Simulation-based learning provides students with unique opportunities to develop key procedural and teamwork skills in close-to-authentic physical learning and training environments. Yet, assessing students' performance in such situations can be challenging and mentally exhausting for teachers. Multimodal learning analytics can support the…

Recommender systems have been actively used in many areas like e-commerce, movie and video suggestions, and have proven to be highly useful for its users. But the use of recommender systems in online learning platforms is often underrated and less likely used. But many of the times it lacks personalisation especially in collaborative approach…

Scholar-practitioner doctoral students face a unique set of challenges and developmental milestones throughout their doctoral programs, calling for specialized support. Mentoring is one such support that provides academic, career, and psychosocial support to students throughout their doctoral journey. In this study, we implemented an innovative…

We developed "metadta," a flexible, robust, and user-friendly statistical procedure that fuses established and innovative statistical methods for meta-analysis, meta-regression, and network meta-analysis of diagnostic test accuracy studies in Stata. Using data from published meta-analyses, we validate "metadta" by comparing and…

Component network meta-analysis (CNMA) compares treatments comprising multiple components and estimates the effects of individual components. For network meta-analysis, a standard network plot with nodes for treatments and edges for direct comparisons between treatments is drawn to visualize the evidence structure and the connections between…

The boundaries of higher education organizations (HEOs) are becoming increasingly porous both in the USA and globally. Research has shown that individuals within universities (e.g., trustees and faculty) can serve as boundary spanners who connect universities to their external environments. However, our knowledge of how individuals span HEO…

Research has shown that networking skills contribute to higher compensation and greater levels of job satisfaction. Much of the extent research demonstrates that networking skills are a necessity in today's business environment. At the same time, many professionals express an extreme dislike for networking and for Gen Z this appears to be a source…

This study examines the relationships between university graduates' HEXACO traits and networking behavior for finding a job through job search network size. We integrate individual difference theory and social network theory to explain these links in two manners. We use individual difference theory to demonstrate that graduates with HEXACO…

Education governance is shifting towards more individually and personally tailored governance, to pre-empt futures to manage the present. Managing the present requires the fabrication of a specific type of future-oriented learning human kinds. Economically driven imperatives, strengthening transnational stakeholder networks and advances in the…

In the wake of the focus on improving the quality of education in the international community, the development of the cause of education in mainland China has entered the stage of high-quality development. Currently, the construction of internal governance structures for primary and secondary schools in mainland China exhibits three areas of…

Understanding complex systems is important in science and has become a prominent aspect of STEM education in recent years. System thinking plays a critical role, focusing on system attributes such as interactions between components, emerging phenomena and hierarchical organisation. In this study, we provide a network analysis of bibliometric…

School effectiveness research has received considerable attention for over half a century, resulting in abundant literature. However, there is a gap in the literature in terms of presenting this knowledge base through a bibliometric analysis. To fill this gap, the current study examines the articles on school effectiveness published in journals…

The purpose of this paper is to examine how social media influences the decision-making processes of high school principals. Specifically, this study will focus on principals' use of community and stakeholder social media content as data in the information collection step of the decision-making process. The study will evaluate the principals'…

Learning to use improvement science -- a structured process for planning, implementing, and studying change efforts -- takes time. That time is a worthwhile investment for schools aiming to shift teaching and learning, but it can be a barrier in schools that are often beset by leadership turnover. How can schools, and external partners, address…

We present a neural network model of referent identification in a visual world task. Inputs are visual representations of item pairs unfolding with sequences of phonemes identifying the target item. The model is trained to output the semantic representation of the target and to suppress the distractor. The training set uses a 200-word lexicon…
