Entropy and the second law of thermodynamics have long been identified as difficult concepts to teach in the physical chemistry curriculum. Their highly abstract nature, mathematical complexity and emergent nature underscore the necessity to better link classical thermodynamics and statistical thermodynamics. The objectives of this systematic…

Despite the increasing interest in data analytics applications within postgraduate education research, there remains a significant gap in research dedicated to exploring mixed methods research for such investigations. This study undertook to bridge this gap by exploring the application and use of mixed methods research to examine data analytics…

A growth mindset is the belief that one's intellect and abilities may develop through effort. This mindset suggests that intelligence is not fixed but adaptable. With the continuous growth in literature on the growth mindset in mathematics, there is a need to investigate the current trends from a bibliometric perspective. To meet this need, the…

Background: People with neurodevelopmental disabilities are frequently prescribed or administered psychotropic medication, particularly to manage behaviours of concern. Reducing inappropriate psychotropic use has been the target of international research and policy for several decades. Methods: Six electronic databases were searched for…

This study aims to present a bibliometric analysis of international research on the response to intervention (RTI) approach. An analysis was conducted using the Web of Science database focusing on the period between 1997 and 2023. At the end of this analysis, 477 records that met the search criteria were identified. Initially, a performance…

This review was conducted in order to determine the specific role of intelligent technologies in the individual learning experience. The research work included consider articles published between 2014 and 2024, found in Web of Science, Scopus, and ERIC databases, and selected among 933 ?articles on the topic. Materials were checked for compliance…

Developmental psychology focuses on how psychological constructs change with age. In cognitive development research, however, the specifics of this emergence is often underspecified. Researchers often provisionally assume linear growth by including chronological age as a predictor in regression models. In this work, we aim to evaluate this…

This review aims to provide a current, systematic overview of research over the past decade in the context of school-related trauma-studies to understand research-related approaches of school-based trauma pedagogy. To address this question, a systematic review was conducted. A total of 443 articles was selected from four databases driven by…

The world was introduced to the first academic establishment granting degrees when Fatima al-Fihriya, a female Muslim scholar, established Jamia al-Qarawiyyin, in the ancient city of Fes in 859 CE. After spreading throughout the Arab Muslim world, it took hundreds of years for this new establishment to make its way into Europe with the university…

Purpose: This study aims to identify the growth pattern of research literature, most influential authors, most impactful documents and most relevant topics on sustainable development (SD) in higher education management (HEM) from 2000 to 2023. Design/methodology/approach: The research approach used descriptive quantitative and bibliometric…

This bibliometric analysis examines the evolving landscape of blended learning research (2018-2023) through a mixed method. Leveraging a dataset of 1673 documents from 'Web of Science' and employing WPS and VOSviewer, the study addresses a few key research questions. It explores annual publication and citation trends, author and country…

Objective: Examine the impact of the campus food environment on postsecondary students' dietary behaviors (e.g., dietary intake) and food purchasing. Participants: Students currently attending a postsecondary institution, all ages and geographic locations included. Methods: A systematic search from January 2000-October 2022 was conducted in six…

Purpose: Vocabulary, grammar, and discourse skills represent distinct dimensions of language ability in young children. Research suggests that individuals with hearing loss often have difficulties with language skills as compared to their hearing counterparts. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to analyze the effectiveness of…

The current study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of self-management interventions for teaching daily living skills to autistic individuals. This study accessed the corresponding studies by doing a search in six databases. 14 articles and one dissertation met the inclusion criteria. The included studies were first analyzed…

A child's ability to comprehend speech in the mainstream classroom is vital for intellectual and social development. However, listening conditions are often sub-optimal; the presence of multiple talkers, high noise levels, and long reverberation times add to the challenge of listening with a developing auditory system. An assessment that captures…
