Using two different methods of instruction--traditional and interactive--this study aims to investigate the effects of the interactive whiteboard on classroom interaction, student achievement, and student attitudes. Drawing…

A quasi-experimental research design was conducted to investigate the impact of performance-based assessment (PBA) on pre-service teachers' (PSTs) self-efficacy and academic achievement in general physics at Atebubu College of Education. The study was conducted on 144 primary education students in the second year who were assigned into…

This paper evaluates the impact of a video versus text-based instructional method on student learning with an underutilized quasi-experimental research design. Using the regression point displacement design, one of nine online classrooms was randomly assigned to receive video instruction versus eight classrooms that were allocated to text-based…

The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of Technology-Assisted Learning (TAL) and Project-Based Learning (PjBL) approaches upon students' attitudes toward mathematics and their academic achievements. A quasi-experimental research design was employed including pre-tests, post-tests and a retention test. The findings of the research…

This study provided an in depth look at the benefits to the explicit teaching of an effective reading strategy, text annotation. A quasi-experimental research design study evaluated the effectiveness of the use of text annotation on sixth-grade students' reading and social studies achievement and overall reading confidence. The participants in…

STEM education is a crucial learning area to understand important concepts and gain 21st-century skills in different disciplines, explore scientific knowledge, and solve problems in daily life.

The study adopted a quasi-experimental research design. The sample consisted of 97 eighth-grade students enrolled in Sarah Umm Ishaq Basic Education School in the Al…

The combination of education and robots is becoming an increasingly important issue. Although researchers have conducted some studies on educational robotics in STEM education at the undergraduate level, no research examined the effects of gamified educational robotics on participants' motivation and creativity. Therefore, this study examines the…

The present study explored the impact of flipped classroom on English as a foreign language (EFL) students' global writing performance and writing complexity, accuracy, and fluency (CAF) through a quasi-experimental research design. In so doing, two intact classes were selected from an Iranian university as the participants of the study and they…

Research has revealed that learning, especially in the field of science, is strongly affected by various factors. These factors include students' attitudes towards the subject matter, and the manner in which the subject is taught. Given their close linkage to students' achievement, attitudes are relevant component in science learning. However,…

This study aims to investigate how social media tools, in other words social network services (SNS), affects the success of Japanese language learners in learning Japanese culture in undergraduate programs. For this research, a mixed method approach was used with a quantitative, quasi-experimental research design including a pre-test-post-test…

This study explored the relative effectiveness of generic versus specific reflection prompts on engineering students' academic performance and engagement with four scales (i.e., behavioral, emotional, social, cognitive). The sample consisted of 208 engineering students in two sections of a required first-year engineering course. By using a…

The study aimed to investigate the relationship between verbal and mathematical intelligences, visual and auditory learning styles and students' achievements, as well as the impact of verbal and mathematical intelligences, and visual and auditory learning styles on students' achievements. A non-equivalent control group post-test-only…

Many institutions of higher education offer research opportunities for undergraduates, but community college students often do not get to benefit from this high-impact educational practice. There are several reasons for this problem, including that community college faculty and students have limited time availability for research and the mission…

This study examined the effect of YouTube audio-visual documentaries (YAVDs) on students' achievement and interest in History in Enugu state, Nigeria.
