Purpose: This article aims to investigate the impact of the Lesson Study (LS) model on students' mathematics achievement and attitudes toward mathematics. Design/methodology/approach: The study employs a concurrent embedded design, a type of mixed methods design. Within this framework, a quantitative pretest-posttest control group…

The article presents the results of an action research study in which 4th-grade students (aged 10-11) were taught to independently set short-term learning goals and reflect on their implementation by reflecting on their educational experiences. The aim of the study is to investigate and describe the experiences of primary school students in…

Recent studies in psychology emphasize the pivotal roles of adopting a growth mindset to enhance students' motivation and employing effective memory strategies to improve memory performance. This study evaluated the impact of a metacognitive intervention that combined the promotion of a growth mindset with the teaching of efficient learning…

This mixed-method study explored the effect of the flipped classroom model (FCM) on vocabulary learning of young English language learners and their perceptions and experiences about FCM practices. Two intact groups of 4th-grade students in a state primary school in Turkiye were randomly assigned as experimental (N = 32) and control (N = 33)…

Background: A Green school (GS) is one way to attempt to reduce the environmental crisis. Teaching in green schools, which is established on a place-based education (PBE) approach that adopts outdoor and experiential learning, should provide students with a holistic view of the environmental crisis that connects local processes to global…

An A-B-A-B withdrawal design was used to explore the effects of a text-to-speech (TTS) program (Read & Write Gold 11) on reading comprehension scores for two fourth-grade students with learning disabilities in an urban school. For each session, students used the TTS program to read a fourth-grade-level comprehension passage. The number of…

Achieving adequate physical activity is an important health goal that many elementary school students are not meeting during the school day. The physical activity leadership (PAL) Program was designed to provide individually tailored supports to improve the quantity and quality of physical activity in schools, as well as promote improvements in…

The effect of technology on primary students' self-regulated vocabulary learning (SRVL) over time and its dynamic relationship with vocabulary outcomes have been scarcely studied. This quasi-experimental study reports a longitudinal inquiry into the effect of a mobile-assisted self-regulation scheme on primary students' SRVL and the relationship…

Animation is used to increase the interest and engagement of students in the learning environment. Animation is exciting and fun, and using animation, abstract concepts are easy to present, display, and convey to students. Augmented reality, like animation, can help make it easier to understand abstract concepts. In many areas, augmented reality…

This study presents findings from a randomized controlled trial of an afterschool program intended to develop mathematics identity for students from grades 4 and 5 in groups underrepresented in STEM. Mathematics identity refers to the ways that students think about themselves in relation to mathematics and the extent to which they have developed a…
