Chih-Ming Chen; Ming-Yan Huang – International Journal of STEM Education, 2024
Background: Computational thinking (CT) is crucial to fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Many elementary schools have been cultivating students' CT through block-based programming languages such as Scratch using traditional teacher-centered teaching methods. However, the approach excessively relies on teacher lectures, so the…

William Smolander; Raine Aiava – Journal of Social Science Education, 2025
Purpose: Our research unpacks transformative learning through learning-with the city and the agency of encounters. We exemplify how post-human education methodologies can make students sensitive to rhythms beyond their own, helping them to get to know Earth as more than a backdrop for human activity. Approach: Walking the historical shoreline of…

Chang, Ching-Yi; Sung, Han-Yu; Guo, Jong-Long; Chang, Bieng-Yi; Kuo, Fan-Ray – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
The childbirth education training course aims to help nurses establish the basic ability to care for pregnant women. However, in traditional teaching, it is often difficult for learners to distinguish the meaning of different childbirth signs. While virtual reality (VR) may be connected in most people's minds with videos designed for immersive…

Steele, Patricia; Johnston, Elizabeth; Lawlor, Andrew; Smith, Cassandra; Lamppa, Sonja – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 2019
In the 21st century, easy access to visually rich, immersive, student-centered, virtual applications could augment or replace text-based learning. However, the new developments are offset by the lack of insight into pedagogies needed to guide educators through a visual learning environment. The purpose of this directed content analysis was to…

Vanderveen, Jesse R.; Jessop, Philip G. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Selecting less hazardous chemicals is a core tenet of green chemistry but is difficult to teach in practice. The upper-year undergraduate or graduate level exercise described here empowers students to make such decisions themselves. Students are tasked with finding the greenest chemical for a specific purpose described in a hypothetical scenario,…
