Abstract

Active learning strategies such as think-pair-share (TPS), problem-based learning (PBL), flipped classrooms, and collaborative projects are essential for promoting student engagement, critical thinking, and academic success. This review brings together evidence from multiple disciplines to examine the effectiveness of these strategies and their impact on educational outcomes. PBL is particularly popular in fields such as engineering and medicine, where it enhances problem-solving, self-directed learning, and teamwork by exposing students to real-world, interdisciplinary challenges. Flipped classrooms, where content delivery occurs outside of the classroom, can enable more interactive, discussion-based learning in class, which can improve student performance and satisfaction, despite challenges associated with preparation and varying learning rates. Collaborative projects are often used in economics and social sciences to foster important skills such as teamwork, leadership, and communication through group interaction. The effectiveness of these strategies is further enhanced by structured instructional models such as the analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation (ADDIE) framework, ensuring alignment with educational goals. In addition, the incorporation of artificial intelligence into active learning is transforming educational practice by providing personalized learning experiences and immediate feedback, although it also raises ethical concerns about the balance between technology and human interaction. In summary, active learning strategies, if carefully implemented, can provide students with important skills for academic and career success while meeting the changing demands of modern education.

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of conventional teaching methods and ChatGPT in an introductory Algorithms and Programming course at the university level. ChatGPT, an AI-based NLP technology, assisted students in understanding course material through automated responses. However, its effectiveness relative to conventional methods required further evaluation, particularly concerning motivation, interaction, self-regulation, instructional structure, and the instructor's role. Using a sample of 10 students for pretest-posttest analysis, 38 respondents for the User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ), and accuracy analysis via prompt engineering, the results revealed that conventional methods better enhanced motivation and interaction. ChatGPT demonstrated strengths in attractiveness (1.982) and efficiency (2.053) but scored lower in accuracy (1.395) and novelty (1.053). Prompt engineering significantly improved response accuracy when tailored to learning modules, highlighting the importance of precise inputs. The findings suggested that while ChatGPT excelled as a supplementary tool, it was less effective as a standalone teaching method. This study contributed to the growing field of educational technology by providing insights into the integration of AI tools in learning environments.

Abstract

Students come to class with various perceptions of what constitutes a good teacher. These affect how a teacher is evaluated in increasingly student-centered classrooms where students’ needs, interests, and learning styles are prioritized. To better understand how students perceive a good teacher, this review comprehensively presents the perceptions of students at different educational levels on the traits of a good teacher. It discusses the nuances in these perceptions and whether they are justifiable. It reviewed more than 75 papers to achieve its aims. This review indicates that effective teachers possess characteristics like desirable personality, interpersonal skills, and instructional methods. It highlights the complex role teachers play in influencing students' academic and emotional growth. The shift from teaching skills in primary to relationship-oriented traits in secondary education shows that a student's developmental stage significantly affects their view of effective teaching. Secondary students often emphasize relational elements, such as appreciation and empathy, due to their need for autonomy and peer-like connections. University students value subject expertise, effective communication, and motivation. Like secondary students, they view traits like empathy, respect, and approachability as important.  The perceptions of a good teacher, particularly the ability to create a safe and supportive environment, relational skills, and competence in delivering content, are largely justifiable. However, the emphasis on rendering socio-emotional support and a student-consumer mentality in universities that prompts students’ needs to be prioritized could add to teachers’ already heavy workload and result in burnout. While serving as motivators, teachers themselves need motivation to perform their work more effectively.

Abstract

This systematic review examined the effectiveness of innovative teaching strategies in science education, focusing on hands-on learning, technology integration, and student-centered approaches. Using the PRISMA framework, 18 peer-reviewed studies from 2020 to 2025 were analyzed to identify trends, benefits, and challenges. Findings revealed that hands-on learning enhanced engagement and problem-solving skills but faced resource constraints. Technology integration improved accessibility and visualization but required teacher training and equitable access. Student-centered approaches promoted critical thinking and collaboration but demanded alternative assessment methods. Addressing these challenges through blended learning and policy support was found to enhance science education outcomes.

Abstract

 Teaching environmental chemistry today involves both conventional and digital learning modes. Traditional approaches such as lectures, problem-solving, and laboratory exercises, offer content that is more or less structured with direct interaction, but not active engagement, interactivity, and enough resources are often found wanting. To better learn the subject, blended learning has been introduced, including some important digital tools like online facilities, simulations, and virtual labs. These ensure access and increase participation but the major con that students show low motivation because of the unequal access to the tools, the challenge that teachers face using the new tools, low student motivation, and problems in assessment. Its use has grown, but the effectiveness of blended learning, especially in stoichiometry and mass balance, which are considered to be rather complex, is not well documented. This review aimed to answer how traditional, digital, and blended learning approaches work in environmental chemistry education and what the benefits and challenges of each are. While traditional methods are more inclined to encourage the interaction of the instructor, which already appears to be passive and sometimes disconnected from the real situation outside the classroom, the blended learning method will put forward greater interactivity and personalization, though much will now depend on the individual student and the access to technology. A balanced approach will be evidenced by blended learning, with the strong points imbibed from both the modes, but, however, much intelligence is required to apply it to steer clear of further weaknesses. For improvement in the teaching of Environmental Chemistry, it is essential to invest in the digital infrastructure, faculty training, strategies of student engagement, and innovative models of assessment. If applied strategically, then blended learning can bridge effectively between theory and practice, making the teaching of Environmental Chemistry more engaging, inclusive, and outcome-based.

