The present study was designed with the purpose of contributing to the existing scientific literature about the presence of Dark Tetrad personality traits--Machiavellianism, psychopathy, narcissism, and sadism--in aggressors and victims of school bullying, also taking into account the possible gender differences in both roles. The results,…

As digital learning tools continue to reshape education, the debate over their effectiveness compared with traditional textbooks remains unresolved. This study provides fresh insights by examining how important feature-level factors--portability, navigability, and visual appearance--shape users' confirmation and satisfaction with iPads and…

The present study aimed to examine the mediating role of mother's quality of life and moderator role of mother's resilience in the relationship between sleep problems in children with ASD and mothers' stress. One hundred and eighty eight children and their mothers participated in the present study. Questionnaires were used to collect data. The…

The shift towards active pedagogies in higher education that emphasize students' engagement in their own learning in and outside of the classroom has increased the ubiquity of online learning and assessment platforms for engaging students in such learning. Online learning requires self-regulated learning, which is a cyclical and temporal process…

There is wide agreement that regulations are an important part of students' learning. However, there is lack of theorizing and methods that look at the intricate relations between regulations and the mathematical content of learning. In this study, our goal is to develop a theoretical and methodological lens for looking at regulations in students'…

When teaching STEM courses, it is important to introduce state-of-the-art techniques. Students need to learn how to conduct experiments, analyse data and choose the most effective approaches to address meaningful situations. Here we present the assessment of the implementation of a structured inquiry-based activity aimed at teaching students about…

A rapidly growing body of research indicates that the quality of children's relationships with teachers can affect students' emotional, behavioral, and school related adjustment. The vast majority of this research has relied on measures that assess teacher--rather than student--perceptions of these relationships. In this study, we administered a…

Students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) characteristically experience academic difficulties. There is growing evidence that the continuum from academic competence to underachievement is partially explained by executive function (EF; neurocognitive attention-regulation processes) and stress. Yet, there is scarce research…

In Norway 5.8% of students report being bullied as much as three or more times a month [UDIR. 2021a. Student Survey 2020 [Elevundersøkelsen 2020]. https://www.udir.no/tall-og-forskning/finn-forskning/rapporter/elevundersokelsen-2020-nasjonale-tall-formobbing-og-arbeidsro/]. The present study investigates the likelihood of students being bullied…

Within the context of a multi-tiered framework for behavior support, intervention intensification is warranted when a Tier II intervention fails to adequately address a targeted behavior. A traditional approach to intensification is to shift from standardized supports at Tier II to individualized and more resource-intensive supports at Tier III.…

The COVID-19 pandemic fundamentally changed how colleges and universities manage teaching and learning. "Recentering Learning" unpacks the wide-reaching implications of disruptions such as the pandemic on higher education. Editors Maggie Debelius, Joshua Kim, and Edward Maloney assembled a diverse group of scholars and practitioners to…

This study examines the attitudes and opinions of 161 students, future primary school teachers, in Romania towards mathematical word problems during the 2023-2024 academic year. The investigation aimed at identifying their views on the importance, utility, and challenges of word problems. The results indicate that most students recognize the…

As problem posing has been shown to foster students' problem-solving abilities, problem posing might serve as an innovative teaching approach for improving students' modelling performance. However, there is little research on problem posing regarding real-world situations. The present paper addresses this research gap by using a modelling…

Math anxiety (MA) and math performance are generally negatively correlated (Barroso et al., 2021; Namkung et al., 2019). However, the mechanisms underlying this negative association remain unclear. According to the attentional control theory (ACT; Eysenck et al., 2007), anxious individuals experience impaired attentional control during problem…

The aim of this study is to determine the primary school fourth-grade students' understanding of four operation symbols, using them in arithmetic operations and word problems. Phenomenology research design, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the research. The participants of the research consist of 123 students, attending the…
