This study reports the findings of a mixed-methods investigation into learning and cognition that has been theoretically and methodologically positioned as embodied. Embodied learning places pedagogical value on the biophysiologically dependent nature of learning on the development of the central nervous system. Rooted in empirical evidence of…

How children participate in democracy has shifted toward more communicative, networked, and creative models than before. In political science and political theory, however, surprisingly little is understood about what if anything children can contribute to democracy and how they would do so. Traditionally, children have been considered as mere…

In this review, approaches to teaching and learning in environmental education were explored at a conceptual level to understand the diversity of pedagogies in the discipline. We applied systems thinking to make conceptual parallels between ecology (physical environment, plant species, traits, plant strategies) and education (environmental…

This study delves into the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) with Vedic pedagogy in management education, aiming to bridge the gap between traditional educational frameworks and contemporary technological advancements. By analyzing the application of AI to augment learning processes such as listening, introspection, critical analysis,…

The aim of this study is to develop a valid and reliable scale to measure the time traps teachers fall into during the teaching-learning process. The sample consists of 234 final-year students continuing their education at the Faculty of Education in the first implementation and 233 pedagogical formation students in the second implementation.…

This article discusses Deep Mapping in Geography teaching and learning by drawing on a case study of a summer school organised during the COVID-19 pandemic. Deep Mapping was used to foster deep learning among the students and teach them about a distant place and people. The exercise tasked the students to work on the creation of layered maps…

Intersection of education and deep learning method of artificial intelligence (AI) is gradually becoming a hot research field. Education will be profoundly transformed by AI. The purpose of this review is to help education practitioners understand the research frontiers and directions of AI applications in education. This paper reviews the…

While the potential of personalized education has long been emphasized, the practical adoption of adaptive learning environments has been relatively slow. Discussion about underlying reasons for this disparity often centers on factors such as usability, the role of teachers, or privacy concerns. Although these considerations are important, I argue…

This article attempts to address the challenge that preschool teachers face, when integrating a specific content area, science, with play. The study builds on the theoretical framework of Play-Responsive Early Childhood Education and Care (PRECEC), in which teaching, and play are understood as a mutual activity. In this mutual activity, teachers…

Introduction: The science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) approach is currently representing a new teaching and learning process, trying to make an interconnection between these disciplines and their transversalization with the arts to potentiate the thematic scope in students and create new pedagogical and didactic…

Query languages are the foundations of database teaching and education practices. The broad adoption of graph databases contrasts with the limited research into how they are taught. Contrary to relational databases, graph databases allow navigational queries with higher expressivity and lack an a priori schema. In this article, we design a…

Background/purpose: This study aims to analyze emerging trends in Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) for natural sciences over the last 17 years. The research identifies key thematic areas and examines their contribution to teacher training and pedagogical innovation through the suvidagogical model. Materials/methods: A systematic review was…

The solar energy sector plays a critical role in South Africa's energy transition, especially as it is one of the country's fastest-growing renewable energy sectors. It is envisaged that this growing sector will create numerous jobs in the short-, medium-, and long-term for intermediate-level skills development and will serve as an important…

The Reading and Appreciating Mathematical Proofs (RAMP) project seeks to provide novel resources for teaching undergraduate introduction to proof courses centered around reading activities. These reading activities include (1) reading rich proofs to learn new mathematics through proofs as well as to learn how to read proofs for understanding and…

Learning analytic models are built upon traces students leave in technology-enhanced learning platforms as the digital footprints of their learning processes. Learning analytics uses these traces of learning engagement to predict performance and provide learning feedback to students and teachers when these predictions signal the risk of failing a…
