The education system has relied on conventional single-score assessments, which provide limited insights into students' cognitive abilities. Cognitive diagnostic assessment (CDA) offers a promising alternative by providing detailed information on students' cognitive processes. The review aims to explore the recent trends of cognitive diagnostic…

There is a growing interest in cross-disciplinary education aimed at instilling an open mindset in students in order to help them navigate complex societal issues. Since this requires commitment to learning, self-reflection, and venturing out of the "known," it is essential to understand student motivation for this type of learning that…

In the 21st century, virtual reality technology has developed rapidly, and many researchers are full of enthusiasm for this technology. More and more researchers are devoted to the field of scientific research and attach importance to virtual reality research. Development and application is a hot topic in today's world. Virtual reality has been…

Background/purpose: Learning problems are a common occurrence in the field of education, especially in the context of the post-pandemic era. This study aims to investigate the challenges faced by teachers in learning and the solutions they proposed to address these issues. Materials/methods: A phenomenological design was used in this study, with…

School designs have far-reaching future impacts. Facilities often remain unchanged for decades influencing whether generations of young people feel included and can access educational entitlements, especially those identifying as someone from a marginalised or minority group. Student perspectives are therefore essential to understand inclusive…

This paper demonstrates that recurrent difficulties students encounter in learning subject-matter knowledge can be traced, in part, to assumptions about how students best learn knowledge that significantly shape instructional approaches. First, I review the significant influence of empiricist epistemological assumptions on education, covering…

Purpose: Higher education institutions increasingly emphasize data analytics education, yet curricula based solely on competency-based frameworks may overlook industry's process-driven approach. This study examines the process deficit in data analytics education and its impact on workforce readiness. It explores strategies to better align…

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…

Research on engineering practice and its relationship with engineering education is getting increased attention in the engineering education literature recently. In this article, we present a study of engineering practice in an electrical power utility company that focused specifically on the learning practices of professional engineers. Through…

Ensuring employees are competent and confident to perform their duties relies on new employee orientation and ongoing compliance training. Currently, there is no industry standard or evidence-informed decision framework that determines when to use face-to-face, online, or blended learning for healthcare workplace training. This mixed methods…

This meta-analysis examined whether learning outcomes differ (a) for STEM integration versus traditional instruction and (b) across STEM integration implementations. Based on 79 effect sizes from 40 studies of 15,577 students, those learning via STEM integration outperformed other students on academic achievement tests (g = 0.661; 95% CI [0.548,…

Innovation and entrepreneurship education has become a global priority, driven by the need for innovation-led national development and the imperative to reform and enhance the quality of higher education. As a pivotal vehicle for delivering such education in the digital era, Innovation and Entrepreneurship MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) have…

Aim and background: Today, students are encouraged to develop spatial visualization ability to meet the challenges of digital technologies impacting their daily life and education when exposed more time to a virtual 3D environment. This study investigated the effect of cognitive flexibility levels on students' spatial visualization abilities and…

Standard-based curriculum enhances quality, and coherence of educational outcomes to gauge the alignment between standards and assessment to meet the diverse needs of learners. The Single National Curriculum (SNC) 2022 was developed and implemented to provide quality education aimed at unifying and standardizing education across the country in…

This study investigated the effectiveness of an instructional model that integrates project-based learning and WebQuests to enhance Chinese undergraduate engineering students' innovation abilities. The model was implemented in an engineering drawing and CAD course with 38 third-year students over one semester. A one-group repeated-measures design…
