Abstract

This multiple case study aimed to explore language teachers’ experiences with a focus on their strategies and challenges in delivering distance learning and transitioning to limited face-to-face classes. The study was conducted with six English language teachers from the College of Education at Jose Rizal Memorial State University in Zamboanga del Norte, Philippines. The data collection process involved semi-structured interviews to gather in-depth narratives of participants’ experiences. Thematic analysis was used, a method that involves systematically identifying, coding, and categorizing patterns in participants’ narratives to uncover recurring themes and insights. Key findings revealed that teachers leveraged flexible scheduling to increase productivity and develop innovative teaching methods. Despite these efforts, lack of internet access among students emerged as a significant challenge, requiring teachers to provide additional support outside of regular hours, often through text and messaging platforms. Further challenges included the late start of the school year and inadequate classroom space, which required make-up sessions and additional adjustments to meet academic requirements. Based on these findings, participants recommended further professional development opportunities, financial assistance, material support, and a reassessment of teaching modalities to improve learning effectiveness in similar challenging contexts.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze in depth the digital literacy of students, which refers to their ability to effectively find, evaluate, create and communicate information using digital technology in the education and teaching process in higher education. In the digital age, digital literacy has become an essential and indispensable skill for personal, academic, and professional success. Cultivating digital literacy in university students is not only an important component of promoting the construction of higher education programs but also a crucial issue in facilitating the digital transformation of higher education. The study surveyed  undergraduate students at Guizhou Normal University in Guiyang, China, using a structured questionnaire that covered six dimensions of digital literacy: information acquisition, communication and collaboration, digital content creation, security, privacy, and problem-solving. The results reveal that university students generally exhibit high levels of digital literacy, with no significant differences between genders. However, students from urban areas demonstrate significantly higher digital literacy levels compared to those from rural areas, particularly in security and privacy domains. The findings underscore the need for targeted interventions to enhance digital literacy in areas such as digital content creation and problem-solving. This study provides practical recommendations for higher education institutions to address these gaps and promote comprehensive digital literacy development among students especially in the fields of education and teaching

Abstract

This study examined the teaching of Graphic Communication and Techniques to senior phase Technology learners. A quantitative research approach was adopted, and a case study design was employed. To a population of 7 teachers and 156 learners in Capricorn District, Limpopo in South Africa, a convenient sample of 13 teachers and 149 learners were used. This study collected data through questionnaires, observations and archive analysis. This study revealed that 76.92% of sampled teachers taught learners different structures using freehand technique and single point perspective, but this had a negative impact on leaners ability to use drawing tools as no teacher attempted to use and encourage learners to draw using adequate set squares. It was interesting to see that only 38.46% of teachers emphasised the need to use different colours in drawings to improve learners spatial and cognitive skills. Some of the leaners activities showed that different colours were used even though the drawings were not correct and appealing. Only 69.23% of teachers taught learners the use of correct line types, sadly learners were not receptive of this emphasis as most of them had drawings which were drawn in bold lines and not neat. In light of the emergent findings, this study recommended that teachers should engage in lesson study approaches with other colleagues teaching Technology in order to strengthen their grasp of learner-centred approaches that are appropriate for teaching graphic communication and techniques.

Abstract

This quantitative study employs an ex post facto design to investigate the predictive relationship between tolerance and self-regulation in early childhood (N = 99; ages 4–6 years). Participants were purposively sampled from Tabir District, Indonesia, to represent the key socioeconomic and cultural characteristics of the region. Validated instruments measuring tolerance (α=0.793) and self-regulation (α=0.799) demonstrated robust psychometric properties through content validity testing and Cronbach’s Alpha reliability analysis. Linear regression analysis (SPSS v.28) revealed tolerance as a statistically significant predictor of self-regulation (β = 0.398, p < 0.001, 95% CI [0.291, 0.505]), accounting for 15.8% of the variance (R² = 0.158). Crucially, we identify a novel mechanistic pathway: tolerance not only enhances behavioral regulation but also significantly contributes to social-emotional competencies within learning contexts (b = 0.427, SE = 0.098, p < 0.001). These findings advance the Social Learning Theory framework by demonstrating how prosocial dispositions scaffold regulatory development. We propose empirically testable models for tolerance-based interventions to optimize early childhood developmental trajectories.

