Training in chemistry is essential for undergraduate medical students; however, at the National University of Colombia, basic chemistry courses are associated with high fail rates and low academic performance with regard to first semester students, especially in vulnerable special admission populations. A longitudinal study was carried out via…

This study examines the collective labor of imagining one educational world among myself and six middle-income, racially- and gender-diverse six- and seven year-olds via a two-year critical participatory ethnography of a six-family (including my own) pandemic cooperative--Fake School, as the kids playfully named it. Fake School was initially a…

Several educational mapping techniques include mind mapping, concept mapping, knowledge mapping and competence mapping. This research used pedagogically informed competence maps featuring subject matter and learner capabilities. Mytelemap, a prototype tool, helps learners structure and visualise competence maps and provides study links based on…

This mixed-method study examined the effect of Lightboard videos on student learning and perceptions in a Flipped Classroom Model (FCM). The study targeted 68 civil engineering undergraduate students at a 4-year public university in Southeastern USA. Lightboard videos were intentionally alternated between two consecutive semesters. Within the same…

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the academic impact of a technology-based instructional module for content vocabulary instruction in the Project Lead the Way (PLTW) Introduction to Engineering course. The goal of the study was to answer two key questions: (1) How does implementing a technology-based instructional module impact…

The purpose of this study is to determine how students' academic achievement in English lessons improved when the layered flipped learning model is used in these lessons and what the students' views about the tasks chosen and performed within the scope of this model are. One of the qualitative research methods, the 'action research' method was…

This study aimed to explore the effectiveness of learning the Chinese Proficiency Test (HSK) 1 reading course through the Udemy platform and assess the learner's satisfaction with learning the Chinese course on the Udemy platform. The participants were 30 zero-foundation learners with minimal exposure to basic Chinese expressions and were randomly…

As new technologies become available, they are often embraced in educational innovation to enhance traditional instruction. The flipped teaching model is one of the most recent and popular technology-infused teaching models in which learning new concepts takes place at home while practice is conducted in the classroom. The purpose of this study…

The impact of Augmented Reality (AR)-based science learning on cognitive development has been established, but the effect of AR on the improvement of students' academic performance remains inconclusive. Additionally, while epistemic beliefs as a significant determinant on student learning outcomes is well-documented, there is little research in…

The Game Play and Design Framework is a project-based instructional method to engage teachers and students with mathematics content by utilizing technology as a vehicle for game play and creation. In the authors' prior work, they created a technology tool and game editing platform, the Wearable Learning Cloud Platform (WLCP), which enables…

The COVID-19 pandemic led to a shift in education that necessitated that teachers adapt how they educate and communicate with their students. Previous researchers examined general education teachers' experiences transitioning to online teaching but did not establish how alternative teachers and the at-risk students they taught were affected. The…

The aim of mobile learning (M-learning) is to overcome traditional constrictions of education such as the place and the time at which learning occurs. M-learning has been investigated in many areas; however, the impact of M-learning on graduate international students and their experiences have not yet been investigated. The research aims to answer…

Similar to all stages of education, the use of the flipped classroom model continues to become more widespread in higher education. This paper aimed to provide insights from a pre-test and post-test experimental design-based exploration of the effects of clicker-aided flipped classroom model on learning achievement, Physics anxiety and students'…

The academic achievement gap, particularly for at-risk students in urban school districts, needs to be addressed and met head on with a plan. That plan is identified as a school-based mentoring program. The purpose of this research study is to examine the impact and effect a school based mentoring curriculum has on at-risk students in an urban…

This comparative study aimed to investigate the effects of an Augmented-Reality Game-Based Learning application, "StemUp," on the English learning performance and motivation of distinct rural and urban groups of young EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners. Multiple sources of data collection were employed, including pre- and…
