Transforming Learning Orientations Through STEM Interdisciplinary Project-Based Learning

Science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education is challenged by industries to incorporate business, engineering, and communication experiences to prepare students for workplace success. In this study, we outline an approach—the STEM Oriented Alliance for Research (SOAR)—to enhance student experience by offering interdisciplinary project-based learning (IPBL) for undergraduate students majoring in electrical engineering, communications, and marketing. We examined how students’ disciplinary and cooperative orientations toward learning shifted in response to their experiences in a semester-long interdisciplinary project-based learning experience with authentic industry outputs. Using a multi-method approach, we explored how interdisciplinary projects influenced student experiences in terms of five collaboration abilities: positive interdependence, accountability, promotive interaction, group processing, and social skills. Further, we observed a shift from fixed- to more growth-oriented mindsets, and from a primarily disciplinary to interdisciplinary focus for their future professional work. The outcomes of the SOAR project make clear that providing structure for professional cooperation on interdisciplinary projects can have profound effects on how students learn to cooperate and position themselves as learners. For most SOAR participants, the experience was deeply formative and contributed to their readiness to cooperate and learn within the interdisciplinary and STEM-oriented workforce.

Implementasi Model Project Based Learning Menggunakan Mind Map terhadap Keterampilan 4C Geografi Siswa Kelas X Fase E SMAN 15 Padang

Geography, as a discipline that studies the interaction between humans and the environment, as well as physical phenomena on Earth, plays an important role in developing 4C skills (Communication, Collaboration, Critical Thinking, and Creativity). However, many students still face challenges in applying 4C skills in geography learning. These challenges include a lack of student participation, as seen from their minimal involvement in class discussions, which hinders the development of communication and collaboration skills. This issue is often caused by low self-confidence or insufficient understanding of the material. Additionally, students frequently struggle with critical thinking, particularly in identifying and analyzing complex geographical problems. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative, with the subjects selected using purposive sampling, resulting in a sample of Class X Phase E 8. Data collection was carried out using assessment rubrics in terms of attitudes, knowledge, and skills to evaluate student activities in creating Mind Maps. The results of this study show that the assessment of Mind Mapping, using the Project-Based Learning model, yielded an overall average score of 81.72, categorized as good, and positively impacted the development of students' 4C skills. Students demonstrated creativity (C6) by creating Mind Maps, which reflect their ability to think critically and creatively, core aspects of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTs). Furthermore, they showed improved communication and collaboration abilities in learning, thus achieving the 4C skills.

Can dynamic grouping improve students’ collaborative ability and learning performance in robotics education?

ABSTRACT While pair learning (PL) is considered a potential method in STEM education including robotics education (RE), the question of how to pair students for superior learning effects remains. Current grouping strategies for PL in RE are constrained by fixed grouping (FG) and short of attention to dynamic grouping (DG). Therefore, this study aims to introduce DG into RE, as well as exploring its effects on PL for college and primary students. To this end, a two-stage study was conducted. A pre-post-test design was performed in the pilot study. Based on the pilot study, the authors refined the research design and conducted a comparison experiment (DG vs. FG) for primary school students. Results indicated that: (a) there was no significant difference in collaborative ability between DG and FG, but DG outperformed FG in enhancing students’ contribution; (b) there was no significant difference between DG and FG in students’ learning performance.

Knowledge Atlas of Cultivated Land Quality Evaluation Based on Web of Science Since the 21st Century (2000–2023)

Cultivated land is the most important natural resource for human survival and development. The quality of cultivated land is closely related to grain output, and whether it can guarantee stable food supply is directly related to national food security. Cultivated land quality evaluation is an effective tool for understanding and mastering cultivated land quality. However, few studies have applied bibliometrics to quantitatively and systematically analyze this field. We used VOSviewer 1.6.19 and CiteSpace 6.3.1 software to visually analyze and construct 2478 documents related to cultivated land quality evaluation retrieved from the Web of Science core collection database from 2000 to 2023. Results show that cultivated land quality evaluation is still a popular research field. The collaboration ability among authors is weak and the distribution of institutions and countries publishing in this field is very uneven. In addition, the relevant research has been published in a variety of journals such as agriculture, environment, ecology, and computer technology. The research content is becoming more and more interdisciplinary. Keywords such as “Soil quality”, “Swat”, “Remote sensing”, “Heavy metals” and “Ecosystem services” have become hot topics in this field. In the future, it is necessary to further deepen the connotation of cultivated land quality, develop a long time series dynamic model of cultivated land quality evaluation and monitoring, and enhance the transformation of research results into practical applications.

