Rios, Joseph A. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2022
Testing programs are confronted with the decision of whether to report individual scores for examinees that have engaged in rapid guessing (RG). As noted by the "Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing," this decision should be based on a documented criterion that determines score exclusion. To this end, a number of heuristic…

Brack, Virgil, Jr.; Boyles, Justin G.; Cable, Ted T. – American Biology Teacher, 2022
As researchers, teachers, and practitioners we often encounter young professionals and lay adults who do not understand basics of mammalian body temperature regulation. Often their single solid piece of knowledge is that some vertebrates (mammals and birds) are warm-blooded and some (fish, amphibians, and reptile) are cold-blooded, which is…

Poole, Adam – Educational Review, 2022
This paper critically surveys four typologies that have been used to identify and understand international school teachers. The critique highlights two main limitations with the typologies. The first, ontological in nature, is that reifying teachers as a type does not capture the complexity of lived experience. The second, ethico-political in…

Mark, Melvin M. – American Journal of Evaluation, 2022
Premised on the idea that evaluators should be familiar with a range of approaches to program modifications, I review several existing approaches and then describe another, less well-recognized option. In this newer option, evaluators work with others to identify potentially needed adaptations for select program aspects "in advance." In…

Hadj Kacem, Yessine; Alshehri, Safa; Qaid, Talal – Journal of Information Technology Education: Innovations in Practice, 2022
Aim/Purpose: This paper presents a machine learning approach for analyzing Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs). The aim of this study is to find a model that can check whether a CLO is well written or not. Background: The use of machine learning algorithms has been, since many years, a prominent solution to predict learner performance in Outcome Based…

Gutz, Sarah E.; Stipancic, Kaila L.; Yunusova, Yana; Berry, James D.; Green, Jordan R. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: There is increasing interest in using automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems to evaluate impairment severity or speech intelligibility in speakers with dysarthria. We assessed the clinical validity of one currently available off-the-shelf (OTS) ASR system (i.e., a Google Cloud ASR API) for indexing sentence-level speech…

Wiggins, Benjamin; Hennesy, Cody; Vetruba, Brian; Logsdon, Alexis; Janisch, Emily – College & Research Libraries, 2022
Digital scholarship programs, a university unit of relatively recent origin, provide support and community for scholars integrating digital technologies into their research, teaching, and engagement work. But they have not been well defined in higher education scholarship and sometimes not even well understood on their campuses. To clarify the…

Pinot de Moira, Anne; Wheadon, Christopher; Christodoulou, Daisy – Research in Education, 2022
Writing is generally assessed internationally using rubric-based approaches, but there is a growing body of evidence to suggest that the reliability of such approaches is poor. In contrast, comparative judgement studies suggest that it is possible to assess open ended tasks such as writing with greater reliability. Many previous studies, however,…

Carl-Filip Smedberg – History of Education, 2025
In the 1960s, people across the West started imagining that they were in a societal transition. Crucially, in these future-oriented discussions, social class was often transformed into educational attainment as the main dividing line. These future studies garnered attention across the political spectrum, including the Swedish Conservative Party.…

Yu Bao; Jin Liu; Christine DiStefano; Ruyi Ding – Psychology in the Schools, 2025
Behavioral and emotional disorders in childhood can have lasting impacts in areas such as education and future employment, often extending into adulthood. Identifying the potential disorders in children's early grades is beneficial to provide proactive assistance. In this study, we employed a well-validated scale - the Strengths and Difficulties…

Anniek van Doornik; Marlies Welbie; Sharynne McLeod; Ellen Gerrits; Hayo Terband – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2025
Background: Children with speech sound disorders (SSD) are at higher risk of communication breakdown, but the impact of having an SSD may vary from child to child. Determining the severity of SSD helps speech-language therapists (SLTs) to recognise the extent of the problem and to identify and prioritise children who require intervention. Aims:…

Wolkowitz, Amanda A. – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2021
Decision consistency (DC) is the reliability of a classification decision based on a test score. In professional credentialing, the decision is often a high-stakes pass/fail decision. The current methods for estimating DC are computationally complex. The purpose of this research is to provide a computationally and conceptually simple method for…

Snoddy, Sean; Kurtz, Kenneth J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Analogical comparison of 2 provided cases promotes spontaneous analogical transfer by encouraging a more abstract representation of a target principle. This is widely understood as a process of schema abstraction that aids retrieval from memory in the absence of superficial similarity. The category status hypothesis states that if knowledge about…

Benz, Pierre; Bühlmann, Felix; Mach, André – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2021
Over the recent decades, the turn to managerial governance has thoroughly transformed the European university systems and, by extension, the careers of university professors. Scholars postulated that professors' careers have undergone an increasing formalization, that disciplinary careers have been hybridized, and that new modes of selection and…
