This article investigates the impact of integrating authentic and contextualized activities into teaching on students' knowledge construction, grounded in social constructivism principles. The research focuses on applying the real-project approach within a "Mini-Project Workshop" module for third-year Information Systems Development…

This article investigates the effectiveness of a newly developed online tool for assessing and improving the design and accessibility of Learning Management System (LMS) sites in Higher Education. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative data. Results from 25 subject coordinators and 3 peer…

Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) is embarking on an educational innovation program called SUTD campusX to support its future of education. SUTD campusX aims to innovate new educational models, technology tools, and pedagogies for a new form of learning called "Cyber-Physical Learning", where the concept is that both…

This study explored factors affecting variability in second language (L2) learning motivation among Korean university students and how they appraised their L2 learning experience. In this study, 85 undergraduate students majoring in English or English education from three universities in Seoul, South Korea, reflected on their past English learning…

This anthology discusses the necessity of an expanded notion of lifelong learning. Expanded lifelong learning means providing consistent and inter-connected preconditions for learning in all life contexts, both individually and collectively. Expanding the concept of lifelong learning means to provide conducive preconditions for learning,…

With the development of information and communication technology, project-based learning (PBL) has become an important pedagogical approach. Group leaders are critical in PBL, and prestige influences learner leadership. Regulation affects learners' prestige, but research on their relationship is lacking. Through content analysis and epistemic…

Second language acquisition theory has traditionally focused on the cognitive and psycholinguistic processes involved in additional language (L2) learning. In addition, research on learner psychology has primarily centered on learners' cognitive abilities (e.g., aptitude and working memory) and internal traits or states (e.g., dispositions,…

Despite the existence of many studies on language learning strategies (LLS), little scholarly work reports the LLS used by multilingual foreign language learners. To fill this empirical gap, the present qualitative case study investigates how polyglots employed their strategies over their path of learning multiple foreign languages. We collected…

New information that is compatible with pre-existing knowledge can be learned faster. Such schema memory effect has been reported in declarative memory and in explicit motor sequence learning (MSL). Here, we investigated if sequences of key presses that were compatible to previously trained ones, could be learned faster in an implicit MSL task.…

While statistical learning is often studied individually, its collective representation through self-other integration remains unclear. This study examines dynamic self-other integration and its multi-brain mechanism using simultaneous recordings from dyads. Participants (N = 112) each repeatedly responded to half of a fixed stimulus sequence with…

Purpose: This study aims to examine the impact of gamification on the five dimensions of meaningful learning (i.e. cooperative, active, authentic, constructive and intentional learning) and undergraduate student performance taking online lessons. Design/methodology/approach: Therefore, the authors conducted an experiment among undergraduate…

The purpose of this study is to analyze in depth the relevance of Vygotsky's constructivism learning theory in differentiated learning in elementary schools. Differentiated learning is an effort to adapt the learning process in the classroom to meet the learning needs of each individual. This adjustment is made by considering the interests,…

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of combining Collaborative Learning (CL) and Task-Based Learning Teaching (TBLT) in enhancing vocational students' analytical reading ability and writing skills. Method: Conducted at a vocational college in southern China, the study involved 192 students divided into an experiment group (n=25)…

Continuous improvement is the process of making incremental changes to systems or processes to improve outcomes. The purpose of this dissertation was to conduct a study to learn how continuous improvement might serve as a vehicle for further conceptualizing profound learning theory at the individual learner level. The research began with a…

Even before the inception of the term "learning analytics," researchers globally had been investigating the use of various feedback systems to support the self-regulation of participation and promote equitable contributions during collaborative learning activities. While some studies indicate positive effects for distinct subgroups of…
