Abstract

This study was aim at analyzing the notion of quality teaching expected of teachers as reflective practitioners, which are continuously articulated during workshops, conferences, however, its practicality seems vaguely defined and at times, reflection seems to lose its purpose and value. The study engaged a descriptive survey which used stratified sampling technique which understudies 363 Primary School Teachers in Fiji from the four major Education Divisions, in which each stratum was selected. A ‘Test on Knowledge of Reflective Teaching,’ and a ‘Rating Scale on Practice of Reflective Teaching’ were conducted and analysed to compare the components of Knowledge and Practice of Reflective Teaching, with respect to teaching experience, and the data was analysed quantitatively using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Fndings from the study amongst others is that there is a significant difference in knowledge which focus on practical aspects’ component of knowledge of reflective teaching for primary mathematics teachers in Fiji.

Abstract

This study examined exposure to creative arts, recreational activities, and free play as correlates of creative skills development among primary school pupils in Uyo metropolis of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. The study adopted the correlational survey research design. The population of the study comprised all primary two pupils. The sample for this study consisted of 500 primary two pupils. The study adopted the multistage random sampling technique to draw samples for the study. The instrument used for data collection was designed by the researchers and named Creative Arts, Recreational Activities, Free Play, and Creative Skills Development Questionnaire (CARAFPCSDQ). The instrument was pilot tested for reliability with an index of 0.81. Three research questions were asked, and three hypotheses tested at 0.05, level of significance. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics of frequency count and simple percentage to answer research questions while Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC) was used to test the hypotheses at 0.05, level of significance. The results showed that primary school pupils are exposed to creative arts, recreational activities, and free play. The result also showed a significant relationship between exposure to creative arts, free play, and creative skills development among primary school pupils. The study, however, found no significant relationship between recreational activities and creative skills development of primary school pupils. Based on the findings of the study, recommendations were made among which are, government should train and post more creative arts teachers to schools. Parents and teachers should create more time and an enabling environment for pupils to engage in free play at home and in school.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the trend of interactive e-module usage in Ecology learning and identify the gap between students' needs and experiences of using them. The research method used a mixed-method research design by combining Systematic Review and quantitative descriptive method, reinforced by student needs questionnaire data. The results of the study indicate that students' needs and interests in interactive e-modules are in the high category, especially for visual and interactive learning media. However, the experience of using interactive e-modules is still relatively low. This finding indicates a gap between students' needs and the implementation of e-modules in Ecology learning. Therefore, the development and implementation of interactive e-modules that are appropriate to students' needs need to be optimized to support more effective Ecology learning.

Abstract

This study aimed to develop and validate the quality of a multiple-choice instrument for measuring fifth-grade elementary students' understanding of kinetic-to-electrical energy conversion concepts within a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) framework. The research employed a Design and Development Research (DDR) approach with systematic instrument development procedures comprising: literature review and blueprint development, item construction, expert validation, field testing with 28 fifth-grade students, and comprehensive psychometric analysis. The instrument consists of 20 multiple-choice items covering three knowledge dimensions: conceptual (5 items), procedural (10 items), and applicative (5 items). Content validity was established through expert review by three science education specialists, yielding a Content Validity Index (CVI) of 0.87. Item analysis revealed difficulty indices ranging from 0.35 to 0.85 (predominantly moderate difficulty) and discrimination indices ranging from 0.30 to 0.75 (good to excellent discrimination). Reliability analysis using Cronbach's alpha produced a coefficient of 0.82, indicating high internal consistency suitable for elementary school assessment contexts. The instrument demonstrates satisfactory psychometric properties aligned with standards for elementary science assessment and effectively integrates STEAM pedagogical approaches.
