“…While in the former case, the device helps students work transparently and simultaneously between groups (Ng et al, 2020), in the latter case, it also supports learning (Lin, KY et al, 2020). Moreover, a digital tool can also be used to identify mathematical talent among primary school pupils based on a computer game (Juric et al, 2021).…”

“…It is the case for all robotics projects, where the robot has to be "made" to do something (Major et al, 2021;Cui et al, 2021;Wang et al, 2021;Shahin et al, 2021;Sisman et al, 2022;Bhuyan et al, 2020;Kim et al, 2021). However, it also includes programming tasks (Weng et al, 2022;Century et al, 2020;Lin, YT et al, 2020), computer games (Juric et al, 2021), andvirtual reality (Darayathna et al, 2020).…”

In our literature review, we analyzed educational science articles which provided up to date (from 2020 to 2022) research results on the application, implementation and development of problem-based learning tools, materials and methods (or frameworks) in STEM subjects. The most common themes of those articles were the use of state of the art digital tools (e.g. VR or IVE) and topics based around environmental awareness (e.g. bushfire safety or the fauna of the seas) and sustainability (plastic pollution, low carbon awareness etc.). Based on the content of newly implemented elements and methodologies of the curricula, we marked typical tools and methods which may be utilized the most effectively in PBL - we also enlisted key contributing factors for implementational success (both systematic and (inter)personal ones). We also categorized the digital tools that were used in PBL of STEM - the overview suggests that the increased use of digital tools may not always be the primary instrument to enhance the subject-specific knowledge of the learners, but it can prove to be highly effective in developing other elements of the students’ skillset (e.g. soft skills).

“…Mathematics and physical education were the main fields of study when the previous researchers conducted their research. A number of researchers apply games in mathematics learning in elementary schools (Fernández-Oliveras, Espigares-Gámez, & Oliveras, 2021;Fraga-Varela Dr., Vila-Couñago Dr., & Martínez-Piñeiro Dr., 2021;P Juric, Bakaric, & Matetic, 2021;Pires et al, 2019). Games in the form of invasion can be used in the field of physical education studies (Otero Saborido et al, 2014).…”

Elementary school learning that is integrated with games can increase student motivation in learning so that it can have a positive impact on learning outcomes. The bibliometric review used in this research aims to analyze articles that discuss the use of games at the elementary school level published in the Scopus database indexed journal for the period 2013-2022. A total of 122 articles discussing the integration of games in primary school level learning were analyzed. The review findings show that there was a significant increase in the number of publications in 2016-2021, around 77.87% of articles were published in that period. Spain and Indonesia dominate the number of publications. Four authors with 3 publications each are influential authors. Data visualization shows that this research topic can be grouped based on the type of game, type of game, subject of study, learning approach, type of learning, subject involved in research, and a number of topics that have the potential to be integrated with other topics to obtain novelty. The findings of this study can help relevant researchers to recognize research trends in the use of games for primary school learning globally and recommend directions for further research.

Purpose of the study: This study aims to understand the factors that influence students in choosing a mathematics major using the factor analysis method. Methodology: Data were collected through structured interviews from 150 students at two different universities using stratified random sampling techniques. Analysis was performed using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Varimax rotation to identify the main dimensions that influence student preferences. Numerical analysis helped to group the variables into relevant factors based on the loading values Main Findings: Factors that influence students in choosing Mathematics Major consist of 19 variables which are grouped into 5 factors, namely: the first factor is privileges and facilities with an eigenvalue of 4.088%, the second factor is the lecture building and social factors with an eigenvalue of 2.431%, the third factor is the promotion factor with an eigenvalue of 1.743%, the fourth factor is the job factor with an eigenvalue of 1.351%, the fifth factor is the comfort factor with an eigenvalue of 1.148%. Novelty/Originality of this study: These findings provide new insights for educational institutions in designing effective promotional strategies and developing relevant curricula to increase the attractiveness of mathematics majors. The novelty of this study lies in the application of factor analysis to map students' specific reasons, which has rarely been done before in the context of higher education.
