Adaptive behavior is paramount for independent living and is varyingly impaired in different neurodevelopmental disorders. This study aimed to investigate differences in adaptive behavior between children with autism spectrum disorder and social communication disorder, two conditions characterized by deficits in social communication. Data from 232…

This research explores and compares the learning ecologies of international students studying through internationalisation at a distance (IaD) and internationalisation abroad (IA) by investigating their experiences of first year of master's study with a UK university. We do so by using our previously proposed Revised Ecological Systems Theory as a…

Of individuals with an intellectual disability, 1% are recognized as having a profound intellectual disability and commonly present at a mental age of roughly three years or below. While inclusive music education models and therapeutic models have received considerable attention, there is a scarcity of literature on music education for students…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore how new research on crop protection practices is communicated to end-users by investigating which knowledge-implementation processes are recommended in crop protection literature. Design/methodology/approach: This analysis is completed through a qualitative systematic review of literature on…

In their first three years, children begin to maintain topics and add new information in conversation. In turn, caregivers create opportunities for language learning. Compared to children with no family history of autism (typical likelihood, TL), the younger siblings of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are at elevated likelihood (EL)…

The purpose of this study is to measure communicative apprehension, fear of negative evaluation, and test anxiety as predictors of students' anxiety with speaking achievement. The second goal was to determine the relative importance of the three predictors in predicting speaking achievement in Department of Islamic Education, Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu…

The Compassionate Communications project at the University of Exeter is changing the way in which student-facing staff across the institution communicate with our student body. At the heart of this work is a focus on ensuring we as a university are inclusive, accessible, and supportive in the way in which we provide information to our increasingly…

Flipped learning has been recognized as a promising pedagogical model for methodological progress in educational environments. Studies have shown the effectiveness of flipped learning when used with appropriate educational technologies and learning strategies. On the other hand, comprehensive guidance is required to combine this pedagogical model…

This study examined community college students' mathematics and academic self-efficacy in synchronous live online and asynchronous traditional online learning environments. Additionally, students' self-efficacy as it related to students' feelings of choice and preference regarding course modality was examined. This study took place during the…

This study examined an intervention package incorporating an iPad-based augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) application, Proloquo2Go, to improve wh-question-answering skills in a 15-year-old adolescent with autism. A single-case, multiple baseline design across three types of wh-questions ("what," "where," and…

Timely and coordinated early communication supports are critical to ensuring positive outcomes for all children. This is especially important for autistic children. Autism can be associated with delayed or varied communication development, impacting a child's participation and inclusion in the early years. The purpose of this study was to describe…

In this article, we present the asynchronous phases of digital mathematical discussions conducted along a didactic path on proof through the use of algebraic language with Grade 9 classes. We aim at characterising the digital environments where these discussions unfold (chat and Padlet) by examining students' asynchronous interactions, through the…

In this paper, I present my position on why TESOL teachers need to develop their intercultural nonverbal communication competence.
