College dropout crisis has become one the major problems in U.S. Higher Education. Over the past decade, universities nation-wide have been trying to better understand the specific factors that influence undergraduate degree completion and have initiated multiple educational practices to increase the quality and quantity of students they graduate.…

School counseling is a dynamic, evolving profession that has shifted throughout the decades to address students' needs in response to societal changes. The American School Counselor Association National Model has been instrumental in outlining the current role of school counselors and the components necessary for comprehensive school counseling…

Higher education administrators are responsible for assisting suspended students with reentry into an institution if a student's suspension appeal is granted. Interventions and retention efforts vary, but one effective method may be faculty/student mentoring. The purpose of this mixed methods study was to assess the effects of structured mentoring…

In response to Earnest (2019) who asserted "too often studies involving time in maths education are divorced from duration, the quantity that time measures…therefore future studies ought to incorporate the experience of duration into the study design" (p. 25), the purpose of this study was to begin mapping possible conceptualizations…

The purpose of the qualitative exploratory case study is to examine student veterans' perceptions of the utility of the 8 Keys to Veterans' Success (8 Keys) during their pursuit of associate degrees from a community college in Georgia, post-military service. The study explored the student veteran perspective by answering three research questions:…

Although there is an abundance of research on the association of school poverty (or socioeconomic status) and test score level, there is very little rigorous longitudinal evidence on the cumulative effects of exposure to differing school contexts. Drawing from methods used first in epidemiology and then in neighborhood effects research, we use…

Recent advances in sensor technology, including eye-gaze tracking, have introduced the opportunity to incorporate gaze into student modelling within an embodied learning context. The produced multimodal data is used to uncover cognitive, behavioural, and affective processes during the embodied learning activity. However, the use of eye-tracking…

Using data from 179 undergraduate men from 38 higher education institutions, we examined if adherence to masculine norms and social dominance hazing endorsement changed over three years of membership in a historically white college social fraternity. In addition, we examined if changes in conformity to specific masculine norms affected their…

We used 14 years of state licensure and classroom data from Virginia to follow 19,878 special education teachers (SETs) who completed either the alternative route (AR) internship or traditional programs. Findings reveal that a greater percentage of SETs of color participated in AR programs compared to traditional licensure programs, while a…

Students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may have a difficult time transitioning frequently throughout a school day, and problem behavior can be more apparent during this time. Valuable academic time can be preserved by decreasing the time it takes to transition between tasks. Hine et al. (2015) found that computer-assisted instruction…

Academic emotions play an important and complex role in self-regulated learning (SRL). However, few studies have examined how academic emotions unfold in different phases of SRL and how the changes in these emotions influence learning performance. The current study examines 98 students' academic emotion trajectories and profiles across the three…

This study examined how task complexity affected the temporal characteristics of self-regulated learning (SRL) behaviours in clinical reasoning. Eight-eight (N = 88) medical students participated in this study. They were required to diagnose two virtual patients of varying complexity in BioWorld, an intelligent tutoring system (ITS) designed to…

This paper reports on responses of 645 students (N = 6540) on 4 University of London (UoL) distance learning courses to a variety of course components. Published research on best practice in student learning stresses the value of active learning and of student collaboration. By contrast, our respondents report that they regard more active…

The ability to extract patterns from sensory input across time and space is thought to underlie the development and acquisition of language and literacy skills, particularly the subdomains marked by the learning of probabilistic knowledge. Thus, impairments in procedural learning are hypothesized to underlie neurodevelopmental disorders, such as…

Poor mental well-being has been associated with negative student success outcomes among college students. Health and wellness coaching programs have been implemented in college campuses to address gaps in well-being support services. This pilot study evaluated a health and wellness coaching program at a large, urban university. A total of 499…
