Typical internal assessment practices of academic libraries such as instructional or reference statistics can be valuable measures but provide a limited view of overall academic librarian impact. To examine librarian work more comprehensively and with emphasis on institutional outcomes, Indiana University Bloomington Libraries conducted a time…

One of the most vexing challenges facing developmental researchers today is the statistical modeling of two or more behaviors as they unfold jointly over time. Although quantitative methodologists have studied these issues for more than half a century, no widely agreed-upon principled strategy exists to empirically analyze codevelopmental…

The more frequent collection of response time data is leading to an increased need for an understanding of how such data can be included in measurement models. Models for response time have been advanced, but relatively limited large-scale empirical investigations have been conducted. We take advantage of a large dataset from the adaptive NWEA MAP…

The current inclination, at the European level, to fund education in the form of projects radicalises the modern orientation towards the present as the attempt to bind a yet indeterminate future. This article proposes a close re-reading of Niklas Luhmann's sociological oeuvre in order to problematise the place of the present in modern education.…

Events and activities consist not only of sequences of individual actions, but also they form hierarchies comprising chains of low-level actions grouped together to form higher level activities. Therefore, observers face the task of not only segmenting a continuous event stream into discrete units, but also processing these units on an appropriate…

Purpose: Reusable takeaway food containers (RTFCs) are a newly emerging green packaging choice for the takeaway industry that can effectively reduce campus solid waste but are not yet well accepted. Therefore, this study aims to identify the key factors influencing university students' intention to choose RTFCs, seeking to enhance RTFC project…

At Mayfield Middle School, in order to create personalized and more meaningful learning experiences for the students, it was realized that a typical, traditional schedule was not always conducive to the types of learning experiences teachers wanted to create. Teachers had great ideas for projects and practices that would incorporate more critical…

The use of technology-based self monitoring (SM) interventions is becoming more popular, increasing the likelihood that SM interventions will have greater contextual fit within classrooms. SM has resulted in increases in desired school behaviors, such as increases in on task behavior, academic performance, and task completion for students…

The integration of computational thinking (CT) into school curricula highlights its importance in preparing students for future success. Despite its recognised importance, there is a lack of understanding about effective CT teaching methods, particularly at primary and elementary levels. Previous studies highlight how teachers' beliefs in their…

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the effects of sentence context, accent strength, and second language (L2) listening proficiency on word recognition accuracy and transcription time among Chinese learners of English for Pakistani-accented English. Method: Speech stimuli included 48 isolated words and 48 highly constraining sentences, each…

As the novel coronavirus began to rapidly spread worldwide in March 2020, emergency transitions to the remote education processes were adopted in all institutions so as not to interrupt students' learning. In this study, we intended to investigate the extent to which factors of online course design and student learning impact students' success…

The current study investigated the benefits of adolescents' participation in physical activity (PA), including physical education (PE) and leisure-time sports activity (LTSA), on their subjective wellbeing (SWB), namely social connectedness, depression, and aggression. Specifically, the study explored the mediating role of social connectedness in…

The current study was designed to investigate how varied time of day (ToD) could affect the acquisition of basketball game actions from different video formats. First-year physical education students (i.e., novice practitioners) were quasi-randomly assigned to three experimental conditions: continuous video, macro-segmented video, or…

In mathematics classrooms, it is common practice to work through a series of comparable tasks provided in a textbook. A central question in mathematics education is if tasks should be accompanied with solution methods, or if students should construct the solutions themselves. To explore the impact of these two task designs on student behavior…
