The aim of this study is to validate an instrument to evaluate the teaching of mathematics through mathematical processes using a structural equation model. To that end, we have administered the instrument to 95 in-service Spanish teachers and we have also analysed the presence of mathematical processes (problem solving, reasoning and proof,…

E-Schoolbag is an integrated platform presented on the portable digital devices for educational purposes. Successful and sustainable integration of e-Schoolbag into the classroom often demands teachers to be equipped with essential knowledge, skills, and willingness to employ it on a voluntary basis. The purpose of this study was to examine if…

The goals of the research were to inform whether the theory of planned behavior (TPB) is a valid model to explain Indonesian preservice teachers' (PSTs) use of information and communication technology (UICT) during teaching practices, to report best factor affecting PSTs' UICT during teaching practices, and to elaborate differences regarding UICT…

This study uses the capability-opportunity-motivation behavior framework as a theoretical basis and partial least squares structural equation modeling as an empirical research method to identify factors that influence the interest in studying abroad. We rely on primary microdata collected through a self-administered questionnaire among Egyptian…

The advancement in internet-based learning technologies together with the national agenda towards globalized online education in Malaysia have prompted the learning management system (LMS) to become an important channel for institutions of higher education to effectively deliver education to students. Since user resistance has been known to be a…

Student success is often treated as an observed variable, or something that you can measure directly with a single instrument. Single course outcomes such as final course grade or learning gain on an assessment have become synonymous with success in undergraduate science education research. Continually relying on these narrow course outcomes to…

Structural equation modeling (SEM) considering how students' non-cognitive attributes influence first-year college student persistence remain extraordinarily rare--as are studies that test and expand upon published structural models or studies that include college student food security. This study addresses each. We surveyed "Beginner"…

This study investigated the relationships between prospective teachers' STEM activity preparation skills (STEMaps), genders, and mathematics achievements (MA). In the research, a total of 89 prospective elementary school teachers participated. Data were collected by STEM Activity Preparation Forms requiring prospective teachers to prepare STEM…

The authors sought to examine how queer and trans students' residential living relates to perceptions of campus climate. Using Hurtado and colleagues' (2012) Multicontextual Model for Diverse Learning Environments, we utilized structural equation modeling to examine queer and trans students' perceptions of campus climate as mediated by…

Test-taking motivation (TTM) has been associated with test performance in low-stakes testing contexts. However, there have been few studies about TTM in high-stakes testing contexts, and these have contradictory results. Our aim was to explore the relationship between test-taking effort and test performance in a real-life high-stakes testing…

This paper presents a new methodological model termed Airbag Moderation: That the relationship between two variables varies as a function of a third, and that this third variable depends upon one of the others. Airbag Moderation extends and bridges a number of theories and it can be implemented using existing statistical models and software…

One of the educational objectives of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 is to develop students who are creative and critical thinkers. The present study thus examined Saudi elementary teachers' reflective thinking, based on the ideas that teachers who possess reflective thinking will have direct influence on their students' thinking, and that reflective…

Higher education institutions are increasingly recognizing the importance of learning culture as a core factor for students' sustainable learning and development. While the development of blended learning environments in higher education institutions has been steadily increasing in recent years, but how to establish a blended learning culture in…

This study aims to explore the relationship between learning climate, in the dimensions of learning facilitation and error avoidance, learning potential of the workplace (task-related and interactional) and innovative work behavior. Survey data were collected from a sample of 374 employees and their supervisors from an automatic food distribution…

The aim of this study is to investigate the augmented reality (AR) immersion experiences of university students studying in science education. The relationship between interest, usability, emotional investment, focus of attention, presence and flow was examined for university students studying in the science education department who used AR…
