Professional learning communities (PLCs) have been commonly implemented in educational context, specifically in English language education. While prior studies have continuously reported PLCs' contribution and impacts on teacher professional development (TPD), some also reported several challenges in implementing PLCs. In this regard, a…

Research on the possible benefits of digital games for learning outcomes in STEM education has shown mixed results, which is another reason that this study is focused on inconsistencies in past research outcomes. Moreover, it seeks to explore the moderator variables which affect the success of digital games like game design, interactive…

Belonging is central to many students' educational experiences, yet the field of school belonging contends with limited theoretical grounding specifically developed for educational contexts and unresolved tensions between research and practice. This qualitative study evaluates the applicability of the meta-theoretical "Integrative Framework…

Since COVID-19, Dynamic Mathematics Software (DMS) has been more widely used in mathematics classes, and many studies have been published. These data, generated because of technological updates and the popularity of COVID-19, should be addressed. To examine comprehensively the effectiveness of DMS on K-12 students' mathematics learning, this…

This study aims to identify the theoretical premises and key variables affect to develop children's emotional intelligence (EI). To this end, the Preferred Studies for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) was used for the meta-analysis. The final data set consisted of 73 cases which affect to develop children's EI from 24 studies, and the…

Assessment in education has shifted from summative to formative models in recent decades, with technological advancements facilitating flexible implementation anytime and anywhere. Stemming from this phenomenon, this study aims to identify the trends in mathematics learning assessment in Southeast Asia through a systematic literature review (SLR)…

This paper critically examines the transformative potential of integrating Community Engagement (CE) and Culturally Responsive Pedagogy (CRP) within Initial Teacher Education (ITE) programs globally. It highlights the significance of community-based learning and the Funds of Knowledge (FoK) framework in preparing educators to address the…

In the SEND Code of Practice, the area of sensory and/or physical needs includes children and young people with sensory impairments such as those affecting sight or hearing, as well as multi-sensory impairment (MSI), which involves combined difficulties with vision and hearing, and physical disabilities affecting motor skills and coordination…

This systematic review examines the factors that facilitate student performance in oral assessments at the undergraduate and master's levels across diverse academic disciplines. As higher education increasingly shifts from traditional written assessments to alternative summative methods--partly in response to the rise of generative artificial…

Meta-analysis is a statistical method that combines quantitative findings from previous studies. It has been increasingly used to obtain more credible results in a wide range of scientific fields. Combining the results of relevant studies allows researchers to leverage study similarities while modeling potential sources of between-study…

Background: Previous meta-analyses have shown that feedback targeting text comprehension given when students perform a reading task positively influences learning from text. So far, differences in the effects of feedback were explained by design features, such as the timing and richness of feedback. In the present study, we aim to investigate…

Despite numerous studies involving personality traits and second language (L2) learning achievement over many years, there is a lack of an overall picture about how personality traits are related to L2 learning achievement. This study aims to conduct a systematic quantitative synthesis of the studies that examined the relationships between the Big…

Moral value is one of the crucial elements in human development, where moral or civic education formed a substantial part of the focus on personal development. This study examined the inculcation of universal moral values (UMVs) using language in teaching and learning as a vehicle to instil the UMVs. It has been ascertained through previous…

Computational thinking (CT), which is a cognitive skill used to solve problems with computational solutions, has drawn increasing attention among researchers and practitioners due to the growing recognition of CT competence as a 21st century skill. Collaboration is commonly integrated into CT education to facilitate novice learning, but there is…

The current meta-analysis comprehensively examined the effects of physical activity interventions on executive function among people with neurodevelopmental disorders. The meta-analysis included 34 studies with 1058 participants aged 5-33 years. Results indicated an overall significant medium effect of physical activity interventions on improving…
