Students in a typical instrumental analysis course may learn more than 30 analytical techniques. There are more than 150 components associated with the instrumentation that they learn. To help students organize this large amount of information, we classified these components into four categories: sources, samples, discriminators, and detectors. In…

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced universities worldwide to deliver emergency remote online teaching and learning. This study analyses teaching practices at a globally ranked Australian university. These practices were adopted to develop connection with students in the absence of face-to-face learning. Complex adaptive system theory is applied, and…

The aim of this study is to evaluate prospective mathematics teachers' knowledge of teaching strategies on geometric objects by observing their instruction through teaching practicum. Because the observation is of prospective teachers' teaching-strategy knowledge in real life contexts, conducting the study in a classroom environment enables this…

This quantitative research study was conducted to determine the level of the mathematics learners' self-concept and learning styles in relation to scholastic performance in modular distance learning modality. A modified survey questionnaire was distributed to 180 respondents. The respondents of the study were the Grade 9 mathematics learners who…

The aim of this investigation was to gain a broad sense of the implementation of digital social networks for teaching and learning by instructors in higher education. We were particularly interested in examples of instructors' use of digital social networks in their courses, the benefits and challenges of specific platforms for teaching and…

With a growing recognition of the need to go beyond text and look into the context where the writing (or the teaching/learning of it) takes place, the ethnographic perspective has been fruitfully adopted in academic writing research. The present study, integrating the perspective of genre and ethnography as methodology, probed into the context of…

Although there have been studies on the use of information and communications technology (ICT) as a pedagogical tool to enhance teaching and learning in physical education (PE), more research is warranted to understand perceived barriers and facilitators to usage. The purpose of the present study was to understand key factors that influence the…

In a recent article, Crider recommends ending a course with a memorable learning experience, called an epic finale, instead of a final exam. Here, we give the details of epic finales given in four mathematics courses: Discrete Mathematics, Information and Coding Theory, Real Analysis, and Complex Analysis. We describe how to reconfigure a course…

Studies maintain that computational thinking (CT) is associated with science content and scientific processes as well as with many disciplines. It is thought that designing teaching processes in which science and CT processes take place together makes science learning more meaningful. With this in mind, in this study, the researchers integrated…

This mixed-methods study examined prospective elementary teachers' (N = 32) mathematical knowledge and mathematics self-efficacy while learning about the Singapore Modeling Method in a university mathematics course. Pre- and post- quantitative data were collected via two content knowledge assessments and one belief survey, and qualitative data…

Teachers' mastery of learning technologies is highly necessary for the digital era. Among such skills is the ability of teachers to package learning materials using various software. One form of presenting learning materials with technology is an e-module. E-modules serve as the main teaching material in online learning and can also be used in…

Emerging research shows teachers and architects perceive higher numbers of affordances for learning in innovative learning environments (ILEs) than in traditional classrooms. Yet, offering ILEs alone will not bring about significant changes to teacher practices nor students' learning experiences. Supporting teachers to perceive and utilise spaces…

Despite the widely recognized significance of critical incidents (CIs) in teachers' professional learning, little research has investigated the role of CIs in language teacher identity development. This study attempts to fill this gap by exploring the contributions of a Telegram-based professional development course--framed around CI storying--to…

Object-oriented programming distinguishes between instance attributes and methods and class attributes and methods, annotated by the "static" modifier. Novices encounter difficulty understanding the means and implications of "static" attributes and methods. The paper has two outcomes: (a) a detailed classification of aspects of…

The paper is about a study that investigated how the integration of assessment for learning enhances learning achievement among secondary school biology students in Tanzania. A quasi-experimental design involving pre-test and post-test of non-equivalent control and experimental groups was used to ascertain how the integration of assessment for…
