Selecting whose words to trust profoundly impacts children's learning behaviours. This study investigated Western and East Asian children's trust preferences for informants based on social dominance and its potential association with cultural factors. Sixty-six European American children in the United States (M = 5.44 years, SD = 0.80 years) and…

The article explores the importance of university students' knowledge of the world as an essential prerequisite for facing digital, ecological and human transitions. A study of 50 third-year students of primary education sciences investigates (a) familiarity with reflection during learning; (b) the influence of artificial intelligence in the…

Based on the UTAUT model, many studies have analyzed the factors influencing the use of artificial intelligence by teachers and students, but the conclusions are not uniform. This study chose high quality studies and encoded them to do meta analysis. After heterogeneity testing, sensitivity analysis and publication bias test, it has been found…

The traditionally studied positive outcomes of creativity tend to be product-focused, such as Big-C contributions, good grades, or strong work performance. This paper makes an argument for the importance of less-discussed products of the process--the benefits that arise from being creative, regardless of one's abilities or level of achievement.…

This paper combines recent developments in theories of knowledge (complex dynamic systems), technologies (embodied interactions), and research tools (multimodal data collection and analysis) to offer new insights into how conceptual mathematical understanding can emerge. A complex dynamic system view models mathematics learning in terms of a…

With the continuous evolution of information technology shaping advancements in education, virtual reality (VR) technology has been increasingly applied to enhance English learning amongst students, aiming to boost learning efficiency and performance. This study introduced a VR technology acceptance model (TAM) to fulfil these requirements. The…

Many students struggle with making sense of feedback information and in applying and transferring it to new contexts. Research literature suggests that low-performing students are especially at risk because they often do not understand assessment criteria and cannot utilise information they receive. This paper addresses this problem through…

The challenge posed by algebra story problems creates a significant hurdle for many students, transcending both the mathematical content of the problem and the specific instructional background received. This study offers a distinctive contribution to the existing literature by focusing on the cognitive conditions essential for comprehension in…

This study investigated the integration of ocean literacy in education. It explored the relationship between teachers' understanding of ocean literacy, participation in related activities, and inclination towards integrated learning. The research included two independent variables: teachers' understanding of ocean literacy and their involvement in…

Background/purpose: Mathematics education develops critical thinking and problem-solving skills, yet middle school students often face challenges, including didactical, epistemological, and ontogenic obstacles, that influence their academic orientation. This study investigates how Self-Organizing Maps (SOMs) can address these challenges by…

Background: Research on learners' reactions to failure finds negative emotions may present an obstacle for learning; a painful experience of failure may result in disengagement and avoidance. However, research on styles of emotion regulation and learning from failure is scarce. Self-determination theory's (SDT) conception of adaptive and…

Purpose: Knowledge management (KM) is a process that depends on changes and transfers to different levels of understanding among individuals and acts as a powerful tool to strengthen the organization to remove the barriers, affect the decision-making process and enable individuals and organizations to achieve sustainable advantages. This study…

While the significant impact of faculty feedback on student learning is well recognized, the intricate link between the quality of faculty feedback and students' deep approaches to learning, especially in the context of general education, has yet to be clarified. Employing a mixed-methods approach, this study examined the relationship between…

Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) students are typically taught content delivered didactically and closely aligned with the laboratory demonstration of concepts, which facilitates the development of experimental skills. Because of the volume of content delivered across multiple courses, student cognitive abilities can be…

Background: Past studies on mindsets have mostly examined them as an individual difference variable. However, the mindset-by-context framework argues that mindsets do not occur within a vacuum, and their successful implementation depends on the social context. One of the most important social contexts for students is the socioeconomic conditions…
