Studies have shown that students have different help-seeking behavior patterns and tendencies and furthermore, that students with certain help-seeking behavior patterns and tendencies may have poor performance (i.e., at-risk students). This study applied an educational data mining approach, including clustering and classification, to analyze…

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into mathematical problem-solving has shown significant potential to enhance student learning and performance. However, while AI tools offer numerous benefits, they are prone to occasional conceptual and arithmetic errors that can mislead users and obscure understanding. This research examines such…

A concept-heavy engineering module was offered to introduce the experience of solving full-scale real-world energy-related engineering problems within a classroom environment and prepare students to be professionally ready for the industry. The widely practiced hybrid problem-based learning (h-PBL) pedagogical approach was adopted for the first 2…

The excessive restrictions on the resignation rights of public university teachers, especially high-level talents, have affected the rights and interests of the legal flow of talent. Whether the employment contract can continue to be performed, whether the service period and the liquidated damages clause violate the provisions of the 'Labour…

The advancement of large language model-based generative artificial intelligence (LLM-based GenAI) has sparked significant interest in its potential to address challenges in computational thinking (CT) education. CT, a critical problem-solving approach in the digital age, encompasses elements such as abstraction, iteration, and generalisation.…

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and autism are characterized by the presence of repetitive behaviors. Differentiating between repetitive behaviors attributable to a diagnosis of autism, and those attributable to OCD, poses challenges for differential and co-occurring diagnosis. Differentiation is important to inform appropriate supports and…

Introduction: Classroom incivility is low-level antisocial behavior that disrupts the overall learning environment. It is an important behavior to be studied in adolescence, given its associations with other antisocial behavior (e.g., bullying), negative impact on the learning environment, and predicting later aggressive behavior. The current…

This study uses a quantitative methodology, employing a structured questionnaire, to examine the effectiveness of courses offered by Rustaq College of Education in enhancing students' future skills. The study focuses on pre-service teachers' perceptions within the context of the Omani Future Skills Paradigm Framework. The study results show that…

Background: In STEM education, tasks are essential for organizing and designing teaching-learning processes, as they give concrete form to curricular goals and content standards. Tasks that build on each other and initiate a learning process are particularly effective. Tasks are often specified according to their function (confrontation,…

Effective mathematics teaching practices include not only probing student thinking and selecting student strategies to share but also facilitating discourse and encouraging reflection about important mathematical ideas (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics [NCTM], 2014, pp. 36-37). Encouraging students to use precise academic vocabulary to…

Drawing on survey data from 634 Chinese high school students, this study investigated the mechanisms of career decision-making through the lens of career construction theory. The findings revealed two key insights. First, career adaptability significantly mediated the relationship between students' need satisfaction and career decision-making…

People with high skills have a different behavioural repertoire and generally, such characteristics define their type of gifted. However, we do not have conclusive data regarding the characteristics of this population, since it is an area of study that generates many controversies, and when it comes to socio-emotional characteristics,…

This article presents a group assignment that introduces undergraduate students to the biblical prophets: their original context, their attentiveness to social issues, and the rhetorical methods they utilize. In the assignment, students compose a prophecy set in the modern day that is modeled on the book of Amos. Due to the collaborative nature of…

This case study explores the complexity of leading adaptive change within a large RTLB (Resource Teacher: Learning and Behaviour) cluster in Aotearoa. Centred on the dilemma of how to adapt an internal case management tool (eRTLB) to strengthen best practices, the reflection draws on the principles of adaptive leadership and Robinson's (2022)…

Risky play is climbing, high-speed activities, dangerous exploration, dangerous elements, rough and tumble, and disappearing experiences. There are three primary barriers to risky play: the introduction of electronics, building safer playgrounds in new urban-designed cities, and parent involvement in overscheduling activities have been hindering…
