Spaced retrieval practice harnesses two well-studied phenomena: the spacing effect, where spacing out practice over several sessions leads to a gain in retention compared to massed practice in one session; and the testing effect, where material that is tested is better retained than material that is restudied. This meta-analysis investigates if,…

This study investigates the predictive relationship between academic resilience and cognitive flexibility among students in biology lessons enhanced by design thinking. Using an embedded quasi-experimental design, we compared the effects of design thinking-enhanced lessons with conventional engage, explore, explain, elaborate, evaluate (5E)-based…

While biosensing is becoming a popular tool among urban geographers to address the emotional experience of the urban environment, it is also posing significant challenges, as its application demands expertise on technology and human physiology that is not part of regular curricula in geography courses. Despite this, there is little exploration of…

The relationship between focus of attention instructions and motor performance is a topic of significant research interest. It is widely accepted that attending to the mechanics of the movement when performing a motor task (internal focus) yields poorer performance and less effective movement organization than attending to the movement outcome…

This study aims to evaluate the impact of Circumference Board gamification on the achievement of second-form students in the topic of circles at two schools in Putrajaya, Malaysia. The study involved 60 students, with 30 students from each school (15 male and 15 female) selected using random stratified sampling. A quasi-experimental design was…

Research abounds regarding the need for young children's access to authentic play experiences. Yet, while play is considered the main method of learning for young children, mainstream curricula often omit this mode and further perpetuate the artificial divide of play or learning. Guided play is a pedagogical approach in which teachers integrate a…

GeoCamp was a place-based intensive short course in geographic inquiry and field methods for in-service teachers and education professionals held from July 18 to 27, 2022, in Iquitos, Peru, and the Loreto region of the Amazon. The course aimed to incorporate elements of geographic inquiry by exploring how plants, animals, and humans interact in…

Introductory physics is a gateway course that is required for many science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) majors. In introductory physics courses, women and racially minoritized students often have lower grades and higher attrition than white men. Inclusive teaching is widely recommended to ensure that all students have the…

This article examines equity concerns in assessing student participation in the foreign language classroom and proposes alternative approaches for more equitable assessment practices. The article presents several approaches for reimagining participation assessment. These approaches aim to create more equitable assessment of student participation…

A flipped classroom is an instructional method whereby students learn course content prior to attending class through various instructional resources. Class time is focused on problem-solving and active learning activities. Flipping the classroom allows instructors to utilize active learning strategies during class time to improve student…

English Learners benefit from rich opportunities to explore and engage with peers. We describe pattern-seeking and argument-constructing activities that support partners as they co-construct representations of networks, such as social networks connecting people. Such activities allow all students to explore relationships between vertices, edges,…

In the ever-evolving landscape of education, the integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has emerged as a transformative force, reshaping the way we teach and learn across various disciplines. Among these disciplines, physics stands as a particularly fertile ground for harnessing the power of ICT to enhance teaching…

With the popularity of Spanish for Specific Purposes courses growing at U.S. universities, research that can underpin effective teaching practices and material development is greatly needed. This project focuses on task-based language teaching in the context of Medical Spanish courses, drawing from studies carried out for Business Spanish and…
