Peer review is especially difficult to facilitate in advanced mathematical writing. Typically, only someone with an appropriate level of disciplinary knowledge can understand the workings of a mathematical proof, for example, let alone provide useful feedback to a novice proof-writer. This presents a challenge to writing programs and writing…

Online learning systems should support students preparedness for professional practice by equipping them with the necessary skills while keeping them engaged and active. In that regard, the development of online learning systems that support students' development and engagement with programming is a challenging process. Early career computer…

Cambridge undergraduates have regular active-learning opportunities in small-group tutorials, in which they solve problems and discuss ideas based on course material. Would they see any value in performing similar tasks in flipped-classroom settings, or would they regard the introduction of a second active-learning modality as redundant? Following…

In scientific inquiry learning, within-task guidance tailored to the learner's domain knowledge and inquiry skill may be essential to promote intended learning outcomes. However, due to dynamic complexity across the timeline of inquiry learning, principles for designing tailored guidance are elusive. In this study, experienced tutors provided…

Little was known about the experiences of K-5 online tutors. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore the lived experiences of online tutors regarding their pedagogical practices and digital tools used when tutoring students in Grades K-5. The community of inquiry model served as the conceptual framework. Data included online…

Article 1: One-on-one tutoring is the most effective teaching arrangement. Most schools and families, however, cannot afford to provide each child with a tutor. Peer tutoring in classrooms, a more feasible and scalable learning arrangement, increases learning for both tutors and tutees, but peer tutors' efficacy is often limited by their didactic…

The present study examined the extent to which adaptive feedback and just-in-time writing strategy instruction improved the quality of high school students' persuasive essays in the context of the Writing Pal (W-Pal). W-Pal is a technology-based writing tool that integrates automated writing evaluation into an intelligent tutoring system. Students…

The present study examined the extent to which adaptive feedback and just-in-time writing strategy instruction improved the quality of high school students' persuasive essays in the context of the Writing Pal (W-Pal). W-Pal is a technology-based writing tool that integrates automated writing evaluation into an intelligent tutoring system. Students…

Caregivers (i.e., parents and members of a child's caring community) are underappreciated stakeholders in learning analytics. Although caregiver involvement can enhance student academic outcomes, many obstacles hinder involvement, most notably knowledge gaps with respect to modern school curricula. An emerging topic of interest in learning…

Providing students with the appropriate math support can ensure they develop the skills and confidence they need to succeed. This Spotlight explores effective strategies for providing targeted math support, addressing math anxiety, and promoting student success. From combating math anxiety to leveraging in-school tutoring, these articles offer…

The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) into educational management offers personalized learning, adaptive tutoring, and efficient resource management. However, ethical considerations such as fairness, transparency, accountability, and privacy are crucial. This paper reviews literature and conducts a bibliometric analysis on ethical AI…

The emergence of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has reignited long-standing debates about technology's role in education. While GenAI potentially offers personalized learning, adaptive tutoring, and automated support, it also raises concerns about algorithmic bias, de-skilling educators, and diminishing human connection. This…

Argumentation is fundamental and essential in mathematics education. It promotes deep mathematical understanding and helps students connect abstract ideas logically. However, teachers and students in the traditional teacher-centered classroom face difficulties teaching and learning math argumentation. In this article, a cooperative…

This study presents the first within-program, within-tutor experimental evidence comparing the impact of in-person versus remote tutoring. Based on results from an early literacy tutoring initiative delivered by university students over Summer 2023, we find no statistically significant differences in students' literacy outcomes by instructional…

This study investigates the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on personalized learning, automated assessment and feedback, intelligent tutoring systems, and student engagement in online learning environments. The research focuses on fourth-year English major students at a university in the Mekong Delta region, utilizing a mixed-methods…
