Students with mathematics difficulty, especially students with disabilities and emergent bilinguals, require careful consideration during word-problem instruction. Word problems that include relational terms such as more but are not easily solved using the implied operation (i.e., addition) can be particularly challenging. First, we summarize a…

Blended learning strategies that employ online resources and face-to-face classes are widely utilised within higher education. Although research suggests that online learning resources can enhance engagement and improve student outcomes, debate continues regarding how best to design the online component of a blended learning strategy. This study…

This study aims to determine the effect of inquiry-based learning using the 5E instructional model on students' attitudes toward learning history. A quantitative quasi-experimental design was employed, utilizing a pre-post attitude questionnaire. A total of 149 tenth-grade students from two different schools in Bonga town participated in the…

Developing collaboration skills is essential in university engineering classrooms, yet fostering in-depth collaborative discussions remains a challenge. This study introduced individual preparation (IP) as a pedagogical design and examined its role in students' collaborative learning outcomes and processes. Eighty-two engineering students from a…

In Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs), teachers usually organize the sequence of course contents and activities according to their didactic-pedagogical strategies, expecting to guide each student in his learning path. However, usually, each student follows a specific path based on his actions. VLEs typically record student interaction with…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore what agile learning strategies businesses need to develop agile core competencies to respond to the uncertainty of the rapidly changing business environment and sustain their competitive advantage. Technology advances and unexpected crises have created an ever-changing environment in which…

Procedural problem solving is an important skill in most technical domains, like programming, but many students reach problem solving impasses and flounder. In most formal learning environments, instructors help students to overcome problem solving impasses by scaffolding initial problem solving. Relying on this type of personalized interaction,…

Despite its recognized importance for academic success, much of the research investigating time management has proceeded without regard to a comprehensive theoretical model for understanding its connections to students' engagement, learning, or achievement. Our central argument is that self-regulated learning provides the rich conceptual framework…

Socioeconomic status has been a long-time discussed topic due to its impact on children's school paths. However, despite extant research indicating strong relationships between students' socioeconomic status, use of self-regulated learning strategies, and academic achievement, research on interventions addressing these topics is limited. This…

This study aims to test the discovery model integrated with the reading, questioning, and answering (RQA) model. This research is a quasi-study which involves the second semester XI grade students of state senior high school (SMA) Negeri in Situbondo as subjects. The number of students who studied was 160 people from four different classes in the…

Creative thinking is an unorthodox way of thinking to produce fresh and new ideas. Creative thinking can be trained using innovative learning strategies. This study aimed to explore creative thinking aspects in the Digital Mind Maps (DMM) created by Universitas Islam Riau, Indonesia, students who were enrolled in Human Anatomy and Physiology…

Background: Self-management of cognitive load is a recent development in cognitive load theory. Finger pointing has been shown to be a potential self-management strategy to support learning from spatially separated, but mutually referring text and pictures (i.e., split-attention examples). Aims: The present study aimed to extend the prior research…

Background: During self-study, students need to monitor and regulate mental effort to replete working memory resources and optimize learning results. Taking breaks during self-study could be an effective effort regulation strategy. However, little is known about how breaktaking relates to self-regulated learning. Aims: We investigated the effects…

For successful learning, students need to evaluate their learning status relative to their learning goals and regulate their study in response to such monitoring. The present study investigated whether making metacognitive judgments on previously studied text would enhance the learning of that studied (backward effect) and newly studied text…

A cardinal feature of adult cognition is the awareness of our own cognitive struggles and the capacity to draw upon this awareness to offload internal demand into the environment. In this preregistered study conducted in Australia, we investigated whether 3-8-year-olds (N = 72, 36 male, 36 female, mostly White) could self-initiate such an external…
