This study investigates the implementation and impact of mastery learning in a computer science course, particularly during the transition from traditional teaching methods to mastery learning amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Employing a longitudinal research methodology, the study integrates a multi-faceted data collection approach, including…

While gamified technology integration in vocabulary instruction within a flipped classroom has yielded beneficial teaching outcomes, specific studies have raised concerns about potential adverse effects linked to this approach. As a result, conducting a comparative analysis between gamified technology and conventional paper-based methods within…

The aim of this study was to investigate whether there is a statistically significant mean difference in various entrepreneurial tendencies (including the need for achievement, need for autonomy, creative tendency, calculated risk-taking, and internal locus of control) between student-teachers who have received university entrepreneurship…

Phonological and phonemic awareness are foundational skills in reading development. This explanatory mixed methods study explored primary teachers' beliefs and knowledge of phonological awareness and their perceptions of Heggerty, a phonological and phonemic awareness curriculum. Analysis of quantitative and qualitative data from surveys and…

The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness of the parallel classroom model in comparison to a support facilitation model. Using district-level assessments in geometry, this study assessed student performance when students were taught the same content with the same rigor, where one classroom uses differentiation strategies and…

This study inspected how techno-competence in artificial intelligence (AI)-driven evaluations affected EFL learners' boredom, self-esteem, and writing skills. To do so, 66 Saudi Arabian male students from Saudi Arabia participated in the study. They were then split into the experimental group (EG) and the control group (CG). While the CG was…

This study uses a case study methodology to showcase the use of the DTSICM (Design thinking Strategy to Identify and Clear Misconceptions) model, which provides a design thinking approach to identify and clear a common misconception on photosynthesis, held by a sample of 27 A-level students. As a first stage, data collected through the…

Collaboration scripts and heuristic worked examples have been described as powerful scaffolds to support skill acquisition in CSCL. While CSCL scripts particularly facilitate argumentative discourse within groups, heuristic worked examples provide heuristics and worked out pathways to solve domain-specific tasks. Yet, both scripts and heuristic…

It is expected that children increasingly learn to identify errors throughout their schooling process and even before it. As a further step, however, some scholars have suggested how a culture of error should be implemented in the classroom for the student to be able not only to locate errors but also, and above all, to learn from them. Yet the…

While over the last couple of years, there has been a growing investigation into the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) within language learning, very little has been written regarding how such AI feedback influences the complex experiences of EFL learners in terms of motivation, foreign language peace of mind (FLPoM), trait emotional…

In Dynamic Assessment (DA), the observation that individuals respond differently to support, or mediation, is important for diagnoses of development. The concept of learning potential refers to openness to mediation, i.e., the extent of change to performance when mediation is available, which may suggest learners will need less overall instruction…

In order to design learning environments that foster students' research skills, one can draw on instructional design models for complex learning, such as the 4C/ID model (in: van Merriënboer and Kirschner, Ten steps to complex learning, Routledge, London, 2018). However, few attempts have been undertaken to foster students' "motivation"…

This mixed-method study explored the culturally responsive practices of a midsized, Southern California school district that used Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELOP) state funding to implement a voluntary summer program accessible to TK--6 grade students district-wide. Qualitative data gathered from semistructured interviews with the…

Although researchers have investigated the effects automated writing evaluation (AWE) and teacher corrective feedback have on second language (L2) writing performance, these studies have conflated two different variables--feedback source and perceptions of feedback source. Using a quasi-experimental design, two groups of second language English…

Purpose: Although English for academic purposes (EAP) courses are vital components of engineering disciplines in the universities of Iran, studies investigating engineering students' English language needs are infrequent, and even more infrequent are studies comparing how the students of different engineering disciplines vary in their English…
