Novice teachers are more likely than their more experienced counterparts to leave the field teaching, which further exacerbates the national teacher shortage. This creates a need to take concerted steps to prepare and retain novice teachers. The Every Student Succeeds Act emphasizes using evidence-based classroom and behavior management practices…

In this study, two literacy teacher educators developed a lesson plan activity to be completed during a focus group interview. Protocols for the focus group were developed using the AI literacy framework. The purpose of the study was to explore preservice teachers' (PSTs) interactions with GenAI and how GenAI functioned as evaluators of their…

This study used phenomenological approaches to investigate the lived experiences of rural school counselors (RSCs) working during the COVID-19 pandemic. Information concerning how the pandemic has impacted RSCs is lacking. The current study was a part of a larger investigation aimed at understanding RSCs' use of trauma-informed practices. The…

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), a new educational model where AI and teachers work together to improve learning outcomes has emerged. Although previous research has focused on comparing the effects of AI and teacher feedback, the division of labor between them has received little attention. Focusing on enhancing…

This study aims to explore the relationship between job characteristics, job burnout, and work-to-home interference, particularly focusing on the influence mechanisms within the group of music teachers in universities in Guangdong Province, China. Based on the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model and the work-to-home interference theory, this study…

The Present Levels of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance (PLAAFP) section in Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) is critical for aligning educational goals with students' current capabilities and needs. However, inconsistencies and legal deficiencies in PLAAFP statements persist due to inadequate data collection and fragmented…

Effective feedback plays a critical role in enhancing the writing skills of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. This study examines the comparative effectiveness of three feedback approaches--Teacher e-feedback, AI-based feedback, and a hybrid model--in enhancing the writing performance of Iranian intermediate-level EFL learners.

Persistent literacy skills deficits hinder educational attainment, limit labour market opportunities, and exacerbate socioeconomic inequalities. This paper evaluates the causal effect of an AI-driven Computer-Assisted Learning (CAL) program implemented by the Government of Madrid, which features personalised, adaptive content and real-time…

This study aimed to investigate how mathematics teachers' feedback on homework is perceived from both teacher and student perspectives. A phenomenological research design was employed, involving six elementary school mathematics teachers and six middle school students from a provincial center in Eastern Anatolia. Data were collected through online…

Purpose: College placement assessments often overlook multilingual learners' full linguistic abilities and literacy engagement, as standardized tests primarily assess English proficiency rather than how students interact with academic texts. Directed Self-Placement (DSP) offers an alternative approach through self-assessment, with some models…

In response to the growing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in educational settings, particularly in language learning, there is a pressing need to understand the psychological and pedagogical factors that influence learners' emotional and academic experiences. EFL learners were selected for this study because language learning involves…

This study investigated the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) models and signal detection processes to generate meaningful visual and ChatGPT-like narrative feedback on second language (L2) English intelligibility. To test the effects and perceptions of such techniques, three groups of learners (N = 90) received visual and narrative feedback…

Researchers and practitioners from different disciplines (e.g., educational science, computer science, statistics) continuously enter the rapidly developing research field of learning analytics (LA) and bring along different perspectives and experiences in research design and methodology. Scientific communities share common problems, concepts,…
