Academic decision-making is composite, involving a number of players with various points of view and frequently conflicting interests. This study explored the relationship between emotional intelligence competence, organizational support, complexity of the academic environment, and role seniority on decision-making efficiency in academia, with a…

Exemplars are key examples chosen to represent designated levels of competence or quality. This study attempts to explore the use of exemplars in a Chinese-English translation teaching context. It involved the teacher-researcher using three exemplars of different quality to help 31 third-year translation majors evaluate their own translation and…

As online learning platforms become more popular and deeply integrated into education, understanding their effectiveness and what drives that effectiveness becomes increasingly important. While there is extensive prior research illustrating the benefits of intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) for student learning, there is comparatively less focus…

The research model, which aims to determine the correlation between the level of teacher candidates taking teacher educators as role models in technology use and the level of technology acceptance and use and to what extent teacher candidates taking teacher educators as role models in technology use predicts technology acceptance and use, is a…

Background: This study breaks new ground by presenting a new, more sophisticated model of learning engagement that goes beyond the current state of the art embodied in the widely used Affective-Behavioral-Cognitive (ABC) model. This work synthesizes and builds upon neglected lines of research in the structure of affective engagement. It also…

This study aims to identify and analyze retracted articles in the field of sustainability. It examines a dataset of 117 retracted publications from the past three decades (1996-2023) based on the Web of Science (WoS) database. The retracted articles were written by 467 authors from 27 countries. The findings indicate that the journals with the…

Moderated multiple regression (MMR) has become a fundamental tool for applied researchers, since many effects are expected to vary based on other variables. However, the inherent complexity of MMR creates formidable challenges for adequately performing power analysis on interaction effects to ensure reliable and replicable research results. Prior…

Although innovation is widely recognised as a cornerstone of contemporary engineering, empirical studies consistently show that undergraduate electrical-engineering students lag behind industry expectations in rapidly translating interdisciplinary concepts into functional prototypes. These findings underscore the need to comprehensively reform…

This study explores implementing place-based education in teaching Arabic literature in Arab schools in Israel. The research proposes a pedagogical approach that connects literary texts to their physical and cultural environments. This approach extends learning beyond traditional classroom boundaries. Through systematic analysis of curricular…

Understanding the relationship between student behaviors and learning outcomes is crucial for designing effective collaborative learning environments. However, collaborative learning analytics poses significant challenges, not only due to the complex interplay between collaborative problem-solving and collaborative dialogue but also due to the…

Early identification of student success is crucial for enabling timely interventions, reducing dropout rates, and promoting on-time graduation. In educational settings, AI-powered systems have become essential for predicting student performance due to their advanced analytical capabilities. However, effectively leveraging diverse student data to…

This paper investigates how the coherent integration of three different tools for reflection during a science methods course can contribute to student teachers' planning and enactment of science teaching, that is, their development of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK). The Refined Consensus Model (RCM) is used as a theoretical lens for…

As the higher education market becomes both more competitive and fragmented (as well as controlled through uncertain and changing regulatory regimes), and as those whom the higher education market serves become more discerning as consumers who apply proven customer behaviors within the market, universities must re-evaluate their internal…

Problem framing is an essential yet under-explored aspect of problem-based historical inquiry. This study investigated how tenth-grade students in one AP US History class framed an ill-structured historical causal reasoning problem. Data included students' written brainstorms, students' responses to open-ended interview questions, and…

Research-based and practical reflection tools can enable systematic analysis of practice and contribute to deeper understandings of classroom processes. An empirically based, evidence-informed reflection tool was developed to support teachers to recognise feedback talk and how it is built into classroom interactions. The tool, titled the feedback…
