Background: Understanding the different factors that determine vocabulary development in young children is essential for the diagnosis and rehabilitation of language disorders in children. Language development is closely related to other cognitive processes such as auditory verbal learning and memory. This research focuses on the development of a…

A group of eighth-graders was presented with a two-day lab exploring graph theory as an enrichment experience. With the school's winter break looming, students were weary of solving linear equations, and this topic was intended to inject some new life into the classroom. In addition to learning about a completely new topic, they would be exposed…

While project-based learning purportedly values student agency, supporting and managing this remains challenging. We conducted a design-based research study to understand how problem authenticity, and task and participant structures can contribute to students' framing agency, in which students make decisions that are consequential to their…

Using Consensual Qualitative Research, researchers examined teachers' experiences in the student referral process, specifically how they determined when and to whom a referral should be made. Results indicate that teachers actively work to engage students and families in strong relationships to avoid referrals and that certain behaviors are more…

In this study, technology-enhanced statistical problem-solving tasks designed by pre-service teachers (PTs) were examined. The PTs designed 28 tasks. The designed tasks were analyzed within the context of the Considerations for Design and Implementation of Statistics Tasks (C-DIST) components. It was revealed that the tasks were mostly designed…

This study explored the utilisation of GeoGebra as a modelling tool to develop undergraduate engineering mathematics students' conceptual and procedural knowledge of complex numbers. This mission was accomplished by implementing GeoGebra-enriched activities, which provided carefully designed representational support to mediate between students'…

One of the main objectives of St. Dominic College of Asia (SDCA) is to equip students to become professionals who are competent, productive, and socially responsible. It is to ensure the graduates and incoming students of this institution can adjust to changes in the sector. This study aimed to focus on the employability of graduates from St.…

This book assists teachers in providing curriculum to identify gifted students of diversity in the early years, without the formal use of traditional measures of ability. Appropriate for small and large group settings, the pedagogical tools and lessons in this book provide young students with teaching and learning experiences designed to uncover…

Learning strategies are important catalysts of students' learning. Research has shown that students with effective learning strategies are more likely to have better academic achievement. This study aimed to investigate students' adoption of learning strategies in different course implementations, the transfer of learning strategies between…

The aim of this study is to compare the self-efficacy beliefs in problem posing of middle school mathematics teachers in Science and Art Centres and state schools. A descriptive research model was employed. The study was conducted with 187 teachers and "Teachers' Problem Posing Self-Efficacy Beliefs Inventory" (TPPBEI) was used. In the…

The spread of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been recently generating worries among teachers and educators about the validity of assessment when students make use of AI tools to solve tasks. To tackle this issue, we propose mathematical problem solving activities to be carried out with the aid of ChatGPT, showing how problem solving and critical…

Outside of education, many academic disciplines developed and promulgated checklists to evaluate the quality of qualitative studies. This article used an embedded mixed methods approach in three stages: development of a conceptual framework reviewing 62 guidelines; a content analysis of key areas of the guidelines; and review of dissertations to…

Developmental support agencies support many adults with intellectual disabilities in the community. Unfortunately, these adults often exhibit high rates of challenging behaviour, which present significant pressures on these service providers. Agencies need to develop effective means of increasing their capacity to provide quality support. Previous…

Universal screening for social, emotional, and behavioral risk is an important method for identifying students in need of additional or targeted support (Eklund and Dowdy in School Mental Health 6:40-49, 2014). Research is needed to explore how potential bias may be implicated in universal screening. We investigated student demographics as…

Maternal depression is a well-established risk factor for the development of depression in offspring. As such, reducing maternal depression may be key to effective prevention efforts to reduce offspring's depression. Based on the broad risk represented by maternal depression, examining cross-over effects of parent-focused interventions on maternal…
