Students display resistance, including academic dishonesty, at all educational levels. In the present study, we qualitatively examined the extent and incidence of academic misbehaviors by 101 US college students (M[subscript age] = 22.98 years, SD = 6.70). Using a combination of self-reported closed- and open-ended questions, we developed a…

Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields are in high demand. These fields all require sufficient math ability. However, many university students suffer from math anxiety. This study conducted an experiment to explore the influence of math anxiety on university students' challenging math problem-solving behavior and whether autonomy…

The research explores the metacognitive behaviours demonstrated by secondary school students with different mathematical achievement levels (outstanding, high, moderate and low levels of achievement) during solving a mathematical problem. The research uses a case study method and involves the participation of 36 students. The data, which were…

It was not known if, and to what extent classroom management training is related to the number of student misbehavior incidents. The purpose of this comparative and correlative study was to examine if, and to what extent differences exist between student disciplinary issues in classrooms with non-tenured teachers that completed classroom…

The effectiveness of the student conduct approaches of the mixed method model, a mixture of restorative justice and traditional sanctioning, and traditional sanctioning, known as the "model code," in student learning at historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) has been largely unexamined in existing literature. This…

Check-in, check-out (CICO), an intervention implemented with students at risk for behavioral disorders, addresses minor misbehaviors by providing students with a structured means of receiving positive adult attention. CICO reduces problem behaviors and improves appropriate behaviors of students with and without behavioral disorders. Research…

Violence by K-12 students is disturbingly common. Ensuring that schools have effective ways to identify and prevent such incidents is becoming increasingly important. Various concerning behaviors or disturbing communications, including direct threats, can precede acts of violence. Although removing every student exhibiting such behaviors might…

The study examines the psychometric properties of a translated version of the Integrated Teacher Rating Form (ITRF) for use in Greek schools. The ITRF is a 67-item targeted screening measure that can be used to identify students who demonstrate behaviors that interfere with their academic and social functioning and assist educators in designing…

Classroom management is one the most pressing problems that teachers face--and studies show that the challenges are only increasing. If student behavior is not managed successfully, the learning environment may become so chaotic, unstructured, and ineffective that teachers cannot teach and students cannot learn. "The Big Book of Behavior…

Recent research on more comprehensive models of student learning in adaptive math learning software used an indicator of student reading ability to predict students' tendencies to engage in behaviors associated with so-called "gaming the system." Using data from Carnegie Learning's MATHia adaptive learning software, we replicate the…

Background: In 2023, the US state of Texas passed a bill on vaping in school -- House Bill 114 (HB 114) -- which took effect in Texas public schools on 1 September of that year. HB 114 mandates that any student caught vaping in school be placed on a Disciplinary Alternative Education Program (DAEP). The efficacy of HB 114 may be contingent, at…

Using data extracted from the Parent and Family Involvement in Education Survey of the 2019 National Household Education Surveys Program, this study used a series of linear probability models to examine the association between family-school relationships and exclusionary discipline. The sample included 15,360 U.S. families of K-12 non-homeschooled…

This study aims to determine the effect of the STEM-based learning model on collaboration skills and determine the effective contribution of the STEM-based learning model to collaboration skills in the chemistry subject of buffer solution material. This study uses a quantitative quasi-experimental study with a posttest only with control group…

Education innovation is important to ensure that we are providing the best support and preparation for our children for all aspects of their lives. Therefore, it is important to examine and improve our practices in all aspects of education, including how we respond to challenging student behaviors.

The present study examined the academic antecedents of declining peer social status. Participants included 545 (311 boys, 234 girls) Finnish students followed from the 1st through the 4th grade (ages 6-8 at outset). Each year, teachers completed assessments of academic task avoidance and students completed standardized measures of reading and math…
