This study explores the factors influencing student engagement and behavioral intention towards mobile learning platforms, with a focus on widely used platforms in Indonesia, such as Ruangguru, Zenius, and Quipper. A total of 375 questionnaires were distributed, out of which 363 were deemed valid and used for analysis. The research employed…

Background: Utility-value interventions have been shown to promote students' achievement and motivation in mathematics through encouraging them to identify connections between course content and their real lives. To extend the benefits of these interventions, additional research is necessary to test their efficacy in diverse high school contexts,…

It is becoming increasingly vital for the next generation of students to acquire problem-solving, critical thinking, and collaborative skills for them to be successful in the 21st century.

This study examined how adolescents' expectancies for success in and values held for a sexual health curriculum are related to their…

According to expectancy-value models, two important motivational constructs are task value and self-efficacy expectations. As students work intensively on mathematical problems in the classroom, teachers need the competence to judge whether students value solving the problem and how confident they are that they will succeed. However, not much is…

While there are several scales that measure students' mathematical attitudes, few are focused on measuring students' attitudes towards geometry. Some of the scales present in literature measure different dimensions of students' attitudes towards geometry, such as their enjoyment of the subject, motivation to learn it, and perception of the…

The values of mathematics in STEM education have become an issue that needs to be considered by mathematics educators. To address this issue, this qualitative study explores four Indonesian high school mathematics teachers' values of the relationships between mathematics and integrated STEM education. The phenomenography research approach was…

Flipped learning is a constructivist methodology that uses various active learning strategies, drawing on the potential of digital technologies whenever possible. Several research studies have shown the many benefits that flipped learning can bring to students' learning process and their affective sphere, but studies in the specific area of…

The purpose of this research is to better understand how perceived usefulness (PU) and perceived ease of use (PEU) predict how frequently science teachers use digital learning tools in the physical classroom. The research was based on the widely used Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), originally developed by Davis (1989). The research is…

Voice is a key component of interpersonal meaning that denotes a writer's value judgement or personal feelings. An important aspect of voice in informational writing is epistemic stance, which indicates a writer's judgement of the information presented. This exploratory study examined adolescents' use of hedges and boosters to convey epistemic…

The aim of this study is to explore and identify the factors influencing the intentions of vocational high school teachers in Indonesia to utilize web-based e-learning platforms. Utilizing the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) as the theoretical framework, this research expands to include three additional external variables: motivation to use,…

To present the significant findings of the paper of Alova (2019), this study shows that Value of Mathematics, which is one of the factors of the attitudes toward Mathematics as taken from the Attitudes Toward Mathematics Inventory (ATMI), an instrument developed by Tapia and Marsh (2004), is one salient factor in the students' attitude and…

In a sample of high school students (preliminary study: N = 224; main study: N = 235 and 194 at two time points in the beginning and the end of the school year), we developed and tested a self-report measure of attitudes toward creativity. Exploratory factor analyses identified and replicated one factor of positive attitudes toward…

This paper presents findings of an investigation on students' attitudes towards coding and its relationship with interest in STEM-related careers. A concurrent mixed-method research design involving a pre-intervention-intervention-post-intervention non-equivalent control group was adopted. A sample of 50 grade seven to nine South African students…
