This paper seeks to gain insights into teachers' perceptions, and readiness to integrate information and communication technology (ICT) tools in mathematics instruction. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving surveys and interviews with a sample of high school mathematics teachers. The study involved 90 mathematics teachers working in…

The study employed a descriptive correlational approach to explore teacher perceptions and preparedness for the inclusion of hearing impaired (deaf and hard of hearing) students in mainstream classrooms in selected public special education schools in Cebu Philippines. Through stratified convenience sampling, the research compared the views of both…

The present study examines Korean high school English teachers' and university students' perceptions about the criterion-referenced assessment of English in CSAT.

Past research suggests that a sense of belonging to a community is developmentally important for adolescents and affects their engagement in school, especially during the transition to high school. However, little research examines the teaching practices that simultaneously foster classroom belonging and behavioral engagement to create a classroom…

As an academic subject taught in schools, history provides infinite opportunities to develop analytical skills, value judgment and expression of creativity. But the actual classroom reality tells a different story. The linear approach to history teaching makes the subject extremely dull, monotonous and burdensome to the students. It is this…

This study investigated the effect of technology-enhanced flipped classroom model applications on high school students' classroom engagement and classroom life perceptions in teaching English. In the study, pretest and posttest experiment-control group quasi-experimental design was used. The experimental group was taught using the flipped method…

There is a popular myth that mathematical creativity is a trait possessed by a small group of people. This is perpetuated by the lack of understanding of what influences mathematical creativity, especially in the classroom. In particular, professional mathematicians often name aesthetic experiences as a critical aspect of their mathematical…

In the present study, the effects of the body language of physical education, Turkish, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Music and Art teachers, which is one of the most determining dimensions among communication skills on students' attitudes towards the lesson were examined.
