Graph Signal Processing (GSP) plays a crucial role in addressing the growing need for information processing across networks, especially in tasks like supervised classification. However, the success of GSP in such tasks hinges on accurately identifying the underlying relational structures, which are often not readily available and must be inferred…

The integration of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in educational centers has become an imperative need to prepare new generations with the necessary competencies to respond to new global challenges. Schools, as educators, have a responsibility to foster education that promotes sustainable development, ensuring that new generations adopt…

This book covers the construction of international education research community in the 1950s-1990s, and the growth of its 'disembedded' laboratory i.e. networks, spaces, materiality, travelling, translations. The book follows a sociology of science theoretical framework in order to examine the research-archive of the Swedish internationally…

Reweighting a distribution to minimize a distance to a target distribution is a powerful and flexible strategy for estimating a wide range of causal effects, but can be challenging in practice because optimal weights typically depend on knowledge of the underlying data generating process. In this paper, we focus on design-based weights, which do…

People with intellectual disability use social media; however, there are barriers preventing them from using and benefiting from social media to the same extent as others. Some barriers include lack of knowledge, limited skills and inaccessibility. This pilot study used a sequential mixed method design to explore the outcomes of a social media…

The trend of podcast and audiobook listening is on the rise, thus paving the way for a new, popular learning environment. It is crucial to deliberate on the influence of multiple-text listening comprehension. This research aimed to explore the impact of conceptual network processing on multiple-text comprehension performance from the perspective…

SDG4 calls for ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education while promoting lifelong learning opportunities for everyone. To achieve this, there's a need to advance digital education to support personalized and lifelong learning by broadening access to high-quality educational resources. Higher education models are continually evolving to…

Research attention to investigating elementary STEM teachers' Professional Learning Networks (PLNs) has grown. However, what types of Open Educational Resources (OER) and Technological, Pedagogical, and Content Knowledge (TPACK) elementary STEM teachers share in their PLNs are still under-examined. This case study aims to explore elementary STEM…

This study shares findings from a review of eight science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) teacher leader programs across the United States. With limited empirical research in STEM teacher leadership, the goal of the study is to build the research knowledge about STEM teacher leader conceptualization and structure. Results from…

Objective: This study analyzes pandemic-era diminished mental health and social connections among college students.

This research investigates how tertiary students' views on social networks for learning purposes relate to their emotional reactions and their level of academic involvement in technology-supported learning environments. A total of 890 Iranian EFL (English as a Foreign Language) students from five provinces (Esfahan, Tehran, Markazi, Shiraz,…

This bibliometric study examines the evolving research landscape on teachers' roles in AI-enhanced education from 2020 to 2024. Using the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, we analyzed 54 relevant publications using VOSviewer and Scimago Graphica tools. The study reveals a significant publication surge, peaking at 25 in 2023, indicating growing academic…

The concept of "collective contributions to career efficacy" (CCCE) has been long proposed to conceptualize the effects of influences from various significant others on individuals' career efficacy and development. However, the longitudinal and dynamic implications of CCCE for individuals' career development, especially the relative…

The complex processes of collaborative knowledge construction require a multimodal approach to capture the interplay between learners, tools, and the environment. While existing studies have recognized the importance of considering multiple modalities, there remains a need for a comprehensive framework that explicitly models the dynamics of…

Interagency collaboration (IAC) is mandated by U.S. federal legislation and is a well-established best practice in the transition literature. At the same time, there is limited research that examines the predictors of greater IAC, and the breadth of partners that secondary special educators collaborate with across school systems, service systems,…
