The learning of mathematics generally undergoes a less effective and less appealing learning process, resulting in students' perceived lack of mastery of the material. Consequently, students' insufficient understanding of the concepts leads to a lack of folding back. In the process of understanding, it influences individual characteristics, where…

In recent years, inquiry-based learning and collaborative learning are widely used in education. They have great effects on cultivating students' core competencies. However, most studies only focus on their individual effects. Little research has been done on how their combination helps students with teamwork and problem-solving. This study used a…

The Internet is nowadays an integral part of adolescents' everyday life, bringing several benefits but risks as well. Although adolescents are familiar with technology, there seems to be a gap in their knowledge in safety and data protection on the Internet. So it is clear that adolescents have to be educated on relevant issues and serious games…

Background: Civic learning is an increasingly salient topic in research, policy, and practice. However, the recent empirical evidence on access to civic learning opportunities in the U.S. is limited, and monitoring learning opportunities is equally as important as monitoring learning outcomes. Methods: We build on prior research using survey items…

This qualitative study aims to investigate the mediation strategies employed by teachers who participated in a professional development (PD) course, focusing on the teaching of Grade 9 linear equations. Within the context of the PD course, teachers engaged with various pedagogical approaches for teaching linear equations and other secondary school…

This article seeks to bridge two educational concepts: the "Knowledge-Building Community" (KBC) and "Polyphonic Education" (PE), both of which address the contemporary challenges of constant change and complexity. First, it outlines a collaborative knowledge-building process within a professional community of teacher trainers.…

The increasing prevalence of AI in everyday life has intensified the emphasis on teaching AI literacy to children. However, there is no consensus on the specific knowledge and skills that constitute children's AI literacy, resulting in varied AI learning materials for young people. We systematically searched for educational practices for…

Artificial intelligence (AI) presents a unique technological quandary for music educators. Never before has a new tool been lauded and feared to the degree that AI is presently. As AI is an emerging influence in music teaching and learning, in this paper, I examine the past to inform critical action moving forward. Using prior literature in music…

Factor analysis is a statistical method to explore the relationships among observed variables and identify latent structures. It is crucial in scale development and validity analysis. Key factors affecting the accuracy of factor analysis results include the type of data, sample size, and the number of response categories. While some studies…

Teachers play a key role in promoting flexible mathematical thinking in society. There is a growing need to develop better methods for both pre- and in-service teacher training, but not enough is so far understood about what knowledge and skills teachers use in practical teaching situations. The means for investigating this are few. A new analytic…

Gamification is gaining prominence in design education, offering innovative methods to enhance student engagement and develop critical competencies such as collaboration, creativity, and problem-solving. This study investigates the integration of gamification into a first-year Design Research course at ATLAS SkillTech University, Mumbai, India,…

In an era of rapidly advancing technology, integrating digital tools into literacy instruction has become a vital component of effective educational practice. This article presents findings from a case study examining how digital technology was incorporated into the literacy block of a first-grade classroom. Through sixteen hours of classroom…

In the rapidly evolving language education landscape, integrating innovative pedagogical approaches is essential to meet the diverse needs of learners. This study explores the efficacy of a Micro-Learning Media with Station Rotation Blended Learning Model (MLM-SRM) in enhancing the Japanese communication skills--specifically speaking, listening,…

This article critically examines deficiencies in the final year high school programme, particularly in the Physics-Chemistry and Mathematics A and B specialties, focusing on the inadequate transition from classical to quantum mechanics. Based on teachers' perceptions, the study analyses the value of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and…

Elementary (5 [approximately] 11 years old) students with mathematics difficulties often struggle with word-problem solving. This systematic review and network meta-analysis aimed to examine the comparative effectiveness of various instructional strategies and their combinations for improving word-problem solving skills in this population. We…
