This work reports the results of a survey study conducted with French-, German-, and Italian-speaking speech and language therapists (SLTs) in Switzerland. In this survey we asked respondents about their language background, training in multilingual matters, and practices with multilingual patients, as well as their opinions on the current SLT…

Artificial intelligence (AI) holds significant potential for enhancing student learning. This reflection critically examines the promises and limitations of AI for cognitive learning processes and outcomes, drawing on empirical evidence and theoretical insights from research on AI-enhanced education and digital learning technologies. We critically…

In this study, we take a critical look at the degree to which the measurement of bullying and sense of belonging at school is invariant across groups of students defined by immigrant status. Our study focuses on the invariance of these constructs as measured on a recent PISA administration and includes a discussion of two statistical methods for…

Background: In South African primary schools, reading is central to curriculum delivery, with a structured three-step process: pre-reading, while-reading and post-reading. Many learners struggle with reading comprehension, which affects their academic performance. Research emphasises the importance of pre-reading for activating prior knowledge,…

The current study was conducted to explore how English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers in Vietnam exhibited their leadership initiative in reforming their pedagogical practice. Data for the study were collected mainly from in-depth interviews with six participating primary school teachers. The findings demonstrated that the participants…

Information and communication technologies have transformed education, driving it towards intelligent teaching and learning. With the rise of generative artificial intelligence (AI), represented by tools such as ChatGPT, there is also a growing body of literature on generative AI in education. In this study, we searched the Scopus, ERIC, and Web…

This study applied expectancy-value theory (EVT) to examine the impact of diagnostic language assessment (DLA) on the learning activities of a group of Chinese learners of English as a foreign language (EFL). A model of test impact on learning was conceptualized by integrating EVT and DLA theories. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was performed…

Purpose: Through the lenses of deprofessionalization, demoralization, and remoralization, this study investigates the experiences of five educators with commitments to social justice education as they navigate teaching in an affluent, rural, and overwhelmingly white community in New Hampshire--a state that at the time of data collection had…

As AI continues to transform educational practices, understanding its potential benefits, limitations, and ethical implications is critical. This study explores future educators' perceptions of generative ?? in higher education. Through a mixed-methods approach, this research gathered insights from undergraduate and master's level students on…

In recent years, employers have expressed concerns that Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) graduates, though proficient in their academic disciplines, lack the critical skills necessary for success in the workplace (Karimi & Pina, 2021). Additionally, many non-STEM majors do not develop the basic STEM competencies that…

ChatGPT's advanced text generation capability has significant potential for the development of innovative and effective pedagogical strategies in mathematics teaching. The integration of ChatGPT into the mathematical story-focused 5E lesson plan preparation process is a concrete reflection of this potential. The success of this integration depends…

This study focuses on how two school districts managed and changed the "instructional core"--student learning goals, instructional resources and strategies, and assessments--in their required high school biology course as they responded to new state science standards based on the "Next Generation Science Standards" (NGSS).…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore Master of Social Services students' (MSS) thoughts of transversal skills in higher education studies and working life practice. Transversal skills are general skills that are transferable from field to field. For instance, transversal skills can promote individuals' employability in the labor market…

As digital teaching aid, virtual simulation experiments integrate modern information technologies such as virtual reality, augmented reality, 3D modeling, digital interaction, network communication, and databases, breaking free from the limitations of time, space, personnel, and resources. By simulating experimental scenes and objects, students…

The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of intervention studies addressing foreign language speaking anxiety through a meta-analytical approach. Research on foreign language speaking anxiety was conducted across various databases using targeted keyword phrases. Statistical data were collected and analyzed using Comprehensive…
