Background: Teaching programming and computational thinking is becoming a major issue in many education systems. Numerous approaches are possible, but very few studies compare these different ways of implementing programming and computational thinking learning. Objectives: We compared three ways of teaching programming and computational thinking…

Co-taught lessons representing four co-teaching models (One-Teach, One-Observe; One-Teach, One-Assist; Station-Teaching; Team-Teaching) were developed and implemented by one science education faculty, one mathematics education faculty, and one special education faculty as part of the one-semester science and mathematics education coursework for…

This study investigates the correlation between learning styles (Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing, and Kinesthetic [VARK]) and information processing patterns (Parallel, Sequential, Top-down, and Bottom-up) among Senior High School Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) learners, specifically in the context of Biology. The…

The development of information and communication technologies and the formation of a unified information space bring huge potential to the development of society. Specialists in the field of digital economy are increasingly in demand in the labor market. One of the main national tasks related to achieving universal digital literacy is facing all…

Digital image processing is an integral part of the computer vision field. However, traditional digital image processing teaching methods mainly focus on theoretical knowledge, lacking practical teaching content. To address this issue, this article proposes a project-based learning (PBL) model that consists of four key stages: project proposal,…

This study investigated the development of the integration among EFL student-teachers' PCK components during a 16-week mentoring-enriched practicum course. Data were collected from three EFL student-teachers using the content representation, follow-up interviews, and classroom observation. These data were then analyzed using the PCK Mapping…

The lack of an adequate e-learning readiness assessment has been characterized as a major cause of e-learning implementation failure. Consequently, overcoming the challenges leading to such failure requires the academic institution to carefully assess its readiness and make improvements based on the identified weaknesses. In response to…

Knowledge and its acquisition are central to the field of curriculum studies, but the ways in which empirical studies of pedagogical approaches relate to theories of knowledge acquisition are under researched. This paper reports the outcomes of a rapid evidence assessment about the impacts of "experiential learning" (EL), regarded by…

This paper critically reflects on how transformative learning (TL) is described both conceptually and as a process in the literature in different fields and national contexts. We articulate a definition of TL and justify why geography education is an ideal vehicle for enabling it. This is followed by a series of case studies explaining how TL can…

Learning is a continuous process involving teachers, students, materials, and the environment to achieve specific goals. One important aspect of learning is the use of learning media. This study develops a learning media in the form of a magazine on the human circulatory system and an inventory of antihypertensive medicinal plants in Sari Makmur…

The 21st century learning is an educational approach aimed at preparing students with relevant skills, literacy and knowledge in the digital era. The purpose of this study was to improve learning ownership, digital literacy, and students' cognitive learning outcomes through the application of the "Kuartet Biologi" application in…

Mid-career faculty are tasked with becoming the next generation of faculty leaders and mentors with minimal support and limited opportunities for professional growth and mentorship (Baker et al., 2019; Hamilton, 2022). To support mid-career faculty, the Office of Teaching and Learning (OTL) developed the University Teaching Leadership Fellows…

In Canada, the federally funded Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada (LINC) program follows a task-based language teaching (TBLT) approach using the Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB). Aligned with other communicative language approaches, TBLT de-emphasizes systematic instruction of the morpho-syntactic elements of language. Although TBLT…

Children's funds of knowledge (FoK) were recognised in the initial iteration of the Australian Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) in 2009, the mandated framework for educator decision-making, and their significance was further emphasised in EYLF 2.0 in 2022. However, a unified understanding of children as knowledgeable individuals and how to…

The emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) within the educational context underscores a focal point, especially in the field of STEM education. A key concern lies in the extent to which ChatGPT's responses align with established STEM pedagogy and whether its limitations, such as the absence of citations and reliance on a single perspective,…
