The need to develop online classes in the COVID-19 pandemic era was undeniable. This study aimed to investigate students' learning achievement and their feedback in digital vocabulary class, which utilized Kahoot! and Socrative as drilling practice tools. It was quasi-experimental research on first-year students of the Railway Mechanical…

Strengthening self-efficacy and motivation in learning mathematics gives impacts on the students' capability in the field of mathematics, and this may be conducted through a proper learning model, one of which is the cooperative learning model. The objective of this present research was to analyze students' self-efficacy reinforcement and their…

Research examining teachers' decision making is abundant for pedagogical activities, yet a neglected area is the study of factors influencing teachers when selecting mathematical games. This article sheds light on the factors considered when teachers' select a specific game to use in their primary mathematics classroom. Data from 248 Australian…

Interpreting findings from the numerous research studies that identify meta-variables linked with attitudes toward mathematics and their connections to achievement is complicated by the lack of theoretical clarity around the construct of attitudes. This mixed-methods multiple-case phenomenological study expands the body of research that describes…

Learning or doing mathematics involves approximate quantification. The purpose of this research was to improve approximate number system acuity in primary school students with low achievement in mathematics. A quasi-experimental, pre-test, post-test design with a control group was utilized. Mathematics Achievement Test (MAT), Arithmetic…

This study examined a game-based teaching activity on "Factors and Multiples" designed for the 6th grade students. The game aims to create a differentiated and enriched learning environment targeted the curriculum standard "The students determine prime numbers using their properties. The students find prime numbers using the…

The aim of this study is to encourage the development of pre-school teachers by raising their awareness about zerowaste and recycling activities. The need for this research is linked to the lack of prominence about the concept of zerowaste in pre-school programs in Turkey, and also the limited inclusion of opportunities for pre-school students to…

Gagne's theory posits that learning is achieved through interaction of various internal and external factors. If so, the use of supportive technology to provide these factors' interaction may increase expected performance, especially in theoretical courses, and place learning at a higher level. As supportive technology, gamification-based computer…

Gamification is the use of game elements in domains other than games. Gamification use is often suggested for difficult activities because it enhances users' engagement and motivation level. Due to such benefits, the use of gamification is also proposed in education environments to improve students' performance, engagement, and satisfaction.…

This paper describes the initial findings of an exploratory research project investigating the use of the cooperative digital puzzle game Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes as a means to facilitate Second Language Acquisition (SLA). A qualitative case study approach was taken to closely examine the linguistic interaction between three L2 learners of…

The impact of the Good Behavior Game (GBG) on students' classroom behavior has been studied for 50 years. What is less established is the impact of the GBG on students' academic progress. With emerging research in curriculum-based measurement for written expression (WE-CBM), it may be possible to observe changes in students' writing output while…

In their review of the students-as-partners literature, Mercer-Mapstone et al. (2017) found that only 5-6% of published research articles on student-partnership models focused on multidisciplinary partnerships. This case study, authored by five undergraduate students and two academics, sought to examine the utility of using a multidisciplinary…

We describe the production of an educational game ("Catastrophic") for supporting biology learning in higher education (HE) that was developed through a partnership between students and academic staff. We consider the ways in which the development project intersects with the use of game-based learning in HE and with Students as Partners…

Families are a crucial element of children's overall learning (Castro et al. 2015), and their involvement can directly influence children's overall math achievement (Sheldon 2009). School events that foster math among families, such as family math nights, have the potential of improving student math performance (Lopez and Donovan 2009). Latino…

This article describes how different literatures have suggested the positive role of educational games in students' learning, but it can be hard to find an existing game for student learning. Some lecturers may try to develop a game for their courses, but there were not many effective models for educational board game development. The authors have…
