This study aimed to propose a Professional Development Model (PDM) for chemistry teachers to enhance their professional development in Artificial Intelligence (AI). The research group consisted of 17 chemistry teachers. The study was designed using a particular case study suitable for qualitative research methods. Document review, teacher…

The popularity and use of online learning are continuing to grow. Faculty members must be available to teach online courses for institutions to offer online education. However, some instructors do not consider online learning a viable substitute for face-to-face instruction. This qualitative interpretive phenomenological study was conducted to…

The present study, carried out in the context of a Teacher Professional Development (TPD) Program on mathematical modelling and digital technologies, focuses on how Italian mathematics teachers refer to digital technologies in designing their lessons and investigates to what extent the TPD program impacted the way by which teachers design their…

The study examined Nigeria Science and Mathematics Teachers' intention towards adopting the CL4STEM technology-based instructional (OER) modules to enhance higher-order thinking with Inclusion and Equity (HOTIE). The study adopted a descriptive correlational design. The population of the study was all mathematics and science teachers in some…

Recent progress in artificial intelligence (AI) has aroused interest in the growth and development of educational AI tools (EAITs). Teachers' adoption of EAITs in classrooms has helped in shaping instructional decisions taken by them in an attempt to promote intelligently and actively students' meaningful learning of contents areas. Nevertheless,…

As artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly being adopted and used in society, it is imperative that teachers feel supported to integrate AI and computer science (CS) into their coursework. To help support teachers to integrate CS and AI into their instruction, we designed and developed an innovative AI curriculum, Shark AI, for in-service science…

The 2013 Curriculum emphasizes the importance of incorporating ICT to improve learning effectiveness. One framework that is useful in this context is TPACK, which stands for Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge. This research aims to examine the ability of geography teachers to utilize TPACK and to support teachers in implementing…

In secondary technology education, models of artifacts, systems and processes, visualized and simulated through digital tools (digital models) are a relatively new element. Technology teachers teach digital models to meet syllabus criteria of digital competence, applicable to for instance problem solving and documentation using digital tools.…

Decades of research have shown that technological change in schools depends on multiple interrelated factors. Structural equation models explaining the interplay of factors often suffer from high complexity and low coherence. To reduce complexity, a more robust structural equation model was built with data from a survey of 349 Swiss primary school…

This study examined how cultural values and teacher beliefs influence Chinese and Spanish university teachers' acceptance of ICTs by combining Hofstede's cultural values theory with technology acceptance theories. Four hundred and twenty-five university teachers from China and 385 teachers from Spain participated in the study. The proposed…

The aim of this article is to examine research on inquiry-based chemistry education in primary and secondary schools to discuss how it is addressed in the research literature. A systematic review was conducted, including 102 articles published between 2000 and 2020. Through inductive analyses, the articles were categorised into four groups: (1)…

Much has been written about Adaptive Learning, but does its implementation alone guarantee success? We have found that integrating an Adaptive Learning Strategy with diverse didactic techniques gives better results. The objectives of this exploratory study were to know the impact of the Adaptive Learning Strategy on students' learning and…

This paper qualitative examines a holistic framework for teaching in the digital era. The examination is based on teachers' perspectives of their career, that is, what core features can be said to characterise teacher's practice, across contexts, cultures and subjects. Semi-structured interviews of expert teachers, specifically from Australia,…

Several universities are accelerating their tempo to navigate the rapidly changing environment towards the digital age. Previous literature has been interested in exploring the continuous trend of digital transformation, along with digital maturity models. However, there is still inconsiderable guidance for practitioners regarding the concrete…

In the past decade, emphasis on promoting "climate literacy" in K-16 science classrooms has increased. Teachers play a critical role in cultivating these opportunities, especially in secondary science classrooms. However, most prior climate education research has focused on students and student learning; little is known about how…
