Gas Turbine Engines (GTE) have the highest power-to-weight ratio among Internal Combustion Engines (ICE). Its modularity and ability to utilize various types of fuel make it highly recommended in power plants, naval transportation, and, of course, the most equipped in aviation. The lack of GTEs' real data is increasing a recognized need for…

Eye tracking has taken hold in second language acquisition (SLA) and bilingualism as a valuable technique for researching cognitive processes, yet a comprehensive picture of reporting practices is still lacking. Our systematic review addressed this gap. We synthesized 145 empirical eye-tracking studies, coding for 58 reporting features and…

Monitoring applications (MAs) use digital and online tools to collect and track data on student behavior, and they have become increasingly popular among schools. Empirical research on these complex surveillance platforms is scant, and little is known about the efficacy or impact that they have on students. This study used a multi-method…

Learning performance data, such as correct or incorrect answers and problem-solving attempts in intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs), facilitate the assessment of knowledge mastery and the delivery of effective instructions. However, these data tend to be highly sparse (80%90% missing observations) in most real-world applications. This data…

While the field advocates for a diversified and comprehensive professional role (National Association of School Psychologists, 2020), school psychologists have long spent most of their time in assessment-related activities (Farmer et al., 2021), averaging about eight cognitive evaluations monthly (Benson et al., 2020). Assessment practices have…

In Part 1 of this series, the authors briefly reviewed some challenges inherent in using standardized tools with students who are not well represented in norming data. To help readers clearly conceptualize the framework steps, the authors present two case studies that showcase how a nonstandardized approach to assessment can be individualized to…

The "Building Your Research Data Management Toolkit" was developed to provide introductory research data management skills training to liaisons in academic libraries. This paper assesses the participants' perceived change in knowledge, behaviors and attitudes as a result of participation in the RoadShow program. Long term changes in…

Metrics, outcomes, and assessment are important, yet often forgotten, elements of effective leadership programs. This article will provide an overview of metrics, outcomes, and assessment in regard to leadership programs. The article will then provide example programs and practical guidance on using metrics, outcomes, and assessment in leadership…

This systematic review sheds light on the role of ontologies in predicting achievement among online learners, in order to promote their academic success. In particular, it looks at the available literature on predicting online learners' performance through ontological machine-learning techniques and, using a systematic approach, identifies the…

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…

Carefully designed evaluations of informal science events are key to gaining insights into their efficacy and impact on audiences. However, traditional approaches to evaluation, such as interviews and questionnaires, can be disruptive to the audience experience of science events. There is therefore a need to develop and implement new evaluation…

We are at a critical moment for assessment in schools. Teachers are called to navigate advances in classroom assessment research, top-down assessment policies, and lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on teaching and learning. Embedded in this context are also systemic challenges to teachers' assessment practice. This paper analyses these…

Program evaluation can seem like a daunting task, but it is an important charge to undertake. This article is designed to provide gifted coordinators, teachers, and anyone else who wants to complete a program evaluation with guidance on how to work through a program evaluation by establishing the importance of program evaluation (e.g., Callahan,…

Multimodal learning analysis emphasizes using diverse data from various sources and forms for precise examination of learning patterns. Despite recent rapid advancements in this field, conventional learning analysis remains predominantly cross-sectional and group-focused, which is insufficient for understanding continuous and personalized learning…

State education agencies are sitting on rich repositories of quantitative and qualitative assessment data. This document is designed to provide a conceptual framework and implementation guidance that can help agency leadership leverage and interrogate student performance data in systematic ways for reporting, outreach, and planning purposes. The…
