This study reveals the properties of inquiries within textbooks and identifies gaps between the new inquiry-based curriculum and textbooks, with the aim of enhancing textbook quality through the integration of different subjects and mathematical perspectives. With a conceptual framework that includes the degree of integration and level of inquiry,…

Micro-inquiries are a streamlined adaptation of the Inquiry Design Model (IDM) and C3 Framework that break down rich, meaningful content and skill explorations into short lessons that teachers can include in "less" than a single lesson. Recognizing that full IDM implementations can be time-consuming and challenging for elementary…

In computer-assisted language learning (CALL), a variety of studies have explored the use of Virtual Exchange (VE) for shaping learners' cultural competence from the perspective of sociolinguistics. However, few studies have examined learners' psycholinguistic factors in this context. Since based on the dynamic complex system, students'…

This study proposes a project-based learning methodology that emphasises technical research with the active participation of schoolchildren. The study focuses on ecological conservation using ceramic slurry 3D printing technology. It is categorised into two distinctive technical and educational aspects. The technical aspect deals with reverse…

The complex processes of electrolyte transport across the nephron often pose learning challenges for medical students. Manipulatives are a means of providing an interactive learning experience that increases understanding and content retention. In this study, we updated our previous in-person, paper-based nephron manipulative into a digital,…

In the rapidly evolving landscape of the 21st century, modern education faces the imperative to adapt, embracing the cultivation of interdisciplinary and intercultural competencies to prepare students for future challenges. This study investigates the integration of sustainable transport education through thoughtfully designed teaching…

One outcome of the increasing interest from philosophy of education circles in the work of Giorgio Agamben has been the possibility of apparently small alterations to enact a radical emancipatory change. This 'weak utopianism' (Lewis, 2013) found in Agamben's work means that traditionally radical changes are viewed with skepticism, as grand…

One of the reflections of technology to education is the flipped classroom model. In The Flipped Classroom model, the lecture process on a subject is delivered at home, while the application process that is related to the subject is in the class. The purpose of this study is to examine the trends in recent years via bibliometric results of…

In this paper, we describe a course project in which teams of undergraduate students propose and execute an end-to-end analytics project to solve a real-world problem. The project challenges students to implement machine learning, optimization, simulation, or a combination of these three techniques on real-world data that they collect. A…

Contribution: Impact assessment of the practice-oriented course for high school students on their later academic achievements, described in the context of long-term efforts to improve electronic engineering studies' quality. The article highlights the importance of outreach and extracurricular activities and cooperation with the IEEE in these…

Active learning strategies engage students and promote student-centered learning environments. Implementing active learning in a HyFlex environment during the Fall of 2020 global pandemic was challenging. We describe the "Interactive Synchronous HyFlex" approach to teaching design thinking at the introductory college level and explore…

Worked examples can help novice learners develop early schemata from an expert's solution to a problem. Nonetheless, the worked examples themselves are no guarantee that students will explore these experts' solutions effectively. This study explores two different approaches to supporting engineering technology students' learning in an…

This study aimed to investigate the effects of gamification on active and reflective learners' engagement and cognitive load. It also compared both groups' experiences in a 10-week gamification process. It employed triangulation, one of the mixed research designs in this study. Participants consisted of 70 undergraduate students (45 active, 25…

As a learner-centered pedagogy, project-based learning (PBL) is recognized to improve students' engagement and long-term learning effectiveness. The present PBL practices are based on instructor-defined topics and are assigned as a partial or full substitution of traditional assessments. Here, open-topic PBL as an opt-in activity is proposed and…

This study explores how peer learning and teaching interactions in undergraduate STEM courses occurred through the "Peer-Learning Assistant" (PLA) model. This is one of the active learning strategies applied in a curricular setting, and also to find out the learning experiences for STEM students and PLAs from the PLA model. For this…
