Results of a survey showed that more parents (54%) than teachers (46%) are in favor of parental attendance of children's online classes especially if the children are in the lower grades, but…

Several mental health programs have been developed in clinics and transported into schools, which has great potential for increasing access to intervention for students who may not be otherwise served. However, such programs may lack consideration of the complexity and constraints of schools, including the diversity of student needs and…

Social emotional learning (SEL) emphasizes various abilities and skills (i.e., self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making) purportedly intended to facilitate students' social relationships and manage their emotions, helping them to be successful in school, future careers, and life…

Many subareas share a common interest in students' "motivational resilience," defined broadly as patterns of action that allow students to constructively deal with, overcome, recover, and learn from encounters with academic obstacles and failures.

To the best of our knowledge, much research has been conducted concerning the topic of mobile learning (m-learning) adoption or acceptance. However, examining the continued use of m-learning is still in short supply and calling for further research. To bridge this limitation, this study develops an integrated model through the integration of three…

In this study, the direct and indirect relationships of children's self-regulation skills and their higher-order cognitive skills of cognitive flexibility and abstraction skills with their early academic competencies are examined. Within the scope of the study, the mediating role of self-regulation skills with early academic competencies is…
