The provision of a profitable education in Mathematics is important at a cross-curricular level, since this subject finds room in a plethora of academic paths, not limited to the most scientific or technological curricula. In particular, this applies to the security and defence area, where several skills related to mathematical reasoning, such as…

Many pre-service teachers prolong studies or fail to complete teaching degrees due to financial hardship. This attrition exacerbates the teacher shortage in Australian schools. Our research uses critical theory to explore the challenges for pre-service teachers as they complete the compulsory professional experience component of initial teacher…

In this article, we examine the challenges and opportunities perceived by university staff when planning and executing interdisciplinary activities for students in the problem-based and project-centred environment at Aalborg University. Using a qualitative approach, we interviewed 15 participants from nine pilot projects organizing…

Problem-based learning (PBL) and early clinical placements (CP) are recognised as complementary strategies for developing clinical reasoning (CR) in medical education. However, how alternating between these formats influences the CR process from students' perspectives remains underexplored. This qualitative-led exploratory mixed-methods study…

This article presents our findings concerning a MOOC named 'Introduction to R programming language', in which we applied design thinking combined with problem-based learning to enhance student engagement and improve the learning experience. The course was delivered to 575 students from Brazil between February 28 and March 18, 2022. Our goal was to…

This research aims to increase our understanding about the effects of active learning, applying problem-based learning (PBL) methodologies to increase student motivation in various graphic engineering classes. The measurement instruments included a cross-sectional survey (n = 269) carried out during the years 2015 to 2019 through triangulation of…

Aim/Purpose: This study examined the understudied perceptions of higher education instructors on the use of art-based AI generators in digital art, design, and creative-based courses and answered the research questions: (1) how disruptions by generative artificial intelligence (GenAIs) are impacting teaching, and (2) what are the major factors…

Active citizenship is essential for promoting democratic values and social cohesion in educational settings. The purpose of this research were to investigate and analyze empirical data to propose effective guidelines for cultivating active citizenship among secondary school teachers under Thailand's Office of the Basic Education Commission (OBEC).…

We aimed to develop a predictive model to identify risk factors associated with problem behaviour groups in 4-year-old South Korean preschoolers. Using data from the 2012 and 2014 waves of the Panel Study on Korean Children (n = 1,416), we examined how maternal parenting stress, depression, parenting behaviours, child temperament, sex, and family…

The moderating role of maternal depressive symptoms in the relationship between language skills and problem behaviours was examined in a sample of 240 preschool children (M age = 43.52 months) enrolled in Head Start programmes. This longitudinal study assessed children's language skills using the Preschool Language Scale-5. Mothers completed the…

Purpose: This paper aims to explore the learning processes among employees on large dairy farms and investigates the potential for learning and employee-driven innovation (EDI) to contribute to sustainable dairy production from the perspectives of animal welfare, social responsibility and economic aspects. Design/methodology/approach: Data were…

Interactive serious games enhance science-based communication and promote deeper learning about sustainable development. It is yet undiscovered that how can AI-augmented interactive experiences enhance the engagement and spread awareness. This study proposes an AI-augmented digital serious game in public installation format. First, the study…

Discovery boxes offer teachers an innovative approach to restoring social studies as a central component of early elementary education. They address the dual needs of developing historical knowledge and fostering the social-emotional learning (SEL) critical for students to thrive in an increasingly diverse and interconnected world. This article…

Interest in computational thinking (CT) in the scientific community has increased significantly in the last 4 years, as evidenced by the numerous systematic reviews carried out. However, there is a lack of reviews that update the emerging conceptualization of CT and which also examine the roles of the school curriculum and teachers in the face of…

Magnetic resonance imaging is widely used for different diagnostic examinations involving autistic patients. The noisy, narrow, isolating magnetic resonance imaging environment and long scan times may not be suitable for autistic individuals, given their communication challenges, sensory sensitivities and often heightened anxiety. This systematic…
