Abstract

Lecturer support is an important factor influencing students’ academicoutcomes in higher education. This study examines the effects of lecturersupport dimensions, accessibility and approachability (AccApp), expectationand guidance (E&G), and positive encouragement (PE) on undergraduatestudents academic performance (SAP), with age tested as a potentialmoderating variable. Using a quantitative cross-sectional design, data werecollected from 250 undergraduate students at the School of BusinessManagement, Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM), through conveniencesampling. Data were analyzed using partial least squares structural equationmodeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4.0. The results indicate that lecturerAccApp are positively associated with academic performance, whereasexcessive expectations and directive guidance are negatively associated. PEwas not found to have a significant direct influence. Although age exhibiteda positive direct effect on academic performance, it did not significantlymoderate the relationships between lecturer support dimensions and studentoutcomes. These findings highlight the importance of accessible andequitable E&G from lecturers to enhance academic performance inMalaysian higher education. This study contributes to a thoroughunderstanding of the factors impacting SAP and offers insights for lecturers,institutions and government to work holistically to foster an inclusiveenvironment for all parties involved. Recommendations and practicalimplications for future research are discussed.

Abstract

Creative thinking skills (CTS) are essential 21st-century skills for adapting to the rapidly changing world. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of project-based learning (PBL) and substitute, combine, adapt, modify, put to another use, eliminate, reverse (SCAMPER) in enhancing high school students’ CTS, including fluency, flexibility, originality, and usefulness. This quasi-experimental study involved 120 high school students from three classes at a public high school in Vietnam. The study employed a pretest-posttest control group design with one experimental group (n=40) and all two control groups (n=80). The creative engineering design assessment (CEDA) was used. The 15-week intervention involved students in PBL-SCAMPER, while two control groups (n=40 each) followed traditional instruction. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed significant improvements in all CTS indicators for the experimental group (p<0.05), with the largest effect on usefulness (η²=0.27). These findings suggest that the PBL-SCAMPER provides a practical pedagogical framework for developing CTS, warranting broader implementation in high school education.

Abstract

Persistent learning gaps and the scarcity of culturally anchored resources continue to challenge Grade 7 mathematics instruction in rural public schools in the Philippines, particularly under the MATATAG curriculum. This study developed and evaluated a folktale-based instructional material that integrates local Panay folktales with target Grade 7 competencies in measurement and geometry and number and algebra to support meaningful, context-rich learning. Using a Type I developmental research design guided by analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation (ADDIE) model and anchored on social constructivism and attention, relevance, confidence, and satisfaction (ARCS) motivational framework, the material was produced through competency mapping, story-task scripting, iterative expert review, and pilot implementation. Participants included 25 Grade 7 mathematics teachers who identified suitable competencies, 10 content and pedagogy experts who validated the material, and 66 Grade 7 learners from four public secondary schools who evaluated usability and learning support. Acceptability was measured using adapted expert and learner evaluation forms with a 5-point scale and summarized using descriptive statistics. Results indicated an overall rating of highly acceptable. Format and design received the highest evaluation, followed by organization and presentation and learning objectives; content and assessment were rated acceptable, highlighting specific areas for refinement. These findings suggest that embedding mathematical concepts in culturally familiar narratives can improve perceived clarity, engagement, and task coherence while maintaining alignment with curriculum standards. The study contributes a replicable, culturally responsive development process and a ready-to-adapt set of story-based math tasks for teachers in similar contexts. Future work may examine learning gains through quasi-experimental implementation and explore digital adaptations to broaden access and interactivity.

Abstract

This research presents an investigation of how the application of the digital substitution, augmentation, modification, redefinition (SAMR)-based scaffolding might be used to support first-semester basic writing students in overcoming challenges related to grammar proficiency and descriptive writing. A mixed-methods sequential explanatory design was used with 40 students enrolled in English language courses. Quantitative data were obtained through a 14-item Likert-type questionnaire measuring SAMR integration and challenges faced, while qualitative analysis was conducted on semi-structured interview data using NVivo to code thematically. The scores for all implementation indicators indicate that high average values were obtained (global M=3.37), indicating that SAMR-based activities and scaffolding were viewed as useful and engaging for supporting descriptive writing. The level of challenges was perceived as low to moderate (mean=2.59 overall). The key issues were that lecturers needed to offer more consistent support, access to devices was restricted, and students had uneven digital skills. Thematic results identified growth in grammatical consciousness, development of short texts, and creativity as projects that resulted in multimodal outcomes and student involvement. The research also underscores the importance of strong institutional structures and continued support for teaching. It concludes that employing SAMR-informed digital scaffolding is a strategy with the potential to support writing instruction through technology.

