Informed by the analytical framework of academic emotions (Pekrun, R., and L. Linnenbrink-Garcia. 2012. "Academic Emotions and Student Engagement." In "The Handbook of Research on Student Engagement," edited by S. L. Christenson, A. L. Reschly, and C. Wylie, 259-282. New York: Springer) and a cognitive approach to feedback,…

Interactive student response systems (SRS, clickers) are used in post-secondary classrooms to enhance student engagement and learning. Their use, however, is most often limited to reviewing material with multiple choice questions. The present study examined student responses to a strategy for technology-enhanced learning within an introductory…

Feedback literacy, the process by which students make meaning and learn from feedback, is frequently low among post-secondary students, perhaps due to lack of training (Carless & Boud, 2018). We sought to determine if students benefitted from feedback literacy training integrated with mindfulness training. We created a six-lesson, online,…

The purpose of this article is to explain an international perspective on strategies to increase college students' empathy in gymnastics courses. One of the most popular basic physical activity courses in Japan is a trampoline-based gymnastics course that helps college students practice the safe use of the trampoline based on their own…

Studies have shown that peer evaluation is effective in improving learner feedback literacy and quality. However, evaluators have few opportunities to express their views in traditional peer evaluation. This study introduced backwards feedback based on traditional peer evaluation and constructed a dual-cycle peer evaluation model to enhance…

The study aims to introduce to the Turkish culture a measurement tool that has proven validity and reliability in determining the level of quiet quitting among teachers. It involves the analysis of the validity and reliability of the Quiet Quitting Scale, as the scale is adapted to the Turkish culture. The scale, originally developed in English,…

Careless and insufficient effort responding (C/IER) is a situation where participants respond to survey instruments without considering the item content. This phenomena adds noise to data leading to erroneous inference. There are multiple approaches to identifying and accounting for C/IER in survey settings, of these approaches the best performing…

Smart learning environments provide students with opportunities to engage in self-regulated learning (SRL). However, little research has examined how teachers leverage these opportunities. We employed a multiple-case study methodology to examine the SRL supporting instructional practices of five third-grade teachers as they implemented a science…

Students with disabilities are being educated in the general education setting at an ever-increasing rate; therefore, it becomes imperative that educator preparation programs ensure that pre-service teachers are equipped to meet the needs of all students. Teacher education scholars have encouraged educator preparation programs to maximize the…

Although the relevance of emotions for motivating climate change action is acknowledged in research, it lacks recommendation how to include emotions in Climate Change Education (CCE). This study draws on selected theories of emotions (the control-value theory according to Schutz and Pekrun (2007) and the wheel of emotions according to Plutchik…

While the term feedback engagement has become a buzzword in higher education, the constructs of feedback engagement have remained inadequately investigated, and research on the conceptualization and instrumentation of feedback engagement in the literature is limited. This paper presents the development and validation of a feedback engagement scale…

Peer feedback is commonly used in higher education for both practical and pedagogical reasons. However, peer feedback has been criticized by teachers, researchers, and students for being superficial, harsh, uncritical, and/or detached from learning objectives. This study contributes to the existing literature on how to enhance the effectiveness of…

Six experiments were conducted with graduate students to assess resurgence of compound (i.e., multi-step) academic responding under free operant procedures. Participants learned two different interobserver agreement (IOA) methods -- compound behaviors -- through instructional phases before beginning the experimental phases. Each experiment…

Summative assessments tend to be viewed as high-stakes episodes by students, directly exposing their capabilities as learners. As such, receiving feedback is likely to evoke a variety of emotions that may interact with cognitive engagement and hence the ability to learn. Our research investigated the emotions experienced by undergraduate students…

The aim of the current study was to explore Bedouin teachers' emotion management in schools that serve Bedouin students living in traditional communities in the south of Israel. Semi-structured interviews with 14 teachers from elementary schools (for Bedouin students) emphasised the central place of the local culture in shaping teachers' emotion…
