We investigated the effect of real-time technology-enhanced performance-based feedback delivered during three different routines on teacher practice and child outcomes. Participants were three early childhood special education teachers and three focus preschool children identified with autism spectrum disorder. We used a multiple-probe single-case…

Fathers' participation in early intervention services for children who are deaf or hard of hearing has increased, but few studies have examined the learning progress of skills learned in these sessions. The aim of this study was to compare the competence patterns of fathers and mothers in implementing auditory-verbal therapy (AVT) practices, and…

This study examined the interplay among self-confidence, teacher feedback, and English proficiency in terms of developing students' English oral presentation competence. The study involved learners in the fields of Sciences and Technology, and Humanities and Social Science (N=390; 75% female; 26% male). It looked at how presentation courses, which…

This study explored the relationship between learners' perceptions of native and non-native English-speaking teachers' teaching competence and their motivation for learning English as a foreign language (EFL).

Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have been proposed to show greater impairments in implicit than explicit mentalizing.
