findings derived from an investigation into the fragmenting schemes exhibited by first and second grade…

The complexity of mathematics teaching is especially evident in lessons where teachers build on students' genuine ideas, such as problem-based lessons. To enhance teachers' capacity for rich discussions in problem-based instruction, we have developed a unique approximation of practice: digital asynchronous simulations where teachers make…

The overall aim of this paper is to provide a holistic orientation to the practice of person-centered coaching while providing tangible methods that faculty and advisors in higher education may be able to integrate into their professional practices. This conceptual paper explores the theoretical and practical intersections of coaching and…

How do undergraduates use biological principles to guide their reasoning when solving novel problems? Is it an effective strategy? To address these questions, we analyzed real-time discussions from small groups of students in an Introductory Organismal Biology course. We created a reasoning framework to characterize how students activated and…

The goal of this study is to show a novel way of using large-scale data (N = 6203) to identify pupils' strategies when solving missing value number equations. It is based on the assumption that wrong numerical results appearing more frequently than would be the case if they were consequences of random guessing can be expected to be underlain by a…

Agricultural life science topics include but are not limited to (1) agriculture and the environment, (2) culture, society, and economy, and (3) energy. These topics have potential to come up during mathematics and science instruction and offer learning opportunities. One way for agricultural life science topics to be part of such instruction is…

This study examined Kwara central undergraduates' perceived peer pressure on youths' involvement in kidnapping. This study was a descriptive survey. The population comprised of all undergraduates in Kwara Central Senatorial District. The target population was undergraduates from University of Ilorin and Alhikmah University, 500 students were…

The current COVID-19 pandemic raises reflection on the new roles of science education in citizen education in a world characterized by civilization risks, derived from the current socioeconomic development. This specific type of risk is treated as a manufactured risk as proposed by the sociologist Ulrich Beck. In this paper, we report a document…

The problem-solving ability is still a big problem for students. Many studies show that Indonesian students are still low in solving math problems. One thing that is needed in solving problems is self-resilience, so that students have resilience in facing problems. This study aims to analyze the differences in problem-solving abilities of…

Any academic from an overrepresented group who advocates more "diversity" is directly contributing to the lack of "diversity" by remaining in his position. Assuming the number of jobs is relatively fixed, such an individual is effectively saying, "I want the percentage of academics who have the same demographic…

Architecture education may be able teach students more about real-life problem-solving than traditional subjects.

Background: Based on self-reported social capital, different typologies of family networks of people with intellectual disabilities were examined. Associations between behavioural and emotional problems or well-being and typologies were investigated. Method: 137 participants with mild intellectual disability were interviewed using the Family…
