Categorised as planning documents, individual educational plans (IEPs) purport to provide school-based instruction more closely matched to individual pupils' skills and needs. The present study investigated the extent to which IEPs contain practically relevant suggestions for teachers to implement in practice. Based on a sample of 112 IEPs from…

Gifted students can exhibit extreme variance in both their abilities and their interests, yet they are often treated within schools as one homogeneous, specialized population. "Personalized Learning in Gifted Education" helps educators strengthen their differentiation of both instruction and services for advanced students. This book: (1)…

This paper proposes the design of an ontology of multiple programming languages and give three examples to show the methodology. Our ontology aims to summarize the core of computational thinking logic by elaborating the concepts of three object-oriented programming languages in the industry: Python, Java, and C#. Therefore, the construction of the…

This study investigates the beliefs and practices of preservice teachers (PSTs) concerning equitable mathematics instruction for diverse learners. Through a comprehensive analysis of lesson plans and reflective essays, we identify key themes that emerge in PSTs' approaches to teaching mathematics. The findings indicate that PSTs employ various…

By creating specific prompts, educators can harness the power of AI models to generate tailored content, provide instant feedback, and simulate real-world scenarios for deeper learning engagement. Whether it's creating personalized lesson plans, generating creative writing prompts, or assisting with problem-solving exercises, generative AI creates…
