This article shares activities that engage students in quality peer dialogue to build up and break down networks, revealing underlying structure and equivalence. These investigations offer students three kinds of mathematical arguments: (1) proofs of impossibility; (2) proofs by induction; and (3) proofs by exhaustion. The authors describe a…

Background/purpose: The education sector is currently encountering challenges and evolving concepts in the Society 5.0 era, which seeks to harmonize society and technology to build a more advanced and sustainable world. This study analyzes the influence of Supportive Leadership, Social Network Capability, and Openness to Experience on Adaptive…

Over the past few decades, there has been a growing emphasis on the appropriateness of group-based activities in student learning. Therefore, this study aimed to provide practical evidence or activities for reducing social loafing with the performance implications of teamwork in students. The planning, intervening, assessing, and reflecting steps…

A key challenge in CSCL research is to find ways to support learners in becoming effective collaborators. While the effectiveness of external collaboration scripts is well established, there is a need for research into support that acknowledges learners' autonomy during collaboration. In the present study, we compare an external collaboration…

The response card review game is a non-threatening, collaborative, and attention-grabbing review game that encourages the participation of all students. Moreover, this review serves as a monitoring tool that allows instructors to gauge which contents students have mastered and which require re-teaching. Through repeated and fast-paced review…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly being used in education, but mostly to support individual teaching and learning. However, there are good reasons to think that thinking together and solving problems together, Collective Intelligence (CI), is also a valuable outcome of education. Accordingly, our main research question is: How can AI be…

This study investigates the transformative potential of a professional development program launched in 2022 to meet the evolving needs of digital teaching competencies within K-12 and higher education sectors. Using the Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) and Change Laboratory (CL) framework, the research examines how a MOOC platform…

An ethical dilemma occurs when a situation may be resolved in various ethical and unethical ways. School psychologists have previously reported experiencing ethical dilemmas in practice, particularly around administrative pressures, unsound educational practices, assessment, and confidentiality. The current study queried school psychologists'…

Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) appears to be one of the potential responses to the world's educational needs. It emerged as an initiative to promote digital, collaborative internationalization, and its implementation and interest among teacher communities have steadily increased. This research analyzed COIL experiences,…

In today's global and hyperconnected world, the job market, the higher education environment, and society are becoming increasingly international and complex in orientation. New challenges and opportunities are constantly flowing in a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous environment. There is a need for people to navigate through cultural…

Research on generalization in elementary school is a key topic in mathematics education. This study analyzes the generalization processes among fourth-grade students (9-10 years old) while working with functional relationships, focusing on the interplay between generalizations, justifications, and mediations during a lesson. Specifically, we…

Due to the positive effects on students' performance and social skills, student-centered instructional strategies such as cooperative learning are increasingly used in higher education. Although cooperative learning has been studied extensively, often these studies cannot be applied to the context of higher education physics due to differences in…

Students employing problem-based learning (PBL) face complex problems admitting multiple solutions. Knowledge maps are an effective tool to support students in PBL to represent, analyze, and guide their knowledge structure. Previous studies have examined the use of knowledge mapping techniques in both individual and collaborative learning process.…

Optimizing collaborative behavior is crucial in educational activities, directly improving academic performance, social skills, and social-emotional learning for both teachers and students. In an effort to decipher the mechanisms underlying the effectiveness of collaborative learning, educators and neuroscientists have initiated the collection and…

Team cohesion is critical in driving successful outcomes for teams in collaborative learning settings. It shapes team behaviour, fostering shared perceptions, group synchrony and a common goal-oriented approach. This affinity becomes evident in dynamic interactions, offering insights into team behaviour through interaction data analysis.…
