A quasi-experimental design was employed to examine the effects of flipped classroom approach on students' academic achievement, self-regulation skills, and interaction level in synchronous distance education. The participants consisted of 50 undergraduate students. In an online synchronous course, the Zoom application and its breakout rooms were…

In this paper, we argue that during collaborative classroom interactions, 'the mangle' is entangled in different forms of agency that (dis)enable mathematical agency. We first unpack student's agency in the context of collaborative classroom interactions, and then use excerpts of interactions to illustrate how 'the mangle' is entangled in…

Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) face milestones in understanding other's preferences and intentions that in turn affect their reciprocity and interaction skills during a collaborative partnership. Investigators are advocating the use of digital-medium-based multiuser platforms to encourage learning of collaborative interaction…

The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to explore how instructors at community colleges in the United States described instructor social presence developed through their use of video communication in their online classroom for interactions for learning, socialization of content, community development, and the overall learning…

The Home Numeracy Environment (HNE) is an essential factor that helps explain children's numeracy skills. Research in this field has been developed mostly focused on monolingual English-speaking families. More recent studies have analyzed this construct for Latine families using existing HNE measures. However, the existing HNE scales have not…

A campus flashpoint is an incident, particularly related to cultural identity, that causes significant disturbances in the community. These flashpoints are currently endemic and can have a variety of negative repercussions for higher education institutions. This study aims to better understand the experiences and behaviors of senior leaders in…

Since socioscientific issues (SSI) are scientific issues situated in the larger society, it is important for many students to understand and effectively communicate information surrounding them. In-class small groups have been used by science instructors to provide students the opportunity to discuss and negotiate difficult SSI. However, learning…

The purpose of this qualitative study is to explore the lived experiences of women leaders in higher education, specifically women who served as the first female presidents of colleges and universities. This study identifies ways in which patriarchal constructs of power mediate higher education spaces and how women leaders make meaning of,…

The idea that a vocabulary is a network of words is one that has become a common theme of the second language (L2) vocabulary research literature. However, not many people have considered the wider implications of this powerful metaphor. This paper is the first in a series of workshops that examines some of these implications. In this first…

Genotype-by-environment interaction (GxE) studies probe heterogeneity in response to risk factors or interventions. Popular methods for estimation of GxE examine multiplicative interactions between individual genetic and environmental measures. However, risk factors and interventions may modulate the total variance of an epidemiological outcome…

This study identifies the assets that principals use to support school based mental health care [SBMH] and makes several recommendations for increasing the efficacy of principals in interacting with SBMH systems and includes their recommendations for improvement in fostering, sustaining, and improving SBMH. Mental health needs are a historically…

The overall prevalence of autism is increasing in the Black community. Few studies examine the perspectives of Black, autistic individuals regarding interactions with law enforcement officers--both in school and beyond. The purpose of this dissertation was to explore the experiences and perspectives of Black, autistic individuals and law…

This paper describes the development and execution of an exhibition in an academic museum setting. The exhibition is presented as a self-directed learning intervention. The development process included conceptual development, the selection of exhibition materials, the creation of didactic written materials, spatial arrangement of the materials,…

This study applied the 'productive interactions' approach of research impact assessment to the case of maritime piracy research in South Africa. The focus was on the stakeholder interactions associated with the doctoral work and related activities of an individual researcher. A set of documents--provided by the researcher as evidence of potential…

The current study is an approximate replication of Gray and DiLoreto's (2016) study, which proposed a model predicting that course structure, learner interaction and instructor presence would influence students' perceived learning and satisfaction in online learning, with student engagement acting as a mediator between two of the predictors and…
