The growing use of generative AI (GenAI) has sparked discussions regarding integrating these tools into educational settings to enrich the learning experience of teachers and students. Self-regulated learning (SRL) research is pivotal in addressing this inquiry. One prevalent manifestation of GenAI is the large-language model (LLM) chatbot,…

Duruk, Ümit; Akgün, Abuzer; Güngörmez, Hatice Gülmez – International Journal of Curriculum and Instruction, 2021
The achievement of a proper conceptual change is a challenge for students since there are some constraint-based interactions including different ontological categories with the well-known dichotomy of matter or process. To mitigate this state of affairs, more instructional sequences with pedagogical approaches are needed because many students,…

Snead, William R.; Joseph, Manjula; Capriotiti, Michael; Saminatahn, Swega; Parewa, Abhinav; Thao, Chinhuor; Belogortsev, Aleksandr – Online Submission, 2023
This research study sought to determine whether pre-reading assignments have an impact on a student's academic performance. Learning a new topic which oftentimes seems foreign is never easy. However, reading a short article or reviewing a slide-show presentation on the lecture topic before the lecture happens (otherwise known as a pre-reading…

The Role of Math and Science Exposure on the Effect of 5E Instructional Model in Physics Conceptions
Bahtaji, Michael Allan A. – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2021
5E instructional model is commonly utilized in science teaching to promote conceptual learning. However, the benefit of 5E instructional model cannot be fully attained if the knowledge and skills essential to learning were not properly established from past. Similarly, the development of new concepts cannot be fully attained if the important…

Bao, Lei; Fritchman, Joseph C. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
Newton's third law is one of the most important concepts learned early in introductory mechanics courses; however, ample studies have documented a wide range of students' misconceptions and fragmented understandings of this concept that are difficult to change through traditional instruction. This research develops a conceptual framework model to…

Yilmaz, Rabia Meryem; Topu, Fatma Burcu; Takkaç Tulgar, Aysegül – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
The purpose of this study is to discover pre-school children's vocabulary learning, retention levels, and perspectives of English language learning using augmented reality (AR) technology. To achieve this goal, a one-group pre-test, and post-test design was used to assess the effect of using AR-supported educational toys on pre-school children's…

Ping, Raedy; Parrill, Fey; Church, Ruth Breckinridge; Goldin-Meadow, Susan – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2022
Many undergraduate chemistry students struggle to understand the concept of stereoisomers, molecules that have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms but are different in how their atoms are oriented in space. Our goal in this study is to improve stereoisomer instruction by getting participants actively involved in the lesson.…

Altmeyer, Kristin; Kapp, Sebastian; Thees, Michael; Malone, Sarah; Kuhn, Jochen; Brünken, Roland – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
Learning with hands-on experiments can be supported by providing essential information virtually during lab work. Augmented reality (AR) appears especially suitable for presenting information during experimentation, as it can be used to integrate both physical and virtual lab work. Virtual information can be displayed in close spatial proximity to…

Bajwa, Neet Priya; Perry, Michelle – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2021
Elementary school students struggle in interpreting the equal sign as a symbol denoting equivalence. Although many have advocated using a pan-balance scale to help students develop this understanding, less is known about what features associated with this model support learning. To attempt to control and examine these features, the investigators…

Lucas, Lyrica; Helikar, Tomáš; Dauer, Joseph – International Journal of Science Education, 2022
Comprehensive understanding of complex biological systems necessitates the use of computational models because they facilitate visualisation and interrogation of system dynamics and data-driven analysis. Computational model-based (CMB) activities have demonstrated effectiveness in improving students' understanding and their ability to use and…

Prestholdt, Tara; Fletcher, Vail – Bioscene: Journal of College Biology Teaching, 2018
Experiential learning provides students the time and space to participate in the process of learning by engaging in real, modern situations. Via hands on activities and reflection, students are able to assimilate new experiences with previous ones, and it has been repeatedly shown to improve student learning. We assessed how ten days of…

Furqani, Dandy; Feranie, Selly; Winarno, Nanang – Journal of Science Learning, 2018
Scientific learning in schools requires not only students' ability to understand concept, but also critical thinking abilities of the students. However, the current scientific learning process is still focused on only cognitive aspects. Therefore, a teaching model or strategy that is able to support students to understand concept as well as…
