Nowadays, learning should be directed to develop the 21st-century core competencies, including creative thinking in problem-solving. Therefore, the present study aimed to improve the students' creative thinking and mathematics learning outcome through the implementation of the Treffinger learning model with Realistic Mathematics Education (RME)…

The aim of the research is to build an educational-learning design according to the progressive inquiry model and to know its effectiveness in the mathematical excellence skills of second-grade intermediate students. To achieve the research objectives, the two researchers followed the experimental research method, and they adopted a…

This research aimed to investigate the effect of project-based learning (PjBL), predict-observe-explain (POE), and predict-observe-explain based project (POEP) on metacognitive awareness and cognitive learning outcomes in biology learning. The research used a pretest-posttest nonequivalent control group design. The experiment was conducted from…

The main aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the Remap RT (Reading -- Concept Mapping -- Reciprocal Teaching) learning model on low-ability students' achievement in biology. This quasi-experimental research made use of a pre-test-post-test non-equivalent control group design. The population of this research was 125 tenth-grade…

Chemistry learning in high school should encourage the application of knowledge learned to solve real-world problems around students without delay. This study aimed at analyzing the effect of the project based e-learning model (PjBeL) compared to direct e-learning (DeL) and academic procrastination (AP) on students' critical thinking skills and…

Despite growing interest in the studies on Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), its operation in the forms of individualized and group-wide has been controversial.

This paper reports the findings of a quasi-experiment that aims to investigate the role of metacognitive teaching-learning (MTL) and mathematical prior knowledge (MPK) on students' mathematical logical thinking ability (MLTA) and self-regulated learning (SRL). The subject of the study was 70 tenth-grade students inSumedang, Indonesia. One…

Three college faculty taught large general biology classes using case studies and personal response systems (clickers). Each instructor taught the same eight cases in two different sections, except the questions within the cases differed. In one section the questions were lower order (LO) factual inquiries, and in the other they were largely…

Several studies have reported the benefits of peer reviews in English as a second language (ESL) and English as a foreign language (EFL) writing classrooms. However, there has been little empirical research on whether such peer reviews improve students' writing abilities. The current study investigated the effects of peer review on the development…
