Zion, Michal; Schwartz, Renee S.; Rimerman-Shmueli, Esther; Adler, Idit – Research in Science Education, 2020
One of today's challenges in science education involves the development of appropriate conceptions of inquiry teaching and realizing how these experiences can support students' understanding of the nature of science and inquiry (NOS and NOSI). To meet this challenge, we developed a course for in-service science teachers, in which…

Rach, Stefanie; Ufer, Stefan – International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, 2020
The transition from school to tertiary mathematics courses, which involve advanced mathematics, is a challenge for many students. Prior research has established the central role of prior mathematical knowledge for successfully dealing with challenges in learning processes during the study entrance phase. However, beyond knowing that more prior…

Filippou, Kalypso – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2020
This study reports on an interview-based study of thesis supervisors' attitudes on initiating discussions on students' expectations and prior thesis writing experiences in international master's degree programmes. One aim of this study is to identify the various practices which supervisors implement and the reasoning they use to foster a…

Preece, Siân – Language, Culture and Curriculum, 2020
This paper sets out to develop a finer-grained understanding of the 'plurilingual social actor' within an Anglophone higher educational setting. Drawing on data collected as part of The Multilingual University project, I examine how a group of plurilingual postgraduate students taking modules in applied linguistics at a university in London viewed…

Bergan-Roller, Heather E.; Galt, Nicholas J.; Helikar, Tomáš; Dauer, Joseph T. – Journal of Biological Education, 2020
Meaningful learning occurs by relating new information to and revising prior knowledge, making it essential to understand student knowledge before helping them move toward a more scientific understanding. In this study, we characterise prior knowledge about cellular respiration in undergraduate students enrolled in introductory biology by…

Nina Woll; Pierre-Luc Paquet – Language Teaching Research, 2025
If maximal exposure were the key to success in language learning, then adult learners at the university level would be doomed to fail. Not only are they presumably too old to learn additional languages effectively, but target language (TL) input appears to be insufficient, especially when other languages are allowed in class. Nevertheless,…

Khasila Bulan; Chona Mae Crisostomo; Alyssa Danica Estrera; Jecylle Jean Linao; Julia Mitz Mariñas; Zyann Quilicot; Elieza Jane Senillo; Mabet Vergara; Angelito Cabanilla Jr. – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2025
A multiple regression analysis was conducted to investigate what variables may predict the student's self-perceived proficiency in mathematics. Hence, this quantitative cross-sectional survey design aimed to explore the factors predicting the student's self-perceived proficiency in mathematics using gamified instruction. Two hundred twenty-five…

Zhao, Kai – Higher Education Research and Development, 2022
Rural students' academic performance is of critical importance for college success and later life outcomes. Prior literature on the rural-urban gap in academic performance has produced mixed results. Drawing on data from students at a highly selective university in Beijing, this study compares the differences in academic performance between…

Taherian Kalati, Atefeh; Kim, Mi Song – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
This systematic review provides an overview of existing evidence regarding the effect of touchscreen technology on young children's learning. Using PRISMA principles, we identified 53 studies in our review. The literature generally advocated positive effects of touchscreen devices on young children's learning with 34 studies reporting positive…

Coskun, Atakan; Cagiltay, Kursat – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: The most challenging task in eye-tracking-based multimedia research is to establish a relationship between eye-tracking metrics (or cognitive processes) and learners' performance scores. Additionally, there are current debates about the effectiveness of animations (or simulations) in promoting learning in multimedia settings.…

Iskhakova, Marina; Bradly, Andrew; Whiting, Bronwen; Lu, Vinh N. – Studies in Higher Education, 2022
Cultural intelligence (CQ) is critical to students' academic and career success. Drawing on experiential learning theory, the current study investigates the extent to which students' prior international experience and short-term study abroad destinations foster the development of their CQ. We examined the learning of 121 undergraduate students…

Kuang, Xiulin; Eysink, Tessa H. S.; de Jong, Ton – Journal of Educational Research, 2022
This study investigated the effects of providing domain information in an early stage of an inquiry process, together with an aligned hypothesis scratchpad, on inquiry learning, and hypothesis generation in particular. Participants were provided with basic domain information that was adapted to their prior knowledge (experimental condition) or…
