This study explores the impact of a hackathon as a pedagogical tool to promote twenty-first-century skills among fifth-grade students in a rural elementary school in northern Israel. The research question focuses on the extent to which a hackathon can develop these skills from the students' own perspective. Utilizing a case-study approach, the…

This scoping review examines the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools into scientific education practices in school settings. Following the PRISMA statement guidelines, a literature search was conducted in the Web of Science and Scopus databases, identifying 2892 articles published between 2020 and 2024. After applying the eligibility…

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) can create sophisticated textual and multimodal content readily available to students. Writing intensive courses and disciplines that use writing as a major form of assessment are significantly impacted by advancements in generative AI, as the technology has the potential to revolutionize how students write…

Pew Research Center conducted this study to understand how parents of kids ages 12 and younger approach their children's technology use and screen time. For this analysis, 3,054 parents who have children ages 12 and under were surveyed from May 13 to 26, 2025. The sample for this survey includes respondents from two different sources--Pew Research…

Broadcasting live on the Internet, the Conference had 424 onsite participants with 299,816 online viewers from different countries and regions. The Conference hosted five keynote speeches, two expert…

Learning metabolic pathways is vital for understanding biochemical processes and all of their implications for life. Their learning in the virtual environment is complex and generative learning strategies, such as the construction of online conceptual maps, can help in this process. This article presents a proposal for the collaborative…

This qualitative research inquiry explores how school leaders shape their identities while navigating incessant and seemingly endless school transformations. The central questions addressed are the following: how do school leaders make sense of their identities in rapid periods of reform? And how do they view themselves in new educational…

Summer 2020 witnessed a large-scale temporary release of content from the publishing community to support UK universities as they moved to online-only delivery, followed by a scramble by those institutions to maintain access to resources. This paper reflects on the experiences of De Montfort University and Imperial College libraries during this…

This paper examines the unbundling of research in the context of the Teachers' Research Exchange (T-REX) platform, the national flagship Internet platform in Ireland for teachers to access, use and engage in research. This paper draws on two theoretical frameworks: Laurillard's conversational framework and Salmon's five-stage model. The first…

Traditional paper science notebooks have served the purpose of engaging learners in the scientific practices, however, as with many things, paper is being replaced by digital. This study examined the digital notebook entries of students to consider the affordances and limitations of digital science notebooks versus traditional paper science…

One of several scientific disciplines' significant objectives is to determine the integration of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in the academic setting. This research studies the use of ICTs, especially the Internet, by university students in Hispanic countries. The methodology used is descriptive and quantitative, based on data…

In this study the prevalence of internet addiction was ascertained among students of a university in Nigeria, using a survey design method. A sample of 1448 students was selected through a proportionate sampling technique. Data were collected using Young's (1998) Internet Addiction Test. Fourteen percent of the students exhibited severe levels of…

Embodiment is particularly relevant for learning anatomy as the knowledge to be acquired is related to the body itself. Several tools using three-dimensional (3D) anatomical structures and avatars (e.g. augmented reality; virtual reality; immersive anatomy; 3D animations) were developed to enrich students' experience by including gestures and body…

Contribution: Practical active learning stations (PALSs)-equipped classrooms function similar to prototypical active learning classrooms (ALCs). They support student collaboration and active learning pedagogies but at a fraction of the cost. Background: Active learning pedagogies and active learning technology are revitalizing STEM education and…

How do different components of a learning environment contribute to learning in science? The study examines the contribution of laboratory experiments and computer model explorations to the learning of chemistry through a complex-systems approach. Specifically, junior high-school students' learning of chemistry via four different methods were…
