The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine any correlations between an increase in knowledge from activities which utilize self-paced learning, inquiry-guided learning, and collaborative learning pedagogical strategies and students' intentions to pursue science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and computer science…

A literacy gap is a difference between a person's ability to read for understanding and meaning-making and their anticipated ability to read for their grade level. A larger proportion of males are at least one or more years below grade level in reading ability compared to their female peers. This reading difference is called the gender literacy…

With the rapid development of the Internet and other related technologies, the educational community has come to accept the use of educational technology in the classroom. Its innovation not only transforms teaching techniques but also expands students' channels and resources for learning. This article explores the use of educational technology in…

While bivariate associations between motivation and academic achievement have been soundly established, only a few studies have documented evidence for its incremental predictive role above and beyond other student features related to student achievement, such as intelligence and personality. Moreover, it is not yet clear which motivational…

About four million people living in Turkey or abroad with a Turkish passport enrolled in distance education schools to have the opportunity to complete their compulsory formal education in the spring of 2018-19. The aim of this descriptive study was to determine distance education students' acceptance of online learning systems, their attitudes…

This 2-year longitudinal study compares students' trajectories for perceived teacher-student relationship quality and students' self-efficacy (together discussed as students' school trust) to previously documented teacher-perceived experiences in teacher teams' collective learning processes. The article's main contribution is the reflection in…

This study aims to investigate secondary school students' attitudes and demographic variables (gender, grade level, receiving environmental education, participation in an environmental project' environment and reading books about the environment) that are believed to influence these attitudes. The study was designed using the descriptive survey…

This dissertation examined how the perception of the achievement-emotion of boredom impacted the academic agency of sixth-grade mathematics students. The study for this dissertation was completed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Through an explanatory sequential mixed methods study, sixth-grade mathematics student volunteers from a Midwest middle…

This article explores the importance of embedding Active Exploration teaching approaches within PE lessons and how the provision of differing equipment and divergent learning opportunities can enable choice for students to then 'self-discover' solutions to movement problems. The article showcases how Active Exploration approaches to teaching PE…

Learner agency is a key factor in success with technology-infused Innovative Learning Environments (ILEs). Focussing on informal practices unrelated to the learning agenda (off-task practices) and considered undesirable by students (school--net-conflict), this paper explores how students who experience a school--net-conflict explain their off-task…

This study examined the relationships between motivational beliefs, defined as self-efficacy for self-regulated learning and achievement goals, engagement and academic cheating in the context of learning biology. Gender differences across these variables were also examined and both active and second-party types of cheating were included. Based on…

This study investigated the relationship between learner autonomy (LA) and indirect written corrective feedback (IWCF) in an EFL writing classroom in Vietnam. Forty-one intermediate EFL learners from a class of a foundation writing course volunteered to participate in the study. During the course, the teacher provided IWCF in response to the…

Protocol-guided teaching is a student-centered instruction paradigm in which teachers compose learning protocols in advance to guide students through the entire learning process in an effort to foster in them the capacity for autonomous learning. Effective learning protocols can have a substantial impact on classroom outcomes. The purpose of this…

Out-of-class resources offer a range of opportunities for language learning and teaching. However, teachers' integration of these resources into the Thai EFL context has received limited research attention. This mixed-methods study was conducted to explore how teachers incorporate out-of-class resources in their EFL classrooms, and conduct…

This paper illustrates the integration of the hybrid Problem-Based Learning (PBL) approach in the development of the prototype C[superscript 2]HADAM, a multimedia courseware that is intended for the teaching and learning of the Science subject for form two students in Malaysian secondary schools. The discussion begins with the Constructivist…
