With the work done in the process, it was tried to raise awareness about museums and to explain how valuable museums are for a new perspective on education and most importantly for the social studies course. In the study, a 2x2 split-plot mixed design was used. In the quantitative part of the study, dependent and independent variable measurements…

Nowadays, many education programmes claim to evolve according to present and future skills needed for sustainable development, and one of these skills is inventive problem-solving. Systematic-inventive problem solving (SIPS) is a systematic approach to problem-solving derived from engineering, technology, science, mathematics, and general…

A qualitatively oriented mixed methods case study was conducted to investigate the effects of incorporating LEGO robotics into a 7th-grade mathematics curriculum. Using the lenses of Social Constructivist Theory and the Five Stages of Technology Integration, this research focused on the development of proportional reasoning skills. The data show…

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of text lengths on students' vocabulary and to reveal students' opinions about their vocabulary development considering text lengths. This study used exploratory sequential mixed method pattern, which combines quantitative and qualitative data gathering techniques and combines research results.…

The study was carried out to investigate the impact of a digital review tool had on students' grades, learning motivation, and engagement. An exploratory cross-sectional study was accomplished with two groups of students. The Experimental Group was taught using the digital tool FlipQuiz while the Control Group was taught with the conventional…

Purpose: Within the framework of Health Promoting Schools "Up" is an intervention using a whole school approach aimed at promoting mental health by strengthening social and emotional competence among schoolchildren. Social and emotional competence is an integral part of many school-based mental health interventions but only a minority of…

This study aims to examine the improvement of students' written mathematical communication ability in generative learning assisted by teaching aids and discovery learning and describe students' written mathematical communication in terms of self-confidence. The method used in this study is mix-methods. The population in this study were…

The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of video-based mathematics instruction for seven middle school students with specific learning disability (SLD), using an augmented reality-based training package. The dependent variable was the percentage of steps students performed correctly to solve each type of mathematics problem. The…

The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of the FRIENDS for Life program on students' and teachers' emotional outcomes in a school serving a high-poverty population. The focus of the intervention was to train/coach teachers with strategies to develop social and emotional skills for students. A single group, pre/post-test design was used…

With the advent of communicative methodologies, the promise to develop both fluency and accuracy was made as a goal for teaching and learning English as an international language. However, it did not happen (Richards, 2008). In an attempt to equalize students' both semantic and syntactic competence, this study investigates the impact of Swain's…

This study utilized secondary analyses of a randomized controlled trial and investigated the extent to which prestest word identification efficiency, reading fluency, and vocabulary knowledge moderated the effects of an intervention on reading comprehension outcomes for struggling readers in sixth through eighth grades. Given that the experimental…

Behaviors that warrant school discipline (e.g., fighting, victimizing peers) is detrimental to school climate and the learning process. This study examines the effectiveness of preventing school disciplinary incidents in middle school through an experiential, social and emotional learning (SEL) program. A community youth development organization,…

This study investigates the effects of web-based scaffolding in comparison with teacher scaffolding (TS) and no scaffolding (NS) on students' metacognitive skill development in web-search process. The study utilized a static-group pretest--posttest quasi-experimental design. The first experimental group received web-based Internet search…

A mixed methods, action research case study was conducted to investigate the effects of incorporating LEGO robotics into a seventh-grade mathematics curriculum focused on the development of proportional reasoning through the lens of Social Constructivist Theory. This study applied students' prior knowledge of the distance, rate, and time formula…

This dissertation study investigated the relationship of a 1:1 initiative with integrated digital learning teacher professional development and teacher self-efficacy. Proprietary survey data from PivotPoint Business Solutions was used to examine if a relationship existed. Phase 1 data were collected in the fall of 2016, prior to the 1:1…
