Recent instructional reforms in science education aim to change the way students engage in learning in the discipline, as they describe that students are to engage with disciplinary core ideas, crosscutting concepts, and the practices of science to make sense of phenomena (NRC, 2012). For such sensemaking to become a reality, there is a need to…

The design of the project-based learning, or PjBL, via brainstorming with metaverse to promote multimedia production skills is based on the integration of the concepts of project-based learning processes via brainstorming with virtual world technologies for use in the instruction management. Thereby, the instruction management in this way is said…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between epistemological beliefs and learning approaches of university students. The mediator effect of gender was also tested.
