The longstanding call to prioritize science education has gained momentum, particularly with the noticeable changes aligned with reform-era practices. This quantitative study explored the relationship between policy, time allocation, and teacher practices in elementary science education, guided by constructive learning theory as the theoretical…

The purpose of this qualitative, phenomenological study was to present, through interviews, the experiences of women adult learners in higher education with full-time jobs and family responsibilities.

Despite this evidence, attending to multiple streams of information and entertainment while doing homework, writing a…

Most educators agree that students' academic grades should be kept separate from measures of organization, engagement, or timeliness. But how do we move toward the goal of all students' being engaged in learning, giving effort, and being conscientious about deadlines without attaching those behaviors to a grade? This seems to be the million-dollar…

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the learned resourcefulness levels and academic procrastination of students studying in sports departments. A total of 372 students who studied in Bingöl University at School of Physical Education and Sports participated in the study as volunteers. In the study, the personal…

Faculty members experience a gap between how they would prefer to spend their work time and how they actually do so. In this article we report results from a four-week workshop called "The Terrapin Time Initiative." It was guided by theories of behavioral economics and behavioral design, which suggest that small changes to the context,…

In this study which was conducted to determine the effects of the COVID-19 process on time management of foreign language teacher candidates, qualitative design was used. The study group was formed by criterion sampling, which is one of the purposeful sampling methods. The criteria determined were for the participants to work, to have pedagogical…

Building upon psychological momentum theory, we draw an analogy between motivational constructs proposed herein and the physical principles of mass, inertia, and momentum. From these principles, we derived constructs representing academic inertia in states of both low and high momentum. The sample consisted of 105 African American college students…

This study investigated the college students' level of academic performance and determined the impact of academic stress on their English academic performance.
