The purpose of the present research was to examine the interplay between teacher feedback, parental involvement and peer support and on homework engagement of students. The research adopted correlation research model, and the participants of the research were students (n = 450) in the central region of Turkey. In the research, 'Teacher Feedback in…

On average, deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) children have difficulty developing expressive spoken vocabulary comparable to hearing peers. Yet, there are no evidence-based practices to guide classroom instruction for teachers of the deaf. Retrieval practice--a robust learning strategy--has been shown to improve children's retention of vocabulary,…

Background: Life satisfaction is a key component of students' subjective well-being due to its impact on academic achievement and lifelong health. Although previous studies have investigated life satisfaction through different lenses, few of them employed machine learning (ML) approaches. Objective: Using ML algorithms, the current study predicts…

Studies on learning strategies across cultures in higher education inform the internationalisation of teaching and learning. Previous comparisons relied on geographical generalisations (e.g., "Asian", "Western", "Latin-American") or only variable-centred methods, which can overgeneralise the contexts they represent.…

Suspension and expulsion have been documented concerns in childcare centers throughout the United States for nearly 20 years. This study examined suspension and expulsion practices in community childcare centers two years into the COVID-19 pandemic (May 2022). Survey data from 131 administrators of community childcare programs were analyzed. It…

Marginal maximum likelihood, a common estimation method for item response theory models, is not inherently a Bayesian procedure. However, due to estimation difficulties, Bayesian priors are often applied to the likelihood when estimating 3PL models, especially with small samples. Little focus has been placed on choosing the priors for marginal…

This quantitative study investigates the predictive power of machine learning (ML) models on degree completion among adult learners in higher education, emphasizing the enhancement of data-driven decision-making (DDDM). By analyzing three ML models - Random Forest, Gradient-Boosting machine (GBM), and CART Decision Tree - within a not-for-profit,…

Within the discipline of school psychology, social justice is a fundamental concept and an aspiration of practitioners. Recently, a myriad of pleas has been made for school psychologists to act as agents of social justice change. Further, bullying, which is a prevalent issue in schools, has been identified as a school-based social justice…

Successful entrance into specialty training represents a pivotal stage in the careers of medical officers. Selection for entrance into specialty training programs may encompass criteria including research experience, regional exposure, clinical experience, professional achievements, diversity, equity and inclusion factors, and extracurricular…

Mentorship is a valuable component of the growth of junior faculty, but mentorship and the mentorship network in the broadly defined agricultural education discipline is not well understood. This study describes junior faculty mentees in the discipline and their mentors, as well as the mentorship interactions, including the social network of…

This case study examines the critical role school leaders play in teacher data use. Aligned with previous literature, we find that educators perceive high levels of support for data use and prefer formative data; however, observations showed a data use method unlike previously described inquiry cycles. From these findings we propose a new data use…

Young children's lie-telling behavior is associated with their theory of mind (ToM) development. However, current evidence is primarily based on cross-sectional studies, with very little longitudinal evidence on the causal relation between the two constructs. The current study provided much-needed cross-lagged longitudinal evidence on the…

Researchers from multiple disciplines have found that fractions and algebra knowledge are linked. One major strand of research has identified children's "units coordination" structures as crucial for success with fractions and algebra via multiplicative reasoning, whereas a second strand of research points to "magnitude…

The number of clinical prediction models sharing the same prediction task has increased in the medical literature. However, evidence synthesis methodologies that use the results of these prediction models have not been sufficiently studied, particularly in the context of meta-analysis settings where only summary statistics are available. In…
