Researchers and practitioners from different disciplines (e.g., educational science, computer science, statistics) continuously enter the rapidly developing research field of learning analytics (LA) and bring along different perspectives and experiences in research design and methodology. Scientific communities share common problems, concepts,…

This study investigates the multifaceted impact of generative AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini) on higher education. Employing grounded theory, we analyzed the experiences of eight students using these tools in their academic work. Our findings reveal both significant benefits, including enhanced learning, efficiency, and accessibility, and…

Purpose: This study aimed to analyze audiovisual speech perception strategies in children with dyslexia, specifically addressing difficulties in phonological processing and reading. Our objective was to investigate the impact of different training programs (phonetic and visual) on learning and assess individual differences in strategy preferences…

Intelligence is a key factor underlying individual differences in learning. This study aimed to determine whether students with strong linguistic and logical-mathematical intelligences learned better or more quickly than those with weak linguistic and logical-mathematical intelligences. Forty-nine senior high school students were taught reading…

The Learning and Study Strategies Inventory (LASSI) is a widely recognised tool for assessing students' learning processes by measuring key components of their study behaviours and attitudes. This research explores the interplay of three components of the LASSI inventory, skill, will, and self-regulation, and their collective impact on English as…

This study evaluated the effects of the purposes of the homework given by teachers (preparatory homework, reinforcement homework, and extension homework) on the learning levels of the students. In this study, technical/scientific/collaborative design, one of the action research types, was used. The research was conducted with three teachers…

Many educational philosophers have criticized the shift from lifelong education to lifelong learning. Gert Biesta, in particular, claims that learning individualistically promotes 'learnification', that is, a pernicious politics at the expense of relational educational experiences. While I endorse many of his critical points, I have argued that…

Research on learning by teaching has mostly focused on the learning effects of teaching after preparing individually to teach. This study investigated the impact of preparing collaboratively (versus individually) to teach on learning by teaching. Japanese undergraduate students (n = 96) provided instructional explanations on video or listened to…
