Perceived social-emotional competence (PSEC) refers to people's beliefs that they can be effective in their social-emotional interactions. This study examined teachers' PSEC in relation to their well-being and turnover intentions. Among 492 Australian teachers, results demonstrated that PSEC assessed at the start of a school term was associated…

This paper highlights an emergent form of gender inequality within schools, set against the backdrop of a perceived mental health "crisis" amongst young people in popular and media narratives.

This study, based on the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) model, examines how technological immersion, cultural novelty, and aesthetic complexity influence Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) students' learning feedback in contemporary Chinese mixed media art courses (specifically rice paper painting) through the mediating roles of…

Background: Socio-emotional learning is increasingly recognized as essential for student well-being and academic success. The RRRR methodology (Resilience, Rights, and Respectful Relationships) integrates these principles into everyday teaching practice. Methods: A case study was conducted in three Czech schools during the 2022/2023 academic year:…

This study investigated concerns about potential racial/ethnic bias in the Desired Results Developmental Profile (DRDP), a widely used observational assessment in early childhood education (ECE). Specifically, we examined whether the learning progressions (LPs) underlying the DRDP items exhibit differential applicability to children from…

This meta-analysis summarizes the available evidence on the effectiveness of student feedback interventions in primary and secondary schools on different aspects of teaching quality. It aims to examine indications of success conditions for an effective use of student feedback in practice. The analysis included 23 studies with 314 effect sizes. We…

This study examined the effectiveness of an intelligent tutoring system (ITS) driven by real-time feedback in enhancing students' mathematical learning outcomes, as defined by the Structure of Observed Learning Outcomes. Conducted within the domains of Measurement and Geometry, the study employed a randomized controlled trial involving 120…

Based on Sustainable Development Goals, a recent flurry of activity has begun concerning the responsibilities of teachers to support young children in recognising and responding to aspects of climate change. Less, however, is understood about the emotional impact of these interventions on children themselves, or the extent to which the way they…

Identifying the mental models held by students has been widely emphasized as being a pivotal aspect of effective science education. In fact, it allows us to understand students' conceptions, detect teaching-learning difficulties and tailor instruction accordingly. Hence, in this study, the plant nutrition mental models held by upper secondary…

This research utilized bibliometric analysis to assess both historic and current research trajectories and forecast upcoming research domains in social-emotional learning (SEL). We gathered 1,790 papers from the Web of Science database. Both co-citation and co-word analyses were used to highlight key publications, clarify the foundational…

Background: Attending and responding to when and where teachers are with respect to change--the temporal aspects of teacher learning--can yield more effective professional development (PD) efforts. Toward this end, we conceptualize phases of learning in a PD program, and how these phases are shaped by teacher learning ecologies. Methods:…
