In this Report on Practice, we explore both the process and an approach of engaging Undergraduate Students in research using a Research Institute setting. Drawing from our experience we conceive of the learning process as a series of interactions and transactions that face the same impediments as any transaction or interaction The approach, we…

The current study aimed to evaluate an online learning experience based on the music model of motivation in an educational technology post-graduate program in Oman. In order to understand the motivational perceptions of students regarding the instruction, a two-phase, sequential explanatory mixed method research design was conducted in this study.…

In response to the COVID-19 crisis, embedded tutoring became a popular model to address the need for additional student support in higher education. Four U.S. community colleges collaborated to develop a successful embedded tutoring model that provides a framework and definition for embedded tutoring and training for tutors and participating…

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to explore how and to what extent the Blended Learning Classroom (BLC) model enhances students' learning experience. The creation of the BLC model was to provide different learning approaches to overcome the challenges in the new normal regarding how we could manage the Thailand Lesson Study Incorporated…

This chapter describes a locally developed model for professional learning, whose purpose is to facilitate faculty participants' implementation of UDL. The model is grounded in attributes of long-term, job-embedded professional learning and principles of adult learning theory. Recommendations for scaling-up faculty professional learning programs…

The study proposes a frontline deliberate learning (FDL) process involving knowledge generation, knowledge articulation, and knowledge codification, which enable organizations to capture knowledge embedded in the frontlines. It examines the antecedent effects of three orientations (i.e., performance, learning, and customer orientation) at both the…

Most second language writing studies have approached the L2 Writing phenomenon through the cognitive theoretical lens that situates writing as a mental activity that resembles psychological and mathematical problem-solving (Cumming, 2016, p. 69). "While research on second language writing has expanded exponentially in recent years, it has for…

Emotions can influence online teaching and learning, according to existing studies. PERMA theory enjoys great fame in both positive psychology field and English foreign language context since it was proposed by Seligman, which includes five domains, namely positive emotions, engagement, relationship, meaning, and achievement. Although there is a…

This study examines the mathematization approaches and science, engineering, and mathematics (SEM) practices utilized by 18 elementary bilingual pre-service teachers (PSTs) when solving a model-eliciting activity. The activity prompted participants to design ramps with certain constraints. A case study methodology was used to analyze the…

The use of writing instruction strategies has become increasingly common in English language learning, particularly among students with learning disabilities (LD). However, there remains a lack of comprehensive categorization of effective writing instruction models for both first language (L1) and second language (L2) students with LD. This study…

This study aims to determine the effect of the jigsaw type collaborative learning model vs discovery learning model and learning discipline on learning outcomes, Message Design courses for students. This study used a quasi-experimental research design with a 2 x 2 factorial design. The data in testing this hypothesis used Descriptive Statistical…

As educators, our goal is to help our students be successful, but in order to accomplish this, we need to understand what factors contribute to student success. One factor, small-group active learning, has been correlated to improved academic outcomes; however, the magnitude of this improvement can vary across different courses, different types of…

The benefits of incorporating process information in a large-scale assessment with the complex micro-level evidence from the examinees (i.e., process log data) are well documented in the research across large-scale assessments and learning analytics. This study introduces a deep-learning-based approach to predictive modeling of the examinee's…

In the first edition of this book, Dr. Ashcraft transformed the complex, often abstract process of lesson planning into an accessible and concrete practice for English language teachers in any context. The second edition of "Lesson Planning" includes updated research and references, expanded sections on technology, and new reflection…

This paper presents an in-depth analysis of student behavior and score prediction in the ASSISTments online learning platform. We address four research questions related to the impact of tutoring materials, skill mastery, feature extraction, and graph representation learning. To investigate the impact of tutoring materials, we analyze the…
