Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine university students' behaviours and perceptions relating to part-time working, particularly the impact of external factors such as COVID-19, on their work activity. Design/methodology/approach: A structured, online questionnaire was issued to Business Management students at a UK university. A total…

The implications of the circular economy system are important in creating a balance of sustainable economic activities. This study aims to analyze student awareness as agents of change towards circular economy principles and practices in terms of knowledge, attitude, and behavior (KAB) variables based on a gender perspective and the correlation…

Challenge Based Learning (CBL) is an educational approach that has gained popularity in response to the need for authentic learning environments. While the CBL literature is predominantly focused on cases of pedagogical implementations, the actual processes by which students develop CBL projects remain under-investigated. This shortitudinal study…

Predicting quitting rules is critical in visual search: Did I search enough for a cancer nodule in a breast X-ray or a threat in a baggage airport scanner? This study examines the predictive power of search organization indexes like best-r, mean ITD, PAO, or intersection rates as optimal criteria to leave a search in foraging (looking for several…

Medical simulation education allows trainees to work together in teams, and to practise assuming the roles of leader and followers, while completing real-world scenarios designed to develop the skills needed to be effective in clinical practice. Despite the importance of residents developing leadership skills to optimize performance and patient…

Our work contributes to existing research on student loyalty by testing a model that includes organisational justice as a predictor. In Study 1 (n = 257, Polish sample), students' perceived organisational justice of their university was a positive predictor of their loyalty. In Study 2 (n = 522, Polish sample), we replicated these findings and…

Purpose: This study contributes to the current body of literature on students' understanding of academic misconduct, plagiarism, forms of plagiarism, the reasons they plagiarize, the sanctions imposed by academics for plagiarizing and the methods to address plagiarism in written assessments within the Faculty of Natural Sciences, University of…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly relevant, and students need to understand the concept. To design an effective AI program for schools, we need to find ways to expose students to AI knowledge, provide AI learning opportunities, and create engaging AI experiences. However, there is a lack of trained teachers who can facilitate…

Bullying remains a serious problem in schools in England and internationally despite the plethora of research, interventions and policies which aim to address it. The majority of research and interventions are based on a traditional approach where school bullying is constructed as involving a clear imbalance of power between individuals. Recently,…

Students with specific learning disabilities (SLDs) sometimes experience anger, which can negatively affect their academic performance and social relationships if not managed properly. Prevention and intervention programs are beneficial in addressing this issue. Bibliotherapy is an effective method for anger management and is categorized into…

Inequity is persistent in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics classrooms despite significant attention to upending it. In order to better understand how and why inequity persists, an analysis is presented of 27 self-identified white male physics faculty and graduate students responding to an interview prompt about the social…

Virtual tools are rapidly supplementing physical tools in classrooms. Although extensive research has compared the benefits of using virtual and physical manipulatives, few studies have systematically explored the learning benefits of using a physical and a virtual tool. As the major learning goal in science, technology, engineering, and…

Nudging is a strategy from behavioural economics that subtly influences behaviour by changing the environment. Despite its recent introduction in education, no overview exists of what behavioural interventions are already practiced in education, and how these fit within nudging frameworks. In this qualitative study, we investigated what nudges are…

Classroom management can be a significant challenge for teachers, especially novice teachers who report classroom management as their highest need for professional development. School districts are often left with the burden of providing such professional development but typically need more time and resources to provide extensive coaching. There…

Involvement with the juvenile justice system carries immense consequences both to detained youth and to society more broadly. Extant research on the "school-to-prison pipeline" has often focused on school disciplinary practices such as suspension with less attention on understanding the impact of school referrals to the juvenile justice…
