Jyun-Chen Chen; Chia-Yu Liu – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2025
Background: Based on the embodied cognition perspective, interdisciplinary hands-on learning combines several disciplines, such as science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), to improve students' capacity to solve real-world problems. Despite the popularity of interdisciplinary hands-on learning, particularly the six-phase 6E model,…

Audra Skukauskait; Cristina Saenz; Michelle Sullivan; Katrina Hull; Jazmin Morales Rodriguez – Interdisciplinary Journal of Problem-based Learning, 2023
One educational approach aligned with problem-based learning (PBL) is invention education (IvE). Both PBL and IvE place an emphasis on resolving practical problems experienced by real people while engaging students in hands-on learning. In this interactional ethnographic study we examined the networks that supported a high school team and their…

Courtney, Scott A.; Armstrong, Brittany – European Journal of STEM Education, 2021
In order to promote geometric understanding, teachers frequently use hands-on activities. Such activities can be used to expound upon the declarative statements and theorems of geometry. Using a compass, straightedge, and protractor, students are able to actively build conceptions involving bisectors, midpoints, and perpendicular lines.…

Maphutha, Kgaladi; Maoto, Satsope; Kibirige, Israel – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2022
The study explored the effect of the activity-based approach (ABA) on grade 11 learners' performance in solving two-dimensional (2D) trigonometric problems. A sequential explanatory design was used, starting with the quantitative, followed by the qualitative method. The experimental group (EG) and the control group (CG) were facilitated using ABA,…

Hong, Jon-Chao; Hwang, Ming-Yueh; Liu, Ming-Chou; Tsai, Chi-Ruei; Tai, Kai-Hsin – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2020
The Chinese proverb "heal a headache by curing the head and heal foot pain by curing the feet" alludes to ineffective work resulting from a lack of covariation in reasoning. Actually, much problem solving relies on the analysis of how two or more factors vary in correlation with another related variant (i.e., covariation reasoning). To…

Amélie Lemieux – Reading Research Quarterly, 2024
This article delves into moments of affect, puncturing the exchanges between an early career 2SLGBTQ+ researcher and a group of Canadian adolescents, mostly composed of girls, who developed a ClayMation video to take the pulse of emerging vibrancies in maker literacies. Among these dynamisms came the matter of gender in the research project.…

Hughes, Andrew J.; Merrill, Chris – Technology and Engineering Teacher, 2020
As the authors are proponents for engineering education that is done well, they have provided an explanation of truss design using the Method of Joints that combines the application of practical hands-on learning with sound mathematical and scientific theory. The Method of Joints will allow students to design trusses to meet specified criteria…

Rodriguez, Sophia; Lieber, Hannah – Journal of Experiential Education, 2020
Background: Career-focused education programs in the United States increasingly emphasize 21st century workplace readiness. These programs use project-based learning to develop a holistic, noncognitive skillset linked to an entrepreneurial mindset. Purpose: This study assesses the relationship between entrepreneurial mindset development and…

Robertson, Phyllis; Graves, Elizabeth; Bobilya, Andrew J.; Murdock, Todd; Brotherton, Dale; Hunter, Sara – Journal of Outdoor Recreation, Education, and Leadership, 2020
This exploratory study examined the benefits of participating in a three-week, multi-state bicycling trip for eight adolescents who participated in a first-generation, college-bound program. The primary purpose of this study was to explore participants' perceptions of their own resilience, independence, responsibility, and problem-solving and to…

Tobin, William; Feit, Valerie – Teachers College Press, 2020
New research points to the future of education as online, student-centered, collaborative, and community-based--all largely absent from today's educational landscape. This timely guide shows middle, high school, and college students how to undertake research to address challenges in their curriculum and communities. The approach is deliberately…

Conklin, Kristen; St. Clair, Tyler – Science Teacher, 2019
Project-based learning (PBL) in the science classroom provides an opportunity for students to investigate socioscientific issues that are current, authentic, and relevant. In a typical PBL unit, the teacher designs a narrative plan and acts as a facilitator who helps gather and organize student ideas. The framework of the Next Generation Science…
