In recent years, collaboration between faculty and schools has widely drawn attention in teacher education. However, little is currently known about the impact of faculty-school collaboration on pre-service teacher (PST) learning in the field of ELT. For this purpose, this study aims to investigate PSTs' insights of the English Fest event in terms…

During COVID-19, universities are reconfiguring learning environments and increasing flexibility in course offerings. Teachers have found synchronous hybrid teaching challenging with many students preferring online to in-person classroom attendance. Understanding students' decision-making as to where, when and how they choose to learn will be…

Research on self-directed learning practices has ascertained various potential benefits of learner achievement. As mobile technology offers highly practical and portable usage for self-directed learning, studies on language learning practices through technology-based applications have become prevalent among adult learners. This study aimed to…

Internships have largely been used as an effective hands-on learning tool, exposing college students to an array of occupational skills and expectations in hopes of creating prepared individuals for the workforce. Developing a better understanding of recent intern perceptions about their lived experience could help to construct a deeper…

This article revisits the role of cognitive individual differences in creating synergies between second language (L2) writing and second language acquisition research that were proposed by Kormos (2012). It takes stock of the advances in research findings, in the past decade, on the role of working memory and language learning aptitude in L2…

The objective of this article is to analyse the development and content of research in the global literature on student agency in higher education (SAHE) based on a bibliometric review of 224 articles published in the Scopus database during the period 2000-2022. VOSviewer, Excel, and Tableau software were used to analyse the texts. The review…

Purpose: This study examines how professional technicians' teaching styles and students' learning readiness affect cooking skills performance in culinary inheritance. Design/methodology/approach: This study constructed a learning performance model from the situated cognition perspective using a sample of students at universities and vocational…

We have investigated the temporal patterns of algebra (N = 606) and calculus (N = 507) introductory physics students practicing multiple basic physics topics several times throughout the semester using an online mastery homework application called science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fluency aimed at improving basic physics…

The study aims to examine student emotions and behavior in a Gamified Learning Environment (GLE) in detail. In the study, in order to reveal the behavior (dynamics) and feelings (emotions) that emerge within the framework of the mechanics applied in the GLE process, it is within the scope of the main objectives of the study to determine how…

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed education. In these circumstances, technology aided learning by providing new ways of teaching and communicating with students. In this work, we report the online activities carried out in the Basic Organic Chemistry virtual course of the Chemistry Department at UNS (Argentina) for first-year students of the…

Recent research emphasizes the need for a more sustained interaction of schools with universities and research institutions. For example, informal after-school programs integrated into the school curriculum can provide opportunities for meaningful interaction with researchers in active learning settings. At the physics department of University of…

This study aims to investigate why the Thai EFL learners at Nakhon Si Thammarat Rajabhat University (NSTRU) cannot speak English fluently and examine the internal factors that demotivate them from speaking English either in class or in daily life situations. To achieve these objectives, 316 male and female learners were randomly selected to…

Digestion is a fundamentally important process for an individual's life. However, the physical process of digestion is hidden inside the body, making it challenging to understand and a particularly difficult topic for students to learn in the classroom. Traditional approaches to teaching body processes include a mixture of textbook teaching and…

In 1996, the Chemistry Department at Norwich University converted its two-semester General Chemistry course from a traditional lecture to a Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) classroom. The change to POGIL teaching in Norwich General Chemistry classes was brought about by a steady decline in student performance, as demonstrated by…

To adults entering a Montessori classroom for the first time, the activities they observe may not seem particularly academic. Depending on the students' ages, children might be found working independently, having spirited discussions in small groups, or working on long-term projects. Inconspicuous teachers observe and take notes or give lessons to…
