Education doctoral programs in South Africa focus on inducting students into the scholarship of research. Opportunities for engaging doctoral students in work-integrated learning (WIL) to develop their scholarship of teaching are scarce for aspiring teacher educators. In response to the absence of induction programs for doctoral candidates how one…

Clustering methods are often used in physics education research (PER) to identify subgroups of individuals within a population who share similar response patterns or characteristics. Among these, k-means (or k-modes, for categorical data) is one of the most commonly used clustering methods in PER. This algorithm, however, is distance-based rather…

Generative AI is revolutionizing education by enhancing personalized learning, fostering innovation, and transforming traditional teaching methodologies, making it a critical tool for the future of education. This study aims to explore the impact of generative AI (Gen-AI) technologies, focusing on academic and learning performance, publication…

The Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC) of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has transformed international research and policy debates on the assessment of adult skills. Although research using PIAAC data is accumulating, little is known about how these data are used and what…

This text presents an informative overview of Conservative-led education policy over the last 14 years. The book provides a broad and detailed picture of the developing education landscape in England during this period, highlighting the transformational and sometimes 'radical' reforms that the country has seen. Crucially, the book draws together…

Context: Many randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in educational research compare innovative academic programs to business-as-usual instruction (BAU), with the goal of drawing causal inferences regarding their efficacy. However, the changing landscape of education matched with variations of content standards, teaching approaches, and local…

The aim of this review article is to assess the use of Quizlet as a supplementary web 2.0 tool for vocabulary acquisition in English language settings. To our knowledge there is a dearth of research that thoroughly examines the use of Quizlet. To this end, this paper demonstrates the results of a systematic review of the literature regarding…

Students with intellectual disability have encountered challenges related to inclusive placement, spending less time in general education classrooms, and experiencing slower progress in accessing inclusive settings. To support their needs and success in inclusive classrooms, research-based and effective interventions should be provided. We…

This book is a transdisciplinary, international collection situated within a genealogy of experimental walking practices in the arts, arts-based research, and emergent walking practices in education. It brings together emerging cartographies of relation amongst walking practices ranging across arts-based, ecological, activist, decolonising, queer,…

This book offers reflections from Arts-Based Educational Research (ABER) scholars who, since 2005, were awarded the American Educational Research Association ABER Special Interest Group's Outstanding Dissertation Award. The book includes essays from ten awardees who, across diverse artistic disciplines, share how their ABER careers evolve and…

We propose an innovative, effective, and data-agnostic method to train a deep-neural network model with an extremely small training dataset, called VELR (Voting-based Ensemble Learning with Rejection). In educational research and practice, providing valid labels for a sufficient amount of data to be used for supervised learning can be very costly…

Game based-learning have been widely promoted to overcome the difficulties encountered by beginners to learn programming. However, there are many issues to address for the implementation of game-based learning. Indeed, game-based learning is not limited to adding game elements such as rewards to a learning situation, but it rather consists of…

Background/Context: Within critical research broadly, scholars increasingly turn to stories and storytelling to pursue equity in educational contexts. Such scholarship does, however, primarily focus on the composition or creation of stories. Expanding the scope of storytelling research, this article turns to queer and trans knowledges to highlight…

This article describes a project involving 13 community focus groups on the topic of anti-racism and belonging where the researchers concluded each group with a robust discussion about how the group would prefer to receive the findings from the project. Analysis of this data, existing literature, and the practical experiences of the researchers…

Doctoral education is the primary time in which scholars learn about research methodologies and begin to develop their own research agendas and skills. Yet, to date, few research studies have examined graduate students' perceived value of, and access to, training in multiple research methodologies. The purpose of this study was to explore special…
