Relying on the nation's first judicial big data research base for people's courts in Southeast University, Southeast University Law School has set up a training direction for graduate students in legal big data and artificial intelligence, and explored the "three-dimensional, small-scale, wide-ranging, and large-scale ecology." The…

This paper seeks to empirically validate a sector agonistic instrument that measures the perceived critical success factors in data governance. Twelve constructs (Leadership and Management Commitment; Leadership and Management Alignment; Executive Sponsorship; Robust Data Governance Strategy; Change Management; Training and Education; Governance…

Starting with the question of why there is so much religiously motivated resistance against compulsory sex education, this article explores and discusses entanglements of norms about sexuality, gender, and religion in education. Based on predominantly Swedish data, the aim of the paper is to offer perspectives on connections between religiosity…

Research indicates that parents' involvement in early literacy, particularly through book reading, matters for young children's language and literacy development. OBJECTIVE: However, little is known about the nature and extent of family book reading across the U.S. nation or about which factors support parents' involvement in book reading. In…

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…

This study examines College and Career Readiness (CCR) policy implementation through the lens of "decoupling." We investigate how high schools have jointly implemented Career and Technical Education (CTE) and Industry-Based Certifications (IBCs), and whether there is evidence of "curricular-credential decoupling" via…

This paper describes an in-class activity to introduce random assignment, paired data, and learning effect. The activity requires minimal materials, can be completed in a single class period, and is suitable for those using technology to conduct data exploration but can also be adapted for use in a technology-free classroom. The activity consists…

Random Equating (RE) and Heuristic Approach (HA) are two linking procedures that may be used to compare the scores of individuals in two tests that measure the same latent trait, in conditions where there are no common items or individuals. In this study, RE--that may only be used when the individuals taking the two tests come from the same…

In the context of higher education's growing significance and the persistence of inequalities in it, the article aims to further develop the understanding of higher education as a public good and to explore its association with social cohesion in a European comparative perspective. It shifts the focus from the content of higher education as a…

Established in 2004, the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) Postdoctoral Fellowship Program (program) had as its goal the recruitment, training, and creation of cohorts of new PhDs working within the library or cultural heritage digital environment to help manage, sustain, and generate valuable information in support of research…

Objectives: Java is a popular programming language for use in computing education, but it is difficult to get a wide picture of the issues that it presents for novices; most studies look only at the types or frequency of errors. In this observational study, we aim to learn how novices use different features of the Java language. Participants:…

Robust longitudinal education and workforce data are integral in addressing disparities in educational opportunities and economic outcomes. However, not all states link their P-12, postsecondary, and workforce data sets. Kentucky and Tennessee are two state examples that proved success in linking data from different agencies. TICAS' brief analyzes…

This paper discusses the application value of the writing teaching mode combined with the mixed teaching mode in college English writing teaching against the background of big data. Focusing on production-oriented approach (POA) theory, this paper proposes a mixed learning writing model for English teaching and applies the POA mixed learning…

Researchers in the education sciences, like those in other disciplines, are increasingly encountering requirements and incentives to make the data supporting empirical research available to others. However, the process of preparing and sharing research data can be daunting. The present article aims to support researchers who are beginning to think…

Whilst there is plenty of debate on the nature and role of data in social science research, data in schools tend to be understood in terms of numbers and used in limited ways linked primarily to attainment. The 'datafication' of schooling has been strongly critiqued for its powerful impacts on policy and practice, pupils' experience, the…
