Recently scientists have underscored a significant mismatch between the latest theoretical Computational Thinking conceptualizations as an upcoming literacy that goes beyond computer science, and its operationalizations in current empirical research and designs, which are limited to coding-centred and domain-specific tools and approaches. To…

The adoption of blended and hybrid Flipped Classroom (FC) models increased dramatically during COVID-19 and is still highly valued and recommended for enhancing the quality, flexibility, and effectiveness of teaching and learning post-pandemic. While meta-analyses indicate a small yet meaningful effect size of the FC approach, examined studies…

This research aimed to (1) investigate changes in attitudes towards learning STEM and coding, innovativeness, and entrepreneurial attitudes, and (2) synthesize characteristics and evaluate innovations to address problems after participating in an innovation camp for 180 early high school students. Activities included learning platforms to foster…

This qualitative study aimed to explore the development of self-concept in adolescents attending schools for students with high abilities, interviewing 28 adolescents from two centers for students with high abilities in the metropolitan area of Monterrey, Mexico. Using a thematic analysis approach, the data were analyzed across four categories…

This study examines the relationship between middle school students' undesirable behaviours and digital game addiction. Undesirable behaviours disrupt teaching, harm peers, compromise safety, and lower teacher motivation. These behaviours, often influenced by family and environmental factors, disrupt classroom order. Digital games, particularly…

This study examined whether the links between children's ADHD symptom severity and academic and social functioning varied based on their aerobic fitness levels. Hierarchical regression models were used to examine the main and interactive effects of inattentive and hyperactive/impulsive (HI) symptom severity and aerobic fitness levels on academic…

Using a repeated cross-sectional sample of nearly 55,000 adolescents from the School Crime Supplement over 16 years (2001-2017), we examined the associations between a latent school security measure and 20 different adolescent outcomes, with a particular focus on whether these associations changed over time. Results indicated that the associations…

This study explores the integration of game play into an inclusive, hands-on computing project in Calculus class. The project is focused on designing and analyzing priority switches for applications competing for computational resources on embedded devices such as smart watches and tablets. By engaging students in real-world problem-solving…

The purpose of this study is to develop learning model of design thinking learning with a Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) approach to enhance autonomous learning in early writing and reading. This study conducted base on problems that exist in strategies for teaching early writing and reading in elementary schools and seek solutions that can…

This meta-synthesis study examines the use of digital assessment tools in education, focusing on their prevalence, benefits, limitations, and recommendations for effective integration into teaching processes. Based on 41 empirical studies published between December 2012 and January 2023, this study follows the thematic synthesis approach proposed.…

In this study, we explored the contribution of instructional strategies in nurturing critical thinking skills in Non-Formal Secondary Education (NFSE) in Tanzania. It was carried out in the Dar es Salaam Region. A qualitative approach with phenomenology design was employed and it involved 44 learners and 8 teachers making a total of 52…

Parenting interventions have been shown to be successful in supporting parents to address children's challenging behaviour. This systematic literature review explores the effectiveness of Non-Violent Resistance (NVR), a specific parenting intervention which aims to help parents cope with children's violent and controlling behaviour. It is a…

Purpose: This study aims (a) to assess the psychometric properties of a French adaptation of the Assessment of Pragmatic Abilities and Cognitive Substrates (APACS-Fr), a comprehensive test of pragmatic abilities for French-speaking adolescents and adults, and (b) to use it to study lifespan variations in pragmatic abilities, to determine when…

This meta-analysis assessed the effectiveness of problem-posing interventions on learners' cognitive learning outcomes. We systematically reviewed 26 quantitative studies published between 2002 and 2024. The results show a large, positive, and significant effect (Hedges's [g-bar] = 0.53) of problem-posing interventions. A series of subgroup…

The debate surrounding skills that young people will need in the future to master current national and global challenges is subject to a continuous, controversial process. A consensus has resulted in what are known as twenty-first-century skills. These skills aim to enable learners to form well-founded opinions and be educated to become…
