This preliminary study explores how GPT-4 Vision (GPT-4V) technology can be integrated into teacher analytics through observational assessment, aiming to improve reflective teaching practice. Our study develops a Video-based Automatic Assessment System (VidAAS) powered by GPT-4V. This approach uses Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) to…

Background: Teachers' perspectives provide crucial insights into classroom practice in early childhood education settings. Although many kindergarten programmes emphasise play "and" assessment to support children's learning and development, recent research suggests that there are some disparities between teachers' articulated role of…

While much research has explored the quality of traditional teacher evaluations, little is known about the quality of ratings in preservice teacher evaluations. This paper presents a case study of Many-facet Rasch measurement (MFR, Linacre, 1989) to explore potential rater effects influencing the quality of supervisor ratings in educator…

Instructional videos are commonly used in both remote and in-campus curriculum. In order to investigate students' experience when learning with online instructional videos, we adapted a method called "UX curve" from the user experience studies in industrial design. In this paper, we introduce the procedure and data processing method of…

Many professional development programs aim to improve student outcomes by enhancing teacher competencies. Effective evaluation of these programs requires a clear delineation of the competencies to be gained. A competency model was developed to evaluate the impact of a teacher professional program that aimed to improve teachers' ability to…

Effective presentation skills are an important ability for students and professionals to possess.
