This study presents a STEM activity titled "A Paleontologist's Task: Fossils" designed based on the 5E learning model. The activity was implemented within the unit of "Earth's crust and Earth" in a science lesson with 22 fourth grade students attending a public primary school in Düzce/Turkey in the 2020- 2021 academic year. As…

This study had two primary purposes: (1) to investigate the effect of register, direction, and magnitude on musicians' evaluation of chamber ensemble intonation, and (2) determine whether a novel nonparametric technique, ordinal pattern analysis (OPA), was a viable alternative to repeated-measures analysis of variance (rANOVA). I digitally…

In activities based on proof without words (PWW), we developed, students are given a PWW--a diagram that alludes to the proof of a mathematical theorem. The students work collaboratively to construct a proof alluded by the PWW, and then each student writes and submits a proof attempt. In a 3-year design-based study, we investigate and develop…

This study investigates the distance education activities of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) working in the field of education in Turkey during the COVID-19 pandemic. The distance education activities of NGOs, practices of NGOs assisting distance education, and principles adopted by NGOs in the distance education activities during the…

Background: Exercise has been recognized as a promising and emerging treatment for individuals recovering from addiction. The purpose of this article was to systematically review scientific studies using exercise as a means to improve, sustain, or treat addictions, and to provide suggestions for the future use of exercise as a treatment method for…

Preservice music educators are expected to develop a variety of skills throughout their undergraduate program to prepare them for the challenges of classroom instruction. One of the most complex tasks is to learn how to effectively conduct and rehearse large ensembles. Preservice music educators often struggle with conducting gestures, balancing…

Several studies related to mathematics understanding found that many undergraduate students lack some basic knowledge of algebra. They memorized only a few topics, formulas, and algorithms without understanding them conceptually, even though they could manipulate those limited number of points correctly or incorrectly. In comparison, most…

To inform pedagogical decisions about using technology, it is important to understand from the ground up how technology is utilised during language learning activities. This paper takes an ethnomethodological conversation analytic approach to examine a learner's participation in epistemic management actions and its consequences for second language…

This study has two main goals: (a) to compare whether objective and self-reported PA levels, and motivational regulations were similar among European adolescents with different cultural norms, and (b), to analyse whether the associations between those motivational regulations towards objective and self-reported PA levels vary across Spanish and…

Interaction is an essential component of learning environments and necessary for student learning. The three main types of interaction are Learner-Instructor (LI), Learner-Content (LC), and Learner-Learner (LL). This article, the second in a three-part series, addresses LC interaction and uses an undergraduate fitness and physical activity course…

Coding is a process often associated with computers. Nevertheless, coding is a thought process that can be mastered even without a computer. In NSW, primary students are introduced to computational and algorithmic thinking as early as Stage 1. Yet, teaching coding to young students is not always easy for teachers, mostly because the process is…

Physical activity is essential for children's current and future health, but most do not get their recommended daily 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity. Schools are an ideal environment for physical activity since students spend most of their waking hours at school. In this paper, we inquire into a sedentary school environment…

This article both describes and explains the nature of system simulations--the generation of (non-)numeric models representing characteristics, behaviors, or functions of physical or abstract systems/processes under study. For ease of presentation, I first present some of the most pressing theoretical-practical considerations concerning…

When the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a deadly pandemic on March 11, 2020, trauma ensued across the world (Mishra, Gupta, and Shree 2020; Shekhar 2021). Children at home thought that they would return to school after a couple of weeks, but instead, many schools ended up shutting down for the entire year. The world switched to…

Introduction: In the relationship between sports morality and the morality of everyday life, there are no relevant studies and researches to clearly demonstrate the direct connections between sports and moral behaviour. The aim of this study is to find out if there is a significant difference in the achieved level of moral competence of secondary…
