This study aims to test the effectiveness of GeoGebra Augmented Reality in improving students' mathematical problem-solving skills. The method used is a quasi-experiment with a posttest-only control group design. The research population is students of the Mathematics Education Study Program at a private university in Indonesia, with a sample of 32…

The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the significance of early childhood education and care (ECEC) for children's development. We investigated the impact of attendance at ECEC programs following a closure period due to the pandemic. We used linear regression with a lagged dependent variable to examine assessments of children's cognitive and receptive…

Background/purpose: The current study examined the possibility of utilising a practice-based learning strategy to enhance the motivation for job retention among student teachers. Materials/methods: These participants were randomly assigned to either the practice-based learning strategy (PBLS) group (44) or to the control group (45). The teachers'…

Integrating artificial intelligence, particularly large language models (LLMs), into medical education represents a significant new step in how medical knowledge is accessed, processed, and evaluated. The objective of this study was to conduct a comprehensive analysis comparing the performance of advanced LLM chatbots in different topics of…

In this study, the 8th grade secondary school mathematics textbook approved by the ministry in Turkey was compared with the mathematics textbooks in France and the USA in terms of the use of the multiple representation method in the probability learning domain. Document analysis, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the study, and…

Flipped learning has been recognized as a promising pedagogical model for methodological progress in educational environments. Studies have shown the effectiveness of flipped learning when used with appropriate educational technologies and learning strategies. On the other hand, comprehensive guidance is required to combine this pedagogical model…

Significant shifts in the higher education sector during 2020 required the adoption of flexible learning modalities. In response, the University of Suffolk implemented a blended learning approach, incorporating both online and face-to-face delivery. Notably, the university became the first UK higher education institution to implement an intensive…

In the literature of modern psychometric modeling, mostly related to item response theory (IRT), the fit of model is evaluated through known indices, such as X[superscript 2], M2, and root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) for absolute assessments as well as Akaike information criterion (AIC), consistent AIC (CAIC), and Bayesian…

This study aims to introduce network meta-analysis (NMA) to provide educational researchers with an extended view of the reviewing educational research. Meta-analytic methods have been widely used in educational research reviews. However, weaknesses have emerged in the multi-group comparison analysis of educational studies where different…

In online courses, discussion forums play a key role in enhancing student interaction with peers and instructors. Due to large enrolment sizes, instructors often struggle to respond to students in a timely manner. To address this problem, both traditional machine learning (ML) (e.g., Random Forest) and deep learning (DL) approaches have been…

The abundance of library associations provides many choices to academic librarians about where and how to belong. This exploratory article identifies and compares benefits of library professional organizations through content analysis of the groups' websites. Examination of the benefits described on the websites of 76 organizations indicates that…

Source code plagiarism is a common occurrence in undergraduate computer science education. Many source code plagiarism detection tools have been proposed to address this problem. However, most of these tools only measure the similarity between assignment submissions, and do not actually identify which are suspicious of plagiarism. This work…

Work-based learning (WBL) is used interchangeably with other concepts such as work-related learning (WRL) and workplace learning (WPL). Work-integrated learning (WIL) considers WBL a subset within WIL. Some scholars and practitioners argue that WBL as a mode of learning is pedagogically incompatible with WRL, WPL, and WIL. WBL and WIL…

Purpose: Muscle groups within the tongue in healthy and diseased populations show different behaviors during speech. Visualizing and quantifying strain patterns of these muscle groups during tongue motion can provide insights into tongue motor control and adaptive behaviors of a patient. Method: We present a pipeline to estimate the strain along…

This study aims to investigate the distribution across genres and the collocation of three synonymous verbs "cease," "halt," and "stop." Data were drawn from the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA). The results from the distribution across genres shed light on the degree of formality of each verb. The verb…
