Abstract

The increasing emphasis on literacy and numeracy requires assessment tasks that reflect real-world contexts. However, existing studies indicate that contextual assessment is often implemented at a superficial level, with limited use of second-order contextualization that supports deeper reasoning. This study aims to systematically examine how context is used in the design of literacy and numeracy-based assessments. This research employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of 17 articles published between 2015 and 2025. Bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer and content analysis were conducted to examine context types, context levels (zero, first, and second order), and question design. The findings show that most studies apply context at the zero and first-order levels, while only a few reached second-order contextualization. Context use is dominated by local settings, with contexts such as tourism remaining underexplored. In addition, digital technology is mostly used in non-interactive formats. This study recommends developing PISA-based questions in tourism contexts at the second-order level, as well as integrating interactive digital technology to enhance students’ abilities to formulate, employ, and interpret. This study contributes theoretically by linking context type, context level, and cognitive processes within mathematical literacy frameworks, and practically by guiding the design of more authentic assessment tasks.

Abstract

This study analyses the edited volume Innovative Learning Environments in STEM Higher Education, edited by Jungwoo Ryoo and Katherine Winkelmann (2021), in the context of advancing innovative learning practices in STEM higher education. This article employs a descriptive-critical book review approach to examine the book, focusing on its conceptual contribution, practical relevance, contextual applicability, organisation, and critical limitations. The book consists of several chapters, each discussing different innovations in STEM learning, such as adaptive learning, multimodal learning, cross-reality (XR), and artificial intelligence (AI). The results reveal that the book emphasises a shift from teacher-centred to more student-centred learning by incorporating several innovative strategies, such as adaptive learning, multimodal learning, cross-reality (XR), and artificial intelligence (AI). In addition, the book outlines key implementation challenges, including constraints in infrastructure, institutional preparedness, and educators’ competencies. Nevertheless, the discussion is largely focused on theoretical perspectives rather than practical applications and predominantly reflects experiences from developed countries, thereby limiting its relevance to developing contexts. Overall, the book offers valuable theoretical insights into contemporary trends in innovative learning; however, further empirical and context-specific research is needed to enhance its practical applicability in diverse educational settings.
