Self-regulated learning (SRL) theory comprises cognitive, metacognitive, and affective aspects that enable learners to autonomously manage their learning processes. This article presents a systematic literature review on the measurement of SRL in digital platforms, that compiles the 53 most relevant empirical studies published between 2015 and…

Given the increased focus of educational research on what works for whom and under what circumstances over the last decade, educational researchers are increasingly turning toward mixture models to identify heterogeneous subgroups among students. Such data are inherently nested, as students are nested within classrooms and schools. Yet there has…

This systematic literature review critically evaluates 14 empirical studies published over a 14 years span (2006-2019) to answer questions about the models and the effects of transformational school leadership on student academic achievement. The analysis of the related literature utilized vote counting and narrative synthesis to delineate the…

However, although existing models for evaluating the effectiveness of universities provide a large number of modeling solutions, it is difficult to objectively evaluate dynamic coefficients based on the differences in precision ideological and political work systems of different types of universities in the evaluation process of innovative paths…

Multiple imputation (MI) is a popular method for handling missing data. In education research, it can be challenging to use MI because the data often have a clustered structure that need to be accommodated during MI. Although much research has considered applications of MI in hierarchical data, little is known about its use in cross-classified…

Predictive models on students' academic performance can be built by using historical data for modelling students' learning behaviour. Such models can be employed in educational settings to determine how new students will perform and in predicting whether these students should be classed as at-risk of failing a course. Stakeholders can use…

Preschool, understood as being both a physical and psychological environment, is, according to objectives in national curriculum, required to be inclusive for all those who attend it. Previous studies have identified the stereotypical norms of several everyday activities of preschools, including both interactions and premises. The aim of this…

This study examines the current research on educational data mining, educational learning support services, personalized learning services, and personalized learning paths in education. The authors aim to integrate personalized learning concepts into traditional support services by drawing on the latest theoretical and practical research. Using…

This investigation examines the efficacy of multilevel analysis of individual heterogeneity and discriminatory accuracy (MAIHDA) over fixed-effects models when performing intersectional studies. The research questions are as follows: (1) What are typical strata representation rates and outcomes on physics research-based assessments? (2) To what…

A vast amount of published scholarly literature is generated every day. Today, it is one of the biggest challenges for organisations to extract knowledge embedded in published scholarly literature for business and research applications. Application of text mining is gaining popularity among researchers and applications are growing exponentially in…

Big data is a unique field of study which requires specialized analytics. The field of education has a lot of data: individual student test scores, attendance, behavior, and demographic data are just some of the regularly collected information year after year. Individual student data across an entire state over several years quickly becomes big…

Conceptual stances provide guidance to the mixed methods researcher as he or she makes decisions throughout the research process, including determining the dimensions of integration or levels at which mixing occurs. Only the dialectic conceptual stance specifically encourages mixing at the abstract paradigmatic level. This article outlines four…

This report aims to showcase the value of implementing a Bayesian framework to analyse and report results from international large-scale surveys and provide guidance to users who want to analyse the data using this approach. The motivation for this report stems from the recognition that Bayesian statistical inference is fast becoming a popular…

This study examines modelling with machine learning. In the context of a yearlong data science course, the study explores how upper secondary students apply machine learning with Jupyter Notebooks and document the modelling process as a computational essay incorporating the different steps of the CRISP-DM cycle. The students' work is based on a…

Many of the analytical models commonly used in educational research often aim to maximize explained variance and identify variable importance within models. These models are useful for understanding general ideas and trends, but give limited insight into the individuals within said models. Data envelopment analysis (DEA), is a method rooted in…
