The scalability and accessibility of quality professional development (PD) is an ongoing concern in the teacher education community, yet little research has been conducted on potential solutions. We aimed to address this gap by developing an interactive, virtual PD program that uses intelligent tutoring systems and provides instant feedback to…

OSPI through the Office of Native Education (ONE), successfully administered the Tribal School Opioid Education Pilot Project. This one-year pilot project distributed grant funding ranging from $90,000-$107,500 to five State Tribal Education Compact schools (STECs) and conducted comprehensive research into tribally-centered opioid and fentanyl…

Background: California's unprecedented grant investment in the community school strategy through the California Community Schools Partnership Program (CCSPP) offers a significant opportunity for transformative, equity-centered, whole-child school reform (Maier & Niebuhr, 2021). Community schools are grounded in partnerships that schools…

Background/Context: Previous studies have consistently found that increases in school spending predict positive educational outcomes (Jackson & Mackevicius, 2021). More recent work estimated that ESSER spending overall helped support recovery (Dewey et al., 2024; Goldhaber & Falken, 2024), yet little research has examined which types of…

Purpose: This paper examines the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in organizational training and development through an evidence-based lens, addressing the gap between technological enthusiasm and pedagogical effectiveness in workplace learning contexts. Design/methodology/approach: An integrative literature review methodology was…

Current approaches to language teaching highlight the importance of Language for Professions and Specific Purposes (LPSP) courses. These courses not only prepare learners for professional tasks but also foster twenty-first-century skills like problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration. Despite the growing body of LPSP research, there is a…

Purpose: This study examines the key determinants of intern engagement within the United Nations (UN) in South Korea, addressing growing concerns about workplace precarity. Despite the increasing significance of intern engagement, empirical research on its determinants remains limited, particularly in international organisations, such as the UN.…

Dysgraphia is a learning disability that impairs children's written expression, mainly handwriting but also coherence at the same time. This research work was conducted to know the effectiveness of Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT)-based intervention, in assisting children with dysgraphia to enhance their writing skills. The…

Increasing rates of teacher attrition have exacerbated the shortage of teachers in regions of the United States. In response, some scholars have proposed initiatives that promote the professionalization of teaching, hoping to attract and retain new teachers through greater classroom autonomy and stronger professional development. Others have…

Purpose: Challenges in teaching the engineering design process (EDP) at the high-school level, such as promoting good documentation practices, are well-documented. While developments in educational artificial intelligence (AI) systems have the potential to assist in addressing these challenges, the open-ended nature of the EDP leads to challenges…

Virtual Reality (VR) provides an immersive learning (IL) experience by simulating real-world scenarios that bridge the gap between theory and application. VR simulations are interactive and enhance student engagement across a range of concepts, from simple to complex. India and Russia share similar cultural and historical backgrounds, and both are…

The Australian Education Research Organisation (AERO) acknowledges the need for a deeper understanding of the implementation process in early childhood education and care (ECEC) -- that is, a better understanding of the missing link between evidence-based practices and improved teacher and educator practice, and outcomes for children. Effective…

Generative AI technologies are rapidly transforming educational practices, creating both opportunities and challenges for teacher-preparation programs. As these advanced tools become increasingly prevalent in classrooms, understanding the factors that influence pre-service teachers' acceptance and adoption of such technologies has become…
