This study aimed to develop instructional packages using a growth mindset framework to enhance positive psychological capital among students of the Faculty of Education, Kasetsart University. The sample consisted of 30students enrolled in the course on Educational Psychology and Guidance for Teachers, selected by purposive sampling. The research…

Understanding students' emerging roles in computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) is critical for promoting regulated learning processes and supporting learning at both individual and group levels. However, it has been challenging to disentangle individual performance from group-based deliverables. This study introduces new learning…

This paper is part 5 of a series of workshops that examines the properties of some simple models of vocabulary networks. While previous workshops dealt with activating words in the network, this workshop focuses on vocabulary loss. We will simulate two possible ways of modelling attrition: (a) explicitly turning active words OFF, and (b) raising…

Background: We examine the efficacy of an online collaborative problem-solving (CPS) teaching approach in academic performance and student connections with other peers, among first-year engineering calculus students at a Latin American university. Our research uses communities of practice (CoP) to emphasize the social nature of learning and the…

Purpose: This study aims to explore interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary interactions around sustainability, focusing on the United Nations sustainable development goals (SDGs). By using the city as an informal learning space, it presents a case study to raise SDG awareness, promote interdisciplinarity, foster critical thinking and empower…

Despite the pervasive impact of US imperialism, it is often ignored in US schools and teacher preparation programs. This paper introduces the concept of "imperial evasion," which refers to the process of ignoring and denying imperialism and its effects. The authors argue that it is imperative that educators work to interrogate…

Background: Research shows that how formative assessments are operationalized plays a crucial role in shaping their engagement with formative assessments, thereby impacting their effectiveness in predicting academic achievement. Mandatory assessments can ensure consistent student participation, leading to better tracking of learning progress.…

This interpretive case study is a reflection on the introduction of a mindfulness intervention to facilitate education for sustainable development in an accounting programme. We adopt contemplative pedagogy, mindfulness, and education for sustainable development in our theoretical framework with the aim of fostering mindset transformation. The…

This semester-long original teaching activity is a scaffolded writing assignment with accompanying rubrics that utilize an adapted academic publishing model (i.e. accept, revise and resubmit with minor revisions, or revise and resubmit with major revisions) to facilitate a growth mindset. This revise-and-resubmit approach to teaching and assessing…

Given the fact that learner engagement is a prerequisite for effective online education, identifying and comprehending the factors that enhance learners' engagement in online classes seems necessary. To address this need, several studies have been conducted to identify the predictors of learner engagement in online classrooms. Nevertheless,…

This article reports on a controlled study to investigate the efficacy of incorporating explicit discussions about the duality of human reasoning and its implications for learning in physics instruction. The central goal is to probe to what extent, if at all, such discussions improve student performance on tasks that tend to elicit intuitively…

Online education is now a common mode of delivery to support continuous education and training for adults. A range of technological platforms and processes have evolved to make online learning more engaging and effective, notably since the pandemic. Notwithstanding the widespread adoption of online education, research shows that many adult…

Reform documents advocate for innovative pedagogical strategies to enhance student learning. A key innovation is the integration of science and engineering practices through engineering design (ED)-based physics laboratory tasks, where students tackle engineering design problems by applying physics principles. While this approach has its benefits,…

We used student surveys to assess changes in proficiency with integral calculus, calculus self-efficacy, and physics self-efficacy in a second semester course of introductory physics focused on electricity and magnetism. In addition to tracking the fraction of quantitative problems solved correctly on the calculus proficiency survey, we also used…

Online collaborative learning has the potential to help learners of all cultures and languages in the artificial intelligence (AI) age. However, studies on the use of human-AI collaboration to promote online collaborative learning are lacking. This study attempts to fill this gap by examining the effects of three approaches to human-AI…
