Micro-inquiries are a streamlined adaptation of the Inquiry Design Model (IDM) and C3 Framework that break down rich, meaningful content and skill explorations into short lessons that teachers can include in "less" than a single lesson. Recognizing that full IDM implementations can be time-consuming and challenging for elementary…

Improving reading outcomes for students with reading disabilities/difficulties (RD) has been commonly studied relative to 'what' a reading intervention entails. Here, we offer a broader perspective on 'when' we implement reading services to improve our interpretation of reading progress. We address several aspects related to timeframes (i.e.,…

The growing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools into English as a foreign language (EFL) instruction presents new opportunities for fostering students' self-regulated learning (SRL) and task engagement (TE). While prior research has shown that AI-assisted environments can enhance metacognitive monitoring and learning motivation,…

This study proposes a project-based learning methodology that emphasises technical research with the active participation of schoolchildren. The study focuses on ecological conservation using ceramic slurry 3D printing technology. It is categorised into two distinctive technical and educational aspects. The technical aspect deals with reverse…

Multimodal synchronous-computer-mediated communication (SCMC) provides many possibilities for improving language learners' pragmatic competence (Maa & Taguchi, 2022). However, the research exploring how SCMC mode affects the pragmatic learning process and its outcome is limited. This study investigates the effects of SCMC modes on pragmatic…

Purpose: Accessing higher education (HE) in the UK has been a primary pathway for school and college leavers for the past two decades. The present study, through a case study approach, aims to explore graduates' evaluations of the usefulness of university education by examining their evaluations of skill development, employability-focused learning…

As flexible transitions between online and offline teacher training modalities become ubiquitous, educators encounter multifaceted challenges. Their collaborative roles and learning experiences across these distinct CSCL environments remain under-explored. This study aims to map patterns of teacher adaptation and acquire responsive strategies for…

Game-based applications and strategies are effective solutions to contemporary challenges in English language learning. Kahoot is an online platform that assists learning in an untraditional but effective way. This probe examines whether the use of Kahoot in a Saudi English language classroom can boost the vocabulary acquisition of the…

This study aims to analyze the influence of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) and Guided Discovery Learning (GDL) on students' critical thinking skills in geometry focusing on mathematical literacy within geometry content. Specifically, it examines the effects of self-confidence, mathematical literacy scores, and gender on critical thinking skills and…

Purpose: This study aims to examine how language background and grade level influence the voiceless sibilant fricative production of two groups of children enrolled in a Mandarin-English bilingual school in Canada. One group of children was exposed to Mandarin at home as heritage language (HL), and the other group had little to no exposure to…

Traditional approaches to intelligence often neglect the diverse cognitive profiles of learners, potentially limiting the inclusivity and effectiveness of educational practices. This review article examines the application of Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences (MI) within the context of biology education, with a particular focus on…

This study examined the improvement of mathematical problem-solving skills and learning motivation among students taught using the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model assisted by Augmented Reality (AR). It also investigated the interaction between the learning model and students' ability levels to enhance these skills and motivation. A…

Many students are finishing secondary school without the essential mathematical skills needed to participate in social activities. Research in mathematics education has been investigating the phenomenon of persistent low achievement in mathematics learning from various perspectives, including cognitive, affective, and social ones. Each perspective…

Students with mathematics difficulty, especially students with disabilities and emergent bilinguals, require careful consideration during word-problem instruction. Word problems that include relational terms such as more but are not easily solved using the implied operation (i.e., addition) can be particularly challenging. First, we summarize a…

Previous studies have found that pride is a frequent and important emotion in achievement contexts although it is under-researched in the second/foreign language (FL) context. Therefore, the aim of this research was to explore pride in the context of FL learning. For this purpose, we proposed a conceptual model of FL pride, drawing on previous…
