This paper explores how internal characteristics of universities that reflect the structure of the budget and the makeup of the student body and academic staff influence the efficiency level of universities. We analyse a sample of 320 Russian public higher education institutions using the modern nonparametric methodology of an order-m conditional…

Organizations are keenly interested in employees trained in business analysis and robotic process automation. This is because those methods are growing in demand for improving efficiency in business processes. Business students exiting college must understand how to map out business processes and implement automation fundamentals to be competitive…

With the rapid emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in the academic realm, understanding their implications, advantages, and challenges becomes crucial. ChatGPT, a leading AI conversational model, has gained significant traction in educational settings, warranting a comprehensive investigation into its academic impact. This systematic…

In the United States, K-12 school finance is largely controlled by the states. Every year, hundreds of billions of dollars in public funds are distributed based on 51 different configurations of formulas, rules, and regulations to over 13,000 districts that vary in terms of the students they serve, their ability to raise revenue locally, and many…

Purpose: Online learning has come to stay in a technologically advancing world with increasing populations. The search for ways to make online learning more efficient and effective in some developing countries continues as the accompanying issues in developing country contexts abound. This paper explores the issues that underlie online learning…

This paper seeks to contribute to the area studies and development of the 2023 Annual Review of Comparative and International Education by doing a trend analysis on the amount of variance of student achievement explained by socio-economic differences between 2013 and 2019 using the ERCE database in Latin America and the Caribbean. It also seeks to…

The growing negative impact of human activities increases the effect of climate change. People must adapt and change their behaviour and attitudes towards solving current environmental problems and preventing new ones. Non-formal education, such as educational workshops on environmental topics, could give results in the short term. In this…

This research was carried out to analyse the efficiency on University International Research Collaboration (IRC) and examines disciplines that are popular areas for collaboration. Based on data for the years 2015-2021, an empirical study was conducted to determine how to implement Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) in 56 research partner countries in…

Educators and researchers have analyzed various image data acquired from teaching and learning, such as images of learning materials, classroom dynamics, students' drawings, etc. However, this approach is labour-intensive and time-consuming, limiting its scalability and efficiency. The recent development in the Visual Question Answering (VQA)…

This study investigates the organising practices of directors in Early Childhood Care and Development (ECCD) centres, focusing on Ghana and offering insights applicable to global contexts. The research examines how directors manage resources, define tasks, delegate authority, and align organisational functions to achieve operational and…

This study examined the relationship between trust in AI-powered educational technology (AI-EdTech) and school burnout among Turkish high school students and the mediating role of perceived usefulness and academic stress in this relationship. A total of 619 students (M[subscript age] = 15.95, SD = 0.94) participated in the study, and structural…

Current literature on higher education (HE) performance only considers the production of graduates and not graduate employment. The latter needs to be factored into the HE production model as it not only measures the true impact of HE institutions (HEIs), but also provides policy implications on how resources should be allocated. Furthermore, the…

Background: Videofluoroscopic swallow studies (VFSS) are integral to diagnosing and supporting dysphagia management. However, in many countries, only doctors are authorized to complete medical imaging request forms, in accordance with radiation safety regulations. This can impact workflow and timely access to VFSS. Enhanced scope of practice (ESP)…

This paper investigates the paradox of research productivity of higher-education institutions in the Arab Gulf Countries. Exploring the case of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) the article fills the gap in the literature on the Gulf higher education research efficiency. Despite the considerable investment into higher education, UAE universities…

Both a student-centered instruction approach and a classroom management technique based on the learning protocol are known as protocol-guided learning. This paper describes the protocol-guided learning model's implications for classroom practice and its impacts on classroom reconstruction with the aim of ensuring that learning actually occurs on…
