Learning to derive subgoals reduces the gap between experts and students and makes students prepared for future problem solving. Researchers have explored subgoal-labeled instructional materials in traditional problem solving and within tutoring systems to help novices learn to subgoal. However, only a little research is found on problem-solving…

The generative learning strategy of learning by drawing has received increased attention in recent years. Although this strategy is regularly used by educators, the literature suggests that the effectiveness of the method depends on several factors. In this review, we highlight recent research trends and methodological progress within the field.…

Higher Education has serious challenges regarding academic online teaching-learning-evaluation methods and tools. This study examined 980 students from diverse disciplines about their social-emotional-psychological (SEP) perceptions. We also examined the presence and desirability of 14 TLE (teaching-learning-evaluation) tools in the online…

This study was conducted to meta-analytically investigate the influence of teaching vs. no teaching expectancy on the learning effects of teaching after preparatory learning. A meta-analysis of 39 studies revealed that a weighted mean effect size for the effect of teaching after studying with or without teaching expectancy vs. merely studying…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies have been identified as a valuable component of digital game-based learning system (GBLS) activities. However, few studies have focused on the effects of information feedback on self-efficacy, SRL strategies, and perceived and actual learning effectiveness. Social cognitive and SRL theories describe the…

Effective learning strategies based on principles like personalization, retrieval practice, and spaced repetition are often challenging to implement due to practical constraints. Here we explore the integration of AI tutors to complement learning programs in accordance with learning sciences. A semester-long study was conducted at UniDistance…

Meta-strategic learning refers to a mediated construction of knowledge regarding when, why and how to apply a group of strategies for accomplishing cognitive tasks. This study examined the effect of meta-strategic learning of structure strategies on reading comprehension of expository texts by secondary school students under whole-class…

Cover-copy-compare is a self-management intervention strategy developed to improve students' academic performance, particularly in spelling. In academic intervention research, it is often assumed that students are completing the intervention as intended, yet this is seldom examined during intervention implementation or subsequent data analysis.…

This study examined a 6-week intervention in which fourth grade students either played fluency games or used pictorial flashcards to develop fluency with their basic multiplication facts. Students who played fluency games showed more growth than the pictorial flashcards, but an analysis of variance showed that there was no statistically…

Phylogenetic tree diagrams are commonly found in introductory biology curricula and represent the evolutionary relationships of organisms. Tree-thinking, or the ability to accurately interpret, use, and generate these phylogenetic representations, involves a challenging set of skills for students to learn. Although many introductory biology…

The growing focus on the active student engagement in learning and education has generated interest in exploring and adopting innovative teaching approaches. One such approach is the flipped classroom model. This quasi-experimental study was conducted to assess the impact of flipped classroom teaching pedagogy on the academic performance of 5th…

Constructivist instructional approaches have gained significant popularity in education as educators seek to create more engaging and effective learning environments. However, the effectiveness of these approaches in promoting student learning remains a subject of debate. This systematic review aims to synthesise existing evaluation-based research…

With the development of teaching theory, teaching workers gradually realize the importance of reading ability. Based on the development of new literature, this paper analyzes the relationship between students' reading ability and curriculum training through models. Combined with teaching cases, this paper integrates network-based learning…

Research on the effects of second language (L2) listening strategy instruction (SI) has gained momentum in recent years (e.g. Vandergrift & Tafaghodtari, 2010). However, the reported results have been inconclusive and varied across studies. Synthesizing the results of quantitative research in this domain, the present meta-analysis sought to…

As gamification is introduced into education, researchers believe it has the potential to improve online learning. However, the effects of gamified online learning (GOL) are mixed. Is it more effective than online learning? Given that no meta-analysis analyzes the effectiveness of GOL. This meta-analysis explores the effects of GOL on students'…
