This qualitative case study explored graduate students' views (n=6) on AI-supported applications and an AI-enabled blockbased coding tool (PictoBlox) in science education. Data were gathered over a 39-hour implementation via a semi-structured interview form and screen captures from the activities, and analyzed with content analysis. Participants…

Evaluation and assessment in education have attracted in the last years more attention than the preceding decades. The lack in the initial teaching education programs about evaluation seems to cause the reproduction of evaluation experiences that they have had as students. In this sense, it is important to recognize the actual patterns of…

This study examines the impact of university sustainability programs on students' eco-behaviours in Turkey, focusing on the roles of perceived institutional support, personal environmental efficacy, and the potential for greenwashing.

While the benefits of cross-age programming within youth have been understood for decades, such programs are rarely employed with curricula specific to social and emotional learning (SEL) or with a wide age range between the two groups of youth. This article describes the findings of a pilot implementation and feasibility study of the…

This study aims to develop a location-based augmented reality (LBAR) Android application and test its effectiveness in supporting orientation programs for newly enrolled students. The application was designed to facilitate easier adaptation to the environment and university life for novice students. Unity, ARCore SDK, and the AR+GPS Unity Package…

Climate change is recognised globally as an urgent crisis, prompting the integration of sustainability into education to address future challenges beyond disciplinary boundaries. In STEM education, integrating science, technology, engineering, and mathematics empowers students to address environmental, societal, and economic concerns for a better…

Through multisensory ecopedagogies, models of environmental land art and place-responsive or 'part of the place event' art-making in outdoor spaces or the 'outerness' (Cobbs), this article explores the importance of student teacher engagement outside comfort zones and shedding their schooled baggage into the 'existential territories of childhood'…

Research has shown that emotional intelligence programmes can help improve adolescents' mental health, well-being, and behaviour. Although they are primarily applied in the school context, such programmes can also be adapted to specific populations. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of an emotional intelligence programme for…

Faced with record-low unemployment and a shrinking workforce, Poland is seeking to engage potentially millions of economically inactive people to prevent future labour shortages and reduce social welfare expenditure. The 2025 Act on the Labour Market and Employment Services expands the mandate of Regional and Powiat Labour Offices to include…

Purpose: This paper aims to investigate and respond to the critical need to address skill mismatches and operational challenges within supply chain management (SCM) firms. The study explores various aspects of how learning interventions address the skill mismatches of SCM professionals. Design/methodology/approach: By leveraging focused group…

Taking the perspective of a language program director (LPD), this practitioner research (PR) study describes how analysis of learners' reflections written for an advanced undergraduate German course in the United States helped an LPD see how students had experienced learning grammar in lower-level instruction. The study analyses a semester-long…

While Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents new challenges for doctoral education, it also offers an opportunity to refocus doctoral programmes on their fundamental purposes: contributing to knowledge and developing critical researchers. This article draws on the literature on doctoral education to contend that a fixation on efficiency…

Background: The burdens of student debt and financial instability have contributed to a significant number of students pausing or stopping out of their postsecondary education. Nationally, it is estimated that over 36 million Americans have some college credits but no degree, a reflection of this growing problem (National Student Clearinghouse…

This report documents the associations between teacher and student absenteeism across grade levels and before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic to understand whether teacher absences represent a lever for change and account for the increase in student absences over time. Data were drawn from Rhode Island from the 2018 to 2024 school years,…

This research examines the integration of mobile applications with the Egyptian Knowledge Bank (EKB) to support the professional development of teachers, with a particular focus on computer science educators. Given the barriers teachers face in attending traditional training programs, such as time constraints, location, and costs, Mobile Learning…
