Background: Despite increasing attention on emotional labor in teacher well-being research, person-centered studies are relatively scarce, particularly concerning the emotional labor of online teaching during COVID-19 and its effects on teachers' non-work-related mental health. Objective: This study aims to address these gaps by examining…

We show how the principles of flipped learning that have been successfully applied to analytics classes taught face-to-face (F2F) at the undergraduate and graduate levels were emulated in corresponding online classes. Student satisfaction in the online flipped analytics classes was compared to student satisfaction in the F2F flipped analytics…

Higher-level learning goals can be achieved almost only through teaching methods which actively involve students in their learning. This study aimed to compare the effects of traditional teaching and flipped classroom methods on midwifery students' practical learning. This embedded mixed method study was conducted on 34 first-year midwifery…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is threefold: first, to explain the link between traditional same-age school structure and the impact this has on a school's capacity for individual and organisational learning; second, to explain why attempts to develop schools as learning organisations (LOs) invariably reify existing structures and practice,…

Complementing biology lecture courses with laboratory sections is nearly universal at undergraduate institutions, yet many topics in biology do not easily lend themselves to experiment-based laboratory activities. Topics such as comparative anatomy, evolution and systematics are often taught as passive, observation-based laboratories. In this…

As the United States is becoming increasingly culturally diverse, so are nurse educators expected to provide an evidence-based approach to training in a multicultural learning environment. Educators are to adopt culturally responsive strategies in response to the increasing ethnically and culturally diverse student population. Many nursing schools…

Flipped classroom learning methods have been gaining a lot of popularity in recent years. Educators have recorded many mixed results about the effectiveness of this method to achieve superior concept retention in students. Although there has been lot of research published about flipped learning, very little is known how this method affects the…

The COVID-19 pandemic caused educators across the country and around the world were required to replace in-person instruction of students with teaching/learning through online platforms for a period of months (Perifanou et al, 2021).

Topographic map-reading skills are critical for certain professions but can be difficult to learn. The purpose of this pilot study is to provide insight on the role augmented reality technology can play in the development of topographic map-reading skills. Using a situated cognition theoretical framework, this study tracks the development of…

Innovative activities carried out during school laboratory sessions include 'flipped learning' (FL), which is an interactive learning environment where the teacher guides students learn individually. This study examined the impact of the adoption of the FL approach on the academic performance of 2nd year science student teachers enrolled in the…

In this study, the effects of constructivist learning and computer-assisted instruction on the achievement and attitudes of high school 2nd grade students in learning folk literature unit were examined by comparing with traditional teaching methods. The sample of the study consisted of 60 high school 2nd grade students studying in a high school in…

This study aimed to investigating the impact of project-based learning strategy on action research skills of Jordanian basic school students in light of some variables while teaching the unite of "Water". Semi-experimental design was used on a sample of 9th grade female students distributed in experimental group of (40) and a control…

We now know how "best" to teach our students -- student-centered learning. Yet many of us face challenges when trying to design courses that are student-centered. In this paper, we present our experience with a Web 2.0 technology, VoiceThread, that has helped us address some of the challenges we have encountered when designing…

In this article, we have examined the effectiveness of teaching economics through project-based learning. For this purpose, we carried out an experiment at secondary schools in the Slovak Republic. We divided 123 students into control and experimental groups. In both groups, teaching was carried out on the same topic by the same teacher in the…

Academic performance of students is global issue of great concern to educators. This study sought to ascertain the effect of STEM problem-based learning as an inquiry approach on secondary school student's performance in Biology at government-owned secondary schools in Kebbi State, Nigeria. The non-equivalent control group design was adopted. Two…
