Entropy and the second law of thermodynamics have long been identified as difficult concepts to teach in the physical chemistry curriculum. Their highly abstract nature, mathematical complexity and emergent nature underscore the necessity to better link classical thermodynamics and statistical thermodynamics. The objectives of this systematic…

Process oriented guided inquiry learning (POGIL), is a group-learning method that contributes to the active participation of learners in learning/teaching environments. However, a standard process for using the POGIL in classes is not available. In addition, no systematic reviews using bibliometric analysis in the literature examine the studies…

This systematic literature review provides an overview of existing empirical research on embodied teaching and learning in higher education. The review is based on a literature search in eleven databases resulting in 247 articles being included. These articles span a wide range of disciplines in higher education, with 66 articles situated in…

GPT-3 is a neuronal language model that performs tasks such as classification, question-answering and text summarization. Although chatbots like BlenderBot-3 work well in a conversational sense, and GPT-3 can assist experts in evaluating questions, they are quantifiably worse than real teachers in several pedagogical dimensions. We present the…

Purpose: The aim of this article is to present a systematic review of empirical research developed in the field of citizenship education in teacher education. Design/methodology/approach: This study performs a systematic review, descriptive and critical in nature, of 62 studies present in the Web of Sciences and Scopus after a comprehensive…

Purpose: Critical thinking (CT) in higher education institutions (HEIs) is rarely examined using bibliometric methods to provide a better reference path for future research. This study aims to provide a broad survey of the bibliometric literature on CT in HEIs. Design/methodology/approach: Compiled from the Scopus database, there were 670 articles…

The present study is undertaken to investigate research towards thinking skills and creativity in the field of education by utilizing the bibliometric mapping method. The metadata of a total of 326 studies completed between the years 1975-2021 retrieved from the Web of Science (WoS) database constitute the scope of the study. In this context, the…

Introduction: Although death is a reality inherent to human life, it continues to be a taboo phenomenon that generates unease in some contexts such as education. Its limited curricular approach and the personal implications of its treatment in the classroom constitute some difficulties for greater inclusion in the different stages. Method: The aim…

TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) is an entirely new teaching model in the science of education field, founded about five years ago. There is still some room for improvement and discussion to develop this model. Some studies argue that the model is irrelevant to practical context due to its vague definitions. On the other hand,…

Educational Robotics (ER) and Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) have entered schools and are parts of formal and informal education. Consequently, a wide range of relevant activities and interventions, from kindergarten to high school, are carried out emphasizing their potential benefits, in relation to traditional curriculum,…

This paper presents the results of a systematic scoping literature review of higher education mathematics and statistics support (MSS) evaluation focusing on its impact on students. MSS is defined as any additional organised mathematical and/or statistical aid offered to higher education students outside of their regular programme of teaching by…

Research skills are skills that accommodate technological developments in the 21st century and the competencies that students need to be successful in academic and future careers. The main aim of this review is to explore the implementation and challenges in research skills training for undergraduate students. A systematic literature review…

Purpose: This systematic literature review provides an overview of the entrepreneurship education research, by outlining the recent trends of research on entrepreneurship education. This research study has two primary goals. First one is the identification and categorization of the entrepreneurship education in scientific research by providing…
