Scholars and practitioners seldom consider pedagogy as a starting point in their appreciations of the role of leadership in education. However, the rise of invisible pedagogies may warrant a revaluation of this practice. Invisible pedagogies are enabled by cloud-based learning management platforms and their data-driven algorithms and protocols,…

This study investigated the sentiment of Twitter discourse on Open Educational Resources (OER). We collected 124,126 tweets containing hashtags related to OER posted from January 2017 to December 2021. We performed fine-grained sentiment analysis using Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) to categorize tweets into five…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the internet memes about physical education (PE) to understand how these digital artifacts represent the attitudes and perceptions toward PE. Method: Using the netnography approach, this is a qualitative study in nature. A total of 241 digital artifacts were collected from nine different…

Generalist primary school computer science (CS) teachers are often reluctant to introduce CS activities that go beyond CS unplugged tasks. To address this challenge, we drew from constructive alignment principles to implement a new programming modality for primary school: the handwriting programming language (HPL). HPL brings programming…

Libraries are increasingly adopting information and communication technologies to enhance their services. To ensure all libraries can benefit, regardless of budget, this study highlights gLabel, a freely available open-source tool for barcode label development. The purpose of this paper is to promote gLabel for low-budget libraries by exploring…

The purpose of this opinion piece is to explore the potential of ChatGPT as a virtual assistant for transnational educators in the context of Finnish education export. It examines the possibilities and limitations of utilising ChatGPT to support short-term teaching assignments abroad. Utilising Su and Yang's (2023) framework for using ChatGPT in…

Background: School-Based Health Centers (SBHCs) have the capacity to overcome youth barriers to care. However, most schools do not have on-campus SBHCs. At Denver Health, a large safety net hospital with 19 SBHCs in Denver Public Schools, we developed a SBHC virtual care program (VCP) to link school nurses with SBHC providers to provide medical…

Recent research has shown that virtual settings can negatively impact interactions within groups. However, few empirical studies have looked at group creative processes in virtual teams, with most research to date focusing on individuals. To address this gap, an experimental study was carried out to compare the creative performance of groups in…

Creativity is often characterized by the capacity to generate novel ideas, explore unconventional approaches, and solve problems through intuition, curiosity, and innovative thinking. Assessing this multifaceted skill is both essential and challenging, especially in educational and game-based environments where creativity drives engagement and…

Background/purpose: Entrepreneurship training interventions (ETI) have rapidly grown in domestic and international higher education systems. There is evidence that education focusing on entrepreneurship programs can increase employability. Entrepreneurship has been the driving force behind this expansion as a survival approach for economic…

Several studies on student's understanding of the concept of the tangent line agree that the difficulties students have when dealing with lines tangent to curves at inflection points or tangent lines that have more than one point in common with the curve are due to a misconception of tangency that is limited to the geometric relationship between…

Background/purpose: There are two types of knowledge in an organization, namely tacit and explicit knowledge. This research aims to test the effects of the enhancement techniques of both types of knowledge on the principal's digital leadership and school organization improvement, to find the relationship among the variables, and to find effective…

The affinity space framework has proven useful for explaining and understanding teacher activity on social media platforms. In this study, we explore the 'dark side' of teacher affinity spaces by documenting a partisan teachers' group on an alternative social media platform. We used a mix of a priori and emergent coding to analyse screenshots of…

Multistage testing (MST), a variant of computerized adaptive testing (CAT), differs from conventional CAT in that it is adapted at the module level rather than at the individual item level. Typically, all examinees begin the MST with a linear test form in the first stage, commonly known as the routing stage. In 2020, Han introduced an innovative…

A key challenge in CSCL research is to find ways to support learners in becoming effective collaborators. While the effectiveness of external collaboration scripts is well established, there is a need for research into support that acknowledges learners' autonomy during collaboration. In the present study, we compare an external collaboration…
