The relationships between visuo-spatial abilities and geometry performances in school-aged children were examined. A battery of tests assessing non-verbal reasoning, visuo-spatial mental imagery, and academic achievement in geometry (i.e., geometric knowledge and geometric problem-solving competencies) was presented to 162 8-9.5-year-old pupils…

Few studies have explored the learning opportunities different audiovisual genres may create for vocabulary learning. Even fewer have looked at how learners' viewing experience is affected by individual differences (IDs) in vocabulary size, attention, inhibition, or working memory. Such IDs have been shown to mediate early and long-term vocabulary…

Global policy makers increasingly adopt subjective wellbeing as a framework within which to measure and address human development challenges, including policies to mitigate consequential societal problems. In this review, we take a systems-level perspective to assemble evidence from studies of wellbeing, of collective intelligence, and of…

Supporting school communities following a critical incident (CI) is a stressful, yet established, part of an educational psychologist's (EP's) role. The authors aim to explore whether emotional intelligence (EI), the number of CIs worked, and coping strategies predict EPs' CI self-efficacy, and to gather EPs' views on CI training. Ninety-five EPs…

One of the most important issues in accessible science education is creating a laboratory workspace accessible to blind students or students with visual impairments (VI). Although these students are often provided access to the science lectures, they are usually denied full participation in hands-on laboratory work. Current solutions to this…

This paper focuses on the opportunities and challenges associated with the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in academic library operations. In the quest to render fast, effective and efficient services, academic libraries have adopted different technologies in the past. Artificial intelligence technologies is the latest among the technologies…

The complexity of physics concepts in online learning environment probably will only benefit certain group of students. Thus, there are suggestions that the approach of delivering physics concepts in online learning environment shoud be conducted in various ways. The purposed of research was to investigate the effect of online multiple…

For this 14th iteration of the International Conference on Educational Data Mining (EDM 2021), the conference was held completely online. EDM is organized under the auspices of the International Educational Data Mining Society and was meant to happen in Paris, France. The official theme of this year's conference was Shifting Landscape of…

There has been a long-standing issue of sparse discussion forums participation in online learning, which can impede students' help seeking practices. Researchers have examined AI techniques such as link prediction with network analysis to connect help seekers with help providers. However, little is known whether these AI systems will treat…

Colleges have increasingly turned to predictive analytics to target at-risk students for additional support. Most of the predictive analytic applications in higher education are proprietary, with private companies offering little transparency about their underlying models. We address this lack of transparency by systematically comparing two…

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has changed education dramatically, with the sudden shift from face-to-face to emergency remote teaching. Online learning environments may facilitate data-driven instructional process; yet, our understanding regarding data-driven decisions is still limited. This quantitative study examined types of learners'…

This paper critiques the dominance of exam-driven education systems and argues for a curriculum that balances cognitive achievement with creativity, emotional intelligence, and cultural competencies. Drawing on examples from Asia and Africa, the study highlights how different cultural models of schooling--emphasizing discipline, resilience, and…

The purpose of this study is to compare emotional intelligence levels of students studying in 2017-2018 summer school of Balikesir University School of Physical Education and Sports with their life satisfaction by some demographic characteristics. This is a descriptive study. The research population is composed of 865 students studying in…

The present study was organized around 2 main objectives: first, to analyze emotional intelligence (EI) both in aggressors and victims of school violence, considering 3 dimensions of EI--emotional attention, emotional clarity, and emotion regulation--and second, to analyze empathy in aggressors and victims of school violence, taking into…

This study is an evaluation of learning style profiles and multiple intelligence domains of level seven trainee primary school teachers who chose to specialise in mathematics at the university where the research took place. Whilst this study focusses on mathematics specialists studying at post graduate level the information could be adapted to…
