Background: The feedback offered to students in audience response systems may enhance conformity bias, while asking closed-type questions alone does not allow students to externalize and elaborate on their knowledge. Objectives: The study explores how writing short justifications and accessing peer justifications as collective feedback could…

What can the affective turn mean for literacy educators who believe their work can lay the foundation for a life filled with meaningful reading pursuits, for students who "become" readers and "do" reading? Because reading occurs across and within an elaborate composite of time, space, relationships, histories, discourses, and…

Unprecedented increases in child exposure to diverse videos has resulted in a need to understand how children process videos. While children show distinct activations in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) when presented with children's movies, multiple factors influence child neural response to screen media, namely, presence of a specific parent, gender…

Little work has been done to investigate the implementation of innovative technologies, such as virtual reality (VR) and 3D printing, during English language arts instruction in juvenile detention facilities. This study explored how technology integration in restricted spaces can lead students to develop connections and empathy toward others. The…

As an educator, and a student myself, I believe that the current system of graded assessments used ubiquitously in education systems worldwide is quite flawed. Although certain issues arise in its implementation, a suitable alternative might be to consider gradeless assessments. Thus, rather than completely advocating for a change in the way…

Considering that women, people of color, and minoritized faculty are expected to provide disproportionate emotional labor, this study focuses on how "immigrant" women faculty navigate emotional labor in U.S. academia. Based on interviews with 28 "immigrant" women across nationality, race/ethnicity, rank, and discipline, this…

Exams are designed to rank students objectively by their abilities, including elements such as time limits, the number and difficulty of questions, and negative marking policies. Using data from a lab-in-field experiment, we develop and estimate a model of student behavior in multiple-choice exams that incorporates the effects of time constraints…

Background: Accumulating evidence substantiates the adverse impact of psychological maltreatment on children's emotion regulation. Nevertheless, scant research has explored the relationship between psychological maltreatment and automatic emotion regulation (AER), along with its underlying neural mechanisms. Objective: This study aims to…

Project-based learning (PBL) is a learning method considered suitable for the spirit of the times and the period because of its ability to promote the acquisition of the skills required in the 21st century. In recent years, this method has been gaining increased expression in education systems worldwide and the Israeli education system as well.…

Education is undergoing a fundamental transformation, necessitated and made possible by contemporary technology, notably Artificial Intelligence. Central to this transformation is the realisation that the post primary learners will lead in terms of what each will study, how, where, when and to what purpose. This will entail a refocussed and…

Anthropogenic climate change and environmental crises are pressing challenges of our time, with changes to the climate system observed in every global region. Disastrous impacts on nature, including people, have already been observed in the form of drought, floods and extreme heat events across the planet. This study examines the role of an…

The aim of this study is to investigate how students graphically represent qualitative and quantitative aspects of co-varying quantities in an embodied digital learning environment that provides feedback in the form of an animation showing what kind of motion their graph represents and how this feedback helped them to overcome typical graphing…

In contemporary music education, innovative technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (AI)-based tools, play a crucial role. The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of AI-based tools in enhancing students' success and creativity. The study involved 158 students from a leading music institution, who were divided into…

Background: Delayed auditory feedback (DAF) has been used in the treatment of stuttering, providing different results across different populations and age groups. Aims: This study examines the impact of delayed auditory feedback (DAF) on stuttering-like disfluencies (SLDs) in the spontaneous speech of Jordanian individuals who stutter. Methods…

Previous research on grid questions has mostly focused on their comparability with the item-by-item method and the use of shading to help respondents navigate through a grid. This study extends prior work by examining whether lexical similarity among grid items affects how respondents answer the questions in an experiment where we manipulated…
