This quantitative, quasi-experimental study aimed to propose research-based AI constructivist learning activities by measuring students' self-perceptions of their critical thinking using the Motivational Strategies and Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ). The study utilized the input-experience-output framework to evaluate how these learning pursuits…

The study's purpose is to reveal the implementer's opinions toward the use of the Station Rotation Model (SRM) of blended learning, in terms of features, challenges and effectiveness of the model including further implementation and suggestions for the station rotation model. A mixed research approach was conducted using qualitative data analysed…

Contribution: This study focuses on microcontroller circuits and aims to: 1) investigate the impact of formal reasoning on students' post-knowledge using catastrophe theory; 2) compare the different combination sequences of tangible user interface (TUI) and graphical user interface (GUI); and 3) assess the usability of both interfaces and explore…

Active learning promises improved educational outcomes yet depends on students' sustained motivation to engage in practice. Goal setting can enhance learner engagement. However, past evidence of the effectiveness of setting goals tends to be limited to non-digital learning settings and does not scale well as it requires active teacher or parent…

Background/Purpose: Traditional higher education models face disruption as AI democratizes knowledge access, yet current open education implementations predominantly replicate conventional approaches digitally, resulting in poor completion rates. This study proposes a reconceptualized learning framework leveraging AI capabilities while addressing…

This article explores innovative pedagogical approaches in a Canadian critical disability studies program, showcasing liberatory pedagogy through praxis. It emphasizes integrating community engagement with academic theory, exemplified by diverse assignments empowering students as social change agents. Assignments include collaboratively developed…

Teachers play a vital role in promoting societal change and guiding students toward a sustainable future. This research aims to develop and validate a scale, namely 'Teaching Styles for Sustainability Education (TSSE)' to assess teaching styles in sustainability education in Pakistan. The scale was developed and tested with students from nine…

The designs of many student-facing learning analytics (SFLA) dashboards are insufficiently informed by educational research and lack rigorous evaluation in authentic learning contexts, including during remote laboratory practical work. In this article, we present and evaluate an SFLA dashboard designed using the principles of formative assessment…

This study considered the songs currently in use in Gaelic groups for 0-3 year olds in Scotland, whilst investigating how practitioners use them in the groups. In this article, I argue that Gaelic Early Years practitioners insufficiently understand the potential of song in relation to Gaelic language acquisition with young children and their…

In recent years, art museums have been putting more effort into creating e-learning resources (ELR) to encourage young children to learn about art off-site. However, research on art museum ELR from the perspective of educational content is scarce. Using the ELR offered to children by Queensland Art Gallery/ Gallery of Modern Art, Australia (QAGOMA…

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a shift towards online and blended learning; however, most students and faculty members still report more challenges in online courses regarding social interaction and engagement. This paper aimed to design an interactive blended course following Merrills' first principles of instruction model to develop students'…

Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) has received increasing attention for its role in promoting learners' cognitive and social development in STEM education. However, little is known about how learners interact dynamically within a group at different time granularities. This gap mainly resulted from overlooking the time dimension of interactions,…

This mixed-methods observational pilot study compared clinician-supervisor and student satisfaction (surveys and semi-structured interviews), and final placement scores for two different physiotherapy clinical placement models: hybrid (half-onsite, half-remote) and traditional (onsite). All supervisors and students involved were invited to…
