Yuqin Yang; Yewen Chen; Xueqi Feng; Daner Sun; Shiyan Pang – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2024
Helping students gradually develop collective knowledge is critical but generally faces great challenges. Employing a quasi-experimental design, this study investigated the impacts and mechanisms of analytics-supported reflective assessment on the collective knowledge advancement of undergraduates. The experimental group (n = 55) engaged in…

Shannon Ann Basas Perry – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Within the broad, interdisciplinary field of adult education, affective aspects of experience and the roles they play in learning have, thus far, not been properly theorized or researched. This dissertation first explores how John Heron's whole person theory (WPT) conceptualizes feeling as an expansive affective capacity at the root of all human…

I Made Suarsana; Al Jupri; Didi Suryadi; Elah Nurlaelah; I Gusti Nyoman Yudi Hartawan – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2025
Mathematical and computational thinking (CT) are closely interrelated, yet CT integration into mathematics instruction remains limited. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the teaching process for straight-line equations in enhancing students' CT skills and to propose improvements based on the findings. A qualitative case study…

Understanding and Learning of Ionic Organic Reactions in Organic Chemistry Based on Acid-Base Theory
Chuan-Jun Yue; Li-Ping Gu – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Organic chemistry is the study of organic compounds containing hydrocarbons and their derivatives. It is similar to inorganic chemistry in terms of the cognitive model. However, the vast number of organic compounds has added to the difficulty in learning organic chemistry with compressed class hours in engineering majors. The integration of the…

Shaista Irshad Khan; Shawana Fazal; Farrukh Nazir – SAGE Open, 2025
This qualitative study investigated the perceptions of prospective teachers on critical thinking (CT) skills before and after completing the Functional English (FE) course at the Bachelor of Education Honors (B.Ed. Hons) and Associate Degree in Education (ADE). A purposive sampling technique was employed to select 40 participants, with eight…

Wulandari, Dynna Sri; Prayitno, Baskoro Adi; Marid, M. – Journal of Biological Education Indonesia (Jurnal Pendidikan Biologi Indonesia), 2022
The limitations of inquiry-based teaching modules impact the low critical thinking skills of students. The research objective is to develop an inquiry-based module to improve students' critical thinking skills. This development research uses the Borg and Gall model in designing and testing the module. The development was carried out in…

Prayogi, Saiful; Yuanita, Leny; Wasis – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2018
Teaching critical thinking (CT) to prospective teachers has been a concern for a long time, and prospective teacher training becomes an appropriate period for interventions that promote CT ability. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a model of learning that accommodates aspects of prior knowledge, motivation, and CT. This study aims to develop…

Severinsen, Christina; Mika, Jason; Hutson, Rochelle – New Zealand Journal of Educational Studies, 2020
This is a reflective account of an inquiry learning process that took place as a small country school corrected its name from Tiritea to Turitea. We discuss the process as an example of how boards in mainstream schools can work collaboratively to uphold te ao Maori (the Maori world) in schools and to recognise obligations under the Te Tiriti o…

Michael Foster – ProQuest LLC, 2023
"Vicarious learning" research is a burgeoning area of inquiry, which examines the learning of students who observe and are engaged with video- or audio-taped presentations of other people engaged in learning (Chi et al., 2008). In such studies, the students or "vicarious learners" (VLs) are positioned as indirect participants…

Radmehr, Farzad – Journal on Mathematics Education, 2023
Task design is an important element of effective mathematics teaching and learning. Past research in mathematics education has investigated task design in mathematics education from different perspectives (e.g., cognitive and cultural) and offered a number of (theoretical) frameworks and sets of principles. In this study, through a narrative…

Orozco, Mariana; Boon, Mieke; Susarrey Arce, Arturo – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
This paper reports on the design of an innovative Electrochemistry course, part of a Chemical Science Engineering programme. Teachers have observed that their students' understanding of electrochemical concepts and phenomena is insufficient to attempt connections to further concepts, and to generate new knowledge in scientific problem-solving. A…

Cardace, Amy; Wilson, Mark; Metz, Kathleen E. – Education Sciences, 2021
This paper gives an example of how to address the challenge of designing a learning progression that describes student thinking, with the necessary specificity to align instructional opportunities and assessment tools. We describe the Conceptual Underpinnings of Evolution project and the iterative process of developing a novel learning progression…

Hodgson, Louise M.; Wilkie, Karina J. – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2022
The literature highlights differing views on the efficacy of modelling lessons for teacher professional learning. In this study we draw on dissonance theory to discuss lesson modelling that seeks to transcend 'do as I do' imitation and provoke teachers' attention to intended teaching practices: a necessary pre-cursor for changes to practice. A…

Johnson, Brian T.; Tawfik, Andrew A. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2022
This study sought to understand challenges that teachers (N = 15) in poverty settings encountered during information literacy instruction (ILI) and inquiry-based learning. First order barriers focused on insufficient support for instruction (training to align ILI in poverty settings; integrate diverse information resources/technology tools),…
