Despite the benefits of integrated Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education that have been discussed for decades; many teachers still find it challenging to implement integrated STEM education due to lacking confidence and experience. Numerous models and frameworks exist, but they tend to focus on enhancing teachers'…

This article explores the practice of peace education within the Korean context, where national division has exerted significant cultural and structural impacts. By interviewing South Korean teachers actively involved in peace education, this study examines how such education can contribute to peacebuilding in a politically divisive environment.…

This study examines relationships among several variables within the context of online learning in higher education including self-regulated effort, maintained situational interest, gender differences, and age-related factors. Analyzing data from a diverse Open Cyber University of Korea student sample, the research highlights a positive…

Self-determination is an important motive that influences youth development outcomes. Self-determination theory emphasizes the relationship between social context, self-determination, and school educational outcomes. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between parental and teacher support, self-determination, career maturity,…

Both sequencing content and fading instructional support are scaffolding techniques designed to make it easier for learners to process information. While sequencing content separates problems into manageable parts before problem-solving, fading of instruction gradually reduces instructional support before problem-solving. Although cognitive load…

While many recent curriculum reforms recognise the value of history of science (HOS) in science teaching, in-depth investigations into teachers' experiences of planning HOS-based science lessons have been rare. We present a case study of two groups of preservice science teachers (PSTs) who collaboratively planned high school science lessons using…

This study aimed to integrate the results of prior studies on the effectiveness of AI education in K-12 Korean classrooms to draw systematic and comprehensive conclusions. To achieve this goal, a review of 64 studies on AI education in Korea that were conducted from 2019 to 2023 was subjected to a meta-analysis. The total effect size of AI…

For effective flipped learning, beyond simply switching the sequence of lectures and homework, it is important to understand and implement the fundamental design principles of flipped learning. A new notion is proposed called "flipped learning design fidelity," defined as the degree to which a class is faithfully designed to be close to…

The adoption of innovative pedagogy without clear guidance in adapting teaching approaches to English language teaching contexts has led to disconnects in meeting students' and teachers' classroom talk needs. One such innovation, the dialogic teaching approach, centres a principled conception of classroom talk to enhance pedagogical practice.…

In the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, all colleges in Korea were forced to transition to online teaching, as was the case in most of the rest of the world. This situation engendered confusion, frustration, and dissatisfaction among students as well as instructors. The present study examined college students' perceptions of online learning in…

The purpose of this study is to identify the structural relationships among online class related factors, zoom fatigue, learning engagement, perceived achievement, and class satisfaction in a university distance learning context. The study analyzed 265 responses from K University in Korea. The key findings of the study are first, situational…

Purpose: This study concentrates on South Korean university students' attitude towards cooperative learning by utilizing the "Student Attitudes toward Group Environments" survey (n = 427-181 female and 246 male) originally developed by Kouros and Abrami (2006). Design/methodology/approach: The purpose of this study is to unfold what…

With the growth of chatbots, concerns about implementing artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots in educational settings have consistently arisen, especially for the purpose of language learning. This study introduced a task-based voice chatbot called "Ellie", newly developed by the researchers, and examined the appropriateness of its task…

This study examined the effects of reflective practices (RP) on self-directed learning competencies (SDLC) as well as the relationship between technology-mediated collaborative learning (TMCL) as a reflective practice and SDLC in a preservice teachers' class. Regression analyses were conducted to examine the effects of RP on SDLC. In addition, a…

Preparing students to collaborate with AI remains a challenging goal. As AI technologies are new to K-12 schools, there is a lack of studies that inform how to design learning when AI is introduced as a collaborative learning agent to classrooms. The present study, therefore, aimed to explore teachers' perspectives on what: (1) curriculum design,…
