This quantitative research examined the effect of the implementation of project-based learning and assessment on the standardized test scores of high school students. Data were collected through a quantitative approach using standardized test scores for ninth-grade students taking the end-of-course World History and Geography to 1500 A.D. (C.E.)…

Science education is an important component of a full education beginning in primary grades. In recent decades, research has identified young learners' rich knowledge of the natural world and their potential to connect with sophisticated science ideas. Elementary teachers face many challenges to implementing reform-based science instruction in…

This study investigates whether participating in digital storytelling (DST) activities improves language learning and the technical computer skills required for this type of project. Moreover, the present investigation also directly explored the learning benefits and elements of contextualization derived from maintaining a personal digital…

This study seeks to determine the pre-service science teachers' STEM self-efficacy beliefs, STEM awareness, and 21st century skills at the beginning and end of a technology-based project. 28 pre-service science teachers, all aged 20-24, were included in the study. They were the 3rd or 4th grade pre-service science teachers studying at 13…

Computational thinking is accepted today as a collection of cognitive and social skills required for functioning in the 21st century. The paper presents a conceptual view at computational thinking that encompass concepts, problem-solving skills, application skills, and social skills.

The present contribution illuminates the initial developments in the adoption of Complex Instruction in Germany, where the implementation of the approach has just begun. It gives insights into a teacher education project, a theatre project, and a planned project at secondary schools.

Collaboration skills are essential skills that students must have in the era of higher education, where they must work together to complete complex tasks. This study intends to examine the effectiveness of project-based learning (PjBL) supported by artificial intelligence-driven mind mapping in enhancing the collaboration skills of pre-service…

Even though many experimental studies have considered nurturing creativity as an essential advantage in implementing STE(A)M (Science, Technology, Engineering, [Arts], and Mathematics) education, there is currently a lack of meta-analysis research on the effect of STE(A)M education on creativity to confirm that STE(A)M education can improve…

Background/purpose: This analysis aims to determine the mapping of the application of the project-based learning (PjBL) model to design learning needs according to the learning environment in vocational high schools (VHS). Research trends of PjBL in vocational schools, subject mapping of PjBL, opportunities for appropriate PjBL studies, and…

This study examines the impact of integrating Design Thinking and Maker Education into project-based learning (PBL) activities on primary school students' self-efficacy and motivation in Science, Technology, and Design. Drawing on Bandura's social cognitive theory, the study addresses the gap in empirical research at the primary education level,…

This study describes an educational strategy of forming transdisciplinary work teams--with students from different careers and semesters--for developing academic projects as a collaborative learning tool. This strategy was implemented in the elective course Process Design, which involved developing projects in industrial processes. As a final…

This article is an evaluative research study, mapping the outcomes of the art and citizenship project Dealing with the real stuff, in which students developed the competences of critical thinking and creative resistance. During this project, Dutch students at a school for compulsory education, aged 15-16 years, studied activist art, participated…
