Higher education (HE) is considered to be the apex of all educational endeavours. Therefore, it is expected that student in various institutions of higher learning should be self-motivated for individualized synchronous and asynchronous learning. Lamentably, it seems that such expectation within the HE spaced is yet to be achieved. While…

This study examines the impact of constructivist methods on students' performance in mathematical problem-solving, which is a significant issue in contemporary educational research. Traditional teaching methods, which are often oriented towards rote learning and memorization, have limitations in increasing students' performance in solving…

This study explores the identification of discourse communities within mathematics education using factor analysis. Given the exponential growth in mathematics education research, understanding the evolving dialogues within the field has become increasingly challenging. This study employs a systematic literature review, examining the landscape of…

Biochemistry lab classes help students connect theory to real-world applications and develop practical, collaborative, and higher-order thinking skills. However, many students are unprepared, spending class time on protocols and equipment instead of higher-order learning. To improve preparation, digital gamified modules were created to replace…

The intersecting crises of 2020 had profound impacts on disabled young children. Existing literature has centered on the challenges disabled children faced and the interventions they needed. Few studies have offered counternarratives that showcase their critical insights, playful interactions, or relational meaning making. In this qualitative case…

Background: This mixed-method, controlled quasi-experimental study aimed to examine the effects of metaverse-based English as a foreign language (EFL) instruction on high school students' listening skills and self-determination levels. The lessons, which were designed based on social constructivist theory, were implemented for a total of 8 weeks…

Interdisciplinarity is essential in a world that requires innovative, collaborative, and holistic approaches to address complex social problems. This paper presents evaluative findings from a study of women doctoral students who participated in a two-day interactive program to bolster interdisciplinary practice. Qualitative data were collected…

In this article, I argue that critical discourse in Mezirow's theory of transformative learning is a constructionist, ontological act that serves to support an individual's critical reflection, which, in turn, is a constructivist, epistemological act. The notion of onto-epistemology is helpful in bringing to the fore the entanglement of these two…

Traditional reviews of arts education have focused on why the arts are valuable for learning, but the arts' contributions to cross-disciplinary discourse remain undertheorized. In this article, we provide a theoretical review of the arts and learning to suggest a new way of thinking about how the arts contribute to learning across disciplines…

Purpose: The study discusses the importance of workplace learning in the current era of work and how organisations are shifting their focus toward employee learning and development. It highlights the need for employees to continuously up-skill themselves to keep up with the demand for skills. The purpose of this study is to introduce a modern…

Purpose: The purpose of this essay is the provision of a conceptual approach for a manager-as-coach to use for instructional purposes with an employee. Using scenistic materials (cases, incidents, stories), the aim of the essay is to assist the practitioner apply a practical and relatively adaptable instructional approach. While it is intended for…

Vocabulary plays a significant role in the learning process of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students, especially undergraduates who need to read academic materials and listen to specialized lectures in English. However, retaining lexical items is still a challenging task for many EFL learners. The current study seeks to examine the…

Undergraduates' first-year experience in engineering education impacts their retention and persistence. Strategic learning strategies (i.e. skill, will, and self-regulation) are important for students' academic achievement and retention. We examined to what extent (1) students' skill mediated the relationship between self-regulation and will and…

This paper examines differences between Bakhtin's dialogic view and argumentation theories with respect to questioning and analyzes the significance of these differences for the theories of pedagogy. In argumentation theories, a question is thought to be shared among the parties in a discussion. In the fields of argumentation and education, in…

While we argue that difference and diversity are essential elements of the education process, we keep one area an utterly separate area: Special education. This area is left as a mysterious closed box with many undiscovered differences. While it is clear that there is behavioral pressure on special education, there are also opinions that claim the…
