The transition from Primary to Compulsory Secondary Education (CSE) often causes difficulties for students developing reading skills in English as a second language (ESL) and can increase stress and disengagement, particularly within non-bilingual Spanish contexts. Existing research draws attention to these difficulties and the influence of ESL…

STEM education aims to develop 21st-century skills, support economic growth and promote gender equality in STEM fields. It is known that gender stereotypes play a significant role in the formation of STEM identity. The most important factor preventing some high school-level female students from pursuing STEM careers is their lack of participation…

Assessment in education has shifted from summative to formative models in recent decades, with technological advancements facilitating flexible implementation anytime and anywhere. Stemming from this phenomenon, this study aims to identify the trends in mathematics learning assessment in Southeast Asia through a systematic literature review (SLR)…

This mixed-methods study investigated the effectiveness of Generative AI (GenAI) powered intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) in undergraduate physics education, specifically comparing learning outcomes between students using Khanmigo (Khan Academy's AI tutor) and the Google search engine. The study involved 69 undergraduate students divided into…

Computer-supported collaborative argumentation (CSCA) is an effective pedagogy to help deepen the learners' understanding of content knowledge and develop their 21st-century competencies such as communication and collaboration skills, as well as creative and inventive thinking. In this study, the Spiral Model of Collaborative Knowledge Improvement…

To address the demand for engineers and computer scientists in the workforce, and the fact that some engineering students dropout or change majors, we explored how the motivational climate in an undergraduate computer science (CS) course was related to students' motivational beliefs and academic and career goals. Participants included 310 students…

Recent advancements in generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) have drawn significant attention from educators and researchers. However, its effects on learners' programming performance, self-efficacy and learning processes remain inconclusive, while the mechanisms underlying its efficiency-enhancing potential are underexplored. This study…

As intelligent textbooks become more ubiquitous in classrooms and educational settings, the need to make them more interactive arises. An alternative is to ask students to generate knowledge in response to textbook content and provide feedback about the produced knowledge. This study develops Natural Language Processing models to automatically…

Computing education has historically sought to align the education students receive in their formal programs with the proficiency required to succeed in the workplace. In recent years, research in this area has focused on "dispositions" which are affective qualities that are integral to completing work tasks and a component of…

This study investigates the role of national ICT agencies in facilitating access to digital academic content in Ugandan higher education. Specifically, it examines the impact of the Research and Education Network for Uganda (RENU) and the National Information Technology Authority-Uganda (NITA-U) on two contrasting institutions, Makerere University…

In recent years, the intersection of music and coding has emerged as a cross-disciplinary approach to engage learners in both musical and computational expression. This article examines the motivations and framing of recent music and coding research through an analysis of 65 articles published between 2004 and 2024. We survey the key findings of…

Today's trend of teaching has changed quite significantly. After conducting online teaching, innovations in teaching are mushrooming. One such innovation explored in this study is the use of a mobile application as a classroom intervention tool in a TOEFL preparation class. The objectives of this study were to investigate students' performance…

This study aims to examine STEM graduates' retention in Canada after completing Canadian postsecondary programs. The retention of STEM graduates has improved in the last decade for both Canadian and international students. However, retention varied by educational and demographic characteristics. Canadian STEM graduates generally showed higher…

This book explores how parents became education partners in new and unexpected ways during the COVID pandemic. Emerging from a range of research studies, it reframes how researchers, educators, school leaders, and policymakers can establish and foster more equitable partnerships with families. The authors ultimately argue that COVID schooling…

Computer-based peer review systems have received extensive attention due to their rapid development and broad application. Although studies have generally found strong assessment validity and positive learning effects, several have found negative reactions in students. More work is needed to understand the reasons for students' negative reactions…
