Individuals are typically identified as gifted largely on the basis of competence in limited contexts, but their performance in the real world, both as children and adults, often lags far behind their competence. Thus, the identification of the individuals as "gifted," however useful in theory, is much less useful in practice. This…

Machine translation post-editing (MTPE) is a process where humans and machines meet. While previous researchers have adopted psychological and cognitive approaches to explore the factors affecting MTPE performance, little research has been carried out to simultaneously investigate the post-editors' cognitive traits and the post-editing task…

The current study, which uses a survey approach, aims to identify middle school students who visit BILSEMs (Science and Art Centers) in terms of their creativity and learning preferences and to look into the impact of various factors on these traits. In the 2021-2022 academic year, 214 fifth, sixth, and seventh graders were chosen using the…

Understanding how learning changes during human development has been one of the long-standing objectives of developmental science. Recently, advances in computational biology have demonstrated that humans display a bias when learning to navigate novel environments through rewards and punishments: they learn more from outcomes that confirm their…

The Operations Management (OM) course is often the first in-depth investigation for students into the OM world. The material can be confusing because it is often delivered as compartmentalized concepts in strategy, demand management, accounting, human resources, economics, etc. Our students do not understand the interdepartmental and interpersonal…

Background: While a number of learner factors have been identified to impact students' collaborative learning, there has been little systematic research into how patterns of students' collaborative learning may differ by their learning orientations. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate: (1) variations in students' learning orientations by…

Intentional learning consists of the ability to learn how to learn, develop critical self-awareness and exercise full accountability for learning. It is highly effective in producing effective learners in a loosely structured learning environment in line with today's student-centric teaching-learning paradigm. Intentional learning equips students…

Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools, such as ChatGPT, have received great attention from researchers, the media, and the public. They are gladly and frequently used for text production by many people. These tools have undeniable strengths but also weaknesses that must be addressed. In this squib we ask to what extent these tools can be…

Institutions have tended to provide online training and in-service training by using today's technologies due to the increasing number of employees and the increase in the number of in-service trainings to be given. While the number of trainings held in online environments is increasing day by day, it has gained importance to help learners learn…

A new generation (Generation Z) of learners has entered universities/colleges. They were raised in an environment full of technology and high access to the online world which well affected their preferences for receiving information. It is indispensable to know their preferred learning style, which could aid in enhanced content delivery. The main…

The authors encourage primary educators to reevaluate learning styles and related literature, explore how the mind works in children's learning, and consider the multimodal learning approach in their classroom practices.

This study adopted a framework based on social cognitive theory to explore the influence of thinking styles on critical thinking and multiple mediation effects of student assessors' assessment performance (scoring and review comments) between them. Samples were 97 graduate students enrolled in the "Seminar" course at a university.…

Attention to programming education from K-12 to higher education has been growing with the aim of fostering students' programming ability. This ability involves employing appropriate algorithms and computer codes to solve problems and can be enhanced through practical learning. However, in a formal educational setting, it is challenging to provide…

Water is a finite resource, necessary for sustaining all facets of life; however, it is often taken for granted. Recognizing a level of risk associated with a diminishing water supply, communicating with the public about their contributions to water issues so they will reduce unnecessary consumption is of utmost importance. This study used an…

Although reasoning is a central concept in mathematics education research, the discipline is still in need of a coherent theoretical framework of mathematical reasoning. With respect to epistemological problems in the dominant discourses on proof, mathematical modelling, and post-truth politics in the discipline, and in accordance with trends in…
