Although learning analytics dashboards (LADs) are being recognized as tools that can enhance engagement--a crucial factor for the success of asynchronous online higher education--their impact may be limited without a solid theoretical basis for motivation. Furthermore, the processes through which students make decisions using dashboards and engage…

The increasing screen time and digital distractions in modern education have underscored the need for innovative approaches to early childhood learning that reconnect children with the natural world. This study investigates the integration of cooperative learning methods in nature within the "Mathematics and Environmental Exploration"…

Background: Online collaborative learning has been broadly applied in the field of higher education. Nevertheless, not all types of collaborative learning can produce the desired learning results. Objectives: To facilitate online collaborative learning, the present study proposed an innovative artificial intelligence-enabled group cognitive…

To adapt to medical school, students need to change their approaches to learning and study. Transformative learning through critical reflection on disorienting learning experiences supports perspective change to direct new activity. We explored how portfolio meetings support changes in students' perspectives towards learning and study during the…

This paper presents the development of a participatory digital platform designed to promote nature-based experiences for children aged 0 to 3 years. The project responds to the growing reduction of young children's opportunities to engage with nature in their daily lives, despite the critical role such experiences play in early development.…

As virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) continue to become popular, there remains a noticeable gap in understanding their potential for enriching science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning among K-12 students. To address this knowledge gap, this study systematically reviewed 117 articles published from 2010 to…

Background: This study examined students' perceptions of STEM camp experience to gauge whether their participation in an industry-focused STEM camp fostered their familiarity with post-secondary education and facilitated an interest in pursuing STEM-related careers. Related literature points to a lack of experiential learning opportunities with…

What are some of the most common myths about teaching and learning? Renowned educator Thomas R. Rosebrough debunks ten popular beliefs and offers principles that will have a bigger impact in the classroom. The principles center on teaching for learners, not only to meet their academic needs but to transform their lives. The ten myths explore…

A wide variety of gamification tools are available for language learning; however, few studies have explored the impact of Flippity-Connecto (hereafter referred to as Connecto) on learners' cognitive and affective processes. Connecto, a game similar to Tic-Tac-Toe, was designed to assist students in learning English as a foreign language (EFL).…

This study investigates the heterogeneity in the effects of a Learning Analytics Dashboard (LAD) intervention, which provides personalized feedback messages, across a diverse population of learners. Specifically, it evaluates the impact of the LAD on learners' total material usage and final grades, considering variables such as age, sex, prior…

Mastery learning -- requiring students to achieve proficiency in a topic before advancing -- is a well-established and effective teaching method. Digital learning systems support this approach by personalizing content sequences, enabling students to focus on practicing topics they have not yet mastered. To achieve this, digital learning systems…

The present study is a combination of qualitative and quantitative research in order to determine the impact on virtual teaching and learning methods, particularly in technical courses. The research is an attempt to demonstrate that the tools, practices, methodology, and so on that have been used are ineffective for technical courses because they…

Traditional approaches to intelligence often neglect the diverse cognitive profiles of learners, potentially limiting the inclusivity and effectiveness of educational practices. This review article examines the application of Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences (MI) within the context of biology education, with a particular focus on…

This study examined the improvement of mathematical problem-solving skills and learning motivation among students taught using the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model assisted by Augmented Reality (AR). It also investigated the interaction between the learning model and students' ability levels to enhance these skills and motivation. A…

Many students are finishing secondary school without the essential mathematical skills needed to participate in social activities. Research in mathematics education has been investigating the phenomenon of persistent low achievement in mathematics learning from various perspectives, including cognitive, affective, and social ones. Each perspective…
