Spaced repetition is among the most studied learning strategies in the cognitive science literature. It consists in temporally distributing exposure to an information so as to improve long-term memorization. Providing students with an adaptive and personalized distributed practice schedule would benefit more than just a generic scheduler. However,…

Research on non-cognitive factors has shown that persistence in the face of challenges plays an important role in learning. However, recent work on wheel-spinning, a type of unproductive persistence where students spend too much time struggling without achieving mastery of skills, show that not all persistence is uniformly beneficial for learning.…

Integration as a methodology for redesigning higher education is the main theme of this chapter. After defining how the authors understand and envision integration as an organizational model and as a learning model, they maintain that setting the expectation of the importance of becoming a learning organization is essential for successful whole…

This article provides a philosophical conceptualization of how learners engage in entrepreneurial learning from within by focusing on the role of the inner identity and mission of the learner. Klapper and Neergaard add "withness" to the learning frameworks of entrepreneurship education (EE), but there is scant literature discussing the…

In this commentary on this issue's focus article by Baird et al., Pellegrino focuses first on the fundamental nature of educational assessment and its connection to theories, models, and data on learning. He then discusses the contemporary views of learning in the form of learning progressions as they relate to assessment development. In the third…

This report prepared at the request of the Seychelles Ministry of Education presents a new model of schooling in Seychelles and makes a case for strengthening the Seychelles Institute of Distance and Open Learning. The new model proposes to leverage the best features of open schooling, e-learning, hybrid learning, and community tutoring to improve…

That creativity can play a role in learning seems clear. Indeed, creativity researchers and educational scholars have long asserted that theories of learning need to be broadened to include creative cognition. What is less clear, however, is the specific nature of that role. The purpose of this article is to introduce a new model of creative…

Purpose: Most educational assessments tend to be constructed in a close-ended format, which is easier to score consistently and more affordable. However, recent work has leveraged computation text methods from the information sciences to make open-ended measurement more effective and reliable for older students. This study asks whether such text…

Most educational institutions adopted the hybrid teaching mode through learning management systems. The logging data/clickstream could describe learners' online behavior. Many researchers have used them to predict students' performance, which has led to a diverse set of findings, but how to use insights from captured data to enhance learning…

The centrality of service learning in the development of students' professional practice has received worldwide attention. Exposure to appropriately designed service learning experience determines the acquisition of graduate attributes. This article addresses a study in which the key question was: What methods and strategies do students and their…

Writing is a fundamental skill in English language learning that requires the application of effective instructional strategies. Various strategies have been implemented in writing classrooms, including writing strategies, summarization, collaborative writing, specific product goals, word processing, sentence combining, prewriting, inquiry…

The global discourse on STEM education is increasingly emphasizing the need to integrate ethical, social, and cultural dimensions to ensure that learning is both technologically relevant and human-centered. While the Scientist-Teacher-Student Partnership (STSP) has been recognized as a promising model for bridging expertise and pedagogy, limited…

We propose a model of University-linked collaboration for teaching international business as a tool to facilitate equitable learning and cross-border engagement. We extend the collaborative online international learning (COIL) model from student-to-student to student-to-professional by proposing a six-factor model. We set this collaboration across…

This paper discusses the layered nature of lifelong learning participation, bringing together fragmented insights in why adults do or do not participate in lifelong learning activities. The paper will discuss the roles and responsibilities of individual adults, education and training providers and countries' social education policies, often…

Recent evolutions, such as pervasive networking and other enabling technologies, have been increasingly changing human life, knowledge acquisition, and the way works are performed and students learn. In this societal change, educational institutions must maintain their leading role. They have therefore embraced digitally enhanced learning to…
