The research examined the effects of Problem Based Learning (PBL) and Lecture teaching method (LTM) on students' achievement in agriculture subject. This research was necessitated by consistent poor performance of students in agriculture subject in the national examination, Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE). The aim was to determine…

The article presents one of the possible ways of overcoming the misconception that is one of the myths about mathematics, which says that teaching mathematics is based only on the transfer of mathematical knowledge in the finished form -- often in the form of certain algorithms. The newly proposed method of access to mathematics teaching is…

Learning how to become a self-regulated learner could benefit students in introductory undergraduate courses, such as computer programming. This study explores the perceived value of instructional and skill-building activities and students' self-efficacy to learn and apply programming skills in an introductory computer programming course. The…

This paper examines the formation of citizens and their differences in and through the contemporary mathematics education reforms in Turkey. The analysis focuses on how internationally designated mathematical competencies assemble with the nation-specific trajectories and revitalise cultural priorities. Curricular techniques, which aim at…

This article presents the results of a study aimed at examining how primary school teachers' attitudes towards probability and its teaching are influenced by their use of an interactive story focused on sparking interest in probability and providing opportunities for learning this mathematical topic. A scale of attitudes towards probability and…

An important part of the mathematics syllabuses at the secondary school level in most countries is the concept of function. However, secondary school students often experience difficulties with this concept. These difficulties are well-known in the research literature. The study applies the mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT) framework,…

In statistical inference, importance of sampling is recognized as one of its key concepts, which has allowed its incorporation internationally in different curricular guidelines and specifically in the Chilean curriculum, since the first notions of sampling are introduced in 7th Grade. This paper presents an analysis of the responses to an…

Problem-based learning (PBL) is a student-centred instructional approach in which complex real-world problems are used as the vehicle to promote students' learning of concepts and principles. This paper presents a case study that explored the learning experiences of 18 pre-service teachers and how the instructor was affected when implementing PBL…

Examining the effect primary school teachers' preferred teaching method has on primary school students' mathematics achievement is important. In this context, the purpose of the research is to determine whether the worked example method is effective on students' ability to learn fundamental knowledge about fractions and their success in solving…

Education currently only prioritizes mastery of scientific aspects and students' intelligence. Math problems are still related to fictitious general knowledge. For this reason, local wisdom-based learning is needed whose learning is packaged using objects, events, and various things that are close to students' lives to raise the local potential of…

Difficulties in mathematics are argued to stem from impairments of a specialized system of numerical magnitude representation. This study investigates whether different measures of numerical magnitude understanding in kindergarten uniquely predict mathematical achievement concurrently and 6 months later, and also examines the relative explanatory…

As Action Learning has evolved, it has been adapted to promote learning in various contexts. In this account of practice, we share our perspectives as facilitators of the application of action learning principles within Reflective Practice Forums for Mentoring and Coaching Programme Managers. The ethos of action learning was adopted with the…

Games have been regarded as a potential vehicle for enhancing student learning. Previous studies mainly focused on learning outcomes; however, the learning processes and dynamic in-game behaviours of students who are immersed in a game context are relatively undiscovered. The purposes of this study were to develop an educational game, "Bio…

Objective: Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) is at the heart of preschool education. Although there are many SEL programmes to guide early childhood teachers' practice, seldom has empathy been a focus for teaching or assessment. Method: This study examined methods to teach empathy in the early years and investigated skills that promote its…

Objective: Social ostracism is a serious psychosocial pattern because of its detrimental impact on adolescents' adjustment and school functioning. The objective of present study was to examine whether academic self-concept and prosocial behaviour mediated the association of social ostracism with conduct problems among adolescents. Method:…
