Transdisciplinary thinking is crucial for addressing global challenges, yet standardized assessment tools for high school students are lacking. This study addresses this gap by developing and validating a transdisciplinary thinking scale (TTS) tailored for this demographic. Following established methodologies, the TTS was crafted through expert…

Open education and vocational education are crucial for building a learning society and promoting national development. This study uses CiteSpace software to conduct an in-depth analysis of keywords visual timelines for research hotspots, and keywords with the strongest citation bursts in China and other countries. Given the rapid global…

Objective: There is substantial evidence supporting the distinction between cognitive disengagement syndrome (CDS) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), particularly from the inattentive subtype. However, despite proposed etiological and phenomenological similarities, the relationship between CDS and dissociation remains…

This study aims to investigate the role of social support--specifically from family, teachers, and peers--in enhancing computational thinking (CT) abilities among elementary school students. Grounded in social support theory, the scales related to teacher, parental, and peer support were adapted from the PSIA test. After ensuring their reliability…

Background: Computational thinking (CT) is a fundamental ability required of individuals in the 21st-century digital world. Past studies show that generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) can enhance students' CT skills. However, GenAI may produce inaccurate output, and students who rely too much on AI may learn little and be unable to think…

Misinformation on critical topics such as public health and climate change is a global concern. To address this, our project implements digital literacy (DL) by engaging biology and journalism students through multidisciplinary project-based learning (PBL). This teaching innovation incites collaboration and metacognitive learning, moving beyond…
