Suicide is a major public health issue in the United States and schools of social work have an important role to play in educating future social workers in suicide prevention. This article describes the results of a survey of BSW and MSW practice instructors (N = 259) exploring the strategies used to teach suicide content, including resources used…

The three components that form the basis of the educational process are the teacher, the learner, and the environment. These three components are affected by the developing and changing technology as a result of globalization considerably. Teaching and learning techniques should be updated and connected with these developments; new tools are…

"International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education" (IJATE) is one of the educational journals that is indexed in major worldwide databases such as Web of Science (WoS) and ERIC. This study presents the bibliometric characteristics of articles published in IJATE between 2014 and 2021 through the bibliometric analyses. Harzing's…

This study aimed at exploring the understanding of concept inventories for classroom assessment by physics tutors and pre-service teachers in selected diploma teachers' training colleges in Tanzania. The study employed a qualitative research approach and a case study design. Eight physics tutors and 20 second-year pre-service physics teachers from…

The purpose of this paper is to extend and evaluate methods of "Bayesian historical borrowing" applied to longitudinal data with a focus on parameter recovery and predictive performance. Bayesian historical borrowing allows researchers to utilize information from previous data sources and to adjust the extent of borrowing based on the…

Trial-based functional analysis (TBFA) is an accurate and ecologically valid assessment of challenging behavior. Further, there is evidence to suggest that individuals with minimal exposure to behavior analytic assessment methodology (e.g., parents, teachers) can quickly be trained to conduct TBFAs in naturalistic settings (e.g., schools, homes).…

Despite the value of self- and peer-assessments in supporting learning, research reports mixed findings about self- and peer-assessments of writing, raising intriguing queries about the validity and utility of student-led assessment in a writing classroom. Applying a many-facets Rasch measurement approach, this quantitative study investigated 53…

This research probed the perceptions of secondary school science teachers concerning the objective and utility of assessment, exploring the influences of gender, teaching experience, and specific science subject components. A total of 100 secondary school teachers from Selangor participated in the study, completing the Teacher's Conception of…

Evaluation of community-campus partnerships is a contested topic and, in many ways, is still at an early stage of development. With growing momentum behind community-university collaboration and increased pressure to document the positive impact of universities, there is a pressing need for research and innovation in this area. Many community…

Although various aspects of school leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic have been addressed in the emerging literature, there is a dearth of studies focusing on the effects of the major assessment changes that took place during this period. This article reports on a study of three case-study schools in England, analysing leaders' experiences of…

The application of digital games in higher education is on the rise in engineering. With the recent COVID-19 restrictions and the move to virtual learning, the interest in and the need for virtual laboratories and technology-enhanced experiential learning tools like digital games are expected to rise. This paper presents a review of the current…

With the increasing bandwidth, videos have been gradually used as submissions for online peer assessment activities. However, their transient nature imposes a high cognitive load on students, particularly lowability students. Therefore, reviewers' ability is a key factor that may affect the reviewing process and performance in an online video peer…

The necessary permissions were obtained, and the process was initiated. Proficient translators in both cultures were…

This study investigates the potential of automated classification using prompt-based learning approaches with transformer models (large language models trained in an unsupervised manner) for a domain-specific classification task. Prompt-based learning with zero or few shots has the potential to (1) make use of artificial intelligence without…

This article explores the value of dynamic assessment (DA) for college English writing (CEW), a required course for millions of students in China that typically enrolls 50 students in each class. An interventionist approach to DA, in which mediation and administration are standardized, was selected and supplemented with a…
