Engineering programs must produce graduates who are able to consider multicriteria decisions including ethical implications during engineering practice. Teaching students in a meaningful manner to consider these multifaceted decisions was investigated through the usage of disasters and primary coverage of infrastructure disasters. Students…

In organizational anarchies (i.e., public institutions) decisions are typically made by oversight or flight. Decision makers and choice opportunities exist simultaneously but on separate tracks resulting in few problems being solved. This paper presents the findings of a study surveying current literature on organizational anarchy as well as…

By considering the interconnectedness of various elements, such as curriculum, instruction, assessment, and school organization, systems thinking provides a framework to understand the underlying patterns, feedback loops, and leverage points that shape educational outcomes. Frick's (1993) systems view of restructuring education supports the notion…

Given school psychology's longstanding workforce shortages, mentorship may be an invaluable mechanism for supporting current and future school psychologists. To advance the literature in this area, we conducted a systematic review of mentoring research in school psychology. Through a comprehensive search of peer-reviewed scholarship, we identified…

The continual evolution of employment opportunities in the present industrial era has raised the need for career-long expert advice. Similar to other fields, thankfully technology has come to our rescue in the area of career guidance also. This paper presents a systematic review of Expert Systems (ES) developed for career guidance, course…

Background/Context: Methodological background: Meta-analysis typically depends on the assumption that true effects follow the normal distribution. While assuming normality of effect "estimates" is often supported by a central limit theorem, normality for the distribution of interventions' "true" effects is a computational…

This study aims to examine adaptability for educational games in terms of adaptation elements, components used in creating user profiles, and decision algorithms used for adaptation. For this purpose, articles and full-text papers in Web of Science, Google Scholar, and Eric databases between 2000-2021 were searched using the keywords…

Data-based decision-making is a well-established field of research in education. In particular, the potential of data use for addressing heterogeneous learning needs is emphasized. With data collected during the learning process of students, teachers gain insight into the performance, strengths, and weaknesses of their students and are potentially…

While several studies have been conducted exploring teachers' pedagogical reasoning practices, few studies have explored the influence of learning audiences' impact on teacher's decisions related to technology integration in early childhood classrooms. The purpose of this study was to provide a systematic review of empirical studies that have…

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the research on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in primary education to explore its potential to enhance teaching and learning processes. Through a systematic review of the relevant literature, this study identifies key areas in which AI can significantly impact primary education and…

As the fields of learning analytics and learning design mature, the convergence and synergies between the two are becoming an important area for research. This paper intends to summarize the main outcomes of a systematic review of empirical evidence on learning analytics for learning design. Moreover, this paper presents an overview of what and…

This article proposes a theoretical framework for conceptualizing socioscientific decision making, reviews current research in this area, and intends to shed some light on the instructional design for the classroom implementation of socioscientific decision making. The framework involves 3 phases: formulate the decision-making space, posit a…

Given the increased attention on pre-college engineering education and its disciplinary nature pertaining to language, discourses, and communicative practices, this "state-of-the-art literature review" focused on findings of research articles informed by qualitative and quantitative data to foreground communicative literacies within…

This article explores the cultural dimensions of the human-computer interaction that underlies gaming strategies. The article is a desktop study of existing literature and is organized into five sections. The first examines the cultural aspects of knowledge processing. The social constructs technology interaction is discussed. Following this, the…

Purpose: The purpose of this review is to critically analyse the extant research and help readers understand the ways the school-based comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) can contribute towards youth development and urge policymakers to implement nationwide good-quality, scientific, culturally relevant, age-appropriate and holistic…
