Despite the importance of Student-Centered Learning (SCL), limited information exists in the literature on how SCL can be facilitated by various educational technologies. This study, therefore, explores the literature to investigate the role of educational technology in supporting SCL. Particularly, it builds on the American Psychological…

This study presents a panoramic overview of research conducted between 2010 and 2020 on how the Personal Learning Environment (PLE) supports Self-Regulated Learning (SRL). We elaborate on why the PLE is suitable for SRL, discuss its research themes, explain how the PLE supports SRL and outline the available PLE platforms. The review method we used…

Project-based learning (PjBL) is an inquiry-based approach that aims to engage students in active, meaningful, and challenging experiences connected to the world outside the classroom. However, PjBL's student-centered approach has not always explicitly focused on educational equity. The goal of this paper is to provide a PjBL curriculum design…

STEAM education is designed to prepare students for the twenty-first-century life skills and has been extensively investigated in the past 10 years. Given the rapid evolution of educational practices and the diverse ways in which STEAM is implemented in science classrooms, there is an urgent need for an analysis of the current outlook of STEAM…

The increasing diversity among higher education students urges researchers to expand research methodologies beyond traditional quantitative approaches. A growing number of higher education researchers have employed mixed methods research (MMR) approaches in studies centering on minoritized student populations. In this review, we identified and…

The concept of personalized education has been widely approached by multiple authors, who have contributed their own point of view on this theory, moving it further away from its unique and universal definition. To get to build this definition, it is first necessary to verify and scientifically determine whether this concept encompasses the same…

Entrepreneurial education in different contexts has gained relevance in educational institutions, incorporating various models to enhance the development of competencies in students. This literature review aimed to analyze publications from 2014-2021 to identify the models, methods, strategies, and resources used in entrepreneurship education and…

Purpose: The psychological theory of self-determination postulated that gamification enhances learning engagement by intrinsically motivating learners to undertake tasks spontaneously. Gamification has then been integrated into adult learning as part of the initiative of learner-centred pedagogies to curb the low retention rates of adult learners…

Background: The provision of speech intervention in children requires personalized, child-tailored approaches. Different speech-intervention approaches exist to eliminate cleft-related speech errors in children with a cleft palate. However, it is unclear what approach works best for the subtypes of cleft-related speech errors. Aims: To describe a…

The flipped classroom is an emergent digital pedagogy credited with virtuous and student-centric characteristics of increased learning. The purpose of this study was to discuss the implementation of the Flipped Classroom Blended Learning Model among lecturers in African Universities. The study employed a qualitative literature review, after…

Effective science education is crucial for developing a scientifically literate citizenry, and for many, foundational primary science education experiences play a significant role in defining their long-term science trajectories. However, primary science education has been limited by a dissonance between the poor science trajectories for…

Guided reading is a teaching practice many teachers utilize to provide differentiated reading instruction to small groups of learners. During guided reading, students read instructional leveled texts with teacher support. This research synthesis examines student-centered outcomes resulting from guided reading instruction over 20 years spanning…

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of student-centered practices in a life science course at the national level. In line with this purpose, searches were conducted in the identified databases. This meta-analysis study employed 39 experimental studies (48 comparison data sets). Upon completing the analysis, it was observed that the…

In this review, we use the metaphor of a "fast fish" to illustrate the importance of contextualized agency, which assumes that learners must (a) be centrally agentive in their own learning; (b) be able to act on and modify the cognitive, physical, social, and emotional contexts of their learning to support their best performance; and (c)…

The adoption of the maker-centered method is gaining popularity in K-12 school curricula. However, a unified consensus on its effectiveness in enhancing K-12 students' learning outcomes remains elusive. Therefore, the purpose of this meta-analysis was to synthesize the findings on the overall effects of the maker-centered learning method on K-12…
