Abstract

This study aims to determine the needs of teachers at proposed schools using the freedom of learning curriculum to acquire the foundational principles of its curriculum acquisition within the learning, namely critical thinking and adaptive learning. The study's data were obtained using qualitative and quantitative research methodologies, including a scale designed by the researcher to evaluate teachers' needs for students' critical thinking completion through adaptive learning and semi-structured interview forms. The participants were junior high school teachers who taught at phase D (class VII-IX, ages 13- 15) in the total number of 123 people. The data were collected by using likert scale questionnaire and analysed by applying coding and key concepts techniques.  According to the findings, they require a focused revision for the main principles covering; critical thinking (interpretation, analysis, assessment, inferences, evaluation, explanation, self-reflection, inductive reasoning, deductive reasoning) and adaptive learning (students' behaviour, knowledge, achievement, preferences, information resources, navigational structure, trail generation, contents selection, goal selection) on the highly needed level.

Abstract

Pre-service teachers’ attitudes influence their integration of technology into their inclusive practices, yet there is still a lack of research in academia assessing their level of attitudes. This study aimed to design an instrument to measure and investigate pre-service teachers’ attitudes toward integrating technology in inclusive education in Malaysia. One hundred and seventy-nine teacher trainees from a public university in Malaysia participated in this study. Two dimensions were identified through exploratory factor analysis, supported by a strong model fit in confirmatory factor analysis. Convergent validity was also satisfactory. Furthermore, all reliability coefficients exceeded 0.8. The outstanding reliability and validity of the instrument indicated its suitability for evaluating the attitudes of pre-service teachers. The results of the assessment showed that teachers’ attitudes were positive. Pre-service teacher training should be actively strengthened to promote the effective integration of technology in inclusive classroom.

Abstract

Numerous studies have delved into the application of augmented reality (AR) in chemistry education, focusing on specific topics, equipment requirements, and advantages. However, there remains a notable dearth of research examining the evolutionary characteristics of AR in this context. This study, employing bibliometric analysis on 66 articles spanning from 2012 to 2022, reveals that research primarily revolves around pedagogical approaches and AR technology development, particularly in kindergarten to 12th grade (K-12) education. Despite the United States exhibiting the highest publication frequency, there is a significant absence of studies addressing emotions, cognition, and physiological changes. Shedding light on these research gaps, this study underscores the need for further exploration into the cognitive, emotional, and physiological aspects of AR integration in chemistry education. Ultimately, the insights gleaned from this study offer valuable guidance for researchers, educators, and practitioners alike, facilitating the advancement and effective application of augmented reality in chemistry education (ARCE).

Abstract

Although English is an important language for globalization and innovation, Chinese students lack the proficiency in the language, which might be attributed to the lack of engagement. Further, as immersive technologies can enhance learning, this study investigates the perceptions and readiness of integrating metaverse-based blended learning (MBBL) modules in college English curricula. A survey among 380 undergraduate students in southwestern China using a questionnaire was conducted to determine their learning preferences and technological readiness. Findings indicate that students needed more engaging and interactive activities, preferring collaborative and simulative learning environments. Despite limited familiarity with metaverse technologies, students demonstrated technological readiness. Hence, the results suggest that a MBBL to enhance English as a foreign language (EFL) education could be implemented. This study provides empirical evidence to inform the design of a metaverse-based technologies in EFL instruction for innovation in tertiary language pedagogy. Future studies could design such a module for implementation and evaluation.
