This action research report explores the effect of a "flipped learning" strategy on adult EFL students' speaking skills. Flipped learning, or inverted learning, reverses the traditional educational model where students learn in class and practice out of it; flipped learning promotes the students' learning of concepts and theories out of…

In this paper, we present an activity to introduce the idea of public-key cryptography and to make pre-service STEM teachers explore fundamental informatics and mathematical concepts and methods. We follow the Theory of Didactical Situations within the Didactical Engineering methodology (both widely used in mathematics education research) to…

In "All In: Community Engaged Scholarship for Social Change," authors at various stages of their academic and professional careers, and in very different geographical contexts and community settings, provide unique examples of public scholarship for social justice. Readers will learn about activities promoting equity in a variety of…

The study of complexity is an important part of science education. This paper presents a pedagogical option that includes potentially feasible field solutions for complex science teachers. This work aims to examine how fieldwork has appeared in the international literature over the past five years and to explore the algorithms that can be used to…

This research aimed to (1) study the interaction between groups of people in the community in the collaborative learning of people with different ages, (2) create a model for promoting lifelong learning of people of different ages based on community lifestyle, and (3) experiment the lifelong learning model of people with different ages based on…

The field of autonomous language learning in second language acquisition has experienced significant growth since its introduction by Holec in the 1980s. Several studies have explored how to promote learning autonomy in various spaces, including online learning environments. However, research related to autonomous language learning in online…

Normally, a pre service teacher will get an education in order to prepare themselves in cognitive knowledge, positive attitudes and skills. Moreover, what will be faced by them is educating children who are actually going through the initial stages of learning, namely reading, writing, and counting. Writing, especially cursive handwriting, helps…

The activities of prospective teachers in the learning process are very important to show the quality of the learning process, particulary research activities. This paper is intended to analyse the research activities of pre-service teachers and their responses in the learning process using research-based learning models. Descriptive qualitative…

Future learning spaces (FLSs), such as immersive virtual environments, have expanded the architectural studio beyond traditional spaces, offering new affordances for learning communities (LCs) to enculturate design practices. These developments raise a need to assess how different spaces foster intended learning activities. In response, we…

This article explores the various ways that teachers and learners can navigate different learning worlds with the support of digital tools. Increasingly, teaching and learning takes place in spaces beyond the classroom, whether physical or virtual. Place, navigation and movement have all been recognised as important concepts in approaches to…

Children's conceptions or interpretations of the relationship between play and learning have not been studied much in the early childhood education studies. To better understand play and learning in the Chinese context, this paper will discuss the outcome of a study which sought to investigate children's understanding and interpretation of the…

Algebra, which is one of the learning domains of mathematics, is one of the most difficult ones for students as operative and semantic. For this reason, it is necessary to emphasize required importance on teaching algebra from early periods. Teachers have major roles in this process. The courses, taken by pre-service teachers in undergraduate,…

In current educational research, there is an increasing acceptance among researchers to emphasize that students must be educated on scientific ways of thinking. Simultaneously, science education practice has focused on the development of scientific thinking skills which are associated with scientific inquiry rather than memorization skills. When…

This study intends to investigate the evaluations of prospective teachers on STEM education, based on their experiences with planning and implementing STEM activities. The research's study group, designed qualitatively, is composed of 18 prospective teachers who graduated from the department of mathematics, 16 prospective teachers who graduated…

Training clinical psychologists to be able to work with those who will use their services in ways that are not 'othering' or stigmatising and that facilitate a safe, compassionate and accepting place from where psychological therapy can be undertaken, is an essential task for trainers. Although simulation training is widely used in some healthcare…
