One of the strongest foundations in reading success includes alphabet knowledge. Nowadays, the utilization of information communication technology (ICT) influences young children’s learning and emergent literacy skills. Hence, this study explored the effectiveness of digital game-based learning resource in improving pupils’ alphabet knowledge specifically on vowels. An alphabet knowledge checklist on vowels was used to collect the data. One key finding from the study is that most of them have fair alphabet knowledge of vowels with an overall pre-test mean score of 17.91. Findings revealed that interactive learning resource was effective as reflected by a substantial increase of 8.95 points. The t-test for paired samples results in a t-value of -10.11 and a p-value of 0.000. Thus, the difference between the posttest and pretest is significant. Hence, digital game-based learning resource is an effective non-print instructional material in kindergarten for the improvement of alphabet knowledge on vowels. The study recommends the creation of contextualized digital game-based learning resource using consonants to further validate the result. A similar resource may also be suggested to other grade levels to confirm its effectiveness in improving alphabet knowledge.","PeriodicalId":331457,"journal":{"name":"International Journal on Studies in Education","volume":"106 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117157156","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Altawalbeh","doi":"10.46328/ijonse.123","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.46328/ijonse.123","url":null,"abstract":"The current study aims to investigate the level of awareness of faculty members on using open educational resources in Jordanian Universities. To achieve the aim of the study, the descriptive approach is used. The study sample consists of (390) faculty members in Jordanian universities, i.e. the University of Jordan, the Middle East University, Yarmouk University, Jerash University, Mutah University, and Aqaba University of Technology. Due to the nature of the study, a questionnaire instrument is developed, and its validity and reliability are verified. In its final electronic form, the questionnaire consisting of (29) items is distributed over (5) domains. The results show that the level of awareness of faculty members on using open educational resources in Jordanian Universities is of a medium level, where the domain of the importance of the open educational resources is ranked first, while the domain of the use of the open educational resources is ranked last. The study also shows that there are no statistically significant differences at the level (α ≤ 0.05) in the level of awareness of faculty members on using open educational resources in Jordanian universities according to the gender variable. Besides, the study shows that there is a relationship between the number of years of experience and the awareness of faculty members on using open educational resources in Jordanian universities according to the variable of the years of the experience, as the more years of experience are, the greater the awareness of using the open educational resources in universities. The study recommends encouraging public institutions and governments and the private sector to participate in the production of open educational resources and establish an OER platform where the entire teaching members in public and private universities in Jordan can participate.","PeriodicalId":331457,"journal":{"name":"International Journal on Studies in Education","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114747065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Massarwe","doi":"10.46328/ijonse.95","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.46328/ijonse.95","url":null,"abstract":"Students regard geometry a difficult study subject, towards which they develop over time negative attitudes and low study motivation. Experiential and creative studying experience increases students' motivation and develops positive attitudes towards the study subject. Knowledge construction takes place through activity and making of tangible interest. This is a studying technique that supports the cognitive construction process of the student. Construction with a compass and straightedge in geometry can meet these requirements. Based on these principles a study was conducted among 50 elementary school students in the sixth grade from the Arab sector in Israel. The aim of the study was to examine the effect of combining geometric construction activities using a compass and straightedge in a geometry class on students' achievements, attitudes, and motivation. When the subject is not part of the school curriculum. The study also examined the skills needed to teach the subject and the difficulties involved. The findings of the present study showed that students who studied geometric concepts from construction with compass and straightedge raised achievements and motivation. They also developed positive attitudes towards geometry. Studying by compass and straightedge helped students to overcome difficulties at the geometric thinking levels, but it required dealing with new studying skills which piqued their curiosity for studying.","PeriodicalId":331457,"journal":{"name":"International Journal on Studies in Education","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131208834","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Deep understanding of structures can help teachers connect these concepts to support their students’ mathematical reasoning and practices involving real-world situations. In mathematics textbooks designed for future teachers, definitions of length, area, and volume vary from procedural (e.g., use a ruler to measure side lengths, use formulas to calculate measures) to conceptual (e.g., construct appropriate n-dimensional units that tessellate the n-dimensional space) to formal (e.g., construct a function mapping qualitative size to a quantity of appropriate units). Most textbooks describe length, area, and volume as quantitative measurements and provide examples of standard units. Definitional aspects such as describing size as an attribute or measurement, identifying dimensionality of a space, or constructing appropriate nonstandard units are inconsistently acknowledged across textbooks. Attending to definitional aspects of spatial attributes and their quantification can open conversations about the structure and essential meanings of length, area, and volume.","PeriodicalId":331457,"journal":{"name":"International Journal on Studies in Education","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121942797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The researchers based the idea of the study upon the newly published second edition of Unlock Series titled Reading, Writing, and Critical Thinking alongside Listening and Speaking and Critical thinking. Side by side with the online Cambridge accounts, students should download a mobile application known as “Cambridge Pocket”, which is easily accessible by students via App store and Android systems. In fact, this paper aims at analysing the attitudes of Birzeit University students towards the integrated mobile application within their English language curriculum (Cambridge Unlock). It precisely reveals important findings concerning how responsively, emotionally, motivationally and educationally this application works. All such hypotheses and questions have been clarified quantitatively and qualitatively. To achieve this purpose, 120 students were randomly selected from Unlock B1.2., Intermediate English and given a questionnaire. Concerning the qualitative data, it has been sought by analysing students’ responses to a set of open-ended questions within the questionnaire in order to reflect on their experience with the second edition of Unlock Books. Hence, this research shows the importance of integrating such apps within the English language classroom.","PeriodicalId":331457,"journal":{"name":"International Journal on Studies in Education","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131449647","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
