The "Building Your Research Data Management Toolkit" was developed to provide introductory research data management skills training to liaisons in academic libraries. This paper assesses the participants' perceived change in knowledge, behaviors and attitudes as a result of participation in the RoadShow program. Long term changes in…

The application of big data in education sparks debates on its effects. Researchers explore its impact on learning outcomes, with divergent views on neural networks' potential and negative consequences. This study assesses big data's influence on basic literacy skills in music education for 5th graders. Using clustering and k-density analyses,…

The community-based learning model via game simulation to promote community public health diagnosis skills, or CBL model via game simulation, is a research tool that was devised based on the concepts of public health diagnosis using the seven community tools (geo-social mapping, genogram, community organization chart, local health system,…

This study focuses on describing data based school management processes in Türkiye, Spain and Romania. The study group consists of 49 participants. Maximal variation and stratified sampling were applied. For internal trustworthiness, respondent validation, data triangulation and cross check were utilized. For transferability, 'expert opinions' and…

While citizen science and other participatory approaches to science are increasingly used in schools to promote student science learning, rarely are these students supported to collect, analyze, and share their data with meaningful outside audiences. In this study, we used a Design-Based Research approach to iteratively develop and examine an…

Seventy-five out of 82 Indian universities offering data journalism were studied using Lewis's typology, with slight modifications for the Indian setting. Most syllabi remain theory-heavy, with little practical instruction and no engagement with deeper issues like epistemological shifts. Around 60% of the programs were introduced post-COVID,…

The need for data-driven decision-making primarily motivates interest in analysing Big Data in higher education. Although there has been considerable research on the value of Big Data in higher education, its application to address critical issues within the sector is still limited. This systematic review, conducted in December 2021 and…

Purpose: In light of a need for more critical education about datafication, this paper aims to develop a framework for critical datafication literacy that is grounded in theoretical and empirical research. The framework draws upon existing critical data literacies, an in-depth analysis of three well-established educational approaches - media…

This study explores the extent to which college context (two- vs. four-year), gender, and race/ethnicity correlated with worsening course outcomes during emergency remote teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic, by comparing outcomes within students between the fall 2019 pre-pandemic and spring 2020 pandemic terms. In particular, it explores the…

The paper delves into social media mining in the context of medical education programs in the information age. It explores the adaptability of Social Media Analytics (SMA) apps within the structure of online courses in medicine and proposes a conceptual framework for a learning process. This process includes practical exercises based on search and…

In response to the heavy demand for business analysts in various industries, many universities have developed business analyticsrelated courses and programs, which aim to develop a competent labor force that can help companies make sense of business data and generate sustainable competitive advantages. Ensuring high levels of student success in…

We consider Bayesian estimation of a hierarchical linear model (HLM) from small sample sizes. The continuous response Y and covariates C are partially observed and assumed missing at random. With C having linear effects, the HLM may be efficiently estimated by available methods. When C includes cluster-level covariates having interactive or other…

Retention, persistence, and academic achievement for first-generation students have become increasingly prevalent with increasing access to higher education. Beyond access, the most discernible challenge relates to their identity as a first-generation college student and the lack of mentorship from their parents in navigating the college…

This study examines the current research on educational data mining, educational learning support services, personalized learning services, and personalized learning paths in education. The authors aim to integrate personalized learning concepts into traditional support services by drawing on the latest theoretical and practical research. Using…

Within the eukaryotic cell, the actin cytoskeleton is a crucial structural framework that maintains cellular form, regulates cell movement and division, and facilitates the internal transportation of proteins and organelles. External cues induce alterations in the actin cytoskeleton primarily through the activation of Rho GTPases, which then bind…
