Word problems are frequently taught in shallow contexts, where students primarily use procedural knowledge to solve problems and struggle to transfer their learning to real-life situations. This study examines how extra-mathematical knowledge and motivation may enhance the learning process. The study involved 345 fifth-grade students (51.2% male)…

The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SOTL) is a systematic and evidence-based approach to examining teaching and improving learning that is openly shared. In the summer and fall of 2024, the National Academies Global Forum on Innovation in Health Professional Education held a public workshop series exploring current and future applications of…

Philosophical inquiry and creative arts have been developed in schools to support students' development of critical thinking skills and empathy, both linked to greater well-being. In such practices, students are often assessed on a final production and not enough on their learning process, leading them to adapt their responses to produce the…

Construction planning is vital to civil engineering projects, involving task coordination, resource estimation, and risk assessment. Traditional educational methods in Engineering management courses frequently lack real-world feedback, hindering understanding of students. To bridge this gap, this study aims to propose an educational approach…

Flipped classroom pedagogy, primarily focused on in-person classroom settings, emphasizes pre-class independent learning where students engage asynchronously with online materials and self-assessments. However, traditional pre-class learning methods, such as watching pre-recorded instructional videos and completing multiple-choice…

Purpose: This study examines undergraduates' perceptions of the effectiveness of two metacognitive monitoring strategies, active comprehension monitoring (ACM) and audible elaborative rehearsal (AER), for gaining specialized vocabulary and concept (SVC) knowledge in communication sciences and disorders. Method: The participants were 64…

Recent research highlights that external feedback alone does not lead to improvements unless students process and use it internally, emphasising the need to shift from a teacher-centred to a student-centred approach. While previous studies have underscored the importance of students generating feedback for their own use and explored effective…

The rise of technological advancements and the pandemic have made distance education increasingly prevalent, demanding high levels of self-regulation. This research addresses the integration of three core developmental regulation models of lifespan development and the motivators proposed by self-determination theory. Although regulation models are…

Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have become one of the highly accepted sources of online teaching and learning these days. Even though MOOCs have gotten wider popularity, its efficacy in teaching and learning is an ongoing topic of discussion. The narrative review in this paper provided the detailed insights of the effectiveness and the…

Although the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) has continued to evolve as a field, building and sustaining SoTL within educational institutions remains challenging. Through interviews with 18 SoTL scholars, we sought to examine the question, "How do individuals and institutions sustain SoTL?" Our findings highlighted the…

Background: ChatGPT, a generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) chatbot, has gained significant traction as a tool for supporting students learning. Despite its growing popularity, there is still no academic consensus on its effectiveness in enhancing students' academic achievement. Objectives: This study aims to explore the effect of ChatGPT on…

This paper demonstrates that recurrent difficulties students encounter in learning subject-matter knowledge can be traced, in part, to assumptions about how students best learn knowledge that significantly shape instructional approaches. First, I review the significant influence of empiricist epistemological assumptions on education, covering…

Any teaching method may have both strengths and weaknesses concerning student learning outcomes. The current study investigated the moderating roles of student dispositions in the relationship between instructional activity and science literacy performance based on data from the Program of International Student Assessment (PISA) 2015. Using…

Research on engineering practice and its relationship with engineering education is getting increased attention in the engineering education literature recently. In this article, we present a study of engineering practice in an electrical power utility company that focused specifically on the learning practices of professional engineers. Through…

Recently, with the advancement in 2D imaging techniques and 3D visual sensors such as LiDAR, RGB-D cameras, etc. The use of 2D and 3D data is ubiquitous in various fields like autonomous driving, AR, and VR. Therefore, we are faced with an ever-increasing demand for approaches toward the automatic processing and analysis of data from multiple…
