Mixed reality simulations such as TeachLivE and Mursion have been increasingly utilised to prepare teachers for inclusive classrooms. The use of mixed reality simulations, which combine elements of both virtual and augmented reality, offers immersive and interactive experiences that can enhance teacher training in various ways. These simulations…

The intersecting crises of 2020 had profound impacts on disabled young children. Existing literature has centered on the challenges disabled children faced and the interventions they needed.

This quasi-experimental study investigated the impact of Coursemojo, an AI-powered literacy platform, on sixth-grade English Language Arts achievement in a large Texas district during the 2024-2025 academic year. The study compared 541 students using Coursemojo across two schools with 2,786 comparison students across 11 schools. Students using…

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the learning potential of French-speaking children, either with typical development (TD) or with developmental language disorder (DLD), when learning an invented inflectional morphological rule. We tested the children's performance in learning pseudomorphemes of gender and number with dynamic assessment…

However, this work sheds little light on the extent to which the predictive validity of screening assessments varies across teacher types or teaching contexts. The author uses information on…

The purpose of this discussion guide is to support SEAs and local education agencies (LEAs) in states with assessment-related State-Identified Measurable Results (SiMRs) in communicating assessment data in ways that are useful to stakeholders, and in improving data literacy among stakeholders so they can meaningfully participate in key State…

Employability agendas now pervade the higher education landscape of many Western nations. In Australia, employability as both a discourse and related set of practices has recently reached fever-pitch as a result of the "Job-ready graduates" policy reforms, which have generated an image of an 'ideal' job-ready graduate who selects a…

Disabled students have a right to access higher education. Yet, only about one-fifth of youth with disability in South Africa attend and complete tertiary education. The low uptake and throughput are attributed to systemic and structural barriers. The University of Cape Town's (UCT) Vision 2030 is to 'unleash human potential to create a fair and…

Policy research in education, particularly research addressing spending and student achievement, has the potential to inform decision-making by federal, state, and local policymakers on behalf of children and youth (Roza & Knight, 2022). However, little longitudinal research on local spending decisions has been conducted on behalf of students…

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a diverse, multicultural context which has introduced ambitious policies and strategic plans to accelerate inclusive education. The extent to which culturally responsive teaching is reflected in inclusive classrooms across the country has not been captured. This study used a cross-sectional survey methodology…

Contemporary perspectives suggest that some children are more sensitive to their caregiving environment than others. This prospective longitudinal study examined the role of environmental sensitivity in the developmental pathways of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), focusing on its early identification during the neonatal period.…

Introduction: Inability to self-regulate learning is likely to be an indication of internet/mobile phone use. When students have low self-regulation, this may negatively predict problematic smartphone use. Additionally, problematic smartphone use could be a predictor of academic procrastination. The aim of this study was to investigate the…

True to the field of Cultural Disability Studies in Education (CDSE), this project adopts an explicitly interdisciplinary approach in order to explore representations of disability and the related social attitudes and experiences. Disability studies and radio studies are brought together to predicate and inform the analysis of a sample of…
