The current study explores the preferences of primary school teachers on the characteristics of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)-based teaching via Discrete Choice Models (DCM). These models analyze the preferences of teachers towards alternatives that are formed by different characteristics. In this study we examined the…

Student absenteeism in the earliest years of elementary school has been linked to a range of negative outcomes. Though the literature has examined numerous factors that are associated with children missing school, the role of teachers--especially at the early elementary level--has not been well understood. Given that students spend the majority of…

Contextual, identity, and cultural factors are not only associated with student outcomes but can also serve to moderate the effects of interventions.

The aim of this study is to reveal and evaluate the attending and interpreting skills of student thinking of prospective teachers, as well as their instructional suggestions as responding skills. The current study was conducted with 29 prospective mathematics teachers (PMTs) within a qualitative design in the context of probability. First, three…

This paper introduces an approach that uses latent class analysis to identify cut scores (LCA-CS) and categorize respondents based on context scales derived from largescale assessments like PIRLS, TIMSS, and NAEP. Context scales use Likert scale items to measure latent constructs of interest and classify respondents into meaningful ordered…

The purpose of this study was to conduct a conceptual replication of Pendergast et al.'s (2018) study that examined the diagnostic accuracy of a nomogram procedure, also known as a naive Bayesian approach. The specific naive Bayesian approach combined academic and social-emotional and behavioral (SEB) screening data to predict student performance…
