Supplemental instruction, also known as Peer Assisted Study Sessions (SI-PASS), is a well-established form of peer learning that has been implemented in higher education institutions across the globe and that coincides with learning gains for participants. While the effects on learning gains have been extensively studied with quasi-experiments,…

A promising approach to support students' math learning effectively, automatically and at scale within existing learning environments is conversational artificial intelligence (ConvAI). Although previous studies have suggested ConvAI's potential to guide, facilitate and enhance learning, its effects on students' conceptual change and academic…

Background: Situated simulation is a pedagogical method used for on-the-job training in many occupations. Establishing a framework that uses mobile devices to provide both simulation elements and incorporates instant feedback as reasoning scaffolding is a promising and relatively unexplored research topic. Objective: In this study, we designed a…

Social competence refers to having the behaviors, social skills, and intellectual capabilities needed to thrive in society. This includes the capacity to create, nurture, and maintain social relationships in various areas of life.

Twenty-first century youth are hungry for new ways to learn. Their world is global, mobile, and rich with opportunities previous generations couldn't possibly have imagined. As they make clear in this book, the old standards of schooling no longer apply. In "Kids on Earth," Howard Blumenthal and Robert C. Pianta go straight to the…

'Learning the lessons' looks at the history of learning and skills policy, going back to the late 19th century. It is the third report produced as part of our Ambition Skills programme of work, supported by City & Guilds and NOCN, which considers the economic and social case for a higher ambition for learning and skills, and how we can achieve…

To help young students succeed in problem-based learning (PBL), researchers suggested investigating students' need for cognition (NFC), one's inclination to exert mental effort during learning. How one puts mental effort into a learning task is related to motivation. If motivated, students are more likely to engage in challenging tasks, put in…

Our study examined the language learning strategies of successful and less successful Iranian EFL learners. The sample comprised 1608 junior and senior EFL students who completed the "Strategy Inventory for Language Learning" (SILL), and 30 randomly selected participants in semi-structured interviews. The results from descriptive…

Research on epistemic emotions has often focused on how students transition between affective states (e.g., affect dynamics). More recently, studies have examined the properties of cases where a student remains in the same affective state over time, finding that the duration of a student's affective state is important for multiple learning…
