Background: Cambodia's higher education institutions (HEIs) face several challenges. Academics require increased access to resources and funding, as well as restrictions on academic freedom and significant language and cultural barriers. The purpose of this paper is to identify and analyze the individual factors influencing academicians' research…

Existing research on students participating in human subjects research (HSR) has focused on the implications of these samples for the generalizability and validity of the data and conclusions. In this article, we focus on the ethical dimensions of students as research subjects by analyzing IRB websites framing this issue at 100 universities in the…

The growing interest in professional development for teachers via massive open online courses (MOOCs) raises the need for identifying the existing gaps in the literature on the topic. In this literature review, we were able to identify 68 relevant studies. They mostly used mixed methods (57%) and surveys (82%), and only reported descriptive…

The education system has relied on conventional single-score assessments, which provide limited insights into students' cognitive abilities. Cognitive diagnostic assessment (CDA) offers a promising alternative by providing detailed information on students' cognitive processes. The review aims to explore the recent trends of cognitive diagnostic…

This Case Study explores the application of importance-performance analysis (IPA) integrated with strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis to develop strategic plans in universities. The IPA-SWOT methodology measures student satisfaction to prioritize areas for improvement, combining logistic regression analysis to assess…

Indigenous research methodologies have been theorized by prominent Indigenous scholars over the past few decades and advocated for in research focused on Indigenous communities for their emancipatory power to reestablish Indigenous peoples' expertise and self-determining and sovereignty rights over education and research. Western intrusion in…

This systematic literature review aimed to ascertain what participatory methods for young children have been used in peer-reviewed empirical articles. A systematic literature search yielded 75 articles. Based on their methodology, the studies were divided into six categories: (1) multi-method and the Mosaic approach, (2) observation and…

Doctoral education is the primary time in which scholars learn about research methodologies and begin to develop their own research agendas and skills. Yet, to date, few research studies have examined graduate students' perceived value of, and access to, training in multiple research methodologies. The purpose of this study was to explore special…

This paper explores the concept of adaptive research design, in which topic, theoretical framing, method, and data are "in principle" open to adaptation during the research process. The main premise is that adaptations in one element of the research process can trigger changes in other elements. Both positive and negative reasons for…

A growing number of people live in apartments worldwide, and research into these contexts is key to the success of our cities. Recruiting apartment residents as research participants can be challenging, however, especially when using a case study approach. This research note outlines the participant recruitment method developed for case study…
