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…

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…

This study aimed to examine pre-service physical education teachers' (PPETs) subjective theories of assessment as they formed prior to the professional training of assessment during PETE. Using a phenomenological approach, 11 PPETs were interviewed. Data were analyzed in Nvivo 12. Findings revealed that (a) PPETs understood assessment as data…

The study aimed to establish an assessment model for mathematics teachers' knowledge of students' misconceptions in the "Space and Shape" domain, develop the testing tool, investigate and analyse the overall and differences in performance, and propose suggestions for improvement. The assessment model included content knowledge and…

Teachers' knowledge and skills about data-based instruction (DBI) can influence their self-efficacy and their implementation of DBI with fidelity, ultimately playing a crucial role in improving student outcomes. The purpose of this brief report is to provide evidence for the technical adequacy of a measure of DBI knowledge and skills in writing by…

To provide personalized support on educational platforms, it is crucial to model the evolution of students' knowledge states. Knowledge tracing is one of the most popular technologies for this purpose, and deep learning-based methods have achieved state-of-the-art performance. Compared to classical models, such as Bayesian knowledge tracing, which…

Prior studies indicate that faculty often struggle with Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) research due to limited knowledge of relevant research methodologies and data analysis techniques (Boshier, 2009; Kim et al., 2021; McKinney, 2006). Faculty developers at a teaching-intensive institution created an innovative, scaffolded model to…

Building on a study conducted by the authors, this article provides strategies for teaching data literacy and outlines the case-based teaching method as an effective way of developing data-literate teachers.

This study sought to assess the level of secondary students' scientific literacy in suburban schools in Malaysia and England, a research area which to date has not been fully explored in the literature. The study analyzed the data using the OECD's three domain-specific competencies of scientific literacy, namely: (i) explain phenomena…

The use of learner modelling approaches is critical for providing adaptive support in educational computer games, with predictive learner modelling being among the key approaches. While adaptive supports have been shown to improve the effectiveness of educational games, improperly customized support can have negative effects on learning outcomes.…

This paper suggests a revised framework for explaining, developing and assessing international mindedness (IM). A review of the literature -- that presents initiatives, challenges, and debates regarding IM -- concludes with an overview of selected conceptual frameworks that have been used to develop a shared understanding of IM. When the authors…

An educator's perception of teaching is often shaped by their personal experiences in the K-12 classroom as a student. These experiences can impact how they approach many aspects of the teaching profession. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between physical education (PE) pre-service teachers and their conceptions of…

This research explored the knowledge, skills, and strategies early childhood teachers possess related to implementing curriculum and authentic assessment. Research suggests that early educators rate their knowledge of curriculum and authentic assessment and their implementation of both as excellent. Despite these self-reported, high levels of…

This paper presents a case for the use of transaction-level data when analyzing automated online assessment results to identify knowledge gaps and misconceptions for individual students. Transaction-level data, which records all of the steps a student uses to complete an assessment item, are preferred over traditional assessment formats that…
