Raynetta K. Wiggins – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Through instructional tasks, teachers can present content in ways that require students to apply critical thinking, problem-solving, and other cognitive skills. The purpose of this mixed methods collective case study was to determine how teacher-assigned instructional tasks in mathematics impact students' learning of mathematical concepts. In this…

Alf Coles; Nathalie Sinclair – Research in Mathematics Education, 2024
In this theoretical article, we explore the possibility that instead of a mathematical connection arising "in-between" two (or more) pre-existing ideas or objects, which have presumably been known or understood, that connection is itself the motor of understanding. The standard view of connection, in which two existing ideas or concepts…

Florian Budimaier; Martin Hopf – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
Although there has been extensive research on students' understanding of the particulate nature of matter (PNM), there is still a lack of research on contexts that can be used to teach this challenging topic. In a previous design-based research study, the authors developed a teaching-learning sequence (TLS) on the PNM in the context of crystal…

Junhua Xiao – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
The flipped classroom teaching model has been widely used in anatomy education to embrace a blended learning strategy. However, the impact that a continuous flipped classroom teaching model exerts on student learning of human topographic anatomy remains unclear. To address this question, student learning experience and performance were compared…

Sintje Liline; Anensiana Tomhisa; Dominggus Rumahlatu; Kristin Sangur – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2024
In this industrial revolution era, university-level education emphasises higher-order thinking skills. This research aims to analyse the effect of implementing the PjB-HOTS learning model on cognitive learning, creative thinking skills, analytical thinking skills, and metacognitive skills of the students studying osmoregulation concepts in Animal…

Ünal Çakiroglu – Learning: Research and Practice, 2024
This quasi-experimental study aims to compare the effects of using combinations of written text, animation and narration in multimedia courseware. 114 sixth grade students assigned in three conditions were participated in the study. Three versions of the courseware with combinations of animation, text and narration were developed taking modality…

Uwurukundo, Marie Sagesse; Maniraho, Jean François; Tusiime Rwibasira, Michael – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
We implemented GeoGebra software in Rwandan secondary schools to check its effectiveness during teaching and learning geometry concepts. The quasi-experimental design was used, and four schools were purposefully selected. Two schools were from Northern Province, while the other two were selected from Kigali city. A geometry-based test composed of…

Noll, Jennifer; Kirin, Dana; Clement, Kit; Dolor, Jason – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2023
Using simulation approaches when conducting randomization tests for comparing two groups in the context of experimental studies has been promoted as a beneficial approach for supporting student learning of statistical inference. Many researchers have suggested that the data production process in simulations for the randomization test intuitively…

Ziegler, Esther; Trninic, Dragan; Kapur, Manu – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2021
Productive failure has shown positive effects on conceptual and transfer measures, but no clear effects on procedural measures. It is therefore an open question whether, and to what extent, productive failure methods may be used to enhance the learning of procedural skills. A typical productive failure study focuses on a single, complex concept;…

Kim, Mijung; Jin, Qingna – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
Visualisation has been a critical means of scientific reasoning, knowledge development, and communication. In science classrooms, visualisation plays significant roles for teaching and learning. To better understand the landscape of the existing research on visualisation for supporting student science learning in K to 12 classroom contexts, we…

Hughes, Andrea – Primary Science, 2022
The author relates their involvement in the process of testing a picture storybook to teach science concepts. The project asked: If children were learning through a story where the science content was explicit, would children be able to explain the science in the context of the story and then in real-world contexts? Would the learning become…

Tadesse Hagos; Dereje Andargie – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
This study examines how students' conceptual and procedural knowledge of chemical equilibrium is affected by technology-supported formative assessment (TSFA) strategies. This study's embedded/nested mixed method research design was used to achieve the study's objective. A random sampling method was used to choose the sample of two intact classes…

Emmylou Aspacio Borja; Romel Cayao Mutya – Journal of Biological Education Indonesia (Jurnal Pendidikan Biologi Indonesia), 2024
Mendelian genetics are essential for students seeking to comprehend the complexities of inheritance; although fundamental, these biology concepts are difficult for students to understand. This study examined the effectiveness of task-based learning (TBL) in enhancing the students' conceptual understanding of the Patterns of Mendelian Genetics. A…

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…

Fatimah H. Aldeeb; Omar M. Sallabi; Monther M. Elaish; Gwo-Jen Hwang – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: This paper examines the use of augmented reality (AR) as a concept-association tool in schools, with the aim of enhancing primary school students' learning outcomes and engagement. Conflicting findings exist in previous studies regarding the cognitive load of AR-enriched learning, with some reporting reduced load and others indicating…
