Inclusive education has been promoted in recent years; however, its inadequacies and the difficulty of its practical application have been pointed out. Hence, this study presents a scheme of learning according to the conditions of a person's disability and proposes a hypothetical teaching method that accommodates various degrees of disability. The…

This article reports on original research investigating the pivotal role that teachers play in student engagement, using a tri-dimensional framework. This framework identifies how teachers' pedagogical choices impact student engagement in ways that influence students' external behaviours, internal emotions and internal cognitions. A questionnaire…

The literature on play and learning attests many developmental benefits for children. The Australian curriculum endorses play-based learning (PBL) as an age-appropriate teaching pedagogy. However, what enables or prevents PBL in the classroom is not well documented. The present study examined the responses of 334 teachers currently employed in…

This theoretical article examines the crucial role of play-based learning (PBL) in enhancing the mathematical skills of children in the Early Childhood Phase, referred to as Foundation Phase (Grade R-3) learners, within a South African context. The article argues that the traditional approach to teaching early childhood mathematics, where teachers…

This study aimed to determine and describe the influence of psycholinguistics and metacognition on the ability of physics education students to use verbal language in the learning process.

Recent studies have indicated that digital platforms cannot amalgamate learning solutions for students with learning disabilities. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive overview of the literature on the topic and methods to elaborate on earlier studies on learning disabilities. These findings can help new researchers develop effective…

This qualitative case study aims to address the ways that pre-service mathematics teachers (PSTs) used a rope in a daylong research meeting for cognitive development of children's understanding of counting numbers in Tanzanian elementary schools. Three university mathematics pre-service teachers volunteered participating in this study. Collective…

Studies indicate that integrating digital tools into reading instruction significantly enhances student learning. The OK4R (Overview, Key Idea, Read, Recall, Reflect, Review) method goes beyond teaching reading techniques by fostering a cyclic process of reading and critical reflection. Through OK4R, learners develop both reading strategies and…

The notion of scientific visual literacy has been advocated in recent science curriculum reform documents and related learning outcomes are expected from students. However, few studies have been conducted to determine how it is tested in high-stakes examinations. This study utilized the Visualization Blooming Tool to examine the level of visual…

Heavy content, high volume courses commonly create challenges for undergraduate students. Two such courses at our university are the introductory semesters of anatomy and physiology for first-year nursing students, taught by biology instructors. Despite the vast literature indicating the efficacy of using concept maps as a tool for learning, it is…
