Présentation de l'éditeur

The ongoing Progress in Education series presents substantial results from around the globe in selected areas of educational research. Schools are institutions that sail in the tempest of educational issues, reforms, strategies, data and tools, as well as reflect changes in society. Embedded in all of these are technology, diversity, and innovation - their inevitability has been demonstrated in our schools and communities. The first chapter of this volume explores new research in understanding students' learning and engagement. Chapter Two focuses on measuring and explaining students’ academic performance enrolled into the public universities in Spain. Chapter Three shows the evolution of K-12 mathematical problem posing. Chapter Four presents some of the current knowledge regarding effects of physical activity and motor skills practice on cognitive function and scholastic performance in children and youth. Chapter Five explores how project-based learning (PBL) can be successfully incorporated into the primary school classroom drawing on existing literature and from research undertaken by the authors. Chapter Six examines the factors that are involved in building a high quality fully online learning community. Chapter Seven presents literature in the field of entrepreneurship education and methods used in teaching/learning entrepreneurship in Europe, and describes the eco-innovation including, its characteristics and necessary competences.
