The purpose of this study was to develop a measurement instrument that scholars and practitioners in international education can use as a means of exploring whether and how individuals who come into contact with international education programs develop a greater sense of cultural humility. Specifically, the study described here outlines the four…

Educational assessment is used throughout the world for a range of different formative and summative purposes. Wherever an assessment is developed, whether by a teacher creating a quiz for their class, or by a testing company creating a high stakes assessment, it is necessary to decide how long the test should be. Specifically, how many questions…

Student understanding of climate change is an active and growing area of research, but little research has documented undergraduate students' knowledge about the biotic impacts of climate change. Here, we address this literature gap by presenting the Inventory of Biotic Climate Literacy (IBCL), a concept inventory developed to assess undergraduate…

This article reports the development and validation of the new Process and Outcomes from Service-Learning (POSL) questionnaire, a self-report measure that assesses students' service-learning experiences as well as their attainment of a comprehensive set of intended service-learning outcomes. The study involved three phases: (a) construct…

Identifying a student's mental model is important for understanding scientific concepts. Dispersion and polarization are the sub concept of physics that studied in high school on light waves concept. This study aimed to develop dispersion and polarization conceptual inventory (DIPOLCI) to identify students' model mental using Rasch analysis. The…

The purpose of this research is to create a reliable and valid scale to assess AIlessphobia in Education (the fear of being without Artificial Intelligence in education) among university students. In three phases, a sample of 1378 undergraduate students from different faculties at a public university participated in the reliability and validity…

Background: Given that limited well-developed instruments are available to assess students' transdisciplinary STEM practices (T-STEMP), this study aims to develop and validate an instrument for examining secondary students' T-STEMP competence. According to the T-STEMP assessment framework proposed in our previous study, we developed items and…

The field of information security is experiencing growing popularity within Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), reflecting the increasing recognition of its importance in safeguarding sensitive data, and mitigating cyber risks. This shift highlights the critical need for effective security practices within educational environments, where data…

Teachers who demonstrate academic optimism actively design suitable pedagogical approaches, exhibit proficient classroom management skills, and effectively engage students in the learning process. Nevertheless, the current measurement tools used to assess teachers' academic optimism are constructed solely from the teachers' perspective and fail to…

This study aims to examine the psychometric properties of a scale developed to measure teachers' ability to use artificial intelligence tools in education. The scale was originally proposed as having 33 items across 5 sub-dimensions by Chat GPT-4, an AI system. To establish content validity, the scale form was submitted to expert review. An…

Student participation in Indonesia in activities that develop research skills, such as OPSI ("Olimpiade Penelitian Siswa Indonesia" or Indonesian Student Research Olympiad), remains low. A preliminary study to gather teachers' perceptions regarding research skills was also conducted by the author using a questionnaire; the results…

The development of generative artificial intelligence (AI) has started a conversation on its possible uses and inherent difficulties in the field of education. It becomes essential to understand the perceptions of pre-service teachers about the integration of this technology into teaching practices as AI models including ChatGPT, Claude, and…

Assessing preservice teachers' inclusive classroom management self-efficacy (ICMSE) is critical for effectively implementing classroom management practices. Although the literature provides well-established instruments, many do not cover all domains of ICMSE. Above all, there is a notable absence of instruments assessing this multidimensional…

Researchers have called for undergraduate courses to update teaching frameworks based on the Modern Synthesis with insights from molecular biology, by stressing the molecular underpinnings of variation and adaptation. To support this goal, we developed a modified version of the widely used Assessing Conceptual Reasoning of Natural Selection…

Purpose: This study extends research on one of the most frequently cited school leadership frameworks by examining the psychometric properties of the instrument designed to assess many of the practices included in that framework. Design/methodology/approach: Using data collected from 1,401 teachers the study examined the instrument's measurement…
