This paper uses sentiment analysis to measure student satisfaction with college business courses and instructors. The objective is to identify factors that nurture student success and satisfaction in online business courses and to determine if they differ from the characteristics most valued in face-to-face environments. Partial least squares…

Background: Teaching quality is assumed to be an essential prerequisite for student learning outcomes such as mathematics confidence and mathematics achievement. Notwithstanding its significance, empirical research examining the relations between teaching quality and learning outcomes is still limited, particularly among primary school students.…

Although there is no globally accepted definition to guide micro-credential activity in higher education, many seek to boost the employability prospects of earners. To do this well, micro-credentials need to indicate skills and competencies. Assessment ensures those skills and competencies are verified, enabling trust and communication in the…

This paper explores institutional leaders' perceptions of learning and teaching involved in facilitating and assessing Student Evaluations of Teaching (SET) survey instruments across Australian regional universities. It focuses on how they understand the function of SET, strategies used to mitigate bias, and potential residual harm. Through…

Background: Educational assessments increasingly shift towards computer-based formats. Many studies have explored how different types of automated feedback affect learning. However, few studies have investigated how digital performance feedback affects test takers' ratings of affective-motivational reactions during a testing session. Method: In…

This scoping review examined 41 peer-reviewed articles on digital simulations and serious games used in educating school leaders. Content analysis documented the wide range of theories and topics incorporated into existing educational leadership simulations, e.g. instructional leadership, change management, problem-solving, coaching, and ethical…

Purpose: International studies have emphasised the importance of effective teaching for student learning. However, few studies have investigated teaching practices in Bangladesh.

Background: Limited knowledge exists regarding the effectiveness of training programmes for individuals with Down syndrome, particularly innovative approaches like tele-coaching. Our pilot study aimed to improve strength and balance using tele-coaching sessions in children with Down syndrome. Materials and Methods: We enrolled 18 children and…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of iCoaching during reading intervention. An interventionist received mentoring support to implement iCoaching. The goal of the study was to increase teacher-delivered, behavior-specific praise (BSP). Design/methodology/approach: Using a single-case multiple-probe design…

As automation becomes increasingly integrated into complex military tasks, its role in supporting human performance under fatigue warrants careful evaluation. A specific military use case in which automatic target cuing (ATC) is integrated is undersea threat detection (UTD). These types of tasks demand sustained vigilance, accurate classification,…

This study examined various perspectives on 21st-century teachers, focusing on their definitions, characteristics, roles, developmental guidelines, challenges encountered during growth, and assessment criteria. The primary objective was to create educational modules for online self-training programs that enhanced teachers' skills. The research was…

Novice teachers are more likely than their more experienced counterparts to leave the field teaching, which further exacerbates the national teacher shortage. This creates a need to take concerted steps to prepare and retain novice teachers. The Every Student Succeeds Act emphasizes using evidence-based classroom and behavior management practices…

Assessment experiences of ethnic minority students in UK higher education present complex challenges in identifying salient barriers to inclusive practice. Ethnic minority students can be excluded by a range of factors which include the procedure, content and context of assessment. By analysing twelve narratives of British Pakistani male…

This study provides a comparative assessment of the capabilities of leading artificial intelligence (AI) tools and human participants in a business management education context. Specifically, we (a) assess how well current language models perform in providing answers to standardised essay-type assessments in a business and management education…

While potentially useful in quality teaching and formative assessment, research indicates that student evaluations of teaching (SETs) are not a valid measure of teaching effectiveness and in fact suffer from many areas of bias including gender and racial bias. They are also impacted by many factors outside of the instructor's control, such as the…
