The OECD has become a notable predictor of the future needs of society and education. In youth education, the OECD spearheads global strategies, initiatives and recommendations about the curriculum and goals for education. By evoking the sense of 'crisis' in 'traditional education' the OECD functions as a central node of precision education…

Mastering the phonological aspects of a second language (L2) poses significant challenges for adult learners, often affecting their intelligibility in acquiring that language (Derwing, Munro, & Wiebe, 1998). McAllister (1997) has highlighted L2 learners' struggles in perceiving and producing novel segmental features, which is corroborated by…

The purpose of this article is to discuss the complexities of the role and place of students' own gadgets in an innovative university democratic education embedded in a conventional institution. I argue that modern gadgets greatly promote, tacitly shape, and, perhaps paradoxically, severely curb human authorial agency. Gadgets are one of the…

Across development, experience has a strong impact on the way we think and adapt. School experience affects academic and social-emotional outcomes, yet whether differences in pedagogical experience modulate underlying brain network development is still unknown. In this study, we compared the brain network dynamics of students with different…

Over the past numerous years, the training structure is applying outdated strategies that keep schools from moving to competency-based models. Since most of the parts are instructor-oriented, the students are the detached party in the classroom which prompts less communication between students and the instructor. Augmented Reality (AR) is an…

Only one third of adult trainees transfer what they learn merely 1 year after training, and the amount of knowledge applied is less than 40% of what they learned. Transfer of learning becomes more critical for those in train-the-trainer programs where future success or failure is shaped by previous outcomes. Consequences compound even further in…

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in using robots within educational environments due to their potential to augment student engagement and motivation. However, current research has not adequately addressed the effectiveness of these robots in facilitating inclusive learning for diverse student populations, particularly those with…

Pretend play is often hypothesized in a global sense to be an effective context for young children's learning, but there is much still to learn about whether all types of information can be learned equally and whether all types of pretend play are equally beneficial. The present study tests whether preschoolers can learn a simple, novel causal…

The popularity of MOOCs and MOOC platforms prompted some universities to develop their first online courses, while others experimented with the format of existing online offerings. Despite the body of research identifying cognitive, metacognitive, and practical benefits of printed materials, there has been a shift towards an approach that…

This comparative study investigated the effect of supplementing problem-based learning (PBL) with video resources on students' academic achievement in physics, a unit of simple machines. It was carried out in the Ugandan Government and private lower secondary schools. The quasi-experimental design employed a cluster sampling design with 947…

The purpose of this study was to determine what types of play ensure stable progress in executive functions in preschoolers. Experimental design included six study groups according to the type of play: role play (Free Play group, Adult-Directed Play group, Child-Directed Play group), play with rules, digital play, and control group. All groups…

This article explores the evolving role of technology in nonformal and informal adult learning settings, guided by the theory of connectivism. It examines how digital platforms, artificial intelligence (AI), and other technological advancements enhance the accessibility, personalization, and efficiency of adult learning. The various educational…

The purpose of this quantitative ex post-facto study was to determine if differences exist in 4th-grade students' reading and math learning outcomes between co-taught classrooms and traditional classrooms in a Florida public school district. The study was conducted with archival data from the school district's fall and winter progress monitoring…

Previous literature has indicated a lack of information available regarding virtual schooling and how it compares to traditional schooling in terms of the academic achievement of students (Angiello, 2010; Brady, 2012; Dichev, Dicheva, Agre, & Angelova, 2013; Molnar et al., 2019; Molnar, 2021). This study aimed to examine differences among…

The aim of this research was to examine the effectiveness of video feedback in improving the quality of writing components and writing skills using flipped in online class and traditional teaching. The method used in this research was a quasi-experiment by dividing participants into two experimental groups, namely the group that received video…
