Educational robots have unrivaled advantages and value in developing students' computational thinking. Currently, there are fewer studies on the overall effects of educational robots on K12 students' computational thinking, especially at the instructional style and cross-grade level. In order to investigate the overall effect of educational robots…

The goal of the study presented in the paper is to assess the knowledge about Alzheimer's Disease (AD), among library and information science students in Croatia. Understanding how much future librarians know about dementia is the first step towards providing them with relevant educational intervention which will equip them with required knowledge…

Based on the expectancy-value perspective on identity and identity formation, this paper explores the relationship between math identity (MI) and the dimensions of motivation (i.e. intrinsic value, attainment value, utility value and perceived competence) and math achievement in primary school. An additional aim of our research was to explore…

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted mental well-being, leading to increased stress, anxiety, and social isolation, particularly affecting students' self-confidence and academic performance. This study aims to establish the relationship between anxiety levels and student satisfaction with distance learning in taxation during the…

The Black student population underperforms all other demographic groups in high school science achievement. The purpose of this quantitative correlational research was to examine various factors influencing the science proficiency of Black students in selected Florida high schools. Florida's PK--20 Education Information Portal provided the…

Invasive alien species (IAS) are one of the main drivers of global biodiversity loss. The present study aims at performing a diagnostic analysis of the perceptions of Primary and Secondary school students about causes, consequences and solutions of the presence of IAS in the environment. The influence of educational level, knowledge of the meaning…

There is a growing body of literature which highlights the relationship between classroom talk and learning. However, despite the growing acceptance of the link between talk and student learning, talk remains an undervalued pedagogical practice by many teachers. This is particularly evident in secondary school classrooms. This paper presents the…

Theories of reading comprehension have widely predicted a role for syntactic skills, or the ability to understand and manipulate the structure of a sentence. Yet, these theories are based primarily on English, leaving open the question of whether this remains true across typologically different languages such as English versus Chinese. There are…

There is currently widespread interest in how to promote self-regulated learning (SRL) among young learners to prepare the stage for success in later years. Yet, there is little research that explores primary school students' perspectives and strategies which are known to directly influence their SRL engagement. We conducted semi-structured…

The study aims to investigate the effects of immersive reality applications on students' science achievement. For this purpose, 1,323 articles reporting the effects of immersive reality applications on students' science achievement were examined. The following databases were searched for articles: National Thesis Center, Google scholar, Scopus,…

This systematic quantitative literature review was conducted to analyse and synthesise the extant corpus of knowledge on dialogic pedagogy within school settings, and thus identify theoretical and methodological gaps in the literature, which might suggest new avenues for research. A search of eight databases (2014-2020) revealed an initial pool of…

Background: In the immediate aftermath of school closures related to COVID-19, efforts to unpack the impact of the pandemic on student outcomes surged. As schools have returned to fully in-person learning, that focus has shifted towards the implementation and evaluation of interventions to remediate or accelerate impacted learning. However,…

Several empirical studies reveal that students are poorly informed, and often hold stereotyped views of science and scientists. The present study aimed to investigate the Portuguese elementary school students' images of scientists and their work and the influence of gender and grade level on the development of these images. Two hundred and…

While research suggests that social emotional competencies (SECs) influence students' disciplinary outcomes, less is known of their potential to explain racial disparities or grade level differences in those outcomes. This study used survey and administrative data from 30,494 students in grades 3-12 to examine the degree to which SECs were related…

One of the factors that influences how students learn mathematics is their mathematics-related beliefs. Mathematics-related beliefs are important, but in Indonesia, there has been little research on mathematics beliefs in elementary schools and in relation to grade level and gender. This study aims to determine the general profile of elementary…
