Via AI video generators, it is possible to create educational videos with humanistic instructors by simply providing a script. The characteristics of video types and features of instructors in videos impact video engagement and, consequently, performance. This study aimed to compare the impact of human instructors and AI-generated instructors in…

This study aimed to relate school diversity approaches to continuity and change in teacher-student relationships, comparing Belgian-majority (N = 1,875, M[subscript age] = 14.56) and Turkish and Moroccan-minority adolescents (N = 1,445, M[subscript age] = 15.07). Latent-Growth-Mixture-Models of student-reported teacher support and rejection over…

The current mixed-methods study aimed at incorporating a virtual reality (VR) tool (i.e. Google Expeditions) into the writing process of Iranian English as a foreign language (EFL) learners, examining its impact on their writing motivation and performance. To that end, 42 EFL learners were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups,…

Group composition presents a compelling, significant, and timely topic for educators, given the widespread use of group assignments in today's pedagogical models. This paper adopts a Fuzzy Set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) as a systematic approach to investigate the conditions for high learning performance in marketing simulations. We…

Artificial intelligence aims to restructure and process re-engineering education and teaching processes and accelerate the evolution of the whole education system from information to intelligence. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) robots learn by observing people at work, analyzing user processes repeatedly, and adjusting or correcting automated…

While interviewing seniors at our university, we came across a curious and disturbing trend. Students of color were less active in any local church. This finding pushed us to ask: does this gap exist throughout Christian college campuses? We answered this question using survey data from over 800 seniors at Baylor University and a national sample…

Participants: College students with and without a CMC (n = 137 per group; aged 18-23 years) at a Midwestern university. Methods: Participants reported on anxious and depressive symptoms,…

Our work contributes to existing research on student loyalty by testing a model that includes organisational justice as a predictor. In Study 1 (n = 257, Polish sample), students' perceived organisational justice of their university was a positive predictor of their loyalty. In Study 2 (n = 522, Polish sample), we replicated these findings and…

Social media (SoMe) is an important part of how young people socialize and communicate with each other and there are concerns that this may negatively impact peer relationships. The aim of this article was to explore how high school students experience the impact of SoMe on their peer relationships and the quality of these relationships. We…

Upper secondary school students with a strong academic self-concept are more likely to complete their studies and thus increase their well-being in the future. Previous research on the big-fish-little-pond-effect (BFLPE) has thoroughly established the negative contrast effect of average group academic achievement on students' academic…

This longitudinal mixed-methods case study aimed to explain why a seemingly ordinary U.S.-affiliated hyper-connected French language learner (Nancy) achieved extraordinary outcomes after 15 weeks in Paris, compared to fifteen Generation Z peers also enrolled in the program. Framed by Complex Dynamic Systems Theory and social pedagogies, the study…
