In public schools in the United States, the work of an ESOL student teacher is characterized by relationships with multiple mentors, including a university supervisor. Through retrospective narrative accounts, this study examines what currently practicing teachers of multilingual learners retained of their supervisors' feedback from their student…

Assessment feedback is an essential way to promote student learning. Students and teachers may benefit from educational technologies during the feedback process. The purpose of this study was to identify the feedback dimensions that were fulfilled by iPad applications (apps) and to compare teacher practice to the affordances of apps. Typological…

Since Brown and Kulik (1977) coined the term 'Flashbulb memories' (FBMs), there are still heated debates about their nature. We thus considered it useful to take stock of almost 50 years of research by reviewing 57 test-retest studies on FBMs for public events. The review aimed to answer six research questions by examining the target events and…

This study examines how Black graduate women respond to gendered-racial microaggressions at a historically White institution. Using Critical Race Theory and Critical Race Feminism, this study also explores the social and psychological factors that contribute to their responses. Data suggest that participants' responses are influenced by stereotype…

A significant and somewhat under-exploited aspect of feedback literacy research lies in students' feedback-seeking behaviors. This research charts progress in oral feedback seeking by means of a three-year longitudinal inquiry focused on the feedback literacy development of an undergraduate co-author. The study is framed through sociocultural…

Background: Children and adolescents with intellectual disabilities commonly experience emotion regulation difficulties. To better understand emotion regulation in this population, the views of their teachers were considered. Methods: Twenty-nine teachers participated in two focus groups. This study utilized qualitative methods to determine if the…

This study aimed to examine pre-service physical education teachers' (PPETs) subjective theories of assessment as they formed prior to the professional training of assessment during PETE. Using a phenomenological approach, 11 PPETs were interviewed. Data were analyzed in Nvivo 12. Findings revealed that (a) PPETs understood assessment as data…

Music learning can invoke moments of vulnerability. Vulnerability is a key component of coherent self-concept development in adolescence, which is crucial not only for learning, but also for positive, long-term mental health outcomes in adulthood. Utilizing a lens of psychological development, we consider the relationship between the vulnerability…

For middle-school math students, interactive question-answering (QA) with tutors is an effective way to learn. The flexibility and emergent capabilities of generative large language models (LLMs) has led to a surge of interest in automating portions of the tutoring process--including interactive QA to support conceptual discussion of mathematical…

The effectiveness of feedback in enhancing learning outcomes is well documented within Educational Data Mining (EDM). Various prior research have explored methodologies to enhance the effectiveness of feedback to students in various ways. Recent developments in Large Language Models (LLMs) have extended their utility in enhancing automated…

This study investigated whether 2- to 6-year-old children exhibit a response bias to questions pertaining to the results of sharing objects that should attract their interest. An experimenter distributed four objects between herself/himself and a child, equally or unequally (more to the child or more to the experimenter) and asked the child yes-no…

In test security analyses, answer copying, collusion, and the use of a shared brain dump site can be detected by checking similarity between item response strings. The similarity, however, can possibly be contaminated by aberrant data resulted from careless responding or rapid guessing. For example, some test-takers may answer by repeating a…

Previous research has shown that increasing the size of incentives can increase response rates for probability-based, cross-sectional surveys. However, the effects of incentives on web panels have not been extensively studied. We sought to answer the question: What is the effect of larger, postpaid incentives on (1) response, (2) data quality, and…

A trigger warning is an early notification of any subject matter which might be considered traumatizing for the audience. It has been particularly common in university lectures and reading lists, and is either issued verbally prior to lectures or presentations, or is part of the syllabus. Trigger warnings have been enormously controversial.…

Teacher accountability and school climate are widely discussed in present-day education. There are many aspects that fold into the constructs of the teacher evaluation process as well as theories that attempt to provide clarity on building and maintaining school climate. The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine the association between…
