To effectively avoid subjective bias in manual evaluation. This article proposes a MIDI piano teaching performance evaluation method based on bidirectional LSTM. This method utilizes a three-layer bidirectional LSTM neural network mechanism to make it easier for the model to capture useful information. In addition, the Spark clustering training…

Traditional authentic assessment tasks are frequently tied to future work and enmeshed in neoliberal and capitalist visions of education. We advocate an alternative approach where authenticity signifies meaningful learning outside the confines of the classroom to promote deep learning that 'sticks'. We proffer an understanding of "assessment…

Undergirded by "economic theory of the principal-agent problem", the study investigated secondary school teachers' perception of the influence of large-scale testing accountability on teaching and learning. Cross-sectional survey design was used. Simple random sampling was also employed to select 200 teachers for this study. The…

This study examines the beliefs and practices regarding performance assessment among Korean English teachers in secondary schools. A survey was conducted with 109 teachers using a 52-item online questionnaire to investigate the extent to which teachers' beliefs align with their instructional practices and to categorize them based on these…

This research aims to thoroughly explore how authentic assessment methods, designed to emulate real-life challenges, contribute to enhancing the abilities of students to construct logical arguments, critically evaluate evidence, and articulate thoughts coherently in writing. In order to achieve the stated objective, a qualitative research design…

Studies reporting flexible assessment strategies and their impact across different modes of study remain limited with little emphasis placed on the role these arrangements play in devising authentic assessment processes. This paper synthesises recent research work depicting flexible design principles and practice strategies for how educators might…

This paper explores the policy, pedagogy, and practice affordances and constraints of teacher education as an environment to develop pre-service teachers' antiracism commitments. Through critical analysis of interviews with pre-service teachers and teacher educators at three social justice-oriented teacher preparation programs, research findings…

Theoretical studies and perspectives have argued that humanities positively influence art and design learning performance, yet little study has tested this argument empirically. Further than testing the impact of humanities on art and design learning performance, the present study explores how humanities influence art and design learning…

Although there is no globally accepted definition to guide micro-credential activity in higher education, many seek to boost the employability prospects of earners. To do this well, micro-credentials need to indicate skills and competencies. Assessment ensures those skills and competencies are verified, enabling trust and communication in the…

We used a multiple baseline across strategies design to determine the effect of technology-enhanced performance-based feedback on parent's use of preventive strategies to address children's challenging behaviors for two parent--child dyads. A father, mother, and each of their young children participated. We also measured associated child outcomes…

Using a holistic, interpretive qualitative ethnographic approach, this study explored the pedagogical practices of traditional educational systems in Ethiopia and their implications for contemporary education practices. Qualitative data (ethnographic observations, informal interactions and semi structured interviews) were gathered over a 3-month…

This study examines the determinants of learning strategies employed by undergraduate accounting students in an emerging economy. Specifically, it investigates the impact of institution, teacher, and personal determinants on accounting students' utilisation of a particular learning strategy. In line with Information Process Theory (IPM), a…

This convergent mixed methods study investigated the relationship between the assessment-capable learning (ACL) instructional model, John Hattie's influence referred to as "students driving their own learning," and math achievement in kindergarten. While Visible Learning literature has focused on secondary and higher education, this…

This research aimed to develop and evaluate an online problem-based learning (PBL) model to enhance undergraduates' self-regulated learning (SRL). The Research and Development method was used in two phases: the first was to develop and validate the model. It began with a literature review to identify core features of effective PBL and SRL within…

This study explores different conceptualizations of creativity within an educational setting, using textual coding and network mapping on data from a creativity-focused course. Two primary conceptualizations emerged: the Freedom-Possession and Playful-Adaptation conceptualizations. Each was associated with unique practices and elements of the…