Abstract

Biology learning in schools is often theoretical and involves less direct exploration, so that students' science process skills have not developed optimally. This study aims to produce and test the validity of Atlas Pteridophyta based on Project-Based Learning (PjBL) and integrated with the local wisdom of the community in the Tahura R. Soerjo area as a biology learning media to train science process skills. The method used in this research is Research and Development (R&D) with the 4D model (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate). This atlas was developed through field exploration of local fern species that are utilized by the community in the context of culture, medicine, and food, then integrated into project-based activities. Validation was conducted by three validators, namely two lecturers of material and media experts to ensure the accuracy of the concept, and one biology teacher to assess the ease of use of the atlas. The validation used a questionnaire that assessed aspects of presentation, integration with PjBL, and relevance to science process skills. The validation results showed that the atlas had an excellent level of validity, with an average score of 3.95. The aspects of integration with PjBL and science process skills scored 3.92 and 3.85, respectively. Although this atlas has not yet been implemented in schools, its use is planned in the pilot stage in one of the high schools in Jombang for grade 10 students. This research is still limited to expert validation and does not include effectiveness testing in the field, so there is no comparison with other learning methods. Therefore, further research is needed to empirically determine the impact of using the atlas on science process skills. In conclusion, the PjBL-based Atlas of Pteridophyta is feasible for use as a contextual and exploratory biology learning medium. The integration of local wisdom also provides a more authentic learning experience and is relevant to the students' environment.

Abstract

This study addresses a pressing issue in physics education: the underutilization of laboratory assistants as facilitators of conceptual learning, particularly in experimental settings. Despite their vital role, the impact of their 21st-century competencies, known as the 4C skills, on students' experimental comprehension remains underexplored. This study investigates the influence of laboratory assistants' 4C competencies on Students' Experimental Comprehension (SEC) in Basic Physics Practicum I and II at the Physics Education Study Program, UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung. Employing a quantitative quasi-experimental approach, data were collected from 29 laboratory assistants and 401 students between 2020 and 2024. Validated instruments, including written tests, structured observation sheets, and documentation of practicum results, ensured methodological rigor. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the 4C competencies significantly predicted SEC (R² = 0.869), with creativity (β = 0.461) and critical thinking (β = 0.350) emerging as the most influential dimensions. Pearson correlation further confirmed strong positive relationships between each competency and SEC. The findings highlight the critical role of soft skills in laboratory-based science education, suggesting that structured training in 4C competencies can substantially enhance experimental learning outcomes. This research offers new insights for curriculum developers, educational policymakers, and laboratory supervisors who aim to strengthen practicum quality by empowering laboratory assistants as active pedagogical agents.

Abstract

This mixed-methods quasi-experimental study examines the impact of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) on enhancing pedagogical competencies among pre-service biology teachers (N = 60) in a Teaching Profession Course. Grounded in the TPACK framework and constructive alignment theory, the research compares PjBL implementation with conventional instruction through cognitive assessments (α = 0.87), lesson plan evaluations (κ = 0.82), motivation scales, and qualitative analysis of reflective journals and project artifacts. Quantitative results demonstrate significant improvements in the PjBL group, including superior cognitive gains (p < 0.01, d = 0.82), enhanced pedagogical design skills (p = 0.013, η² = 0.28), and increased motivation (Δ23%, p<0.001). MANOVA reveals multidimensional competency development across learning, application, and self-efficacy domains (F = 9.67–14.32). Qualitative findings highlight the successful development of context-responsive STEM modules, though challenges in time management emerged. The study provides empirical evidence for PjBL's efficacy in preparing biology educators for 21st-century challenges, offering a validated model for integrating disciplinary core ideas with pedagogical praxis. These findings advocate for curriculum reforms that incorporate scaffolded PBL experiences to bridge the theory-practice gap in teacher education.

Abstract

Limited empirical research has examined how Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS)-based instructional modules can enhance inferential reading among Indonesian English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners in Islamic higher education. Addressing this gap, this quasi-experimental study evaluated the impact of a HOTS-based module grounded in Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy on students’ inferential reading skills and metacognitive strategies. A total of 57 EFL learners from an Islamic university in Indonesia participated (28 experimental, 29 control) over a six-week intervention. Inferential reading performance was measured using a validated multiple-choice reading comprehension test. Data were analyzed using paired and independent samples t-tests with effect size estimation. The experimental group demonstrated significant improvement (mean gain = 10.89 points; p = 0.000; Cohen’s d = 1.22), and a significant difference was found between groups (p = 0.008; Cohen’s d = 0.75), indicating a strong practical impact. This quasi-experiment provides evidence-based support for integrating HOTS-oriented instruction to foster 21st-century skills such as critical literacy and metacognitive awareness in Indonesian EFL contexts. The findings support the integration of HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills) modules into teacher certification programs and EFL teacher training curricula within Islamic higher education institutions across Southeast Asia, contributing to the advancement of pedagogical practices and teacher professional development,
