Employing a combined methodology of bibliometric analysis and systematic literature review, the research analyzes trends, methodologies,…

Funded through a federal Education Innovation and Research grant, Rural Connect is a regional model of collaborative professional learning (PL) and practice-connected support for rural educators. Through a network of cross-district learning communities that integrate literacy into content-area curriculum, the intervention provides a platform for…

This study evaluates the impact of incorporating mixed reality--including both augmented and virtual reality--into auto-mechanics training for students enrolled in selected public technical technological institutes in Ecuador. The intervention aims to enhance students' understanding of automotive mechanics by teaching the fundamental principles of…

The increasing demand for a diverse pool of computing talent combined with a persistent shortage of skilled workers has engendered a need to support students pursuing Computer Science (CS) careers. Students often cite social isolation and lack of support as reasons for withdrawing from computing programs. This is especially true for those from…

In Vietnamese secondary education, traditional science teaching that focuses on theory over practical application presents a challenge to developing students' scientific competence, a key priority of the national curriculum. Scientific competence is broadly defined as the ability to explain phenomena, conduct investigations, and apply knowledge in…

Twenty-five years after the introduction of Carroll's (1993) Three Stratum (3S) theory of intelligence and McGrew's (1997) subsequent synthesis of 3S with the extended Gf-Gc / Horn-Cattell theory, the Cattell-Horn-Carroll (CHC) theory represents the prevailing framework by which the structure of human cognitive and intellectual abilities is…

Background: As cost and access barriers to ultrasound technology have decreased, interest in using ultrasound visual biofeedback (U-VBF) as a tool for remediating speech sound disorders (SSD) has increased. A growing body of research has investigated U-VBF in intervention for developmental SSD; however, diversity in study design, participant…

Behavior analysts visually analyze graphs to interpret data in order to make data-based decisions. Though front-line employees implement behavioral interventions on a daily basis, they are not often trained to interpret these data. A clinical decision-making model may aid front-line employees in learning how to interpret graphs. A…

Background: There is limited knowledge about how young people with intellectual disability can be facilitated in their process of deciding about parenthood.
