This study focuses on the construction of the learner-centered teaching college English teaching mode under big data technology. Traditional college English teaching has issues, such as standardized teaching ignoring individual differences and lagging feedback. However, the development of big data technology offers opportunities for teaching…

In the boxplot, the box always represents -- regardless of its area -- the middle half of the data and thus a measure of variability (interquartile range). However, when students first learn about boxplots, they are usual already familiar with other forms of statistical representations (e.g., bar or circle graphs) in which a larger area represents…

Student outcome data is essential for decision-making in higher education, informing choices at the student, institutional, and state levels. Within state authorization--the gatekeeping process for institutional entry, continued operation, and closure--these data support oversight, accountability, and consumer transparency. This brief summarizes…

This study examined the data science career preference, data science skills, and core competencies of 416 students from fourteen Nigerian universities using a Google Forms-created structured online questionnaire. A convenience sampling technique was adopted to select the participants. Data were analysed using both descriptive and inferential…

Assessment data play a crucial role in facilitating informed decision-making. In the context of student affairs professionals aiming to empirically demonstrate the significance of connection, belonging, and wellness within a holistic campus learning environment, the need for formative data is becoming increasingly valuable. The article outlines…

Data science education in Japan extends from elementary to high school students. However, some studies show that this has not enhanced interest or curiosity in data science. Therefore, gamification appears to be an efficient method for encouraging high school students' interest in data science, with research indicating that video games are…

In this case study, we discuss the affordances of using vignettes in a survey to capture the perceptions of the actual experiences from diverse participants in short-term overseas experiential learning trips, even after a significant time lag. The evidence is drawn from an ongoing research study examining the impact of these trips on various…

The traditional system focuses excessively on physical skills and physical fitness assessment, with problems such as single indicator, static approach, subject limitation and inefficient data utilization, making it difficult to assess students in a comprehensive and fair manner. The rise of big data technology has brought about a turnaround, from…

As California State University (CSU) launches its Pregnant and Parenting Students Initiative to increase graduation rates for parenting students at its campuses and works to implement the Greater Accessibility, Information, Notice, and Support (GAINS) for Student Parents Act, an exciting window of opportunity has opened for student voice to inform…

Over the past decade, more attention to data, quantitative, and critical data literacies in writing studies has led to a variety of approaches for getting students to experiment with data in their writing projects. This article explores an approach combining "data feminism" and "quantitative rhetoric" that asks students to…

The challenge: This paper examines the state of knowledge and evaluation in prison higher education. Little is known about its efforts, outcomes, and impact or about the students enrolled in such efforts. Potential consequences: Incarcerated college students are a disenfranchised population with restricted autonomy. Without understanding prison…

Scholars have noted a dearth of experiential learning components in STEM. This study seeks to address that issue by assessing learning outcomes for students who participated in a class with an experiential learning element and those who did not. For the experiential learning component, students, in collaboration with a community organization,…

"Motor fluency" refers to the ease with which an action can be performed and several studies have shown how it can modulate various cognitive processes, such as memory and decision making. To investigate these implications of motor fluency, typing-based paradigms have been proven to be useful. In this literature, based on pioneering…

The increasing use of learning management systems (LMSs) generates vast amounts of clickstream data, opening new avenues for predicting learner performance. Traditionally, LMS predictive analytics have relied on either supervised machine learning or Markov models to classify learners based on predicted learning outcomes. Machine learning excels at…

Sustainability education, as endorsed by the United Nations to address the economic, social, and environmental dimensions of sustainable development, poses challenges due to the extensive spatial and temporal scales of global issues. In this novel, semester-long project, "The Poo-tastic Project: A Deep Dive into Sustainable Sanitation with…
