The aim of this study resonated with the pursuit of achieving enhanced engagement in teaching and learning that informs critical thinking, and knowledge retention among students. Despite the growing trend of technological integration in teaching and learning, however, there exists a lack of empirical evidence and comprehensive studies that…

This study investigates the impact of gamified learning, specifically through computerised and paper-based board games, compared to conventional teaching methods on science education for 10-year-old students. We conducted an experimental design with 574 Malaysian Type Chinese Primary School participants, using pre-and post-tests, questionnaires,…

Current educational reforms in Africa aim to cultivate problem-solving and critical-thinking skills among early childhood learners through a democratic educational approach. Ghana's newly adopted standards-based curriculum prioritizes the constructivist theory of learning which, among other aims, seeks the development of children's critical…

Integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into learning activities is an essential opportunity to develop students' varied thinking skills. On the other hand, design-based learning (DBL) can more effectively foster creative design processes with AI technologies to overcome real-world challenges. In this context, AI-supported DBL activities have a…

In this scientific investigation, the researchers have designed and developed a new model "The Framework of Self-Regulated Cognitive Engagement" (FSRCE) that integrates self-regulated learning (SRL) and cognitive engagement (CE), addressing the limitations of previously developed frameworks. The FSRCE model is guided by core principles,…

Entrepreneurship education has evolved to meet the demands of a dynamic business environment, necessitating innovative teaching methods to prepare entrepreneurs for market uncertainties. Large Language Models (LLMs) like the Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 (GPT-4), recognized for their exceptional performance on public datasets, are examined…

This paper presents a critical content analysis of the curriculum development process within the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (IBPYP) using the Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) framework. As a part of the globally recognised International Baccalaureate (IB) framework, the IBPYP has undergone significant growth. The…

A national curriculum for the study of computing became compulsory in English secondary schools in September 2014, replacing the study of information and communications technology with computer science (CS). This posed difficulties for teachers and students who did not have knowledge or experience of programming. This study was designed to…

To reduce the impact of parameter estimation errors on IRT linking results, recent work introduced two information-weighted characteristic curve methods for dichotomous items. These two methods showed outstanding performance in both simulation and pseudo-form pseudo-group analysis. The current study expands upon the concept of information…

Approximations of practice are opportunities for preservice teachers (PSTs) to engage in components of teaching. However, how the varying levels of complexity or authenticity of teaching create different learning opportunities for PSTs is underexplored. Forty-one studies related to approximations of mathematics teaching were reviewed to explore…

General chemistry courses serve as foundational curriculum within most STEM undergraduate curricula, and hence, it is essential to assess student knowledge and application of learning outcomes for courses such as Introduction to Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. Within the United States, paper-and-pencil examinations are typical for measuring…

Streaming is a divisive pedagogy in New Zealand due to the varied definitions of streaming, the ways streaming is perceived to influence the educational experience of young people, and the complexity of teaching students at a range of achievement levels. This article aims to gain an understanding of secondary school mathematics teachers'…

This study aims to analyze the learning resources of Islamic boarding schools written by kyai and santri (teacher and student of Islamic boarding school in Indonesia). This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature study design. The literature sources come from (limited by) seven books written by Kai and Santri at the Lirboyo Islamic…

Engineering students are expected to develop their professional skills throughout the course of their degrees. Yet, there is no clear consensus among educators of which skills are being developed or how this is done effectively. This scoping review has been produced to draw together and disseminate information on effective techniques for…

Authentic assessment -- where instructors create a realistic, cognitively challenging learning environment -- is critical in environmental science education. However, academic staff insufficiently rely on best practices in authentic learning due to lack of knowledge or interest. Here, we evaluate existing frameworks to improve the authenticity of…
