This research aims to determine the effect of the independent learning model assisted by plasticine media as a way to improve students' abilities in basic reading and writing so that it has an impact on elementary school students' phonemic awareness. The method used in this research is an experimental method with a comparison design of one group…

Background/purpose: The characteristics of each subject allow for adjustments to the learning model and the role that will be carried out by the teacher. One of them is Islamic education lessons with a diversity of student abilities and abstract and complex characteristics of Islamic education with its application. This research aiming to…

This study investigated whether transitory and persistent poverty spells were associated with children's learning (literacy and numeracy scores) and executive function outcomes in Ghana. Children resided in the Greater Accra region (N = 2,154; 49% female; M[subscript age] = 5.2 years at wave-1) and were followed at four-time points over three…

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…

Intro: The aim of the work is to prove the effectiveness of the recommendations developed by the authors for introducing the basics of storytelling into the educational process in the context of the development of sophisticated social skills. Methods: A survey method was used to determine students' knowledge of storytelling. Previously 52% of…

Peer assessment has an important role in teaching and learning nowadays. However, the existing techniques tend to be limited due to a lack of a suitable means to evaluate the accuracy of peer assessment activities and supervise peer assessment performances in an online environment. Hence, it is very necessary to develop new solutions encourage…

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…

In most mathematics textbooks, each lesson is followed by a set of homework problems in one of two ways -- blocked practice and mixed practice. Additionally, most mathematics textbooks rely on a common learning strategy called overlearning, that is, mastering a skill and continuing to practice this same skill. This study investigated the effects…

Mathematics is the queen of science, but many students struggle with this subject as slow learners. Slow learners can accomplish their full potentials with an appropriate learning approach. In this study, these slow learners were examined using Realistic Mathematics Education approach. Single subject research was employed in this study, with…

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence technologies, their pervasive use in every field, and the growing understanding of the benefits they bring have led actors in the education sector to pursue research in this field. In particular, the use of artificial intelligence tools has become more prevalent in the education sector due to the…

The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of the "sorogan" method in history learning to improve students' historical understanding and historical awareness. The research method used a quasi-experimental nonequivalent control group design, and the sampling technique used a cluster sampling with a sample size of 96 students.…

This study reports quantitative evaluation of changes in students' study approaches during the first semester of organic chemistry. Students were surveyed by a modified M-ASSIST (OCH-adjusted M-ASSIST) instrument adjusted to the specific student population. The validity of the data-model fit was assessed by confirmatory factor analysis. Students…

This mixed-methods study examines how 15 preservice teachers' self-regulated learning (SRL) skills relate to their ICC development in a teacher education course. ICC was assessed using a standardised exam and an open-ended cultural dilemma. Participants' SRL was assessed along 7 dimensions: planning, goal orientation, task strategies,…

The limitations of inquiry-based teaching modules impact the low critical thinking skills of students. The research objective is to develop an inquiry-based module to improve students' critical thinking skills. This development research uses the Borg and Gall model in designing and testing the module. The development was carried out in…
