The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of an affective recommendation system on the developmental trajectories of prospective teachers' emotional patterns, integrated with a Simulated Virtual Classroom (SVC) platform called SimInClass. SVC exposes teachers to a range of student discourses in the form of unexpected stimuli. Fifteen…

We study university admissions under a centralized system that uses grades and standardized test scores to match applicants to university programs. In the context of this system, we explore affirmative action policies that seek to narrow the gap between the admission rates of different socio-demographic groups while still accepting students with…

The digital trails that students leave behind on e-learning environments have attracted considerable attention in the past decade. Typically, some of these traces involve the production of different kinds of texts. While students routinely produce a bulk of texts in online learning settings, the potential of such linguistic features has not been…

Teacher leadership is critical for building capacity and improving student learning. With the demands placed upon school principals, shared leadership is a necessary component of high performing schools. However, sustained teacher leadership is only possible if we attend to the wellbeing of teacher leaders, and the pandemic has brought significant…

This research aims to identify the self-perception of university students enrolled in business science training programs to develop common learning. It is a quantitative study based on the positivist empirical-analytical epistemological orientation. The descriptive cross-sectional experimental deductive method was implemented. The population…

The concept of Artificial Intelligence (AI) might seem something very distant from the world of schools: a theme that is far from today's reality, especially when the education and training system is committed to tackling the problems associated with the pandemic situation. However, the impact that AI is producing in various areas of our life also…

The paper presents a system of emotions and attention analysis during e-learning multimedia contents consumption. The paper wants to explore the possible connections between facial expressions and user engagement while consuming multimedia e-learning courses such as tutorials, on-line quizzes and learning games. If a relevant connection emerges we…

According to the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing (2014), one aspect of test fairness concerns examinees having comparable opportunities to learn prior to taking tests. Meanwhile, many researchers are developing platforms enhanced by artificial intelligence (AI) that can personalize curriculum to individual student needs. This…

Computers in education, along with soft-computing technology applications, have revolutionised global interconnectedness and the need for a well-educated workforce. Many studies worldwide explore technology in education, often relying on systematic reviews, though concerns about selection bias have emerged. This article takes a different approach,…

Past research has yielded ample knowledge regarding the design of analytics-based tools for teachers and has found beneficial effects of several tools on teaching and learning. Yet there is relatively little knowledge regarding the design of tools that support teachers when a class of students uses AI-based tutoring software for self-paced…

The work in this dissertation is presented in two parts. The first part (Chapters 3 and 4) details work relating to students' explanations of reaction mechanisms in organic chemistry. The second part (Chapters 5 and 6) details work relating to the evaluating the uptake of research-based instructional practices in introductory chemistry,…

The purpose of this quantitative research study was to determine if there were differences in perception among K-12 Indiana public school principals regarding the emotional intelligence of superintendents, specifically, the domains of self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills. The independent variables included…

This study investigated the causal relationship between mathematical creativity and mathematical intelligence. Four hundred thirty-nine 8th-grade students, age ranged from 11 to 14 years, were included in the sample of this study by random cluster technique on which mathematical creativity and Hindi adaptation of mathematical intelligence test…

For individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), long-term outcomes have been troubling, and intact IQ has not been shown to be protective. Nevertheless, relatively little research into adaptive functioning among adults with ASD has been completed to date. Therefore, both adaptive functioning and comorbid psychopathology were assessed among 52…