Abstract

While environmental engineering helps to solve major world challenges, it still struggles with diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). This study seeks to understand the current progress of DEI in environmental engineering education at the university level and for professionals. It analyzes studies related to DEI to discover difficulties that hinder its integration and considers proposed solutions for promoting an inclusive environment. Some main obstacles are the low number of minorities, insufficient DEI information in courses and opposition to reform within institutions. Various promising ways such as making changes to the curriculum, inclusive teaching, student mentorship schemes, instructor development and community involvement are covered. Even so, these different approaches often miss proper support and coordination which reduces their usefulness over time. The review points out flaws in how assessment is done and suggests incorporating DEI concepts throughout education policies, teaching activities and professional life. In the end, it recommends ways that teachers, schools and policy groups can promote DEI by staying committed and joining forces.

Abstract

Language carried within it one’s affective notions, psychological struggles, and cognitive abilities. These were expressed through emotions, thoughts, and opinions that reflected one’s social role and status. In this way, language served as a vital tool for communication at the social, institutional, and interpersonal levels. Among its many forms was graffiti. Graffiti represented a form of communication that allowed writers to express their thoughts and feelings freely. This article was based on the premise that classroom wall graffiti played a significant role in voicing the opinions, emotions, and ideologies of their writers. It examined the classroom graffiti written by students at the Lebanese University’s English Department, Faculty of Arts and Humanities. The aim was to highlight the cognitive, behavioral, and interpersonal features of the students’ graffiti in order to demonstrate its effectiveness in expressing their voices. The findings showed that classroom graffiti by these students functioned as a powerful discursive social practice, enabling them to articulate the thoughts and emotions that weighed on their minds.

Abstract

Clean water awareness through STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) activities has become increasingly relevant, especially in rural areas where issues like water pollution and limited access to clean water persist. This paper described an outreach program with the aim of boosting both STEM understanding and health awareness among primary school students in a rural Malaysian community. The sessions were conducted hands-on, involving simple experiments and water filtration demonstrations using readily available materials. These activities highlighted experiential and inclusive learning, aligning with the goals outlined in the Malaysia Education Blueprint 2013–2025. During the program, students explored the science behind water contamination and its health impacts, followed by building their basic water filters. Students responded well during quizzes and interactive tasks, which helped track their learning progress. Notably, their awareness of waterborne diseases and confidence in applying basic filtration methods increased significantly from 15% before the program to full participation and understanding afterwards. Besides gaining knowledge, the activities seemed to shift their attitudes. Many students started asking questions about their household water sources, showing a level of curiosity that was not there before. This kind of learning rooted in real-life context demonstrated that STEM outreach does teach science as well as allows young learners to care about their environment and health. The model used in this program has strong potential to be adapted for other communities where resources may be limited but the need for awareness is in need.

Abstract

Mentorship in teacher education plays a vital role in the development of pre-service teachers by bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. Effective mentorship fosters professional identity, enhances classroom management skills, and promotes long-term career satisfaction. This review aimed to explore the different models of mentorship in teacher education, their outcomes, challenges, and enablers to identify best practices and provide evidence for improving mentorship programs. A systematic review was conducted using databases such as ERIC, Scopus, and JSTOR. Inclusion criteria focused on peer-reviewed articles published between 2013 and 2024, with a specific focus on teacher education programs. Studies examining mentorship models, outcomes, and challenges were considered. The review identified several mentorship models, including traditional dyadic mentorship, peer and group mentoring, and online/e-mentoring. Key outcomes of mentorship include professional identity development, enhanced instructional skills, and increased teacher retention. Challenges, such as time constraints, mentor overload, and mismatched mentor-mentee pairings, were prevalent. Enablers like structured mentor training and reflective practices emerged as critical for successful mentorship programs. Findings highlight the need for structured, evidence-based mentorship programs in teacher education to improve teacher preparation and retention. Future research should focus on longitudinal and cross-cultural studies to explore the long-term effects of mentorship. This review contributes to the development of mentorship models that can be implemented to support teacher growth and retention globally.

Abstract

This systematic literature review examined how action research was used to address persistent challenges in physics education in the Philippines. Physics education played a key role in building scientific literacy, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills—competencies emphasized by the K to 12 curriculum under Republic Act No. 10533 and reinforced by DepEd Order No. 16, s. 2017, which promoted teacher-led research. The urgency for pedagogical innovation intensified during the COVID-19 pandemic, which disrupted traditional teaching and exposed limitations in laboratory access, digital readiness, and student engagement. Despite these developments, there had been no comprehensive synthesis of empirical studies documenting how action research supported physics instruction in the Philippine context. This review addressed that gap by consolidating findings from 14 peer-reviewed studies published between 2021 and 2025, identified through a PRISMA 2020, guided search across Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, ERIC, and ScienceDirect. Qualitative thematic analysis revealed four dominant trends: experiential simulations and inquiry-based models that actively engaged learners in conceptual exploration and problem-solving; integration of technological tools such as PhET simulations, mobile learning platforms, and video-based instruction to enhance accessibility and interactivity; cultural contextualization, including the incorporation of indigenous games and ethno-STEM approaches to increase relevance and inclusivity; and gamification to promote motivation, collaboration, and sustained participation, particularly in underserved communities. These innovations demonstrated positive effects on student engagement, achievement, and teacher professional growth, yet challenges persisted. These included inadequate institutional support for sustained research, unequal access to technology, and difficulties in aligning innovations with standardized curricula. The review concluded that action research offered a systematic, evidence-based mechanism for refining teaching strategies, fostering reflective practice, and sustaining innovation. The findings provided a foundation for enhancing teacher training, shaping education policy, and promoting broader adoption of learner-centered, context-sensitive approaches in physics education.
