“…Employment in STEM occupations have grown in recent time and still requires a great number of expertise to meet this ever-evolving field. There are growing concerns among policy makers and scholars over limited STEM labor pool towards keeping up with global demand, as well as the need to encourage undergraduates' choice and career orientation in STEM fields Nasir et al, 2022;Tan et al, 2021). Globally, STEM career orientation, choice and intention vary due to demand and competence (expertise) available to train persons willing to pursue such career (Badmus & Omosewo, 2020;Compeau, 2016).…”

“…Literature has established causal relationship among awareness, aspiration, and career choice among secondary school students in both home and school as contributory elements in learning and development (Byars-Winston et al, 2010;Kirdök, 2018;Nasir et al, 2022). The role of the environment and even parents are critical to learners' education, career paths as well as socialization (Betz et al, 2020;Heddy & Sinatra, 2017).…”

“…While there are global, national and domestic efforts to encourage students to study STEM related disciplines for over three decades, the projection in terms of expertise have been well speculated and funded to propel emerging learners (Litchtenberger & Casey, 2018;National Science Board, 2017;OECD, 2019b;Peña-Calvo et al, 2016). Governments and stakeholders have budgeted significantly to ensure the gap between demand and supply is remediated with little success on record now (Nasir et al, 2022;Rivera & Li, 2020;Tan et al, 2021).…”

Shortage of expertise in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields have been reported over the years despite financial and social interventions by government through policies and efforts of stakeholders. Remediating the afore stated requires a retrospection into the factors responsible for learners’ choice and career orientation in STEM. As such, this study investigated undergraduates’ choice of STEM field and career orientation employing descriptive research. Undergraduates’ choice of career questionnaire with interpersonal, intrapersonal and career outcome expectancy components formed the instrument with reliability index of 0.86. Purposive sampling was employed in the selection of 200 undergraduates in STEM related disciplines from public universities in Nigeria. Three research questions were raised to evaluate the extent of agreement and variance to each of the factors while three hypotheses were formulated and tested using one-way ANOVA among undergraduates’ choices. From the findings, career outcome expectancy outclassed both interpersonal and intrapersonal factors as reason for career choice. This study recommends that factors considered in this study have the possibility of impacting how institutional policies, educational leaders, and stakeholders determine the kind of support/intervention expected to buffer career choice among STEM students.

“…To identify which abilities were improved by the flipped classroom method, we calculated the learning gain (N-Gain) for each group based on Bloom's cognitive abilities, which were grouped into four levels: knowledge, comprehension, application, and analysis/synthesis. We interpreted the N-gains using Table 7 by Hake (2002), as cited by Nasir et al (2022). We then conducted a t-test to determine the statistical significance of the differences between the N-gains of the control and experimental groups, as presented in Table 8.…”

This research aims to conduct an experimental study to apply a model of flipped classroom pedagogy (FCP) in selected Moroccan classrooms. This is to study its effectiveness in the local context, and to explore the possibility of investing the opportunities it offers to manage and optimize Alternating Teaching (AT), which was adopted during the Covid-19 pandemic to ensure educational continuity. This study adopted a semi-experimental design with a pre- and post-test, and utilized two groups (experimental and control) to evaluate the impact of FCP on AT performance. The study involved 67 students from two secondary school classes, 33 students in the Life and Earth Sciences (LES) class and 34 students in the Physics and Chemistry (PC) class. The results were analyzed using the t-test and learning gain as a function of cognitive abilities and confirmed the effectiveness of FCP in enhancing AT performance. These findings were further supported by classroom observations and semi-structured interviews with students in the experimental group, which showed the positive impact of FCP on both the didactic and relational aspects of AT.

Objective: This study aims to determine the guided inquiry learning model's effectiveness in improving students' scientific literacy skills. Method: This is an experimental research with a one-group pretest-posttest design without using a control class. Results: The research results show that applying the guided inquiry learning model significantly increases students' scientific literacy. Data were analyzed using descriptive methods. Evaluation of the learning plan shows a good feasibility level in its implementation. Student learning outcomes have increased significantly, including understanding of science concepts and scientific skills. Most students progress positively in reading, understanding, and analyzing scientific information. These findings are strengthened by direct observations of students' active participation and involvement during learning. Thus, using the guided inquiry learning model positively contributes to increasing students' scientific literacy. Novelty: The novelty of this research lies in its new contribution to increasing scientific literacy by applying the guided inquiry learning model. The positive response from students to this learning model emphasizes its relevance in advancing scientific literacy. These findings show that the practical use of the guided inquiry model can improve students' understanding of concepts and scientific skills. Integrating this learning model into the learning context adds essential value to science education. The research results confirm that the effective use of the guided inquiry model can increase students' scientific literacy, making a significant contribution to preparing them to face future scientific challenges.
