Abstract

The present study investigates the self-efficacy (SE) of education students concerning their understanding of educational materials and mathematical problem-solving skills. SE, a crucial motivational construct, plays a vital role in academic achievement and cognitive development. The research employed a quantitative approach, utilizing a structured questionnaire to collect data from 155 mathematics education students and 67 biology education students. The questionnaire using a Likert-type scale comprised two main sections: one assessing SE beliefs related to understanding educational materials and the other focusing on SE beliefs associated with mathematical problem-solving. The data analysis was performed using descriptive and inferential statistical methods, including correlation analysis and independent t-tests by JASP 0.16.3.0. The findings provide valuable insights into the SE of education students in the context of different disciplines. The study reveals the overall SE levels of mathematics and biology education students in understanding educational materials and mathematical problem-solving are moderate level. There is no significant relationship between the SE of mathematics and biology education students in understanding materials and mathematical problem-solving. However, there are significant differences in SE for both understanding materials and mathematical problem-solving between the two groups. The implications of these findings for instructional practices are discussed.

Abstract

Despite its recognized importance, the role of critical thinking (CRIT) in promoting authentic problem-solving (APS), collaborative learning (COL), creative thinking (CRET), and knowledge creation efficacy (KCE) in different regional contexts still needs to be investigated. This study uses partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) and partial least squares-multi group analysis (PLS-MGA) to evaluate the effect of CRIT on these skills and compare the effect between municipality and regency, using data from 431 high school students in Indonesia. The Ranger algorithm identified the main predictors of the impact of CRIT on the other skills. The findings revealed that CRIT significantly improved the impacts of these skills, with no significant differences between regions. The ability to provide sound reasoning and consider diverse perspectives were the main predictors. This study contributes to the relatively under-attended area of CRIT in Indonesian education by highlighting its important role in skills development.

Abstract

While the challenges student-athletes face in balancing academics and sports have garnered increasing attention, few studies have explored how factors like hope and grit contribute to this balance and enhance motivation. This study investigated the relationship between hope, grit, and motivation of academic and sports of student-athletes. A total of 247 student-athletes of Mindanao State University-Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT) answered a set of questionnaires assessing grit, dispositional hope, and student-athletes motivation towards sports and academics with the age range of 18-24 years old. Ethical approval was gained from the participants. The results showed that factors of hope (agency and pathways) and grit (consistency of interest or COI and perseverance of effort or POE) were significant predictors of motivation in sports and academics. This suggests that student-athletes with higher levels of hope and grit demonstrate increased motivation in both domains. These results could offer a more valuable insights for coaches, educators, and sports psychologist striving to support the long-term success and wellbeing of student-athletes.

Abstract

This systematic review aims to summarize the technological resources for teaching and learning about computational thinking (CT) in physics and provide suggestions to conduct new studies in future research. A total of 22 academic articles on CT in physical learning were reviewed from 2012 to 2022. The number of research participants was 3,269, with details of 2,752 college students, 439 high school students, 32 junior high school students, 20 elementary students, 21 teachers, and five librarians. This study confirmed that research on CT in physical learning has been dominated by two countries, the United States and Indonesia. Over the past 10 years, there has been an increase in physics courses focusing on topics in kinematics, force and motion, and electricity. The common method practices are quantitative and qualitative, with some developing learning. The implications of this research can inform education experts, educators, and technologists interested in the CT environment and technological development in physics learning. Computational skills in physics have the potential to improve cognitive, affective, and psychomotor outcomes, including students’ thinking abilities. Students can benefit from their experience learning physics using the concept of CT because they can solve technology-based problems and develop various competencies needed in learning physics.

Abstract

The responsibility of mathematics teachers to accept technology into their instructional delivery has been a must know knowledge as professional development of Ghanaian teachers is ongoing to welcome the new standard-based curriculum by the end of 2024 at the senior high schools. This study investigated how conventional pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) influences the adoption and perceived utility of technology among mathematics teachers. Conducted with 979 mathematics teachers purposefully sampled from senior high schools in the Ashanti region of Ghana, the study employed structural equation modeling (SEM) to analyze the relationship between technology knowledge (TK), PCK, and perceived technology usefulness (PTU). The findings indicated a direct relationship between TK and PTU, with no significant mediation effect of PCK observed. Furthermore, professional experience (PE) did not moderate this relationship. However, TK was found to significantly influence PCK, thereby impacting the quality of instruction provided by teachers. Additionally, PCK was identified as a significant predictor of PTU. The study implications lies in its anticipation that Ghanaian mathematics teachers’ TK is perceived to enable them to leverage digital tools and resources effectively to connect it to their PCK, ultimately to lead to more engaging, effective, and impactful mathematics instruction delivery. This will foster meaningful learning experiences aligned with curriculum goals and learners needs.
