The study was proposed to find out the effect of frequent testing on students' academic achievement at undergraduate level. In this study, quasi-experimental pretest post-test control group design was used. Two intact groups, control (28) and experimental (51) were selected that were undergone a Research Methods course at undergraduate level. Two…

The COVID-19 pandemic kick-started a new paradigm shift in the way and manner teaching and learning takes place on the global scale due to the lockdown that succeeded in shutting down school activities. As a result, most institutions turned to technology supported e-learning as against the traditional face-to-face teaching and learning in order to…

The current study investigates teachers' conception and reflection of computer programming from scratch in terms of technological and pedagogical standpoint. Mixed research approaches typically achievement tests and interviews were used to collect quantitative and qualitative data respectively. A total of twenty-one Mathematics and Science…

Through a synthesis of test publisher norms and national longitudinal data sets, this study provides new national norms of academic growth in K-12 reading and math to help reinterpret conventional effect sizes in time units. We propose "d'," a time-indexed-effect-size metric to estimate how long it would take for an "untreated"…

This paper employed a quasi-experimental design with pretest-posttest control group to investigate the effects of the predict-observe-explain (POE) strategy on fourth grade students' academic achievement, attitudes towards science, and retention. Participants of the study were consisted of 60 students. Experimental (n=30) and control groups (n=30)…

This study aims to investigate the effect of a self-regulated learning strategies on developing creative problem solving and academic self-efficacy among intellectually superior high school students. The sample was selected from students in the high school in the Sultanate of Oman. The participants in this study were 80 students. Experimental…

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of remedial programs on the performance of low achievers in English language departments at Yanbu English Language Institute and Preparatory Year Program (YELIPYP). The purpose of the current paper seeks to highlight the key elements of the role of remedial programs and subsequently aims to develop…

Learning programming is a painful process for most students, especially those learning text- based programming languages. In this study, based on the principle of Bandura's social learning theory, the vicarious real-life experiences of several pioneers in the field of IT and programming were presented as 15-minutes stories to a group of 9th…

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of mathematics (math) diaries on academic achievement, metacognitive awareness and motivation of students in a mathematics lesson. The case study was conducted with a qualitative, quasi-experimental design and a quantitative, embedded multiple-case design as a mixed research model. The sample of…

The purposes of this research were (1) to construct a growth mindset program on improving the ability of teacher professional students to prepare projects (2) to examine the impact of the growth mindset curriculum, and (3) to examine the mental shift that occurs in students who get growth mindset instruction. Four-year education students in two…

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of probability teaching with the argumentation approach on the academic achievement of pre-service mathematics teachers and the permanence of probability knowledge. Quantitative research method was adopted in the study and quasi-experimental design was used. The study group consisted of 44…

The prime purpose of the current study was to investigate the effect of the predictive power of Jigsaw strategy on low proficient students' proficiency in mathematics and determine the effect of Jigsaw strategy on the mathematics achievement of middle-grades grade-two students. The current study included 80 students who were enrolled in the…

The aim of this study is to explore the computational thinking (CT) processes of university students with the integration of CAS and ACODESA method within the context of problem-solving. The participants of the study are 22 university students. The embedded design was used in the study. The qualitative data consists of the written products of the…

Explainable recommendation, which provides an explanation about why a quiz is recommended, helps to improve transparency, persuasiveness, and trustworthiness. However, little research examined the effectiveness of the explainable recommender, especially on academic performance. To survey its effectiveness, the authors evaluate the math academic…

The use of scientific calculators in teaching parabola functions has been shown to have significant effect in learner performance. This study examined the effectiveness of scientific calculators' usage in the teaching and learning of Grade 11 parabola functions to improve learner performance. Bandura's observational learning theory underpinned…
