This study explored a conceptual model of competency tasks using the Competency-Based Education (CBE) Scale, grounded in the OECD's competency framework, which includes knowledge, skills, values and attitudes. The survey incorporates six OECD-defined skill types essential for human learning: cognitive, metacognitive, physical, practical, emotional…

Creating truly equitable education is a challenge. Equity, diversity, and inclusion endeavours are often characterized by a depreciative deficit-thinking and a problem-based view on diversity. In this article, we present the MIXED model (Multi-perspective Inclusive eXchanges for Equity and Diversity), which can support lecturers in establishing an…

This research uses a quantitative approach and aims to explain the effectiveness of online learning through the model of assisting parents during the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, this study used two variables, namely the parent assistance model as the independent variable and online learning activities as the dependent variable, with a total of…

The development of early childhood teachers' professional competence aims to equip them with accurate knowledge and understanding of learning management, as well as the ability to effectively organize learning experiences. The researcher is therefore interested in developing the professional competence of kindergarten teachers in rural areas with…

Background: Instructional design is essential for the implementation and quality of STEM education. However, it remains challenging to help teachers acquire pedagogical content knowledge and come up with novel instructional design ideas in STEM. education. Purpose: Guided by the full-perspective learning theory, this study proposed a conceptual…

This study investigated the effects of 3D model building activities with block codes on students' spatial thinking and computational thinking skills. The study group consists of 5th grade students in a secondary school in the Central Anatolia region of Turkey. For the study, a pretestposttest control group was utilized within the experimental…

The progress achieved in the models used by future Spanish primary school teachers on the phenomenon of tides is analysed after implementing a modelling-based didactic sequence. It was implemented throughout ten sessions in two classes (N = 88). An open-ended questionnaire was used as a data collecting instrument. Based on prior studies and the…

The emergence of COVID-19 favoured the development at Université de Montréal of an educational initiative aimed at promoting modelling and simulation in teaching and learning postsecondary mathematics. In our learning activities, modelling is not reduced to curve fitting; software is used and questions are asked to get a deeper understanding of…

Multimodal learning analytics (MMLA) research has made significant progress in modelling collaboration quality for the purpose of understanding collaboration behaviour and building automated collaboration estimation models. Deploying these automated models in authentic classroom scenarios, however, remains a challenge. This paper presents findings…

This research presents the results of the implementation of a model-eliciting activity called Brickyards, designed to promote the learning of the binomial distribution. The theoretical framework used was the Models and Modeling Perspective, and the participants were undergraduate students enrolled in a probability and statistics course of the…

Climate change is of great concern to all age groups but in particular to children. "Simple" climate models have been in place for a long time and can be used effectively with post-16 students. For younger children, modifications are required, and we describe in this paper the development and use of two such models. The first (the Granny…

Proteins are essential for cell function, and their biological performance depends on three-dimensional (3D) structures. Insulin is made up of 51 amino acids and is a critical hormone involved in glycaemia regulation. In basic education, concepts involving proteins (synthesis, structure, interactions, and function) are abstract and difficult for…

This study aimed to identify, develop, and validate components and indicators of academic management models in the digital era for improving academic achievement in secondary schools under Thailand's Office of the Basic Education Commission. A mixed-method approach was employed, encompassing comprehensive literature review, qualitative content…

Students encounter difficulties in understanding integral because the concept of integral requires the usage of theorems, formulas, daily life practices, and interdisciplinary approaches. From this point of view, in this study we examine the effects of a teaching process consisting of modelling activities on understanding the definite integral…

The concept of reflection is probably as old as educational discourse itself. It is an inextricable element of teaching and learning that enables teachers to identify and solve problems related to their teaching practice or learn more about various aspects of their profession. Therefore, to fully prepare reflective language practitioners, it is…
