That the manifestation of cheating varies between disciplines is rarely discussed, an unspoken assumption being that assessment takes the form of written prose supported by a bibliography. Students and academics from disciplines, such as mathematics, not fitting this model can feel that their work is regarded as an aberration. 'Plagiarism' is not…

Notwithstanding the multiple descriptions and principles associated with trauma-informed schools (TIS), the field lacks a well-defined operational definition of TIS. This scoping review aimed to characterize TIS intervention components and implementation strategies described in published studies of TIS. This review also examined the extent to…

The rapid development of artificial intelligence has driven the transformation of educational evaluation into big data-driven. This study used a systematic literature review method to analyzed 44 empirical research articles on the evaluation of big data education.

We study how human capital diversification, in the form of double majoring, affects the response of earnings to labor market shocks. Double majors experience substantial protection against earnings shocks, of 56%. This finding holds across different model specifications and data sets. Furthermore, the protection double majors experience is more…

The use of exclusionary discipline (ExD) was compared for U.S. public pre-kindergarten (Pre-K) and K-12 grades within the same school. ExD rates were 10 times higher in K-12 than in Pre-K when calculated for all schools but ExD rates were comparable for schools that reported at least one case of ExD in Pre-K. Additionally, disparities in the use…

This study explores the social nature of learning and discusses its implications for student assessment. To this end, we analyzed a sample of unique first-hand accounts of students seeking help with academic work, relying on the grounded theory approach for the identification of incentives for academic support (n = 807), and used time-series…

This study aimed to understand the factors predicting creative activities and creative achievements among university students. Based on a recently proposed framework of 10 creative spaces, we hypothesized that exploring those creative spaces, alongside the personality trait openness to experience and divergent thinking abilities would predict…

Post-colonial higher education contexts experience a never-ending recuperation from the multiple violences imposed by colonisation. Coloniality has largely been successful in maintaining a hegemonic hold by white settler colonisers in various facets of higher education despite attempts to decolonise this sector and attempts at transformation. The…

Undergraduate STEM students have limited opportunities to apply course-acquired knowledge in the community. Experiential learning opportunities that connect students with community partners offer one impactful way to apply course learning to communities within and beyond the university. While studies have established the value of experiential…

The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of a behavioral based intervention program on minority student behavior. The Breakfast Club was an intervention created with the goal of improving the negative behavior of minority adolescent students. The participants in this study were minority, high school students who displayed frequent…

COVID-19 had a significant impact on adolescents. Local governments mandated schools to cancel in-person schooling for the first time in history due to the heightened exposure to the coronavirus. The shift to virtual learning during the COVID-19 pandemic removed students from the supportive academic and social environment of the physical school…

The purpose of this phenomenological investigation was to identify if perceptions exist among five elementary school principals assigned to non-accredited and accredited elementary schools in the Richmond Metro Area of Virginia that the effective use of the correlate, "cultural competence" should be used as a key leadership objective to…

Parenting behaviors have long been recognized as crucial to children's healthy development. However, examinations of the etiology of these behaviors are less prevalent. The current study investigated the driving forces behind parental warmth and discipline, particularly whether they are related more to traits within the parent or reactions to…

This article offers a different reading of the Tyler rationale, juxtaposed with Foucault's "Discipline and Punish." The author suggests that Tyler's rationale shares many of…

Research has shown that students of color continue to lag behind their White peers on standardized test scores and rates of college graduation (Gardner-Neblett et al., 2023) and that exclusionary discipline practices have contributed to this disparity and create negative outcomes for students (Bottiani et al., 2023; Cruz et al., 2021). Subjective…
