Abstract

Despite its significance particularly when it comes to writing competence, numerous studies have revealed that grammar is still considered complicated to grasp and used by students. The purpose of this study was to determine how video-based instruction affects students' understanding of grammar in writing assignments. This sequential explanatory mixed-method study aimed to investigate how students' grammatical skills especially in degree of comparison might be improved. Quantitative evaluations such as creating written test materials for the students and qualitative interviews with both teachers and students were employed. The findings showed that students' comprehension of grammatical rules for statistical tests had improved. Descriptive data evidenced that the students were clearly excited, enthralled, and actively involved with the tactics; served as a scaffold to lower obstacles; enhanced language learners' understanding; and increased students' vocabulary. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches evidenced the significance of implementing English videos to promote students’ grammatical competence in writing skills. The study's implications and suggestions are discussed.

Abstract

In the Society 5.0 era, human connections are profoundly influenced by technological advancements, particularly social media. This study explores the impact of these changes on social bonds, emphasizing the balance between connectivity and relationship quality. Using a descriptive survey method, data were gathered from 147 participants through a structured questionnaire. The findings reveal that while digital platforms enhance communication frequency, facilitate long-distance relationships, and broaden cultural understanding, they also present challenges such as reduced face-to-face interactions, dependency on digital tools, and superficial connections. Participants widely recognized the role of technology in creating opportunities for new relationships and sustaining existing ones across distances. However, they also emphasized the enduring value of physical interactions for emotional depth and trust. Moderate levels of agreement regarding digital distractions and technology's role in conflict resolution reflect the complexities of navigating these tools in everyday relationships. The dual nature of technology—as both a connector and a potential disruptor—highlights the need for strategies to promote mindful and balanced usage. This study underscores the importance of fostering digital literacy and encouraging offline engagement to preserve meaningful social bonds. By addressing these dynamics, Society 5.0 can strengthen inclusivity, empathy, and cohesion, ensuring that technological progress aligns with human well-being and authentic connections.

Abstract

This study addresses the "pedagogical digital gap" by proposing a shift from using technology for content delivery ("scanning") to cognitive support ("scaffolding"). It investigates the effectiveness of a QR-Code Integrated Inquiry model on pre-service primary teachers' critical thinking skills. Employing a quasi-experimental design with 60 participants, data were analyzed using ANCOVA. Findings revealed a highly significant difference () between groups. The experimental group achieved a notably higher adjusted mean (57.43) compared to the control group (34.88), with a massive effect size (). The intervention successfully reduced extraneous cognitive load, facilitating deep reasoning consistently across genders and science topics. The study concludes that re-engineering simple technology as scaffolding creates a robust, inclusive learning ecosystem for teacher education

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of integrating online self-regulated learning with virtual labs in enhancing critical thinking skills among STEM students. The research adopted a controlled experimental design involving two groups—experimental and control—over a two-month period, employing a mix of interactive virtual labs and structured online self-regulated learning strategies for the former, while maintaining traditional educational methods for the latter. Results indicated significant improvements in the experimental group's critical thinking capabilities across multiple indicators such as interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference, explanation, and self-regulation, compared to modest improvements in the control group. The experimental group benefited from a dynamic and interactive learning environment that allowed for hands-on experiments and simulations, fostering a deeper understanding and engagement with scientific concepts. This environment, enhanced by the strategic application of self-regulated learning techniques, facilitated a more effective development of critical thinking skills than traditional methods. The study highlighted the potential of virtual labs combined with self-regulated learning to significantly enhance educational outcomes in STEM education, suggesting that such integrative approaches could better prepare students for the complexities of the modern scientific landscape. Additionally, the study underscored the need for future research to explore these strategies across a more diverse and broader educational context to confirm these findings and further refine the educational interventions employed.

Abstract

Addressing the persistent issue of inadequate critical thinking skills among students, this study examines the potential of Virtual Reality (VR) to transform educational practices. Traditional teaching methods often prioritize rote memorization, limiting opportunities for higher-order cognitive processes such as analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. This narrative review synthesizes findings from the past five years, focusing on VR’s ability to enhance thinking skills. Employing a systematic literature search via Scopus, 24 reviewed studies were analyzed, highlighting VR’s immersive and interactive capabilities in fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and engagement. Results indicate that VR surpasses traditional methods by offering experiential learning scenarios, promoting collaboration, and addressing diverse educational needs. Applications in STEM and professional education demonstrate improved cognitive outcomes, including spatial reasoning, decision-making, and retention of abstract concepts. However, challenges such as high costs, infrastructural constraints, and teacher training gaps hinder widespread adoption. Ethical considerations around data privacy and inclusivity further underscore the need for strategic implementation. This study concludes that VR holds transformative potential in education, provided challenges are addressed through targeted investments, interdisciplinary innovations, and inclusive practices. Future research should emphasize long-term studies and integrate emerging technologies like AI and AR to maximize VR’s impact on cognitive skill development.
