This study aims to develop a theory to understand how students cultivate and apply resilience in solving mathematical problems. Specifically, it integrates cognitive, emotional, and social dimensions of resilience to create a holistic framework. Using a deductive theory development approach, the study starts with an existing theory, formulates hypotheses, and tests them through data collection and analysis. Seven axioms were formulated leading to three propositions: i) students with higher levels of mathematics resilience will demonstrate greater persistence and effort when faced with challenging mathematical problems; ii) psychological, cognitive and social factors are influential to a student’s resilience in solving mathematical problems; and iii) developing a growth attitude, fostering a supportive learning environment, and providing appropriate teacher scaffolding can help all to build mathematical resilience and problem-solving success. From these propositions, the three-dimensional resilience theory in mathematical problem solving is formulated. This theory recognizes the interplay of psychological, social, and cognitive factors. Future research could focus on testing it in various educational settings, such as different grade levels, cultural contexts, or educational systems, to assess its generalizability and robustness.

This study investigated the effectiveness of outdoor mathematics instruction as an alternative to the conventional classroom-based approach, specifically focusing on grade 7 measurement concepts. Students’ perception on outdoor activities in mathematics was also measured. A two-group quasi-experimental design was utilized, involving two selected classes from a public high school in Tawi-Tawi, Philippines. One class engaged in outdoor mathematics activities, while the other used the conventional lecture approach. The study utilized a 40-item researcher-made test, a perception checklist, and outdoor mathematics activities, which were presented to a panel of experts for validation and underwent reliability testing. Statistical tools such as mean, standard deviation, and t-test were used to analyze the performance of the two groups. Results indicated that students exposed to outdoor mathematics activities showed significant improvement in understanding and applying basic measurement concepts compared to their peers in conventional settings. Similarly, the students reported positive perceptions of outdoor activities. This study highlighted the potential benefits of incorporating outdoor mathematics instruction into school curricula as an innovative teaching strategy to enhance students’ learning and engagement.

This study explored the activity preferences of Generation Z (Gen Z) students in rural communities to enhance the implementation of the Philippine physical activity towards health and fitness (PATH-Fit) program. Utilizing a qualitative-ethnographic approach, insights were obtained from 20 selected Gen Z students through expert-validated open-ended questions. The findings highlighted seven key preferences: lessen the lectures, holistic activities, sports and physical activities, comfort, accessibility, and convenience, community and outdoor activities, activities to deviate from technology, and activities that do not add stress. The study revealed that Gen Z students in rural areas prefer PATH-Fit activities that are engaging, diverse, and supportive of their overall well-being. They favor fewer lectures to allow for more interactive learning experiences that integrate social, mental, and emotional aspects alongside physical activities. Additionally, they seek activities that are comfortable, accessible, and convenient, valuing easy access and minimal hassle. Community engagement and outdoor experiences are also crucial to them, as are opportunities to disconnect from technology and avoid stress. These preferences emphasize the need for a well-rounded and adaptable approach to physical education (PE) that aligns with Gen Z students’ diverse needs and well-being in rural communities.

This study presents a content analysis of Ghana’s English and mathematics curricula. The aim was to determine if the content in both curricula creates awareness of social injustice issues. It was a qualitative study, and data was collected from the official curricula. The study found that the content in the curricula makes a good attempt to represent gender equally in the roles assigned to both genders. However, the content does not create awareness of the availability, accessibility, and distribution of resources. The concepts and examples of socioeconomic issues need to reflect the realities satisfactorily. It was recommended that a conscious effort be made to integrate issues of social injustice in the English and mathematics curricula in the next curricula for the pre-tertiary level.

This study examined the effects of contextualized lessons using agricultural concepts on the level of proficiency of Grade 8 students in probability. The study employed a triangulation method by gathering data through the pretest and posttest results, students’ perceptions, and the teacher’s reflections. A total of 36 students whose families engaged in agricultural activities were purposefully chosen and were categorized into four proficiency levels: advanced proficient, proficient, approaching proficient, and developing proficient, based on their average grades in mathematics from the first and second quarters. The intervention employed contextualized lessons that integrated agricultural concepts to facilitate the teaching of probability to a group with varied proficiency levels. The findings revealed a significant improvement in students’ performance between the pretest and posttest across all proficiency levels. However, the developing proficient group encountered challenges, particularly with simplifying fractions, affecting their overall performance. This study concludes that while contextualizing mathematics using agriculture improves students’ engagement, performance, and understanding of probability, students with lower proficiency levels require additional support with mastering fractions skills. Therefore, this study suggested that teachers integrate practical, real-world contexts, like agricultural concepts, and acknowledge its varying effects on students depending on their proficiency levels.

The aim of the article is to empirically measure the possibilities of using virtual simulations to train engineering troops to work in the field. A set of test methods was used for diagnostics, as well as observation and formative experiment. Similar dynamics of the levels of activity and cognitive components of readiness for work in the field were revealed in the experimental group (EG) and control group (CG). In both groups, the significance indicators of the Wilcoxon test are at p=0.01 (T=211; T=198; T=201; T=209). Simulation training proved to be quite effective in stabilizing risk-taking and anxiety among engineering troops, which is confirmed by Wilcoxon tests at p=0.01 (T=178; T=169). No significant differences were found in the dynamics of the teamwork skills (T=196; T=181). Indicators of the ability to adhere to the norms of professional ethics did not change in both groups (T=299; T=309). Therefore, the positive psychological role of virtual simulators for the readiness to work in the field can be stated. The obtained results determine the foundation for optimizing the strategies and tactics of military training for work in the field, taking into account the capabilities of the modern information environment.

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.

The stakeholder’s participation is crucial to analyzing wicked problems. To explore the connection with Centennial stakeholders, this research presents an exploratory, cross-sectional, and quantitative analysis of learning styles (LS) according to Kolb’s theory for Centennial stakeholders in a transition design approach. In general, 5 research hypotheses were proposed to determine findings that allow improving the design and development of a social laboratory within the framework of educational institutions as part of a process innovation where students become more involved with wicked problems. The results show that there is some predominant LS, accommodation (LS1) related to feeling and doing, and diverging (LS3) related to feeling and watching. To conclude, according to our survey, Centennial stakeholders have a balance concerning LS that must be considered as part of the design of the approach to wicked problems.

Intercultural competence is recognised as a key element in the modern world, where openness to diversity contributes to effective international communication and deeper understanding, tolerance, and joint development in an intercultural environment. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of internationalisation of the educational process on the development of students’ intercultural competencies. A diagnostic test of relations was used to diagnose the intensity of the ethnic stereotype. The intercultural competence was measured according to the adapted scale of Fantini and Tirmizi and the cultural intelligence scale (CQS). A questionnaire was developed to determine students’ satisfaction with studying under the internationalisation programme. The obtained results (Uemp=113Ucr=127) gave grounds to conclude that the internationalisation of the educational process positively affects the development of intercultural competencies. The experiment showed that students generally had a positive ethnic stereotype, and the internationalisation programme increased the growth of indicators of intercultural competence according to all criteria. The results show that students generally are highly satisfied with studying in exchange programmes. The prospect for further research is the study of the influence of intercultural communication on students’ academic performance.
