Students' behavior and academic achievement are improved when technology is integrated into instruction in ways that support learning. Technology integration competency (TIC) has become a critical capacity for second language (L2) pre-service teachers in the digital era. However, the significance of such competency has been neglected in the field…

Every academic year, millions of college students change institutions before degree completion, confronting the challenge of validating credits across colleges. Despite state-level efforts to legislate strategies for smoother transfers, actual credit recognition relies on non-state-regulated bilateral partnerships that are more (i.e., articulation…

Drawing on research in the context of Swedish school-age educare and adopting a post-humanist theoretical--methodological approach, we put forward the notion of mathemat-ing to conceptualise mathematical events that emerge in out-of-school configurations of practice. In them, ethical sensibilities as affects of engagement and rejection may be…

Purposes: The effect of intervening on narrative skills in Chinese-speaking school-age children with developmental language disorder (DLD) is underexplored. Methods: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of narrative intervention on written narratives of Chinese children with and without DLD and to explore the potential…

In recent years, and especially due to COVID-19, a large number of telehealth interventions have been implemented. The large amount of information requires a differential analysis with an emphasis on rurality and the practice of parents/caregivers in the care and attention of children. The objectives of this study were to synthesize the available…

This study aimed to document the experiences of undergraduate student teachers specializing in Mathematics and Science Education during their Teaching Practice in Botswana. The sample consisted of third- and fourth-year students from the Mathematics and Science Education department at the University of Botswana who had participated in Teaching…

The robust body of literature on the benefits of tutoring services clearly indicates a strong correlation between tutoring and student success. The students who most need tutoring, however, are least likely to utilize it. Because of this challenge, a writing center serving a medium-sized Midwestern community college explored how implementing…

Teachers feel inadequate to face pupils' behavioural problems in schools, yet teachers are expected to play significant roles in providing and supporting pupils' appropriate social behaviour. Unfortunately, teacher education in Finland and globally seems to offer little content for behavioural support, and in-service training sessions are filling…

This research investigates the purposes of internationalisation from the perspective of a group of international prospective teachers studying at a Swedish university. The results show that the prospective teachers' understanding of internationalisation corresponds to three ideologies of internationalisation -- idealism, instrumentalism, and…

Objective/Research Question: Many localities have implemented promise programs, which cover tuition for students to attend college based on residency criteria. These "free college" programs have been shown to increase student enrollment, creating the need for additional institutional resources to support student graduation. We analyzed…

Background: A growing number of services are focused on people with intellectual disabilities. Our study investigates interpersonal justice (interpersonal treatment families receive from service professionals) perceived by family members as a heuristic (cognitive shortcut) they can use to evaluate service performance directed towards improving the…

Background: Additive manufacturing or 3-dimensional (3D) printing is an emerging technology with increasing prevalence in non-industrial settings such as university and school settings. However, printers are often located in spaces not designed for this purpose. Methods: 3D-printer use in 11 university and K-12 schools was evaluated by identifying…

Maternal mortality, largely stemming from complications during pregnancy and childbirth, impacts poor expecting women with limited healthcare access in rural Pakistan. Conditional Cash Transfers (CCTs), commonly implemented in developing nations, are designed to improve the well-being of vulnerable populations by focusing on health and education.…
