The Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework is becoming increasingly popular for designing instruction in the university setting. The use of the UDL framework ensures that online learning environments are inclusive and equitable for students with a variety of learning needs and preferences. This article focuses on the third UDL principle:…

The problem in this study is to evaluate the improvement of students' geometry skills using the GeoGebra application by focusing on two key indicators: logical thinking and drawing skills. This study employs both quantitative and qualitative methods. In the first stage, quantitative data were collected through pretests and posttests to measure…

An in-depth analysis of collaborative problem solving (CPS) patterns contributes to understand team dynamics and effective paths to conflict resolution. However, there remains the lack of a perspective in the field of CPS research that organically combines the cognitive, meta-cognitive, and social-communicative dimensions. Moreover, the analysis…

Disagreement is often perceived negatively, yet it can be beneficial for learning and scientific inquiry. However, students tend to avoid engaging in disagreement. Peer critique activities offer a promising way to encourage students to embrace disagreement, which supports learning as students articulate their ideas, making them available for…

Problem-solving skills are essential in improving the creative, critical, and logical thinking skills needed in mathematics learning and daily life. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of problem-based learning (PBL)- assisted ethnomathematics-based Geocube e-module on problem-solving skills. This quantitative research applied a…

Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) advocate for equity, diversity and inclusion among students and staff. Yet, they are one of the business sectors with the highest levels of workplace bullying. Bullying can severely impact employee well-being, with sexual minority employees being particularly vulnerable. Building on the Minority Stress Theory,…

Gender imbalance in the technology sector is a long-standing issue. For several decades, Computer Science (CS) outreach activities have become an established strategy for encouraging girls to pursue courses and careers in the field of computing. However, it is not clear how impactful these initiatives are, or what elements make them valuable. A…

Background/purpose: This experimental case study explores professional motivation in learning English among Computer Information Technology (CIT) students at an applied college in Saudi Arabia. The study investigates how motivational drivers, integrated with pedagogical intervention, influence language learning. Materials/methods: A total of 120…

This brief examines the New York City Public Schools' (NYCPS) Computer Science for All (CS4All) initiative's efforts to build teacher capacity and support the implementation of computer science (CS) education across K-12 classrooms. The initiative, launched in 2015, aimed to deliver high-quality CS education to all students by providing robust…

This study examined if gaze-contingent textual enhancement could be used as an interactive focus-on-form device to promote learning of second language (L2) collocations from computer-mediated reading tasks. Seventy-five Chinese ESL users read three English texts that contained twelve target collocations, presented under one of three conditions: no…

A three-week IEPWriter project was added to an undergraduate special education course offered at a mid-sized public university in Southeastern Pennsylvania to help Pre-Service Teachers (PSTs) learn how to manage and write Individualized Education Programs (IEPs). The PSTs completed a 10-item survey regarding their experience using IEPWriter to…

The crucial role of teachers' interpersonal communication skills in diverse aspects of second language (L2) education has been endorsed by prior scholarship. Such significance multiplies in artificial intelligence (AI)-mediated education in which interaction fosters understanding and using content and feedback. Nevertheless, the literature has…

Despite consistent growth in computing-related fields, challenges persist in advancing racial equity--especially within doctoral programs. Minority-Serving Institutions (MSIs) increasingly offer graduate programs. Yet, MSIs are often overlooked in graduate student pathways to computing degrees and careers. Leveraging multiple methodological…

In the area of early language development, understanding links between screen media, vocabulary, and grammar in 5-year-old children is crucial yet complex. While previous studies have exposed a negative association between screen use and vocabulary, the roles of content and context remain less explored, especially within the Swedish context. This…

Drawing on insights from an International Peer-Learning Event hosted by the OECD and the Irish Department of Education, this document summarises key evidence and insights presented by representatives from Estonia, France, and Sweden as well as practical considerations for Irish policymakers. Key issues addressed include the balance between…
