Background and Context: Computational thinking (CT) is a critical part of computing education in middle school. The existing practices of collaboration and collaborative design activities at this education level pairs well with CT practices, but this interaction has previously been under-explored in the existing literature. Objective: In this…

Storytelling plays a central role in human communication and in conflict. This activity can be used to teach students the importance of telling stories to better understand conflict or simply to practice storytelling. By engaging in mediations, students simulate the process of resolving conflict, practice storytelling, and improve their active…

The concept, development and assessment of computational thinking have increasingly become the focus of research in recent years. Most of this type of research focuses on older children or adults. Preschool age is a sensitive period when many skills develop intensively, so the development of computational thinking skills can already begin at this…

This study aims to prepare an educational program based on integrating Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) to develop students' mathematical thinking skills. It also aims to provide proposals that could have a major role in rebuilding some of the general features on which mathematics curricula can be built according to the STEM…

Facilitating Computer Science Unplugged (CS-unplugged) activities with reflective thinking activities lead students to in-depth reviews of their decisions and think of ways to solve the CS-unplugged problems. This study aims to evaluate the instruction enriched with reflective thinking activities to develop computational thinking skills. The study…

This article presents an exercise designed to instill growth mindsets in business students and to demonstrate their effects on achievement motivation. The main points of the exercise are to introduce implicit theories of intelligence (i.e., fixed and growth mindsets), demonstrate that mindsets are malleable, apply growth mindset strategies, and…

The rise and development of new network technologies have shaped a new information revolution. At the same time, they have penetrated education, including football training. The study aimed to determine the impact of network technologies on players' ability to cooperate, be engaged, and be creative when teaching football tactics. ANCOVA (analysis…

Online education is now a common mode of delivery to support continuous education and training for adults. A range of technological platforms and processes have evolved to make online learning more engaging and effective, notably since the pandemic. Notwithstanding the widespread adoption of online education, research shows that many adult…

Educational outcomes in Kuwait have lagged behind those of much of the world. This problem is compounded by Kuwaiti educators' struggle to introduce core math and science concepts to young learners. Starting from the premise that STEAM-oriented education will make these concepts more accessible, this study seeks to demonstrate the potential…

Computational thinking (CT) skills are critical for the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, thus drawing increasing attention in STEM education. More curricula and assessments, however, are needed to cultivate and measure CT for different learning goals. Maker activities have the potential to improve student CT, but…

While Internet of Things (IoT) devices have increased in popularity and usage, their users have become more susceptible to cyber-attacks, thus emphasizing the need to manage the resulting security risks. However, existing works reveal research gaps in IoT security risk management frameworks where the IoT architecture -- building blocks of the…

Background: Speech and language therapy (SLT) education must meet the needs of the future workforce, training enough students who are competent practitioners able to meet the workforce demands. Increasing student numbers and the impact on placement providers mean students must be equipped for learning on placement. Simulation is a way of…

This study focused on determining the experiential learning activities required of business education students for the development of various 21st century competencies and differences across levels of academic instruction. The study was a descriptive survey, and 341 full-time business education students in a Public University in Anambra State,…

In this study, a STEM activity was designed and implemented for eighth-grade students. The activity was used with thirty students and involved the construction of various hologram pyramids. During the activity, the mathematical concepts used in designing the hologram pyramids were discussed and the resulting hologram images were compared…

Multiparty negotiations are a unique context in which three or more parties have different issues, priorities, and underlying interests. The Football Stadium Expansion is a four-person negotiation exercise that reinforces distributive and integrative negotiation skills (e.g., recognizing priorities, making concessions) as well as introduces three…
