Speakers of many languages prefer allocentric frames of reference (FoRs) when talking about small-scale space, using words like "east" or "downhill." Ethnographic work has suggested that this preference is also reflected in how such speakers gesture. Here, we investigate this possibility with a field experiment in Juchitán,…

In higher education, business students with different learning styles may not all respond successfully to a straight lecture format. The authors analyze the impact that an experiential learning activity (an optional stock market trading simulation) has demonstrated on student success in a college investments course. Findings suggest that students…

Although the general purpose in this research is to use the artificial neural network model in mathematics education, the main purpose is to show the relationship between students' tendency towards the types of mathematical proof and the learning styles they have by using the artificial neural network model. In addition, SOM-Ward clustering…

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the relationship between patience, emotion regulation difficulty, and cognitive flexibility among university students, and to determine the predictability of patience in cognitive flexibility and emotion regulation difficulty. The study group of the study consisted of 342 (65.5%) females, 180 (34.5%)…

Students are more likely to obtain correct solutions in solving derivative problems. Even though students can complete it correctly, they may not necessarily be able to explain the solution well. Cognition and communication by the students will greatly affect the subsequent learning process. The aim of this study is to describe students'…

This study investigated the effects of the application of instructor-made videos (IMVs) on a population of first-year master's in audiology students. The investigation sampled 10 students and investigated both their perception of IMVs as a tool and the empirical effects of the tool. This study examined how IMVs can be applied specifically in…

The present study aimed to develop an indigenous measure of learning styles for e-learners in Pakistan and to establish its psychometric properties. The objectives of the study were attained via three studies. First, the items for the development of the Learning Style Scale for e-Learners (e-LSS) were generated empirically based on a 5-point…

The literature acknowledges that deeper comprehension of content can be realised when students actively create their own learning materials. However, studies measuring the impact of students co-creating content on their academic performance are limited. Furthermore, there is a significant lacuna in our knowledge about the impact of learning styles…

This research was aimed to test the effectiveness of cmaterials in improving the learning of the students. The development method used in this research is the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development or Production, Implementation or Delivery, and Evaluation) model. The subjects in this developmental research are the lecturers of the educational…

In general, private supplementary tutoring is considered an effective means of improving academic achievement by parents. However, previous studies have produced partial or inconclusive results regarding its effectiveness. Thus, the present study conducted a comprehensive analysis based on a specially designed longitudinal survey of private…

Despite a lack of empirical evidence, learning styles theory (LST) enjoys widespread support in education, leading many researchers to refer to it as a "myth." Although previous research has demonstrated LST's popularity, the impact of exposure to LST on teachers is not yet known. Here original survey data of K-12 teachers (n = 240) was…

Mathematics is a core subject in South Africa. Studies have shown that the performance of learners on this subject is not encouraging. Many factors have been alluded to by scholars as contributing factors to this poor performance. The gap between theory and practice of mathematics teaching can be bridged by the use of appropriate learning styles,…

Learning spaces in higher education are changing in crucial and myriad ways. It is important to know how learning spaces are associated with learning in order to provide students with the most appropriate spaces to learn. This study investigates the relationship between students' learning patterns and learning spaces in higher education through…

Our understanding of how stress affects primary school children's attention and learning has developed rapidly. We know that children experience differing levels of stressors (factors that cause stress) in their environments, and that this can influence how they respond to new stressors when they occur in educational contexts. Here, we review…

This study explores how students' thinking styles are related to their career decision-making self-efficacy, by administering the Thinking Styles Inventory-Revised II and the Career Decision-Making Self-Efficacy Scale--Short Form to 484 deaf or hard-of-hearing (DHH) and 449 hearing university students in mainland China. Results show that, among…
