Studies on the lexical semantic abilities of children with autism have yielded contradicting results. The aim of the current review was to explore studies that have specifically focused on the lexical semantic abilities of children with ASD and try to find an explanation for these contradictions. In the 32 studies reviewed, no single factor was…

This chapter provides preliminary evidence to show that financial accounting students would use generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools to improve their learning if given the opportunity to do so by their instructors. Most students who completed the exercises we used in the study did so diligently and modified their answers after using a…

We investigate Korean-speaking children's knowledge about clause-level constructions involving a transitive event -- active transitive and suffixal passive -- through corpus analysis and Bayesian modelling. The analysis of Korean caregiver input and children's production in CHILDES revealed that the rates of constructional patterns produced by the…

It can be hard for leaders to find inspiration and joy when times are as stressful as they have been in the last two years. Coaching can help principals step back and rediscover their motivation or find new sources of inspiration. Coaching is a powerful approach to assist principals in being leaders of high-performing schools where students and…

Children often say that strange and improbable events, like eating pickle-flavored ice cream, are impossible. Two experiments explored whether these beliefs are explained by limits in children's causal knowledge. Participants were 423 predominantly White Canadian 4- to 7-year-olds (44% female) tested in 2020-2021. Providing children with causal…

This study assessed the effect of the course cycle on theoretical knowledge of dental morphology and the dental carving ability of dental students. Thirty-two dental students from the third semester (initial cycle) and 30 students from the eighth and tenth semesters of the dental course (end cycle) had their theoretical knowledge on dental…

In order to investigate pre-service teachers (PSTs') understandings of the terms mathematics and numeracy, the authors conducted a study at one Australian university. The PSTs were enrolled in a mandatory unit about numeracy across the curriculum, in which both teachers' and students' numeracy capabilities were considered. The study took place…

This study aims at characterizing elementary pre-service teachers' conscious lack of knowledge about familiar technical artefacts and its relation to their knowledge about these artefacts. The participants were asked to state what they knew and also what they did not know about a sample of familiar technical artefacts such as a fan or a lock. The…

The purpose of the study is to reveal the relationship between teachers' lifelong learning tendencies and digital literacy levels. Both single and correlational survey designs from the quantitative research models were employed. To determine the study group, convenience case sampling was used by considering the Covid-19 pandemic and a total of 322…

This paper attempts to deepen our understanding of teachers' selection and modification of mathematical tasks for their classroom instruction. In this paper, we focus on teachers' orientations and resources that subtly influence teachers' choices during their routine undertaking of task selection and modification. Interviews using stimulus…

Traditional approaches to financial education -- with curricula and strategies designed by a developer oftentimes disengaged from the lived-worlds of all the students - increasingly populate the literature. For example, characteristics of participant, venue, timing, and content are chronicled that when analysed, result in on-going disappointing…

This study aimed to identify pre-service science teachers' awareness of employing artificial intelligence in science education. It sought also to determine the reasons that led to this level of pre-service science teachers' awareness of employing AI in science education. The mixed-method was used with an interpretive sequential design. The…
