Curricula in different countries emphasize that teachers implement problem-based learning (PBL) practices to develop students with problem-solving skills and enhance their academic performance. However, several studies have revealed that academic performance among students, particularly in mathematics, is low, particularly in Tanzania. Using a…

This qualitative phenomenological study aimed to explore middle school students' perceptions of using the school-based cooperative problem-based learning (SB-CPBL) approach in learning science. The study examined how SB-CPBL differs from the students' usual learning, how the new approach affects their learning process and the main challenges of…

Problem-based instruction (PBI) is a research-based, student-centered instructional strategy that uses rich mathematical tasks to connect students' previously acquired math knowledge to new mathematical concepts. Unlike traditional teaching and learning strategies, PBI facilitates learning by making connections between mathematical concepts and…

The era of Industrial Revolution 4.0 has triggered an explosion of digitalization in all fields, especially information. This era of Industrial Revolution 4.0 has led to a shift in learning from face-to-face learning in the classroom to online learning. This study will determine students' argumentation skills and self-directed learning (SDL) in…

Do the advantages of increased student engagement in a project-based learning environment sustain during a pandemic when compared to a traditional program? Researchers were able to meet with students in both programs in a midwestern school district that gave them a choice between both project-based and traditional approaches. Semi structured…

Background: Students make many errors in visual programming. In order to learn from these, it is important that students regulate their emotions and view errors as learning opportunities. Aims: This study aimed to explore to what extent momentary emotions, specifically enjoyment, anxiety and boredom, as well as the error learning orientation of…

The purpose of this study was to analyze the activities in the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) methodology among high school students when solving problems related to the field of plane figures, both in extra-mathematical and intra-mathematical environments. The research was qualitative and constituted a case study. The technique used to select the…

This research aimed at examining the effect of problem-based learning (PBL) on students' entrepreneurship level in the Social Studies course. The research used an embedded design, which is a type of mixed-methods study. The participants were the 6th-grade students studying in a state secondary school in Agri during the spring semester of the…

This article, co-authored with a group of undergraduate secondary music student teachers, shares their experiences as they learned about additional support needs and inclusive practice through a series of 10 problem-based learning (PBL) sessions. Drawing from their reflections on the weekly sessions, the paper explores the students' learning…

The purpose of the investigation was to determine if there was a difference in student performance on the NYS Mathematics State Assessment between schools that implemented PBL versus those that did not. The aim was also to determine if there was a difference in students' and teachers' attitudes about the school community, specifically in rigorous…

Inquiry-based learning is not common in secondary geography classrooms in the United States. The goal of this initial foray into design-based research was to maximize the potential of online video-case technology to disrupt this trend and support geography teachers in enacting high-quality problem-based geographic inquiry (PBGI). Informed by…

The purpose of this study was to research the impact of classroom group rotation on student participation and collaboration during engineering activities. The action research plan was developed after identifying a need to increase group efficacy in a classroom setting that focuses on projects and problem-based learning and proved quite difficult…

Students' environmental knowledge and sustainability awareness are important competencies to prepare them to face global environmental challenges. The study aimed to evaluate the gender difference and correlation between students' environmental knowledge, sustainability awareness, and sustainability practice frequency after Education for…

This study investigates the impact of the problem-based learning (PBL) model on middle school students' environmental literacy and problem-solving skills. A quantitative research study was conducted using a quasi-experimental design for this aim. The sample comprises 114 8th-grade students from a public middle school in Sanliurfa, Turkey. Four…

This study aimed to investigate the impacts of enrolling in the creative teaching module in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education from high school students' perspectives. This study applied a case study and qualitative research approach involving 26 Grade 11 students and 31 Grade 8 students. The creative teaching-STEM…
