This research aims to adapt the Kaleidoscope Career Model Scale (KCMS) developed in the USA by Sullivan, Forret, Carraher, and Mainiero into Turkish. For the research, the opinions of 433 teachers and 93 school managers working in Istanbul in the 2020-2021 academic year were consulted. The findings obtained from the analysis studies showed the…

The evaluation of student projects is a difficult task, especially when they involve both a technical and a creative component. We propose an artificial intelligence (AI)-based methodology to help in the evaluation of complex projects in engineering and computer science courses. This methodology is intended to evaluate the assessment process…

In the post-pandemic period, as a result of digitally-surrounded learning environments in higher education institutions (HEIs), some obstacles are observed in learning procedures such as academic procrastination because of poor digital competences. Because of the limited research focusing on specifically digital competences and academic…

Background: Reciprocal relationships exist between motor competencies, physical activity and self-concept. Aims: Using a structural equation model, this study examined whether these relationships also appear in children with intellectual disabilities, how they can be validly measured, and if there are differences between children with and without…

Design science research (DSR) produces knowledge via the design and evaluation of innovative solutions to real-world problems. DSR provides an improved understanding of how and why the solutions work. While DSR is being widely embraced in many research disciplines, its educational pedagogy so far remains immature with little guidance on how best…

In this article, the term teaching artist is reconsidered from a variety of angles. The ways in which the term teaching artist has developed, and the ways it remains nebulous, are explored. In this article, the notion that the teaching artist model presents an extension of the traditional master-apprentice model is presented. Observations are made…

This research aims to examine the effect of birth month on student achievement as well as social and spiritual development in the classroom. We designed this research as a mixed embedded experimental design, one of the mixed research designs. For the experimental group, first-grade students in a primary school in Aziziye District of Erzurum…

This study investigates the associations between students' developmental changes in academic self-efficacy, academic initiative, and grade point average (GPA) during a three-year upper secondary education. The sample consisted of 1453 students aged 16-19 (60.6% girls; baseline mean age = 17.00, SD = 0.91; 56.1% high perceived family wealth; and…

In recent years, discussion of the limitations of the standard cross-lagged panel model (CLPM) has increased, and the random intercept cross-lagged panel model (RI-CLPM) has been proposed as an improved approach to modeling. By now, there are some first applications of the model to investigate reciprocal relations in self-concept development.…

This article makes a case for introducing moving averages into introductory statistics courses and contemporary modeling/data-based courses in college algebra and precalculus. The authors examine a variety of aspects of moving averages and draw parallels between them and similar topics in calculus, differential equations, and linear algebra. The…

Policymakers' solutions to the problem of inequitable access to postsecondary institutions often focus on the financial barriers students face. However, other barriers are just as significant. Students may face barriers in the logistical aspect of applying to college. They may not have the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in college…

In this paper, we share a mentorship model we developed and implemented while collaborating with pre-service teachers (PSTs) on their Model Eliciting Activity projects and the outcomes of the mentorship model in terms of PSTs' growth as teachers as well as researchers. For their projects, PSTs designed and developed their own mathematical modeling…

Research that employs theory provides a framework and structure in which complex phenomenon, can be understood. While many theories have been developed to study people's technology usage, the plurality of perspectives offered are complex to navigate due to the diverse range of problems and topics addressed and the varied theoretical foundations…

Media literacy is a critical component for digital citizenship; however, the nature of this relationship and the role of other mediating variables such as digital literacy in this relationship are not empirically tested in various contexts. This paper examined the effect of media literacy on digital citizenship and tested the mediating role of…

The intersection of modeling and STEM practices offers a promising avenue for creating an integrated STEM curriculum. However, research on designing modeling-based STEM (m-STEM) curricula is limited, particularly concerning how the curriculum affects the learning of students with different spatial abilities. This study developed a four-round…
