Lei, Hao; Chiu, Ming Ming; Wang, Danyi; Wang, Chenxin; Xie, Tongwei – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
This meta-analysis examines the effects of game-based learning (GBL), compared with traditional instructional methods, on the science achievement of students, ranging from primary school to university. Results from the 41 primary studies of 6256 participants showed heterogeneity among effect sizes. The random effects model results showed a…

Arshad, Arniyuzie Mohd; Halim, Lilia; Nasri, Nurfaradilla Mohd – Asia-Pacific Forum on Science Learning and Teaching, 2021
Self-regulated learning (SRL) studies have been widely researched, but there have been insufficient meta-analytical studies concerning the effects of self-regulated learning and achievement in science. This research, therefore, sought to perform a meta-analysis on the effects of self-regulated learning strategies on the achievement of students in…

Emily Paige Driessen – ProQuest LLC, 2023
I conducted a set of four studies to catalogue and examine course elements, including active learning strategies and evidence-based teaching practices, and their influence on student experiences and performance in college biology classes. In the first study, I defined the term "active learning" and catalogued the 300[plus] strategies…

Riopel, Martin; Nenciovici, Lucian; Potvin, Patrice; Chastenay, Pierre; Charland, Patrick; Sarrasin, Jérémie Blanchette; Masson, Steve – Studies in Science Education, 2019
Serious games have become increasingly available to educators. Empirical studies and meta-analyses have examined their impact on learning achievement. However, natural sciences could have a special relation to serious games by their systematic use of quantitative and predictive models that can generate microworlds and simulations. Since no known…

Warfa, Abdi-Rizak M. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2016
A meta-analysis of recent quantitative studies that examine the effects of cooperative learning (CL) on achievement outcomes in chemistry is presented. Findings from 25 chemical education studies involving 3985 participants (N[subscript treatment] = 1,845; N[subscript control] = 2,140) and published since 2001 show positive association between…

Tekbiyik, Ahmet; Akdeniz, Ali Riza – Asia-Pacific Forum on Science Learning and Teaching, 2010
This meta-analysis was performed to determine the overall effectiveness of computer assisted instruction on students' academic achievement in science education from 2001 to 2007 in Turkey. The study reported the results of 65 effect sizes (ES) included in 52 studies. Grand mean for 65 ESs was found to be 1.12. This effect size can be interpreted…
