The purpose of this study was to measure teacher well-being and assess specific ways administrators affect the physical and mental health of staff. A modified PERMAH Workplace Survey was administered in response to a significant decline in annual climate survey results postpandemic. Key findings were analyzed through the lens of the Areas of…

The emergence of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has reshaped higher education with both promising opportunities and significant challenges. Yet little is known about how global educational policies are evolving to address the assessment challenges posed by GenAI in terms of 'ethical considerations.' Additionally, current research has…

In this study, we investigated the impact of collaborative learning practices on the academic success of first generation college (FGC) students in one section of a general chemistry course. We implemented group problem solving and group quizzes during the lecture sessions of General Chemistry 1. Our focus was on understanding how FGC students…

The purpose of this article is to investigate how 5G and wireless communication technologies (5G+WCT) might be applied to English language classroom programs in higher education. The paper describes the complimentary roles of 5G and wireless communication technologies in English language teaching, includes student data collecting and…

By using modern data analysis techniques, this study aims to construct an innovative university English teaching effectiveness evaluation model based on particle swarm algorithm and support vector machine. The model is designed to improve assessment accuracy and personalization. The research process includes the methodology of data collection,…

Online learning is one form of distance education mediated through information and communications technology. We used a descriptive research design to develop and validate a multidimensional instrument to assess readiness and motivations for online learning. We provided a theoretical framework to better understand the concept of readiness for…

In the era of information technology, foreign language teachers should not only master the professional knowledge of foreign languages, but also master the theoretical knowledge and application skills of modern education technology, that is, have certain information literacy. This article studies the strategies to improve the information literacy…

Researchers found dual language programs allow students to acquire a second language while building positive cross-cultural beliefs. However, there are inconsistencies between what research shows and teachers' perceptions of success. The problem was a gap in academic achievement between both English Language Learners (ELL) and non-ELL students…

Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4) aims to "ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all". In relation to Early Childhood Education (ECE), SDG Target 4.2 aims to "ensure that all girls and boys have access to quality early childhood development, care and pre-primary…

Universities are under increasing pressure to equip graduates with a broader set of competencies, such as communication, teamwork and leadership skills, that go beyond subject-specific knowledge. This, alongside growing student numbers in higher education, creates pedagogic challenges, especially with regards to assessment design. Conventional…

With the operationalisation of lockdowns and restrictions on public gatherings, education systems across the entire globe were confronted with an urgent need to reconsider alternative forms of teaching, learning and assessment. Some institutions in developing countries were especially hard-hit by the shift owing to inadequacies in training and…

English for Specific Purposes plays an important role at the tertiary education level. As the event industry is expanding in many countries around the world, including Thailand, study programs which help prepare young people specifically for a career in the event industry are becoming more sought after. An important component of any such program…

Models and modeling are central to both scientific literacy and practices as demonstrated by the Next Generation Science Standards. Through a design-based research framework, we developed a model-based assessment (MBA) and associated rubric as tools for teachers to understand and support students in their conceptualization of the flow of energy…

Conventional advice discourages controlling for postoutcome variables in regression analysis. By contrast, we show that controlling for commonly available postoutcome (i.e., future) values of the treatment variable can help detect, reduce, and even remove omitted variable bias (unobserved confounding). The premise is that the same unobserved…

A significant challenge in studying formative assessment is the lack of suitable instruments for assessing teachers' formative assessment practices. This paper reports the development of the Teacher Formative Assessment Practice Scale (TFAPS) and its psychometric properties based on two samples of primary and secondary school teachers: one from…
