The emotional intelligence models have helped to develop different tools for construct assessment. Each theoretical paradigm conceptualizes emotional intelligence from one of two perspectives: ability or mixed model. Ability models consider emotional intelligence as a pure form of mental ability and therefore as pure intelligence. Mixed models of…

Dyslexia is a specific learning disability caused by a neurological problem. It is a worldwide problem with a prevalence of 5-10% of the population. It is described mainly by difficulties in reading, spelling, accuracy, fluency, and decoding abilities. This article is chiefly concerned to provide an overview of dyslexia, some key issues based on…

In this paper, we first introduce functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), followed by a review of three themes of neuroimaging research on the neural correlates of reading-related skills: (1) typical and struggling readers, including developmental dyslexics, (2) an inverted U-shaped function in second-language reading that portrays an…

The purpose of this study was to improve children's cognitive ability of Group A in ECE Yasmin Jember, which was focused on (1) the ability to recognize simple concepts in daily life; (2) the ability to observe and curiosity; (3) the ability to classify; (4) the ability to relate cause and effect. This study was conducted by using qualitative…

In the wake of increasing evidence that students' positive attitudes towards science particularly in chemistry and physics change strikingly as they move up in school, this study explores student perception of intrinsic and extrinsic factors that make them feel cognitive load in learning physics, chemistry and biology resulting in difficulty to…

Mathematics education usually concentrates on achievement in cognitive domain. As the subject triggers many negative emotions among students, research in mathematics education needs attention on affective outcomes. Learning goals, perseverance, learning strategy and decision regarding future learning may influence students' affect. Students hold…

Research proved that teaching styles can make or break the learning process. Hence, performance of learners must be geared towards a learning environment that is engaging, enjoyable and fruitful. Anchored on Invitational Theory, Cognitive Abilities Theory and Sociocultural Theory, this study sought to determine the teaching styles of grade 7…

In order to self-regulate their learning, students need to use different strategies to plan, monitor, and evaluate their learning activities (meta-cognitive strategies), as well as to control their motivation and emotion (volitional strategies). Students' effectiveness in their self-regulated learning process also varies depending on the academic…

The development of e-learning materials for teaching and learning often needs to be guided by appropriate educational theories or models. As such, this paper provides alternative e-learning design pedagogy, the TSOI Hybrid Learning Model as a pedagogic model for the design of e-learning cognitively in science and chemistry education. This model is…

This review of the literature addresses the issue of assessing students with disabilities who are culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD). An examination of data showing disproportionate representation of students with disabilities who are CLD establishes a case for using alternative forms of assessment. Problems with some forms of traditional…

This paper presents an instructional model, developed as part of a research in the Autonomous Metropolitan University, Azcapotzalco, Mexico City. Elements of virtual learning environments and cognitive functions in the learning process supported by didactic strategies are described. Some general characteristics of instructional design are included…
