Literacy skills are acquired during childhood through 'code-related activities', which are interactions and practices that directly engage children with written words. This study presents a scoping review and meta-analysis of 18 peer-reviewed articles that explore the relationship between these code-related activities and early literacy skills.…

The role of continuous professional development (CPD) in advancing basic school leaders in the context of the fourth industrial revolution (4IR) cannot be overemphasised in the actualisation of positive change in the school system. The 4IR transformed the nature of work across human endeavours, requiring school leaders to be trained and retrained.…

This chapter is a case study of the first and only public musicology program in the United States and how the program's courses embed the teaching of digital literacy. Suggestions for adapting and implementing some of the activities in disciplines outside of music are provided.

Instructors traditionally lecture on new content before providing practice problems, but learning is often superficial. Exploratory learning before instruction deepens conceptual understanding by giving students a novel activity to explore before direct instruction. We examined how increasing the salience of contrasting cases in exploration versus…

The trialogical approach to learning offers a framework for fostering novelty and innovation. However, the framework lacks the details needed to guide practitioners. More studies should understand how it can be effectively adapted into instructional practices. This study addresses this gap by examining collaborative interactions' role in a…

The creation of applications based on tangible interaction (TI) applications, particularly on tabletops, is a developing area that requires the collaboration of professionals with expert knowledge in specific domains. Having an authoring tool that facilitates interdisciplinary intervention in the design and implementation of such applications is a…

Various technological devices, especially information communications technologies (ICTs), have become increasingly remarkable in higher education to help develop students' skills and qualifications. Considering this trend, supported by several academic theories, this paper proposes a breakthrough guidebook for universities and other scholastic…

Cultural creative design activity and education involve the application of cultural inspiration. This study examines the impact of cultural inspiration distance and timing on designer' creativity in Targeted Cultural Creative Design Pattern (TCCDP). Four design novice groups attended the cultural product design experiment with a combination of…

Knowledge of scientific principles and practices is vital to creating informed citizens. At its core, science helps create citizens who question the why and how of things, while also increasing knowledge of the world and beyond. Humans by nature are curious and thrive when they are engaged in learning that relates to real-world situations relevant…

This research analyzed the effect of learning management on learning activities both directly and through moderating learning readiness variables. This research was an ex-post facto type of quantitative research carried out at the Universitas Muhammadiyah Makassar. The research variables consist of exogenous variables, namely learning management,…

Learning Management System (LMS) can track student interactions with digital learning resources during an online learning activity. Learners with different goals, motivations and preferences may exhibit different behaviours when accessing these materials. These different behaviours may further affect their learning performance. The purpose of this…

This study examined the effects of the engineering design-based activities developed in the context of aircraft engineering on the engineering design process (EDP) skills of students. Through the notebooks that the students provided during the implementation process, their EDP skills for each engineering design phase (identification of the…

In e-learning environments, most adaptive systems do not consider the learner's emotional state when recommending activities for learning difficulties, blockages, or demotivation. In this paper, we propose a new approach of emotion-based adaptation in e-learning environments. The system will allow recommendation resources/activities to motivate…

Many gifted students fail to be diagnosed, preventing them from receiving an education that is adapted to their characteristics, with activities that challenge their minds. Mathematics is one of the subjects in which they can demonstrate talent, where they often exhibit high skills in solving problems, handling numbers and performing spatial…

Learning logs collected by digital educational systems, increasingly deployed in educational settings, include clickstream logs recorded through page transitions in teaching materials and digital marker logs recorded by drawing a marker. A challenge with these learning logs is their low temporal and spatial resolutions. This paper proposes a…