Abstract

School leadership in Spain faces notable complexity arising from bureaucratization, limited autonomy, and the insufficient professionalization of the role. This study, grounded in perspectives from distributed, transformational and instructional leadership, analyses leadership teams’ perceptions regarding access to the position, training, the competencies required, and the satisfaction associated with these functions. To this end, a qualitative design was employed, based on semi-structured interviews conducted with 24 teachers holding leadership positions. The data were examined through categorical content analysis with the support of NVivo, ensuring both inter- and intra-rater reliability. The study offers an original contribution by providing updated empirical evidence on how structural and organizational conditions shape motivations, training relevance, and the relational competencies that underpin participatory leadership models. The thematic analysis identified several recurring themes: positive evaluations of initial training, diverse motivations for assuming the role (from vocation to compulsory appointment), the emphasis on communicative, collaborative and organizational competencies, and ambivalent professional satisfaction, combining fulfilment with administrative overload. In conclusion, the study underscores the need for more contextualized, practical, and sustainable policies and training programs that strengthen effective and humane pedagogical leadership, addressing the persistent gap between current training and real school demands.

Abstract

Physical fitness is a critical determinant of health, development, and well-being for children with special educational needs (SEN), yet their participation in physical activity remains limited due to physical, social, and institutional barriers. Although adapted physical activity (APA) interventions have been widely investigated, the global evolution of research on physical fitness among children with disabilities has not been systematically mapped. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis of Scopus-indexed publications from 1964 to 2025 focusing on school-aged children (approximately 5-12 years) with physical, intellectual, sensory, and developmental disabilities. Studies unrelated to physical fitness or exercise outcomes were excluded. A total of 536 documents were analyzed using Scopus Analyzer, Microsoft Excel, and VOSviewer to examine publication trends, document types, country productivity, authorship patterns, collaboration networks, keyword co-occurrence, and bibliographic coupling. The inclusion of 2025 records reflect early-access indexing at the time of retrieval. Results indicate substantial growth in research output, particularly after 2016. Research is predominantly concentrated in high-income Western countries. Established themes center on rehabilitation and motor performance, while emerging topics include inclusion, adaptive sports, and psychosocial outcomes. Findings should be interpreted cautiously due to reliance on a single database and English-language dominance.

Abstract

Educators are the architects of sustainable development (SD), transforming society and balancing development and sustainability. They enhance education for sustainable development (ESD) and societal transformation, driving innovative evolution and future-oriented development within the community. ESD, a millennium, and sustainable development goal (SDG), need to be implemented globally. Teachers are vital in transmitting knowledge, beliefs, and skills required for sustainability in the changing environment. This study examined secondary school teachers’ beliefs about ESD based on their professional qualifications, teaching experience, and position. The authors used a survey approach and collected the data using a belief assessment tool, i.e., the ESD beliefs scale. The respondents were 400 secondary school teachers in Kerala, India. The study used an item-based evaluation to achieve these objectives and calculated t-values, F-values, and percentages. The research findings indicated that teachers hold constructive opinions towards ESD. The positional status of teachers did not alter beliefs regarding ESD among secondary school teachers. In contrast, professional qualifications and years of teaching experience significantly influenced these ESD beliefs. The findings from this study enable education stakeholders to amend the current secondary education system for SD.

Abstract

In today’s rapidly advancing digital landscape, equipping students with strong competencies in information technology (IT) and innovative problem-solving strategies is essential to meet market demands, foster lifelong learning, and engage with emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence. Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ) has been applied in educational contexts to enhance students’ creativity and technical skills, yet prior research has produced mixed results regarding its effectiveness in robot construction and programming. This study investigated the impact of TRIZ-based instruction on IT achievement among 7th-grade students, examining differences between pre- and post-intervention performance and gender-related variations in robot assembly, programming, and strategy use. This aspect uniquely distinguishes the present study from prior investigations. Employing a descriptive correlational design, the sample comprised 329 7th-grade students and 65 IT teachers. Results indicated significant improvement in IT achievement from pre-test to post-test, favoring the post-intervention outcomes. However, no significant gender differences were found in post-test scores or in the application of TRIZ strategies. The findings highlight the value of integrating TRIZ-based approaches into IT curricula and diversifying problem-solving activities to cultivate innovation, technical proficiency, and adaptability among school students in preparation for future technological challenges.

Abstract

Pre-service teachers of mathematics must be systematically prepared as effective teachers through structured instruction that targets conceptual understanding and enables them to develop the competencies needed to address real-world problems. This paper reports the findings from a study aimed at assessing the impact of competency-based teacher education (CBTE) on mathematical conceptual understanding among pre-service teachers in Kenyan teacher training colleges (TTCs). The study was guided by scientific management and constructivist theories, emphasizing structured instructional planning and learner-centered facilitation. A mixed-methods research design was employed to collect data from 371 pre-service teachers using questionnaires and interviews. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, while qualitative data were analyzed thematically. The study revealed a significant positive association between CBTE variables and pre-service teachers’ mathematics conceptual understanding (Spearman’s rho(371)=0.198, p˂0.05). Further, regression analysis indicated that CBTE instructional practices significantly predicted pre-service teachers’ conceptual understanding (F(7,363)=7.791, p˂0.05), accounting for 13.1% of the variance. Qualitative findings corroborated these results, showing that learner-centered and technology-supported instruction enhances conceptual understanding. The findings suggest that holistic and coherent CBTE implementation can enhance trainees’ understanding of mathematics concepts.
