This study aims to present the psychometric properties of the Polish language version of the Mathematical Resilience Scale (MRS; Kooken et al., 2016), established in a sample of 443 adults. We confirmed the first-order three-factor structure (Value, Struggle, Growth) with the second-order factor (Total Mathematical Resilience) of the MRS and its…

Background and context: Pair programming and oral exams were deployed in tandem in a remote undergraduate computer programming course to promote social interaction and enhance learning. Objectives: We investigate their impact on social interactions, sense of connection, academic performance, and academic integrity within a virtual learning…

A country's research output depends primarily on the number of research graduates churned out from its higher education institutions. These institutions work with some exogenous phenomena to produce research graduates. This study investigated the relationship between exogenous inputs and graduation rate in graduate research degree programs in two…

This study investigates vocational students' blended learning from the perspective of the extended Community of Inquiry framework (incorporating learning presence as the fourth presence), and examine the mediating role of academic self-efficacy and self-regulated learning (two constructs that we label "learning presence?) in the effect of…

The notion of quantitative physics education research (PER) so far has been mostly limited to the mere use of statistical methods or use of computational tools for analyzing numerical data. Little attention, in fact, has been given to the underpinnings of this research paradigm. To fill the gap, this theoretical paper addresses key and yet often…

This paper explores one key aspect of marketisation in English universities, the quality-related research funding (QR) system, which central government in the United Kingdom uses to allocate funds to Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), based on a system of reviewing and rating the 'quality' of research at different HEIs. Specifically, it focuses…

China has a rich history of dance education and has established prominent tertiary dance institutions. Coupled with this is a growing global interest to engage with China, and connections are developing between Chinese and non-Chinese tertiary dance institutions. Within this curiosity and internationalization of dance education, there is the…
