We investigated the effect of cognitive training of executive functions on children's cognitive outcomes. To address this issue, a systematic meta-analysis of published research articles on cognitive training interventions was performed considering children's age, training duration, -procedure, and -technology in moderator analyses. The results (N…

Teachers often struggle to implement inquiry-based science teaching. To support them, IndagApp--a 3D educational app that offers curriculum-aligned, inquiry-based lesson plans--was designed. The app is rooted in the inquiry phases recommended in best-practices literature, which arguably align with most international standards. This study describes…

This paper presents a case study of two sixth-grade students' use of an iPad as an instructional tool for mathematics. Based on their written and oral responses, we investigated and analyzed their meaning making process with mathematical content in a classroom where the iPad was a central tool for teaching practices. The analyses were based on…

Purpose: This paper aimed to present the integration of contextualisation in the Department of Education (DepEd) existing module using mobile applications and to find out the influence of the contextualised module with mobile applications (CMMA) entitled Geometry Techy on learners' mathematics performance. Method: The module used…

Gifted students have potential to improve countries and this potential can be revealed and developed in schools where they spend most of their times with other regular students. However, these classrooms have some limitations for them; hence, they need some differentiated activities. Usage of dynamic geometry in mathematics lessons could be an…

Presenting text in digital format with annotation supports may relieve some of the cognitive load that hinders inferential comprehension for students with comprehension deficits. Science texts are particularly difficult, as the content may not be within the knowledge repertoire of a reader. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects…

This study aimed to investigate the effects of augmented reality (AR) activities on students' academic achievement and motivation in a biology course.
