Teachers need technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) for teaching with technology, and its assessment is crucial for research and practice. Previous literature reviews on TPACK assessment were not specific to a content area (e.g., mathematics), although, by definition, the TPACK framework includes content-specific knowledge facets.…

Background: Automatically graded programming assignments provide instant feedback to students and significantly reduce manual grading time for instructors. However, creating comprehensive suites of test cases for programming problems within automatic graders can be time-consuming and complex. The effort needed to define test suites may deter some…

This study explores student perceptions of learning to code by evaluating AI-generated Python code. In an experimental exercise given to students in an introductory Python course at a business university, students wrote their own solutions to a Python program and then compared their solutions with AI-generated code. They evaluated both solutions…

The aim of this paper is to provide insights into how young people who have been forced to migrate perceive school health education. Eighteen individuals aged 15-19 years (10 females, 8 males, average age 16.9 years) took part in either focus group interviews (n = 7) or individual interviews (n = 1). Participants were first presented with short…

The prevalence of bullying for online students is gaining importance as school safety incidents continue to rise. With more students choosing to attend online schools, understanding how bullying plays out in this setting is essential. Several factors were examined by surveying educators of an online school and included occurrences of types of…

Investigating students' thinking in classroom tasks, particularly in science and engineering, is essential for improving educational practices and advancing student learning. In this context, the notion of "Ways of Thinking" (WoT) has gained traction in STEM education, offering a framework to explore how students approach and solve…

Digital teachers represent an innovative fusion of media and artificial intelligence (AI) within online educational environments. However, the specific ways in which the appearance anthropomorphism of digital teachers influences the delivery of different knowledge types remain insufficiently understood. Drawing on Embodied Learning Theory and…

Oral diseases present higher prevalence in people with mental disorders, which makes dental care a possible means for screening and referral to mental health specialized care. Because some dental conditions can be caused by or associated with mental disorders, dentists can identify patients' mental health care needs. However, they have shown low…

Specific learning and attention difficulties are often first identified in childhood, but they can cause lifelong academic and occupational challenges. We explored the prevalence of these difficulties and the representation of sex and ethnicity amongst all first-year students in United Kingdom (UK) higher education (HE) across 12 years--almost 5.7…

This article hinges on the conviction that the centuries-long dominance of colonial worldview has resulted in the creation of educational practices that perpetuate colonial forms of relationship denial in mostly subtle and unquestioned ways. As part of an ongoing effort to honour knowledge systems and ways of being that are not fully circumscribed…

The rapid adoption and evolution of generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT and Gemini have impacted marketing education and practice. This paper introduces a prompt engineering assignment that utilizes generative AI to build critical thinking skills through the development of keyword research strategies, customer profiles, and…

Global student mobility and universities' commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion require shifts in teaching practices. This qualitative study in the United States Midwest context examines instructor learning in an innovative faculty development program consisting of (1) professional development sessions, (2) language and content-specialist…

This paper examines how self-efficacy, intrinsic motivation and test anxiety interact with the delivery method (online vs. face-to-face) in upper-level classes (third- and fourth-year students) in their association with course performance. Previous research in accounting [e.g. Chen et al., 2013. Online accounting education vs. in-class delivery:…

Background: Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) content in mathematics education has gained increasing attention in various countries. However, despite the critical role that textbooks play in mathematics teaching and learning, existing research on mathematics textbooks has largely overlooked examining STEM content and their…

Accurately identifying the factors that influence the online learning of middle-school students is crucial for improving its effectiveness. However, existing studies rarely focus on the factors influencing the learning outcomes of middle-school students, and traditional methods often struggle to identify the nonlinear relationships among those…
