The persistence of learning styles as a concept in educational discourse and research is paradoxical, given the overwhelming evidence discrediting the matching hypothesis, the notion that aligning teaching methods with students' preferred learning styles enhances achievement. This paper examines the resurgence of learning styles across…

Metacognitive instruction supports L2 listening learners to enhance their listening comprehension skill. To date, some review studies have investigated this topic; however, none of them has reported quantitative and qualitative findings in the form of a systematic literature review. This research addresses this gap by collecting, analyzing, and…

This study explores the correlation between technology utilization and language acquisition while analyzing the impact of moderating variables on this relation. Our meta-analysis approach analyzes data from 43 extracts out of 19 primary studies published between 2012 and 2021. Our data analysis employs a random-effect model utilizing a…

The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model has been widely used to explain user intention and use behavior. Past research has added attitude to the UTAUT framework to examine further how it influences technology adoption. This study utilized a combined meta-analysis and structural equation modelling [approach] to examine…

The ethnomathematics approach is considered effective on students' mathematics learning achievement. Integrating culture and mathematics can provide meaningful mathematics learning so that it makes it easier for students to understand mathematical concepts. However, previous research investigating the effectiveness of applying an ethnomathematics…

This article presents a meta-analysis of the existing literature using Stata 18.0, focusing on the effects of ITSs on learning attitudes, knowledge acquisition, learner motivation, performance, problem-solving skills, test scores, and educational outcomes across different countries and educational levels (k = 30, g = 0.86). The findings suggest…

In Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) programs, the quality of teacher-child interactions is regarded to be important for children's vocabulary development. However, prior studies on the relationships between teacher and child, as measured by the Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS), and children's vocabulary skills are inconsistent.…

Given the information age, an important educational objective is cultivating innovators who can propose unique ideas. Learner-centred education is a way to achieve this objective; however, what is the current effectiveness of learner-centred education? A meta-analysis was conducted to analyse 72 effect sizes from 42 quantitative studies to…

The use of mobile technology in physics education has become more prevalent, but more data about its effect on student academic performance needs to be collected. This meta-analysis examines the effects of mobile learning on student achievement in physics and any moderating factors. The study collected 36 primary studies from various scientific…

Peer learning is a distinct category of student support gaining popularity globally and in South Africa, although these are typically informal approaches which have not been sufficiently researched to examine their influence and impact. Some scholars have criticised the available research as patchy, inconsistent, and methodologically weak.…

It was aimed to review the effect of the use of augmented reality applications on the academic achievement of students in science education in this study. In line with this aim, the experimental researches reviewing the effect of use of augmented reality applications within the scope of science course on student achievement were evaluated with…

This systematic review and meta-analysis appraised and synthesized mathematics interventions research addressing rational number concepts for students with mathematics difficulties (MD) in Grades 3-9. Included studies (n = 28) meet the What Works Clearinghouse Group Design standards (Version 4.0) for study quality. Across all studies, we found…

Design-based learning (DBL) offers opportunities to support students' content understanding. Previous DBL studies reported different effect sizes by using the data from one participant group. The goal of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis that would give a comprehensive picture of how DBL is connected to student achievement in different…

The purpose of this study was to reveal the effect of digital technology-assisted STEM (Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education on academic achievement. To achieve this purpose, experimental studies, including pre-test and post-test, were examined by meta-analysis. The study's data were obtained from 34 studies that met the…

Multiple meta-analyses have now documented small positive effects of teacher professional development (PD) on pupil test scores. However, the field lacks any validated explanatory account of what differentiates more from less effective in-service training. As a result, researchers have little in the way of advice for those tasked with designing or…
