Schools have become a primary context for assessing and addressing social, emotional, and behavioral difficulties in response to the youth mental health crisis. However, traditional paper-based assessments are often hindered by time constraints and rater bias, limiting their effectiveness for early identification and intervention.…

Virtual reality-based teaching training helps to overcome the limitations of traditional microteaching, especially in terms of the authenticity and complexity of simulated teaching scenarios. However, most of the existing related studies focus on the enhancement of trainees' teaching skills and relatively neglect the characteristics of teaching…

Technology is the most widely used tool in daily life activities in today's society. This is primarily due to its accessibility for all types of users and its ability to quickly respond to problems that arise in everyday tasks. Its widespread use is extending into various fields of knowledge, including education. Within this domain, the use of…

Artificial intelligence (AI) education empowers teachers to enhance the educational process. Although conventional face-to-face or fully online training methods each have their strengths, they do not fully address challenges such as the rapid pace of AI advancements, differences in teachers' ability to grasp AI knowledge, and the need for flexible…

Background: Conventional reflective learning methodologies in programming education often lack structured guidance and individualised feedback, limiting their pedagogical effectiveness. Whilst computational thinking (CT) offers a systematic problem-solving framework with decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction, and algorithm design, its…

The COVID-19 pandemic triggered a global pivot to virtual care (VC) technologies. While there has been considerable academic work exploring the "how" of VC, few studies have explored the impact of this pivot, its unintended consequences, and its governing rationales. This study addresses this gap in relation to care, professional…

Background/purpose: This study investigates the impact of emoji feedback on students' assessments and learning outcomes. Aims include emotions in feedback systems to assess the effects of feedback, learning outcomes, and general performance, among other educational outcomes. Materials/methods: This study employed a mixed-methods approach,…

Objective: The Conners Continuous Performance Test-3 (CCPT-3) is a computerized test of attention frequently used in clinical neuropsychology. In the present factor analysis, we seek to assess the factor structure of the CCPT-3 and evaluate the suggested dimensions in the CCPT-3 Manual. Method: Data from a mixed clinical sample of 931 adults…

Background/purpose: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly shaping assessment practices in higher education, promising faster feedback and reduced instructor workload while also raising concerns about fairness and transparency. This study examines how AI technologies are transforming assessment processes and the experiences of stakeholders.…

This research was carried out to determine the opinions of science teacher candidates about digital game addiction. For this reason, the phenomenology method which one of the qualitative research methods, was used. The sample of this study consists of 5 science teacher candidates studying at different universities in the 2022-2023 academic year.…

Background/purpose: Science education has gained more prominence as a means of educating students for the demands of a technologically evolved world. Understanding the variables influencing students' science achievement is vital for educational policymakers and practitioners. Materials/methods: The study used a hierarchical multiple regression…

Background/purpose: This study investigates the efficacy of iPad-based interventions in improving communication skills among students with autism, focusing on two participants with minimal functional speech. Materials/methods: A multiple baseline design was employed, consisting of two phases--a baseline phase (A), where the participants had access…

Cyberbullying affects US youth, adolescents, and adults and can occur in various settings. Among the academic literature exploring cyberbullying, most discuss cyberbullying of youth and adolescents within the K-12 academic setting. While some studies address cyberbullying targeting adults, a limited amount of research has been conducted on the…

In recent years, the application of explainability techniques to automated essay scoring and automated short-answer grading (ASAG) models, particularly those based on transformer architectures, has gained significant attention. However, the reliability and consistency of these techniques remain underexplored. This study systematically investigates…

A crucial aspect of this research is determining the effectiveness of the tool developed for this study. This tool is built upon the understanding that technology continually evolves and significantly impacts higher education. It is believed that technology plays a vital role in how students learn in college today. This belief is supported by the…
