This study aims to assess the impact of flipped classroom on public speaking performance of students, considering various levels of critical thinking. Additionally, it focuses on analyzing the interaction between flipped classroom, levels of critical thinking, and achievements of students in public speaking. The study adopted a quasi-experiment…

Flipped Learning is a teaching method that gives learners the opportunity to learn both online and face-to-face. In the Flipped Classroom, students learn the basic content independently before class and then have the opportunity to discuss, solve problems, and develop skills in class. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Flipped…

Science education is an important component of a full education beginning in primary grades. In recent decades, research has identified young learners' rich knowledge of the natural world and their potential to connect with sophisticated science ideas. Elementary teachers face many challenges to implementing reform-based science instruction in…

Students' expectations for their laboratory coursework are theorized to have an impact on their learning experiences and behaviors, such as engagement. Before students' expectations and engagement can be explored in different types of undergraduate chemistry laboratory courses, appropriate measures of these constructs must be identified, and…

Background: Despite increasing attention on emotional labor in teacher well-being research, person-centered studies are relatively scarce, particularly concerning the emotional labor of online teaching during COVID-19 and its effects on teachers' non-work-related mental health. Objective: This study aims to address these gaps by examining…

This study investigates the differences between human-generated and AI-generated summaries in a remote English as a Foreign Language (EFL) lesson setting, addressing the research problem of how each approach captures and interprets lesson content. Utilizing Zoom-AI as the AI summarization tool, the study compares its output with summaries created…

Digital learning environments such as virtual laboratories have been proposed to augment or even replace conventional forms of teaching in recent years. While there is some evidence on comparable learning outcomes between real and virtual labs, empirical evidence on the effectiveness of virtual labs as compared to conventional face-to-face…

We show how the principles of flipped learning that have been successfully applied to analytics classes taught face-to-face (F2F) at the undergraduate and graduate levels were emulated in corresponding online classes. Student satisfaction in the online flipped analytics classes was compared to student satisfaction in the F2F flipped analytics…

Higher-level learning goals can be achieved almost only through teaching methods which actively involve students in their learning. This study aimed to compare the effects of traditional teaching and flipped classroom methods on midwifery students' practical learning. This embedded mixed method study was conducted on 34 first-year midwifery…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is threefold: first, to explain the link between traditional same-age school structure and the impact this has on a school's capacity for individual and organisational learning; second, to explain why attempts to develop schools as learning organisations (LOs) invariably reify existing structures and practice,…

Complementing biology lecture courses with laboratory sections is nearly universal at undergraduate institutions, yet many topics in biology do not easily lend themselves to experiment-based laboratory activities. Topics such as comparative anatomy, evolution and systematics are often taught as passive, observation-based laboratories. In this…

As the United States is becoming increasingly culturally diverse, so are nurse educators expected to provide an evidence-based approach to training in a multicultural learning environment. Educators are to adopt culturally responsive strategies in response to the increasing ethnically and culturally diverse student population. Many nursing schools…

Flipped classroom learning methods have been gaining a lot of popularity in recent years. Educators have recorded many mixed results about the effectiveness of this method to achieve superior concept retention in students. Although there has been lot of research published about flipped learning, very little is known how this method affects the…

The COVID-19 pandemic caused educators across the country and around the world were required to replace in-person instruction of students with teaching/learning through online platforms for a period of months (Perifanou et al, 2021). Despite the numerous advantages that using technology with students were shown to have, many teachers remain…

Topographic map-reading skills are critical for certain professions but can be difficult to learn. The purpose of this pilot study is to provide insight on the role augmented reality technology can play in the development of topographic map-reading skills. Using a situated cognition theoretical framework, this study tracks the development of…
