Background and Context: Pair programming is an important approach to fostering students' programming and collaborative learning skills. However, the empirical findings on pair programming are mixed, especially concerning effective instructional design. Objective: The objective of this literature review is to provide lecturers with systematic…

Deep learning techniques are being unified for decision support in various applications. However, it remains challenging to train robust deep learning models, due to the inherent insufficient labeled data that is usually time-consuming and labor-intensive. Self-supervised learning is a feature representation learning paradigm to learn robust…

Previous research has shown the importance of regulating learning and collaboration in instructional design. Moreover, learners often struggle to regulate their learning and collaborate effectively, which can hinder knowledge acquisition and academic achievements. To address these challenges, the Understand, Plan, Monitor, and Reflect (UPMR)…

Research into technological problem solving has shown it to exist in a range of forms and draw upon different processes and knowledge types. This paper adds to this understanding by identifying procedural and epistemic differences in relation to task performance for pupils solving a well-defined technological problem. The study is theoretically…

The important role of student agency in collaborative problem-solving has been acknowledged in previous mathematics education research. However, what remains unknown are the processes of agency in open-ended tasks that draw on real-life contexts and demand argumentation beyond "mathematical". In this study, we analyse a video recording…

In this article, we show how students' productive struggle on a mathematical task can lead to collective mathematical creativity. We use observable (co)actions and interactions from a video record that features three Grade 6 students in a problem-solving session to document the emergence of collective creativity leading to a mathematical solution.…

Collaborative argumentation allows groups to express, criticize, and integrate arguments to achieve the co-construction of collective knowledge. However, students often face challenges when proposing diversified arguments, gathering evidence, and rebutting others reasonably. Incorporating generative conversational agents (GCAs) into collaborative…

This research aims to develop an online Project-Based Collaborative Learning (PBL) model design by utilizing an asynchronous Online Discussion Forum (ODF) that can systematically direct teachers or lecturers as facilitators in learning, and how experts think about the design. Using the Research and Development (R&D) method, this design was…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has brought about significant changes in our lives, making AI literacy a crucial endeavor for the future. Despite its growing importance in academia, there is limited empirical research on its impact on college students' higher order thinking skills (HOTS). The present study systematically and comprehensively explores…

Course structure is seen as a critical component of student success and engagement in online courses. On the other hand, the implementation of student collaboration and feedback mechanisms can be more ambiguous and complex to understand than in face-to-face learning environments. This study aims to explore preservice teachers' perceptions and…

The process of knowledge transfer within the cooperative classroom has not been widely studied. Previous studies indicate transfer is a multi-dimensional procedure that can spontaneously occur throughout any stage of learning and can be seen as a dynamic process (Hajian, 2019). This study examined educator-perceived transfer of knowledge and…

Collaborative argumentation is a powerful means to promote conceptual understanding of scientific concepts for which students have robust misconceptions. However, eliciting and maintaining productive collaborative argumentation is known to be difficult. Moreover, it is unclear whether and how the factor of communication media might enable or…

Criticism has been raised about creativity researchers narrowing their focus solely to the cognitive processes within individuals. To address these concerns, this case study seeks to expand the scope of creativity research by delving into metacognitive, motivational, and emotional processes involved in collaborative creative problem-solving. The…

Group awareness tools have garnered significant interest within the realm of computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL), as they foster collaborative learning behaviors. However, in the context of a CSCL environment devoid of rich technologies, supporting group awareness is challenging. Contextualized in a teacher professional development…

This action research aims to develop the ability to solve mathematical problems, particularly in polygons, through open-approach learning management for sixth-grade students, with the goal of achieving an average score exceeding 70% of the total possible score. The target group consisted of eight students in the second semester of the academic…
