Abstract Self-efficacy is an important determinant in successfully attempting a task. In the area of education, self-efficacy plays crucial role causing behavioral changes, resulting enhanced performance over course learning. chemistry students often develop anxiety towards performing experiments due to perceived negative outcomes from lack understanding and improper experimentation. This negatively impacts laboratory experiments. We define student-held beliefs about their experimental...

Access and personalized instruction required for laboratory education can be highly compromised due to regulatory constraints in times such as COVID-19 pandemic or resource shortages at other times. This directly impacts the student engagement immersion that are necessary conceptual procedural understanding scientific experimentation. While online remote laboratories have potential address aforementioned challenges, theoretical perspectives of learning outcomes critical enhance their impact...

The accelerated adoption of distance learning in post-pandemic times has resulted increasing research publications and review studies a short time. This necessitates the exploration large corpus academic for effective strategies. As stakeholders have assimilated transactional approach to understanding learning, theory (TDT) is relevant understand ways reduce between learners educators maximum effectiveness learning. Our study applies TDT from supply perspective as tool ensure improved...

The sensed data acquired acquisition provides user-friendly remote access collaborative platform monitor control real-time with options change parameters graphically...

An increase in adolescent social media use has exacerbated cyberbullying globally. Instagram the highest percentage of users experiencing cybervictimisation. While past research delved into self-driven or peer-driven motivations cyberbullying, theory-driven characterising external factors is integral to understanding psyche cyberbullies, victims, bystanders. Examining moderating broader context family addition peers vital mitigate cyberbullying. This paper explores related parent and...

Laboratory education is essential for enhancing both the understanding of concepts and skills students. A significant barrier to excelling in laboratory practices relates a lack self-efficacy. Being complementary mainstream theoretical learning, contribution impart knowledge hands-on proficiency often under-represented. The aim this research was validate novel experimental self-efficacy (ESE) scale explore its relationship with outcomes, using gender year study as mediating variables. ESE...

Learning is a life long process and the understanding gained depends on extent of practice effort from learner. involves cognitive ability to grasp information in order utilize knowledge effectively. In science education, use laboratories supplement learning integral overall development However, due numerous challenges such as lack effectiveness practical impart conceptual knowledge, goals are compromised. this work, curves modeled quantitatively assess using technology rich Virtual...

Performing laboratory experiments is an integral and unavoidable part of STEM education. The teaching efficacy can be optimized by integrating ICT-based tools into the curriculum. As teachers are key facilitators in practical lessons, it imperative that they adopt latest technologies, such as virtual laboratories (VLs). To achieve optimal student learning outcomes, ideally undergo adequate training programs equip them with relevant knowledge skills to utilize VLs. myriad workshops...
