The study aimed to investigate the dynamics of e-textile-supported STEAM activities, specifically focusing on the design and development process of e-textile projects. A professional development (PD) program with seven hands-on and design-based activities was developed and implemented in two camps involving 20 and 19 in-service science teachers.…

Composing narrative text is complex, requiring development of knowledge of genre specific and general writing knowledge, and the ability to sequence and convey real or imagined experiences, reactions, and an effective ending. Teachers, however, typically do not receive adequate professional learning needed for effective instruction in narrative…

This paper shares data from a longitudinal study into secondary performing arts teachers' perceptions of their first five years of teaching.

Drawing upon research in psychology, arts, and mathematics…

This research aims to develop a STEAM-based e-module containing critical and independent reasoning characters. The method used in this study is Research and Development (R&D). The validation of e-modules is assessed based on three aspects, including aspects of content, construction, and language. The experts who validated each aspect consisted…

Background: Recent research has demonstrated the potential of mobile-assisted learning to enhance learners' learning outcomes. In contrast, the learning processes in this regard are much less explored using eye tracking technology. Objective: This systematic review study aims to synthesise the relevant work to reflect the current state of eye…
