Purpose: This article presents our experience in implementing the assessment for learning process (AfL) to enhance the teaching-learning quality, which has faced numerous challenges impacting educational quality. The effectiveness of this technique is demonstrated through a case study conducted in a core course of chemical engineering.…

Context: Remote and online learning have become features of K-12 education since the COVID-19 school closures. Despite the increasing presence of online classrooms, the theoretical and ethical dimensions of this shift remain underexplored. While much attention has been paid to issues of access, equity, and instructional design, less consideration…

Few studies have examined how cognitive-reading relations vary for children and adolescents with different levels of general cognitive ability. This may be instrumental in understanding the development of academic skills and learning difficulties. Research suggests reading development should emphasize the influence of contextual factors that have…

Anatomy education presents a complex motivational environment, yet little is known about how medical students experience this climate. Grounded in the MUSIC Model of Motivation framework, this study explored students' perceptions of the motivational climate in a first-year medical anatomy course. Using a mixed-methods design, we surveyed students…

Public Administration (PA) as an academic discipline has traditionally been anchored in the principles of state-centric governance, national implementation policies, and the management of domestic public affairs. However, the rise of global and transnational governance has significantly reshaped the context in which public administrators operate.…

This paper shows the effectiveness of an experiential learning activity for teaching core Hadoop concepts to undergraduate business students across all majors (Finance, Marketing, etc.). The complexity of Hadoop, with its distributed computing model and deep technical requirements, presents significant challenges in educational settings. The…

Researchers conducting studies related to special education contexts in rural schools must find ways to account for and consider unique and diverse cultural and contextual factors. In this article, we introduce mixed-methods social network analysis as one way to incorporate the structural and cultural aspects of rurality within a research design.…

This paper utilises Bourdieu's concept of hysteresis to explore factors which prompted five Australian music teachers to instate pedagogical approaches deemed 'atypical'. Critics labelling Bourdieu's work as deterministic have previously implied that Bourdieusian concepts are unable to readily explain processes of pedagogical change, particularly…

Constant Time Delay (CTD) is a structured, error-reducing teaching strategy with promising applications for students with mathematical learning difficulties (MLD). In this study, we systematically replicated CTD in a German inclusive classroom to evaluate its effects on multiplication fact fluency. Two fourth-grade boys with persistent…

This study aims to assess the efficacy of active learning strategies within the context of open and distance learning (ODL), considering that most participants are adults. To investigate the practical implementation of active learning in the Open and Distance Learning (ODL) setting, two research questions have been formulated regarding the…

This study examines how academics experience the adoption of project-based learning (PBL) in maritime higher education, analyzed through Engeström's Activity Theory. While PBL has shown effectiveness in higher education, little research addresses the contradictions that arise in specific teaching and learning contexts. Using a qualitative…

The study assessed the science teaching confidence of preservice teachers in teaching elementary science by addressing two research questions: (1) Did preservice teachers understand the science concepts well enough to be effective in teaching elementary science content? (2) Did preservice teachers have the necessary science concepts and skills to…

Mathematical geometrical (MG) concept is often perceived as abstract and difficult to understand by students at the TVET College. Students are unable to perform well in Mathematic Assessments Tasks specifically on this concept. Drawing from this is the declining percentages of student enrolments in mathematics at National Qualification Framework…

The purpose of this longitudinal study was to explore the development of pre-service chemistry teachers' pedagogical content knowledge regarding the effect of temperature on reaction rate topic as they took pedagogical content knowledge courses throughout the teacher education program. Pre-service teachers' pedagogical content knowledge was…

Purpose: Case-based classroom teaching-learning process (hereafter, case method) has provided a very productive teaching-learning environment for a long time. In the case method, students are expected to meet some prerequisites, such as reading and analyzing the case in advance, listening to the classroom discussion and actively participating in…
