Preparing youth, primarily as they become high school graduates, to be ready to enter college and careers, has been a primary driving force in primary and secondary education for over 20 years. However, there lacks consistency in the definition and of the true idea of college and career readiness in the twenty-first century. Additionally, there is…

The assessment of computational thinking (CT) is crucial for improving pedagogical practice, identifying areas for improvement, and implementing efficient educational interventions. Despite growing interest in CT in primary education, existing assessments often focus on specific dimensions, providing a fragmented understanding. In this research, a…

Most core process control courses teach skills little used in industrial practice. In contrast, learning how process objectives translate to control objectives in the form of continuous feedback controls, continuous and discrete logic, and sequential logic for batch operations is more relevant to practicing chemical engineers. These design and…

Socially shared regulated learning (SSRL) plays a crucial role in enhancing collaborative learning processes. This study explores the association between medical residents' team action, SSRL and heart rate changes using BioWorld, a technology-rich learning environment (TRE) designed to support medical practitioners' diagnostic reasoning skills as…

Given the high degree of autonomy and epistemic competencies required for university learning, students need the ability to make rational decisions rather than relying on heuristics and intuition. Previous cross-sectional findings indicate positive relations between rational thinking and university academic outcomes, but longitudinal research is…

In this study, it was aimed to translate and adapt the Computational Thinking Multidimensional Test (CTMT) developed by Kang et al. (2023) into Turkish and to investigate its psychometric qualities with Turkish university students. Following the translation procedures of the CTMT with 12 multiple-choice questions developed based on real-life…

Purpose: This study examines how educational orientation, actively open-minded thinking (AOT), and democratic ideals relate to misinformation discernment in an era of misleading media content. Methodology: Using an online survey, nationally representative adults (n=3060) and university students (n=1097) completed measures assessing misinformation…

The goal of this study was to identify the onset and magnitude of prediction of early cognition to adult socioeconomic outcomes. Specifically, we were interested in examining which cognitive skills measured at 15, 24, 36, and 54 months predict educational attainment and salary at age 26. Data (N = 1364, 52% male) included a diverse sample (76%…

This study presents a scoping review of factors influencing innovation-driven entrepreneurship among undergraduate students in private higher education institutions. Guided by the methodological framework of Arksey and O'Malley (2005) and the PRISMA-ScR reporting guidelines (Tricco et al., 2018), this review systematically synthesizes theoretical,…

Occupational therapy inherently involves the application of design and co-design skills within professional practice, yet there is limited evidence about how these skills are taught to students. This study used a qualitative descriptive design to explore the perspectives of occupational therapy educators in Australia and New Zealand on how and…

Teachers engaged in moral education face a puzzle. We aim to bring children up to believe in and subscribe to basic moral standards such as prohibitions against harming others and requirements to help when we can. At the same time, there is widespread reasonable disagreement about the content and justification of morality, and teaching standards…

Across development, young children reason about why social inequities exist. However, when left to their own devices, young children might engage in "internal thinking," reasoning that the inequity is simply a justified disparity explained by features internal to social groups (e.g., genetics, intellect, abilities, values). Internal…

Developing students' competence in algorithmic thinking is emerging as an objective of mathematics education, but despite its inclusion in mathematics curricula around the world, research into students' algorithmic thinking seems to be falling behind in this curriculum reform. The aim of this study was to investigate how the mathematical modelling…

Increasing mental health issues, such as emotional problems, pose a threat for the academic performance of undergraduate students. We propose a route connecting emotional problems and academic performance through executive functioning skills (EFS). Despite the abundance of research on the topic of EFS, there is a significant gap in understanding…

The identification in this study with the aim is to describe how difficult it is for students to think reflectively when solving math problems, especially in linear programming material. Based on the purpose of this study, the type of research is qualitative with a descriptive exploratory approach. Data collection techniques used are: (1) test…