Recognizing the involvement of students in nursing and physiotherapy contexts

This paper examines the critical role that preceptors in physiotherapy and nursing play in clinical settings, emphasising their contributions to patient care and professional growth. Students who participate in clinical internships gain invaluable practical experience that connects their theoretical understanding to real-world applications. Students who work in nursing contexts are exposed to high-pressure environments and develop their clinical decision-making and collaboration abilities through involvement in acute care. Students studying physiotherapy provide a substantial contribution to rehabilitation units, where their involvement aids in patients' recuperation and fosters the development of critical therapeutic skills. The best practices for integrating students into clinical teams are also included in this review, with a focus on the value of a structured orientation, ongoing mentorship, and creating a collaborative atmosphere. It also looks at the difficulties and impediments to successful student involvement, such as institutional limitations, psychological strain, and the requirement for strong coping skills. Retaining patient trust and providing high-quality care depend heavily on ethical factors like informed consent and confidentiality. The evaluation emphasises how clinical exposure helps students become career ready by preparing them for the challenges of professional practice in the long run. To maximise student experiences and results, interdisciplinary learning opportunities and efficient team integration are crucial. The review sheds light on these areas and emphasises the necessity of ongoing funding and innovation in clinical education in order to produce skilled, self-assured, morally upright healthcare workers.

Peer-assisted Learning in Safety Education Courses to Increase the College Students’ Achievement, Collaboration Ability and Satisfaction

Background and Aim: The safety education courses at colleges typically address specific events and crises reactively rather than proactively cultivating an ongoing culture of "active safety." Traditional lecturing methods dominate, often failing to engage students personally or foster critical awareness and skills. This study explores the implementation of Peer-Assisted Learning (PAL) in safety education to enhance learning outcomes for physics majors at Guangxi Normal University for Nationalities. The aims are to: (1) assess the impact of PAL on students' academic achievement in safety topics, (2) evaluate the development of cooperative skills, and (3) gauge improvements in student satisfaction with the learning process. Materials and Methods: Thirty students from a freshman physics class participated. They engaged in PAL throughout the course. Data were collected via pre-tests and post-tests, surveys, and interviews, then analyzed using SPSS to evaluate changes in learning achievement, cooperative abilities, and satisfaction levels. Results: The study found that students who participated in PAL significantly improved in all three areas. Test scores increased markedly post-intervention, indicating enhanced understanding and retention of safety education content. Additionally, there was notable advancement in students' abilities to collaborate effectively and marked increases in their overall satisfaction with the educational experience. Conclusion: PAL effectively enhances safety education courses' educational outcomes. By actively engaging students and encouraging peer interaction, PAL can significantly boost academic achievement, develop cooperative skills, and increase student satisfaction, suggesting its broader applicability in educational strategies within college settings.

Impact of fairness concerns on resource-sharing decisions: A comparative analysis using evolutionary game models in manufacturing enterprises

In recent years, the resource-sharing model has developed rapidly, and manufacturing enterprises have paid more attention to profit distribution and resource investment. Studying the role of fairness concern behaviour in enterprise resource-sharing decisions can provide strategic references for enterprises to implement resource-sharing.

ANALYSIS OF LOCAL WISDOM-BASED COLLABORATION SKILL INSTRUMENT (LWCSI) IN CIVICS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION

The ability to collaborate is highly important in the world of work and social life. This skill is related to the individual's ability to cooperate with others in achieving a goal. Several previous studies related to the development of collaboration ability instruments using visible dimensions as their pivot, such as aspects of performance outcomes and levels of interaction. However, some previous studies suggest that a person's ability to collaborate comes from within as well. Therefore, an instrument is needed to measure students' collaborative abilities in depth and adapt to the diverse Indonesian context, which is diverse in so many aspects. The researchers developed an instrument called the Local Wisdom-Based Collaboration Skills Instrument (LWCSI), which is an instrument that measures students' collaboration abilities but is adapted to the context of Indonesia which is Godly and diverse in culture. The population in this study consisted of 166 students who took civics education classes in the short semester of 2022/2023. To determine the validity, the df value used is (166-2) = 164 with an α value of 0.05. The R-table value obtained is 0.1281. From the table the R-count is greater than the R-table, so it can be concluded that all items are valid. The number shows 0.06 so it can be concluded that the LWCSI instrument is reliable and can be utilized to measure student collaboration skills based on local wisdom. Therefore, it can be concluded that this instrument is able to measure the collaboration skills of students with a variety of beliefs and cultures, especially in Indonesia that have a large and diverse population.
