The problem in this study is that the teachers do not implement various technologies as instructional tools. The purpose of this qualitative exploratory case study was to examine the perceptions of teachers implementing technology in middle school science classes. The overarching research question was, "How do middle school science teachers…

Video magazines can make students' learning experience more effective by adding a different dimension to the learning process. This learning experience can create changes in students' attitudes and behaviors. This study aimed to investigate the impact of video magazines in the experimental group. It printed magazines in the control group on middle…

Empirical studies demonstrate that students have some difficulties with the mathematical modeling process. Studies contain various applications for developing students' modeling competencies. This study investigated video-based modeling tasks' impact on modeling competencies with a descriptive design. In this context, it aims to compare…

E-handout is one form of teaching material that can be used by teachers and students in the learning process. This research aims to develop teaching materials in the form of e-handouts using Heyzine to determine the feasibility and practicality of e-handouts on human respiratory system material in the 8th grade of junior high school. The research…

The purpose of this study was to identify teachers' digital skills proficiency gaps in order to determine preparedness for teaching in the digital age. Using a survey research design helped identify teachers' digital skills self-confidence, attitudes towards the use of technology in the classroom, and current uses of technology for instructional…

Using a Dynamic Geometry System (DGS) students can engage in a dynamic learning process that allows them to experiment, create strategies, make conjectures, argue, and deduce mathematical properties. A DGS enables the introduction of proofs, by providing visual aids. The proof of the conjectures made emerges as the next step towards formalising…

With the single descriptive case study reported on here we aimed to explore incorporating indigenous knowledge (IK) into the teaching of graphic design (GD) as a part of Grade 9 Technology lessons. Incorporating IK into GD could make the topic more meaningful -- especially for indigenous learners. The "Curriculum and Assessment Policy…

Computational thinking (CT) is recognized as an essential and universally applicable skill for all disciplines (Wing, 2006; Bundy, 2007). Proponents of CT acknowledge that it is integral to fostering 21st century skills such as problem-solving and higher-order thinking (Barr & Stephenson, 2011; Wing, 2006). Educational robotics activities have…

Observation serves as a cornerstone of scientific inquiry, particularly in science education. However, microscopy classes, essential for fostering observational skills, often face limited equipment access and technical difficulties. Such challenges can influence students' academic emotions, which play a crucial role in learning. In response to…

The Internet of Things is shifting the way people interact with each other, the way people interact with objects, and the way objects interact with each other. This reality is creating a new paradigm, where the world becomes more interconnected. In the field of Education, we are at the beginning of understanding the profound transformation that…

Background: Adolescent mental health issues are a major public health concern, highlighted by the US Surgeon General as a crisis. Traditional school-based interventions show inconsistent success, creating a demand for effective solutions. Aims: This study evaluates the impact of technology-supported cooperative learning (CL) on adolescent mental…

Technology has the capacity to support learning, promote higher-order thinking, and perpetuate 21st-century skills. However, these skills are often lacking in K-12 public schools, particularly in low-income settings. Low-income students often interact with technology in ways that reinforce low-level thinking, while students in economically…

The aim of this study is to show how the GeoGebra software-supported collaborative learning environment contributes to a group of students using multiple representations and reaching generalisations while solving problems collectively. Blending individual and collaborative learning activities were carried out with a learning method called ACODESA…

In recent years, laptop and 'Bring Your Own Device' (BYOD) programs have become an integral part of teaching and learning in many Australian schools. For history teachers, the presence of BYOD in the classroom potentially provides the opportunity to align two key teaching goals: historical research skills; and information, communication and…

Problem-solving is one of the most important twenty-first-century skills and should be acquired at an early age. Since programming is a kind of problem-solving process, it may be seen in the context of problem-solving skills development. Hence, this study aims to identify the effectiveness of one of the most popular programming tools…
