Fieke Sluijs; Sabine G. Uijl; Eelco T. C. Vogt; Bert M. Weckhuysen – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Sustainability transitions need professionals with specific skills and attitudes that students often do not develop in their regular chemistry education. To foster sustainability change-maker competencies, we suggest augmenting higher education curricula, e.g., chemical degree programs, with transdisciplinary challenge-based learning combined with…

Marleny Leasa; Mariana Rengkuan; John Rafafy Batlolona – Journal of Education and Learning (EduLearn), 2024
Metacognition is one of the key learning skills in the 21st century, with a strong potential to help students succeed in science learning. Until now, this metacognitive awareness is less empowered by lecturers in learning. This study aimed to analyze the problem-based learning (PBL) reading-questioning-answering (PBLRQA) model's effect on…
