Grouping students according to their abilities and promoting deeper interaction and moderation are key issues in improving computational thinking in collaborative programming. However, the distribution characteristics and evolving pathways of computational thinking in different groups have not been deeply explored. During the course of a…

Existing studies on Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) examine learners' engagement processes but have not explored links between them and motivations to enroll. In our previous work, we identified intrinsic, professional, and prosocial motivations for taking MOOCs. In this study, we used process mining to compare the course engagement patterns…

Nowadays, team learning and blended learning are becoming increasingly important to today's university students. Knowledge sharing (KS), as an important factor that is the bridge between learning and cooperation and communication, can affect the effectiveness of students' learning. However, current research has paid less attention to…

Based on the Achievement Goals Theory and Students' Approaches to Learning, we proposed a model in which students' self-efficacy acts as a mediator between students' performance-approach goals orientation and their approach to learning in dealing with academic tasks throughout an academic year. We used structural equation modelling (SEM) to test…

This study investigated 3- to 5-year-olds' (N = 64, 37 girls, 62.5% White, data collected between 2021-2022) ability to use probabilistic information gleaned through active search to appropriately change or maintain expectations. In an online fishing game, children first learned that one of two ponds was good for catching fish. During a subsequent…

Objective: The purpose of this study was--(a) to determine COVID-19 vaccination rates among college students, (b) to assess what proportion of college students self-report currently or previously having COVID-19, and (c) to test theory of planned behavior (TPB)-based constructs in predicting the COVID-19 booster vaccination behavioral intentions.…

The testing effect is a well-established phenomenon in cognitive psychology that refers to enhanced long-term retention of information due to active recalling through testing. Following a cross-disciplinary translation of the testing effect into behavioral principles, we systematically replicated the previous findings in a behavior-analytic…

Background/purpose: Attitudes toward environmental conservation have become a key factor in addressing global ecological challenges. Positive environmental attitudes play a crucial role in adopting sustainable practices. This study aimed to assess the attitudes of university students from the Peruvian Amazon toward environmental conservation.…

This paper explores UK school students' protest activism relating to their schools' policies and practices, drawing on two datasets: 1) a newspaper analysis of media reports relating to school protests between 2000 and 2021; 2) a survey of 800 secondary school pupils in Wales. Drawing on social movements literature and adapting concepts for the…

This study probed praising among preschoolers in natural settings and investigated their developmental changes. In study 1, teachers in preprimary educational facilities answered queries about the frequency and described episodes of praising among preschoolers. The results indicated that children approximately 3-year-old commonly praised friends,…

Objective: While college student drinking has been studied utilizing many different theories and approaches, it is unclear how these theories may overlap in their explanation of problematic drinking. Rather than relying on one theory, examining overlap between multiple theories of alcohol use may lead to a better understanding of the motivational…

The study aimed to identify the degree to which students at Shobak University College practice the elements of digital citizenship related to education. The researcher used the descriptive survey method through the electronic questionnaire instrument. The study sample consisted of 163 students from al-Shobak University College who were selected…

This paper examines the study space preferences of college students in their respective university colleges. The study utilized principles of visual ethnography to collect participatory photographic data. Student participants completed three tasks, a demographic survey, participant-supplied photographs, and an exit interview. We recruited from the…

This repeated cross-sectional pilot study examined the impact of environmental education on reducing overall waste generation among students enrolled in an environmental health course from Fall 2020 to Spring 2023. The data included trash generation, single-use plastic, and paper products. Each student logged their daily usage of these waste…

Bullying victimization is a school problem that warrants attention. While most work has focused on understanding bullies and victims, it is important that research explore how to promote bystander behavior during bullying as a mechanism to deter bullying in schools. Perceptions of the school climate may impact the likelihood of a student's…
