The credibility of higher education institutions hinges upon certain dynamic factors among which leadership has widely been considered and validated as the most critical in all respects. Similarly, leadership styles have been measured as the potential and significant predictor for various organizational outcomes. Among all, transformational and…

This study evaluates techniques to identify high-quality teachers. Since tenure restricts dismissals of experienced teachers, schools must predict productivity and dismiss those expected to perform ineffectively prior to tenure receipt. Many states rely on evaluation scores to guide these personnel decisions without considering other dimensions of…

Background: The use of social media among students has become debatable concern due to both positive and negative effects on academic performance. Yet, understanding of the diverse patterns of social media use and their influence on actual and perceived academic performance remains limited. Objectives: This study distinguishes between academic and…

Metacognitive reasoning is central to decision-making. For every decision, we can also judge our trust in that decision, or our level of "confidence." The mechanisms and representations underlying reasoning about confidence remain debated. We test whether children rely on "processing fluency" to infer their own confidence: do…

This longitudinal study investigates metacognitive development in children aged four to six (N = 148; 74 girls; 106 White, 21 multiracial, 17 Black, 3 Asian, 1 Latino; collected in 2017-2019) compared to adults (N = 26, 13 women; collected in 2022). We assessed metacognitive monitoring and control using experimenter-elicited and self-generated…

This study investigated the relationship among e-learning readiness, learning engagement, and learning performance of preservice teachers in HyFlex learning environments. To identify the causal relationship, data collected from 776 preservice teachers at four universities in the Philippines were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM).…

Purpose: Grounding on the goal-setting theory and flow theory, this study explored the mechanism underlying the association between transfer design (TD); identical elements and training transfer (TT). Specifically, the authors explored a moderated mediation process of trainer performance and motivation to improve work through learning (MTIWL) that…

The worst performance rule (WPR) describes the phenomenon that individuals' slowest responses in a task are often more predictive of their intelligence than their fastest or average responses. To explain this phenomenon, it was previously suggested that occasional lapses of attention during task completion might be associated with particularly…

Globalization, rapid technological advancement, and a dynamic market environment make organizations need to find effective ways to escalate their organizational performance. Anchored on the resource-based view (RBV) theory, this study investigates the impact of organizational innovation, knowledge management capabilities, and organizational…

Students benefit from receiving and providing peer feedback, but the degree of participation limits the benefit. Further, students sometimes resist participation, providing few or only short comments. Prior researchers have examined the role of general attitudes toward peer feedback in limiting participation. However, little research has examined…

In this paper, we examine whether early warning signals from accounting courses (such as early engagement and early formative performance) are predictive of first-year progression outcomes, and whether this data is more predictive than personal data (such as gender and prior achievement). Using a machine learning approach, results from a sample of…

Successful entrance into specialty training represents a pivotal stage in the careers of medical officers. Selection for entrance into specialty training programs may encompass criteria including research experience, regional exposure, clinical experience, professional achievements, diversity, equity and inclusion factors, and extracurricular…

Recent trends in "educational technology" have led to emergence of methods such as teaching analytics (TA) in understanding and management of the teaching-learning processes. Didactically, "teaching analytics" is one of the promising and emerging methods within the Education domain that have proved to be useful, towards…

Much has been made of the apparent capacity for creativity of generative AI. However, as research expands the knowledge base regarding the capabilities and performance of this technology, the prevailing view is shifting away from "AI is creative" and towards a more balanced model of Human-AI co-creativity. Nevertheless, even this…

Coaching literature assumes that people undergo personal change through coaching. We contend that different types of change may occur with coaching and investigate whether this is the case in reflection (a key competence in coaching). Results from our sample of 61 coachees indicate that three types of change (alpha, beta, gamma) are observed…
