The cognitive activation theory…

Traditional assessment design focuses on outcomes and often disregards how students perceive their abilities, process emotions, or self-express. This indifference can undermine assessment outcomes and evaluation reliability (Hattie, 2023; Nilson, 2023; Reibel 2022). This paper introduces "empathetic assessment design" (EAD), a framework…

The psychological dimensions of the teaching of mathematics are attracting increasing attention in mathematics education research. This study presents a cross-national comparative study of the mathematical identities of a sample of preservice and inservice primary teachers in the partner institutions (in Italy, France, and Spain) of a specific…

Anxiety disorders occurs at a high rate amongst autistic children. Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) is a reasonably well-established multi-component intervention used to reduce anxiety in this population. Whilst there are known effective intervention components in CBT for treating anxiety among autistic children, there are few guidelines for how…

However, surprisingly, limited studies have examined the values espoused by students in science education. This review…

Transdisciplinary research is increasingly important for solving complex societal problems. Institutions aim to train graduate students to engage in transdisciplinary research. However, limited evidence exists regarding the process by which students learn transdisciplinary thinking. This qualitative study explored graduate students' pathways of…

This study examines the psychological well-being of teachers as a key factor in promoting sustainable professional practice within the contemporary educational landscape. A quantitative research design was employed, using the Teachers' Psychological Well-Being Questionnaire (Renshaw, 2020) to collect data from a sample of 100 teachers. The…

Higher education institutions (HEIs) navigate dynamic environments shaped by technological advancements and evolving labour market demands. To maintain competitiveness and high-quality offerings, HEIs require appropriate instruments. This study examines the application of the Student Journey Mapping (JM) approach within the higher education…

This review explores the perceptions of experienced registered nurses (RNs) regarding the perceived work-readiness of new graduate nurses (NGNs) during their first year in practice. It identifies three key themes: expectations of RNs and NGNs previous exposure to clinical environments, organisational challenges, and NGN competence. Despite the…

The use of collaborative learning teams is successful at many traditional higher education institutions. However, the use of collaborative learning teams at 3 University X campuses was noted as a source of frustration for students and may affect student satisfaction. Lower satisfaction rates equate to lower rates of success, graduation, referrals,…

We used a multi-method design to determine the quality of technology-enhanced performance-based peer feedback, teacher candidate strategy use, and child behaviors over time. We also explored teacher candidates' perceived social validity of technology-enhanced performance-based peer feedback. Eleven teacher candidates enrolled in an early childhood…

Although assessment of student learning remains a thorny area for co-creation in education, a growing number of researchers and practitioners advocate and enact partnership in formative and summative assessment as part of equity work. In this case study, we join these efforts in reflecting on students' and our own experiences of the midterm…
