Despite these issues, no unistructural, broad, parsimonious and unambiguous quantitative instrument…

This study explores the use of artificial intelligence in grading high-stakes physics exams, emphasizing the application of psychometric methods, particularly item response theory, to evaluate the reliability of AI-assisted grading. We examine how grading rubrics can be iteratively refined and how threshold parameters can determine when…

This study presents the validation of a Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) scale tailored explicitly for primary mathematics teachers in China. Recognizing the gap in context-specific TPACK assessment tools, the research aims to provide an instrument that aligns with the unique educational landscape of China. Utilizing established…

Educators are often trying to foster Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) engagement by facilitating interest in STEM content, but research suggests that STEM interest generally declines through the primary and secondary grades. To counter this trend, STEM interventions have begun to focus on younger students. To support this work, we…

Attempts to raise the emergent literacy of "at-risk" children have prompted programs to teach caregivers how to implement school-like reading and writing activities at home. As an alternative to these programs, which often overlooked families' funds of knowledge, critics have encouraged literacy educators (e.g., teachers, literacy…

Objective: The aim of the study was to develop the "Digital Amnesia Scale Adolescent Form-DAADF" to determine digital amnesia in adolescents aged 12-18 years and to examine its psychometric characteristics. Methods: In the study, 625 adolescents between the ages of 12-18 who use digital devices such as…

After a redesign of our school year structure, our science team developed an introduction to science course focused on teaching science to non-science majors early in their postsecondary studies. The goal of this course was not to prepare students for further pursuit of science degrees; instead, we wanted to equip them with the skills and…

The purpose of this study is to adapt the scale titled "Classroom Management Self-Efficacy Instrument (CMSEI)" adapted by Slater and Main (2020) into Turkish and to test its validity and reliability. In line with the scale adaptation process, initial translation studies were conducted, followed by construct validity testing using…

This study aimed to develop and validate an analytical rating scale specifically designed to assess the lexical proficiency of Chinese college students in Academic English speaking tasks. A multi-layer construct of lexical proficiency was first developed and operationalized into an eight-dimension rating scale, including word diversity, word…

The present study aimed to develop an analytic assessment rubric for the consecutive interpreting course in the educational setting in the Iranian academic context. To this end, the general procedure of rubric development, including data preparation, selection, and refinement, was applied. The performance criteria were categorized into content,…

This study examines the self-perceptions of Indonesian primary education teachers as transformational leaders. A quantitative survey was conducted with 400 randomly selected teachers from Lampung Province, Indonesia to assess their transformational leadership (TL) practices using the Transformational Teaching Questionnaire (TTQ) adapted and…

Fieldwork education is an integral part of the educational process in occupational therapy and assessing student competency at the end of fieldwork is important. The aim of this study was to design and conduct an Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) based on the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework (OTPF) for occupational therapy…

The article presents the development and validation of a new measurement tool, the scale of Jealousy in romantic relationship (JRRS), designed to assess romantic jealousy in individuals aged 18 and above with or without a romantic relationship.
