This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the IPA KIT teaching aids for earthquakes science KIT in improving students' collaboration skills and creative thinking. The design of this research is a quasi-experimental research with a stratified random sampling technique. This study involved two classes, namely the experimental class (n = 32)…

Instructional materials provide learners with real learning experience. Learners are usually interested in concrete experiences rather than mere talk and chalk mechanism. This study investigated effective utilization of instructional materials in teaching Upper Basic Social Studies in Kwara State, Nigeria. The study adopted the descriptive…

This study investigates how pre-service teachers of English as a foreign language do correction during their initial teaching practice at lower-secondary schools. The study employs multimodal conversation analysis on a dataset of 16 lessons taught by three pre-service teachers in Czechia. The analysis focuses specifically on how the teachers…

This study explored how secondary school EFL teachers engaged in professional learning opportunities when they participated in the development of ELT materials. While increasing research has examined language teaching materials and teacher learning, the two research fields have remained largely disconnected, hindering the potential of materials…

Despite widespread efforts to promote Open Educational Resources (OER) in German K-12 education, their adoption remains relatively low. Previous research has identified common enablers and barriers to OER adoption (i.e., OER (re)use, adaptation, and creation) from an international and intercultural perspective while a hierarchy of such predictors…

Introduction: Professional development can assist individuals in learning a variety of new skills and refining their teaching practice. The purpose of this study was to explore the effectiveness of asynchronous online courses designed to assist individuals in building their Nemeth Code within Unified English Braille (UEB) Contexts skills and…

Over the past decades, researchers have investigated the effects of multimedia design principles to enhance learning. These evidence-based principles are known to enable students to learn from multimedia resources and support cognitive processing. However, it is unclear if and which of these multimedia design principles are implemented in…

The challenge of creating reliable technology-based resources for science learning is a perennial challenge in Philippine education, with limited learning materials accessible to all learners. This study is about the development of a videocast embedded with physics education technology (PhET) simulation that served as supplementary learning…

Over the past decade, schools have adopted videos as a medium to augment positive behavior interventions and support (PBIS) programming. This approach engages various stakeholders in the development and use of PBIS videos. Subsequently, most PBIS videos are created based on existing school data (e.g., office discipline referrals) and expectation…

This study investigated the level of Video-Based Instruction (VBI) competency of Thai EFL teachers through training using the Video-Enhanced Language Teaching (VELT) model and examined their attitudes towards the training using the VELT model. The study group consisted of 30 secondary-level Thai EFL teachers with low VBI competency in Suphanburi…

One core aspect of learning a language is developing vocabulary, an endeavor that requires a structured and principled focus in the classroom. As the EFL textbook has a central position in the language learning classroom, it should have an important role to play in structuring vocabulary development. Yet, what guides decisions concerning the…

Innovative learning media are very important in supporting the learning process, including learning Arabic. Therefore, this study aims to develop video media for learning speaking skills as a medium for learning speaking skills for seventh grade students at MTS Negeri 39 Jakarta. The research was conducted using the Research and Development…

The purpose of this study was to investigate upper elementary (Grades 4-6) and middle school (Grades 6-8) teachers' views of grammar and its instruction and to determine differences in their views about grammar, its instruction, and its importance to writing proficiency. Participants in this online study were 196 practicing teachers in eight…

The use of digital teaching materials is increasing in mathematics teaching. The dynamic resources of these materials have great potential, for example to adapt the content to different teaching methods and different students. These materials also provide new opportunities for the increasing distance learning. However, in order to take advantage…

As more educators integrate their curricula with online learning, it is easier to crowdsource content from them. Crowdsourced tutoring has been proven to reliably increase students' next problem correctness. In this work, we confirmed the findings of a previous study in this area, with stronger confidence margins than previously, and revealed that…
