Identifying a student's mental model is important for understanding scientific concepts. Dispersion and polarization are the sub concept of physics that studied in high school on light waves concept. This study aimed to develop dispersion and polarization conceptual inventory (DIPOLCI) to identify students' model mental using Rasch analysis. The…

The purpose of this research is to create a reliable and valid scale to assess AIlessphobia in Education (the fear of being without Artificial Intelligence in education) among university students. In three phases, a sample of 1378 undergraduate students from different faculties at a public university participated in the reliability and validity…

The use of technological devices, especially mobile devices, in language learning has increased the number of studies in this field. In this regard, it is essential to identify students' attitudes towards mobile-assisted language learning (MALL).

The main research question of this research study is how to design a valid and reliable holistic rubric to be used as a criterion for the comparison of the STEAM model by analyzing different countries' science curricula. Considering this question, STEAM model rubrics was created by examining the ways of shaping science education policies. The…

Background: Given that limited well-developed instruments are available to assess students' transdisciplinary STEM practices (T-STEMP), this study aims to develop and validate an instrument for examining secondary students' T-STEMP competence. According to the T-STEMP assessment framework proposed in our previous study, we developed items and…

Phonological awareness and phonological working memory are essential for successful language acquisition and development of literacy. Although this essence is language-universal, its degree varies for different languages, depending, in part, on language transparency. The current study analyzes the adapted versions of the pseudoword repetition test…

Student participation in Indonesia in activities that develop research skills, such as OPSI ("Olimpiade Penelitian Siswa Indonesia" or Indonesian Student Research Olympiad), remains low. A preliminary study to gather teachers' perceptions regarding research skills was also conducted by the author using a questionnaire; the results…

Reflexivity in quantitative research is central to questioning the ways in which the data is designed, collected and interpreted. It requires the researcher to be reflexive about their knowledge, their positionality, and the bias they may bring at each stage of the research. Unfortunately, though, limited evidence exists on the use of reflexive…

Transparency in high-stakes English language assessment has become crucial for ensuring fairness and maintaining assessment validity in language testing.
