This paper investigates undergraduate students' information-seeking behaviour utilising a three-year empirical analysis focusing on students within an Applied Economics module at a UK Higher Education institution. In the first year, students demonstrated proficiency in data identification and analysis. However, they struggled with empirical source…

The adoption of STEM hands-on activities in classrooms should not only focus on artefact building but also aim at helping students construct conceptual knowledge. For achieving such goal through teachers' professional development, this study proposed a practice-based design. The design provided a dual-focused STEM hands-on activity which aimed at…

Online discussion based on the community of inquiry (CoI) framework has received considerable popularity due to its potential benefits for enhancing problem-solving skills and achieving deep understanding in the long term. However, it is challenging to make learners actively conduct a discussion using typical environments (e.g., asynchronous…

Online learning in civic education (OLCE) has been going on since the 2000s. It has become an increasingly interesting topic in light of recent technological advances and emergencies, and it contributes to improving the quality of learning processes and outcomes. This study aimed to track the publication trends of OLCE in the Scopus database…

This action research documents how a teacher education program incorporates game-based learning to engage pre-service teachers (PSTs) in developing their instructional creativity. In this project, game-based learning goes beyond playing games; Instead, it allows PSTs to design their own game-a digital escape room created using a website with…

As the repercussions from post-pandemic normative management continue, digital information and communication technologies have become widely integrated into teaching and learning across ages and environments. Most countries prioritize developing student media literacy to equip them for a digitalized society and diverse educational environments.…

Aim/Purpose: This study aims to design and validate an evaluation instrument for a didactic strategy based on gamification, specifically adapted to e-learning contexts in higher education. It addresses the ongoing challenge of enhancing student motivation, engagement, and retention in virtual learning environments. Background: With the sustained…

The authors developed an email-based faculty development course regarding evaluation and feedback utilizing spaced education to address participation barriers in health professions faculty development. Through a qualitative program evaluation, post-program evaluation narratives were analyzed inductively using conventional content analysis.…

This paper discusses two interventions that explored the use, practice and outcomes of e-portfolios and videos in encouraging reflective practice (RP) in pre-service teacher education programmes in Bangladesh and Malaysia. The first case (Bangladesh) evaluates a tailored intervention facilitating student teachers' online reflections via Google…

Background/purpose: Mobile learning (M-learning) has become a crucial component of higher education due to the increasing demand for flexible and adaptive learning environments. However, ensuring personalized and effective M-learning experiences remains a challenge. This study aims to enhance M-learning effectiveness by introducing an AI-driven…

Environmental change is one of the most pressing issues in the 21st century, requiring students to develop strong critical thinking skills to understand and address its impacts. However, conventional biology learning in schools often remains teacher-centered and less connected to real-life contexts. This study aimed to develop a Science,…

Despite extensive research suggesting the importance of students developing strong foundational math skills during early grades, more than 60% of 4th graders in the United States lack proficiency in mathematics. Such data are influenced by several factors, including summer learning loss in math, negative impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, and a…

Student readiness for university study cannot be assumed; the progression to become a successful student requires support. Highlighting the implementation of purposeful, accessible, and inclusive pedagogical design, this case study explores emergent academic literacies and community building using social annotation in the context of remote…
