This review study investigates the appropriation of sensing technology in context-aware ubiquitous learning (CAUL) in the fields of sciences, engineering, and humanities. 40 empirical studies with concrete learning outcomes across mandatory and higher education have been systematically reviewed and thematically analyzed with an outcomes-based…

Most often, flipped classroom approaches in science and mathematics classrooms follow a traditional approach to teaching, where students receive direct instruction as homework and have to apply and deepen their knowledge in a follow-up lesson. Little is known about the arrangements of in-class and out-of-class phases fostering learning through…

Research findings suggest that student-centered inquiry learning shows promise for lower-achieving students and that students who are struggling in school participate more fully and demonstrate competency to themselves and others. In this research, we present a multiple case study of three middle-level students who were struggling in school, both…

Government-led reforms in the Further Education (FE) sector in the UK have highlighted the impact that FE institutions can have on national productivity and economic growth. This has resulted in growing calls to support the performance of FE teachers in the classroom. There is a paucity of research that has considered effective teaching practice…

Educational beliefs influence teachers' designing teaching environment, teaching methods and techniques they apply in the classroom, the strategies they use in classroom management and the measurement-evaluation tools they prefer. In this regard, teachers' educational beliefs can be said to affect their curriculum design orientations. Curricula…

Teachers' professional noticing has been described as transitioning from descriptions of general pedagogy to analysis of students' mathematical procedures and conceptual reasoning. Such a shift is described as a transition towards more student-centered noticing. In the present study, we used screen recordings of pre-service teachers' (PSTs) 360…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the most important and feasible factors required for reform and successful inclusion of substance use prevention curriculum into aging-infused certificate and degree programs at 4-year universities. Methodology: This study employed a Delphi technique through three iterative rounds to gather data…

This guide is designed to help school team design learning that equitably honors the unique assets and needs of students. Learning must be designed with students at the center. It must be personalized to students' unique assets, interests, identities, and aspirations--and designed with their ideas and voices at the table. Education Evolving has…

This is a study of teachers transition after a professional development (PD). The purpose was to document and characterize the teachers' experiences as they transitioned toward use of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and more learner-centered teacher practices. The teachers participated in a PD workshop that provided information on the…

Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs) incorporate research opportunities into the existing curriculum often by providing alternatives or replacing the traditional cookbook-based laboratory courses. Over the past 50 years, CURE courses have been shown to benefit both students and faculty members alike. Despite the large number of…

The reaction rate and rate law are chemical kinetics concepts that undergraduate students have difficulty understanding and applying in real life. A further challenge is the overall reaction rate of consecutive reactions. Herein we present a creative teaching practice using the analogy-based approach to exploit the similarities between the…

The existence of the flipped classroom has gained attention among scholars and teachers, particularly in higher education. This instructional model appeals much concern due to its capability not only to shift the instructional process from teacher-centered to student-centered but also to transform university classrooms into an active learning…

Developments in international inclusive education policy, including in prominent UN documents, often refer to the aim of a "quality" education "for all." Yet, it remains unclear: What exactly is meant by quality education? And, under what conditions are quality educational experiences possible for all learners? In this essay,…

Information and knowledge of science are very necessary and vital inputs for growth and survival in modern times. Science is a body of knowledge that can be rationally interpreted and applied consistently in human endeavors. Science as a form of information is a way to examine a process and a way of thinking in the quest for an understanding of…

The purpose of this article was to examine the potential contribution of a particular student-oriented and socio-constructivist teaching model, T-DLM, with respect to: (1) constructivism and nonlinear pedagogy; and (2) the development of metacognitive awareness and self-regulation of learning in students engaged in a team-sport teaching/learning…
