Shen Qiao; Samuel Kai Wah Chu; Susanna Siu-sze Yeung – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2025
Morphological analysis is a form of problem solving to work out the meanings of unfamiliar words by applying knowledge of morphemes. It has emerged recently as an important predictor of reading comprehension. However, while gamification can potentially be used to teach this skill, few studies have examined its use. To address this, a…

Glenis Gamarra-Pautt; Zoila Liliana Giraldo-Martínez – HOW, 2025
This study deeply examines the potential impact of Project-Based Learning (PBL) on the speaking abilities of a group of seventh-grade students at a public school in Cartagena, Colombia, and its connection to language learning strategies. A mixed-gender group of thirty-five students aged between 12 and 15 was randomly chosen for this explorative…

Indra, Roni; Komariah, Aan; Nurdin, Diding; Fadhli, Rahmat – Cypriot Journal of Educational Sciences, 2022
This study purposes to compare student learning activities in fully online learning and blended learning. This study uses the mixed methods approach (explanatory sequential model). 42 junior high school teachers were comprised as the sample. Learning activity questionnaire (LAQ) and interview procedures were used as a data collection tool. The…

Jihoon Kang; Jina Kim – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2024
While existing studies have underscored the educational benefits of generating explanatory hypotheses (EHs) in response to unexpected outcomes, empirical research on the underlying mechanisms driving their effectiveness in science learning remains limited. Thus, this study aimed to empirically examine the effectiveness of generating an EH for…

Development of an Inquiry Activity Model Emphasizing the Representation of Primary Science Textbooks
Soyeon Kim; Jung Bog Kim – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2024
Despite increased research interest in improving students' scientific inquiry abilities, how to conduct scientific inquiry using science textbooks that are easily accessible to primary school students remains understudied. This study developed and verified an inquiry activity model (IAM) to improve the performance of primary school students in…

Sung, Han-Yu; Hwang, Gwo-Jen; Chen, Chin-Yu; Liu, Wen-Xiu – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
The Analects of Confucius has been identified as an important and influential philosophy around the globe. However, in traditional instruction, it is difficult to express the spirit of this philosophy. Therefore, many students consider it as a big challenge to study the Analects of Confucius. To cope with this problem, in this study, an…

This study compares direct instruction to two constructivist approaches, namely experimentation and problem-based learning, in fifth-grade science learning in Hong Kong. Constructivist instructional approaches, contrary to direct instruction, stress on students' active role in constructing knowledge in learning. Experimentation and problem-based…
