Aina Casaponsa; M. Acebo García-Guerrero; Alejandro Martínez; Natalia Ojeda; Guillaume Thierry; Panos Athanasopoulos – Language Learning, 2024
"Taza" in Spanish refers to cups and mugs in English, whereas glass refers to different glass types in Spanish: "copa" and "vaso." It is still unclear whether such categorical distinctions induce early perceptual differences in speakers of different languages. In this study, for the first time, we report symmetrical…

Christopher J. Levesque; Bianca Jimmerson – Education Libraries, 2024
Library staff developed a project to reclassify the Curriculum Materials Collection of a specialty library on the campus of a regional comprehensive university. Materials were reclassified from a custom classification system derived from those developed by Lois Belfield Watt in 1962 and Harlan Johnson in 1973, to the Dewey Decimal Classification.…

Nadine Bisswang; Dimitri Petrik; Erich Heumüller; Sebastian Richter – Electronic Journal of e-Learning, 2024
Virtual reality has emerged as an influential technology in the educational landscape, offering learners and teachers immersive and interactive experiences that enhance traditional teaching methods. However, despite the increasing importance of virtual reality in education, a systematic description and classification of virtual reality use cases…

Carlos Ledezma – REDIMAT - Journal of Research in Mathematics Education, 2024
Mathematical modelling has acquired relevance in different fields at an international level, both in education and research. This article states that, throughout the construction of the theoretical corpus of this mathematical process and competency -- among others -- two big issues have occurred: one of terminological nature since the definitions…

David Wees – Natural Sciences Education, 2024
Requiring students to create weed collections is a common technique for teaching weed identification. Data compiled over 18 years from students' weed collections in a college-level course included over 350 species of plants. Almost half of the specimens belonged to the Asteraceae or Poaceae. The 30 most frequently collected species accounted for…

Uk Hyun Cho – ProQuest LLC, 2024
The present study investigates the influence of multidimensionality on linking and equating in a unidimensional IRT. Two hypothetical multidimensional scenarios are explored under a nonequivalent group common-item equating design. The first scenario examines test forms designed to measure multiple constructs, while the second scenario examines a…

Susan Smith; Neil Sutherland; David Allen – Teaching in Higher Education, 2024
Higher education systems exhibit varying degrees of heterogeneity in approaches to undergraduate degree classification -- specifically for this Point of Departure: the wide variety of 'Degree Classification Algorithms' (DCAs) used to calculate students' final awards. To date, the impact of DCA variation remains an under-researched 'black box', and…

Russell P. Houpt; Kevin J. Grimm; Aaron T. McLaughlin; Daryl R. Van Tongeren – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
Numerous methods exist to determine the optimal number of classes when using latent profile analysis (LPA), but none are consistently correct. Recently, the likelihood incremental percentage per parameter (LI3P) was proposed as a model effect-size measure. To evaluate the LI3P more thoroughly, we simulated 50,000 datasets, manipulating factors…

Yi Sun; Hongbiao Yin – Social Psychology of Education: An International Journal, 2024
Using Habermas's three human interests as a philosophical lens, a typology of emotion regulation was developed based on previous work. There are three theoretical perspectives on emotion regulation. The first perspective, "emotion regulation as steps," considers emotion regulation as an individual phenomenon and detachable entity. The…

Yasuko Kanno; Cecilia Rios-Aguilar; George C. Bunch – TESOL Journal, 2024
In this essay, the authors explore the dilemmas facing researchers, educators, and policymakers in how to refer to multilingual students who are deemed in need of language support in school. There is a growing concern with the label "English learner," the term currently used in U.S. federal legislation, as focusing exclusively on…

Andrew Jaciw – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Background: Rooted in problems of social justice, intersectionality addresses intragroup differences in impacts and outcomes and the compound discrimination at specific intersections of classification (Crenshaw,1991). It stresses that deficits/debts in outcomes often occur non-additively; for example, discriminatory hiring practices can be…

Alessandro Rosborough; Lauren E. Johnson; Jennifer J. Wimmer – Language Teaching Research Quarterly, 2024
This conceptual paper deals with ways in which gesture or embodied utterances create deictic expressions (i.e., deixis) that are relevant to second language teaching and learning. While many gesture types have been found to be material carriers of meaning (McNeill, 1992; Vygotsky, 1986), deictics have the ability and function to create new…

Wang, Yan; Kim, Eunsook; Yi, Zhiyao – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2022
Latent profile analysis (LPA) identifies heterogeneous subgroups based on continuous indicators that represent different dimensions. It is a common practice to measure each dimension using items, create composite or factor scores for each dimension, and use these scores as indicators of profiles in LPA. In this case, measurement models for…

Christensen, Rhonda; Hodges, Charles B.; Spector, J. Michael – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2022
Replicating research studies is considered one way of establishing validity and confidence of findings in a field of study. In this paper, we introduce a replication framework for classifying studies conducted in the area of educational technology as a possible guide to conducting and reporting replication studies in the field. The paper includes…

Justine Hamilton; McKay Moore Sohlberg; Lyn Turkstra – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Cognitive rehabilitation is a complex and specialized area of practice, as it aims to support individuals with diverse neuropsychological profiles, personal characteristics, and intersectionalities in achieving meaningful, functional change in personally relevant aspects of their everyday lives. In many ways, cognitive rehabilitation…
