Understanding reaction mechanisms is integral to success in organic chemistry; however, prior research suggests that learners struggle with recognizing the importance of underlying implicit features in reaction mechanisms. Because of this struggle, understanding how learners' reason about reaction mechanisms and developing assessments to elicit…

The aim of this study is to investigate how to foster vocational college students' autonomy in learning by integrating metacognitive strategies and social cognitive learning theory. The study uses social cognitive learning theory to look at metacognitive strategies in a systematic and thorough way. It looks for similarities and places where the…

The purpose of this article is to contribute to a critical approach to analysing the new curricula and to outline student-centric approaches through an examination of legislation on educational policy applied by the Greek government in the last five years. After twenty years from the last curricula (2003), the new curricula were published in a…

END 2025 received 704 submissions, from more than 45 different countries, reviewed by a double-blind process. Submissions were prepared to take form of Oral Presentations, Posters, Virtual Presentations and Workshops. The conference accepted for oral presentation 264 submissions (38% acceptance rate). The conference also includes one Keynote…

In "The Culturally Competent Educator", Dr. Almitra L. Berry draws on more than three decades of experience to offer educators a roadmap to implementing equitable practices and policies. Rooted in research and practical advice, this book helps educators foster an environment where every student feels valued and respected. By exploring…

This study aimed to assess the methods and outcomes of The Measurement Tool to Assess systematic Reviews (AMSTAR) 2 appraisals in overviews of reviews (overviews) of interventions in the cardiovascular field and identify factors that are associated with these outcomes. MEDLINE, Scopus, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews were searched…

This study tests a handwriting model for children and youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) that displays the relationships between handwriting process and product characteristics, and the predictors of these characteristics. Structural Equation Modelling was used to test the model for children and youth with ASD (n = 50) and typically…

Learning progressions (LPs) are cognitive models that describe the development of scientific knowledge and practices in students. They are constructed based on learning theories and student data. Scholars have advocated for using LPs to align curriculum, instruction, and assessment into a coherent system, and by doing so, promote productive…

Developing immersive learning systems is challenging due to their multidisciplinary nature, involving game design, pedagogical modelling, computer science, and the application domain. The diversity of technologies, practices, and interventions makes it hard to explore solutions systematically. A new methodology called Multimodal Immersive Learning…

The application of network meta-analysis is becoming increasingly widespread, and for a successful implementation, it requires that the direct comparison result and the indirect comparison result should be consistent. Because of this, a proper detection of inconsistency is often a key issue in network meta-analysis as whether the results can be…

Systematic reviews are a time-consuming yet effective approach to understanding research trends. While researchers have investigated how to speed up the process of screening studies for potential inclusion, few have focused on to what extent we can use algorithms to extract data instead of human coders. In this study, we explore to what extent…

Bayesian estimations of complex regression models with high-dimensional parameter spaces require advanced priors, capable of addressing both sparsity and multicollinearity in the data. The Dirichlet-horseshoe, a new prior distribution that combines and expands on the concepts of the regularized horseshoe and the Dirichlet-Laplace priors, is a…

While multimodality and multiliteracies has been a concept for 25 years (Kalantzis & Cope, 2023; The New London Group, 1996), research on and application of the concept within text complexity measures has been limited. Attempts to assess multiliteracies and multimodality (Jacobs, 2013; Schmerbeck & Lucht, 2017; Wyatt-Smith & Kimber,…

The theoretical defensibility of applied linguistic intervention design provides the rationale for such designs, demonstrating how they are supported by theory, constructs, and analysis. Though founded upon science, imaginative design has its leading technical function as guiding lodestar. A scientific rationale for a plan underwrites the design,…

This dissertation aimed to explore the use of machine learning (ML) models in in-patient clinical settings. A literature review was conducted to identify existing guidelines and frameworks for such models, and an in-depth study was conducted on ML-based models to understand their behavior and implications on patient outcomes. A conceptual…
