As internet use continues to rise, school counselors encounter challenges related to problematic internet behaviors among secondary students. This qualitative study examines the experiences of Georgia school counselors when working to prevent, manage, and support these behaviors. I used a semi-structured format to interview 15 school counselors in…

This study applies a posthuman lens to the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) Workforce Framework, examining two key Work Roles in cybersecurity education. Employing a novel posthuman coding scheme, the associated Tasks, Knowledge, and Skills (TKS) statements were analyzed. Findings reveal significant posthuman elements within…

This study uses a qualitative research design with narrative inquiries to extend existing research on college choice and intercollegiate athletics to include the real-time voices of thirteen high school student-athletes. The study explores student support systems that may affect a student's success in finding an opportunity to continue playing…

This interpretive phenomenological study explores faculty and academic advisors' experiences in supporting students with mental health challenges. Guided by the Theory of Planned Behavior, which suggests that personal beliefs, prior experiences, and familiarity with symptoms influence behavior, the study examines participant narratives to identify…

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer, (LGBTQ) students experience a chillier campus climate on college and university campuses than do their heterosexual peers (Rankin et al., 2010). Colleges and universities have worked to expand resources for LGBTQ students. Campus Pride, Inc. developed the Campus Pride Index (CPI) that allows colleges…

"Accompanist" is the old term. "Collaborative pianist" is the new one. "Accompanist" implies a mostly subservient role, whereas "collaborative pianist" gestures toward a more equitable relationship between the soloist and pianist, no longer a mere follower. Degree programs that prepare collaborative piano…

Increasing student diversity and the global emphasis on inclusive education necessitate a critical focus on teacher preparedness in implementing inclusive practices within classrooms. Teacher preparedness in inclusive practices is essential to ensure all students thrive in a truly inclusive educational environment. Universal Design for Learning…

In recent years, the integrated approach of STEM disciplines (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) has been adopted in the Middle East to improve students' scientific capacities and their formative thinking. Nevertheless, this approach encounters complications in the application, including many due to gender differences. Middle…

This study aimed to develop e-learning for pre-service science teachers and investigate the effect of this e-learning on their attitudes toward learning and teaching. A mixed method was employed in this research. Participants were 22 pre-service science teachers at one public university in Thailand who enrolled in the Educational Psychology and…

The current surge in the usage of Internet, multimedia, and educational technologies as well as the exigencies of the COVID-19 pandemic has imposed ICT-driven education globally. One of the tools deployed for ICT-mediated teaching and learning is the Learning Management System (LMS). Unfortunately, some lecturers' adoption or use of the LMS for…

This dissertation investigates the problem of how variations in the intensity of three selected constructs--multimedia signaling, speed and pacing, and cognitive engagement prompts--affect attention and learning outcomes in online learning environments. The study explores the intersecting cognitive theories of cognitive load, higher order thinking…

For social and emotional learning (SEL) initiatives to have the greatest positive impact on students, they must be implemented schoolwide. There is an urgent need for schools to shift away from traditional SEL frameworks toward transformative SEL (TSEL). TSEL program implementation cannot be done in isolation; rather, it must be fueled by a shared…

An asset-based perspective on math education means starting with what students already know instead of focusing on what is missing. This approach elevates student thinking and reasoning skills. In this way, educators acknowledge that all students bring prior experiences, strengths, talents, and resources to the learning process and can contribute…

In response to developing technology standards and innovative technology applications, it is important to measure the knowledge of education standards and practice of teachers. This study includes 226 prekindergarten to fifth grade Latine teachers employed in a Latine-serving school district in a United States/Mexico border community. Survey data…

Computational modelling is widely used in biological science. Therefore, biology students need to learn computational modelling. However, there is a lack of evidence about how to teach computational modelling in biology and what the effects are on student learning. The purpose of this intervention-control study was to investigate how knowledge in…
