Team project-based learning has become increasingly common in higher education. This study aimed to characterise and understand students' team learning experiences in team project-based learning by considering various aspects, such as individual qualities, teamwork, task, and instructor support. K-means clustering analysis was performed using…

Engineering design thinking is at the core of engineering competence. Project-Based learning (PjBL) about Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), which is based on engineering design, has brought enormous success in students' gaining and applying knowledge about STEM subjects. However, there are few studies on the perceived…

This paper outlines instructional strategies and course projects that demonstrate multiple means of engagement, representation, action, and expression, the essential principles of the Universal Design for Learning (UDL). The authors first share specific practices and examples related to each of the essential principles of UDL. Next, three projects…

Undergraduate dissertation students' cognitive appraisal, coping styles and perceived stress were examined at three time points during their undergraduate dissertation projects (UDP), observing whether cognitive appraisal and coping styles predicted perceived stress and their temporal changes. Sixty-four dissertation students completed the…

In the face of an increasingly severe global climate change situation, carbon neutrality initiatives have been included in the development action plans of many countries around the world. The carbon neutrality vision will also accelerate the revolution in the energy systems of countries around the world, injecting new vitality into the upgrading…

Students' self-regulated learning has become an essential element of student's success in the education sector and therefore, needs the attention of policymakers and scholars alike. Thus, the current study investigates into the role of different learning styles such as just-in-time learning, case-based learning, inquiry learning, project-based…

This research aimed to discover appropriate learning management to suit students' different learning styles within a multicultural society at state-run universities using mixed methods research of explanatory design. A survey was first conducted followed by focus group discussions. It was found that the students consisted of all four types of…

This action research discovers the learning preferences of middle school students enrolled in an advanced steel drum class in central Florida, specifically their attitudes toward the learner-centered approach while composing and learning music. Sixteen participants compare the traditional teacher-led formal instruction to student-led informal…

The purpose of this study was to study the effect of Brain-Based Learning and Project Based Learning strategies on the results of mathematics learning in students of visual learning styles in the Basic Mathematics Introduction course at the Teaching and Education Faculty at Halu Oleo University, Republic of Indonesia.
