Background: The implicit learning deficit hypothesis claims that impaired implicit learning underlies deficits in social-communicative abilities associated with developmental language disorder (DLD). However, previous research testing this hypothesis revealed inconsistent results and largely used process-impure sequential learning tasks. Aims:…

Sentiments expressed on massive open online course (MOOC) discussion forums significantly influence learning effectiveness and academic performance. The evolution of learning sentiments on MOOC discussion forums is a dynamic process; however, a gap exists in the current understanding of the interplay between evolving sentiments and their impact on…

Workplace supervisors support students by coaching and assessing performance during work-integrated learning (WIL). This exploratory mixed-method study explored how workplace supervisors support WIL students. Workplace supervisors from the Massey University MSc (Nutrition and Dietetics) program, New Zealand completed an online survey (n=133), and…

Leadership is crucial for success and should be nurtured from an early age. As society rapidly evolves, traditional notions of leadership must adapt to remain relevant. This study aims to identify and prioritize leadership characteristics and skills that parents and teachers consider most in need of development and to investigate approaches for…

Autistic students demonstrate poor academic performance which may be related to challenges in learning behaviors such as organization, planning, study skills, and so forth. Most studies report on summary scores; however, there may be value in understanding specific strengths and challenges to better inform assessment and intervention efforts. The…

This research, grounded in the extended technology acceptance model, aimed to explore the relationships among factors influencing Korean EFL learners' acceptance of ChatGPT for English learning in a voluntary usage context. To this end, a questionnaire was distributed to college students who had used ChatGPT for language learning, utilizing a…

Podcasts are increasingly being used for educational purposes within and outside of the classroom. In the English as a New Language (ENL) classroom, podcasts have been used as a source of authentic auditory input to supplement traditional pedagogical materials. The creation of podcasts by learners has been widely used to encourage language…

Purpose: Declining soil fertility is worrying in sub-Saharan Africa. Various technologies serve to mitigate or rebuild soil fertility, but uptake by farmers, especially smallholders, is low. The study addresses this adoption problem in a novel way, assessing empirically many factors from various domains (economic, socio-demographic, individual,…

Stroke rehabilitation often necessitates coordinated intervention services; however, few studies have examined stroke-based interprofessional education (IPE) interventions for graduate speech-language pathology (SLP) and occupational therapy (OT) students. The purpose of this mixed methods study was to examine graduate SLP and OT students'…

The systematic review permitted the characterization of training programs in digital teaching competence using an analysis of their structure, implementation, and results. A comprehensive search was conducted across five databases, namely Scopus, Web of Science, Redalyc, Science Direct, and LENS, to retrieve scientific articles published between…

Background: Children and adolescents with high callous-unemotional traits (CU) are more likely to engage in aggressive and antisocial behaviours, such as cyber-bullying, but the relationship is not direct, as it may be influenced by other factors. Objective: In the absence of substantial supporting evidence, the purpose of this study was to…

The integration of artificial intelligence in educational environments has the potential to revolutionize teaching and learning by enabling real-time analysis of students' emotions, which are crucial determinants of engagement, motivation, and learning outcomes. However, accurately detecting and responding to these emotions remains a significant…

Language testing research has suggested that placement accuracy can be an important factor in the consequences of placement decision-making. However, previous studies primarily have used a one-shot teacher judgment of placement accuracy, suffering from a lack of students' perspectives of their time-varying experiences. The present study aimed to…

Previous research suggests that book reading and screen time have contrasting effects on language and brain development. However, few studies have explicitly investigated whether children's brains function differently during these two activities. The present study used functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to measure brain response in 28…

Purpose: This study examined whether job and personal resources could buffer the negative effects of technostrain and information and communication technology (ICT) availability demands on employee well-being. Design/methodology/approach: The data were collected among Finnish comprehensive school teachers (n = 323) between December 2020 and…
