This study aimed to compare the effects of project-based learning (PjBL) and online lessons on the learning achievement of Thai Grade 9 students in the topic of the Internet of Things (IoT), with conventional teaching included as a control group. The study utilized a quasi-experimental design, with three groups: PjBL, online lessons, and…

Advances in brain imaging have led to a paradigm shift in neuroscience research, moving from focusing on individual brain structures to investigating neural networks and connections. However, neuroanatomy education still tends to concentrate on discrete brain regions. Two separate experiments in undergraduate neuroscience courses investigated…

There is growing interest in the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to assist in various educational tasks, including writing assessment. However, the comparative efficacy of human and AI-powered systems in this domain remains a subject of ongoing exploration. This study aimed to compare the accuracy of human raters (teachers and…

AI-enabled assessment of student papers has the potential to provide both summative and formative feedback and reduce the time spent on grading. Using auto-ethnography, this study compares AI-enabled and human assessment of business student examination papers in a law module based on previously established rubrics. Examination papers were…

The 21st century learning is an educational approach aimed at preparing students with relevant skills, literacy and knowledge in the digital era. The purpose of this study was to improve learning ownership, digital literacy, and students' cognitive learning outcomes through the application of the "Kuartet Biologi" application in…

This research study compares student outcomes and perceptions in two in-person sections of the same community college business law course: one with the previously used commercial textbook and the other with an open textbook created by the faculty specifically for the course outcomes. The faculty was motivated to create the open textbook to make…

Research has shown that teachers' perceptions and beliefs about good teaching are closely related to their teaching style and, consequently, to effective classroom learning and student achievement. Although much research has been conducted on good mathematics teaching, its sub-discipline, geometry, is often neglected. Therefore, this longitudinal…

The effectiveness of an organization depends highly on the performance of its employees. Performance appraisal is an instrument used to evaluate and enhance employee performance. This study aimed to compare performance appraisal practices in private and public secondary schools, focusing on aspects like appraiser's attitude, motivation, feedback,…

Purpose: Although commonly defined as a speech disorder, stuttering interacts with the language production system in important ways. Our purpose is to summarize research findings on linguistic variables that influence stuttering assessment and treatment. Method and Results: Numerous topics are summarized. First, we review research that has…

Behavior analysts typically rely on visual inspection of single-case experimental designs to make treatment decisions. However, visual inspection is subjective, which has led to the development of supplemental objective methods such as the conservative dual-criteria method. To replicate and extend a study conducted by Wolfe et al. (2018) on the…

This article studied two methods to detect mode effects in two credentialing exams. In Study 1, we used a "modal scale comparison approach," where the same pool of items was calibrated separately, without transformation, within two TC cohorts (TC1 and TC2) and one OP cohort (OP1) matched on their pool-based scale score distributions. The…

Background: Verbal fluency tasks are routinely used in clinical assessment and research studies of aphasia. People with aphasia produce fewer items in verbal fluency tasks. It remains unclear if their output is limited solely by their lexical difficulties and/or has a basis in their executive control abilities. Recent research has illustrated that…

To slow the spread of COVID-19, many people now wear face masks in public. Face masks impair our ability to identify faces, which can cause problems for professional staff who identify offenders or members of the public. Here, we investigate whether performance on a masked face matching task can be improved by training participants to compare…

The purpose of this research study was to provide a quantitative approach to the study of induction programs as a means to demonstrate their importance to lessening teacher attrition rates. The collection of quantitative data collected through an online Likert style survey was intended compare multiple induction programs and determine which…

This paper offers a systematic review of the literature on the nature of empathy in educational research. This synthesis of the literature will reveal four salient themes that SoTL authors have used to understand the concept of empathy. The value of empathy, according to SoTL researchers, will also receive a summarized treatment in this paper.…
