Background: Previous research shows that Multicultural Psychology courses can produce significant improvements in students' cultural competence-related attitudes in in-person and online courses. Objective: We evaluated the impact of adding a skills-focused group assignment (i.e., Difficult Dialogues) to an online asynchronous Multicultural…

The emergence of wearable technologies, including smartwatches, has received a considerable attention from scholars across several sectors. However, there is a scarcity of knowledge regarding the determinants affecting the adoption of these wearables in education. Therefore, this research aims to propose a theoretical research model through the…

The question of grouping students into homogeneous and heterogeneous groups is not new, but it does not find an unambiguous answer in the literature, especially in mathematics. In this paper, we address the question of whether grouping students into homogeneous and heterogeneous groups in mathematics improves their knowledge. The quasi-experiment…

The present study, based on data concerning 2328 immigrant children attending a representative sample of 561 schools, investigates the impact of various group, family and individual characteristics as well as proficiency in the national language on acceptance and friendship among classmates, while controlling for measurement errors by means of a…

Set within a theatrical unfolding of global youth climate movements, this paper explores the role of digital media in staging new possibilities for climate change education and activism. We engage Deleuze's method of dramatisation to theorise how young people are using digital platforms to perform climate activism and construct new political…

School psychologists play a critical role in the provision of functional, student-centered, and data-driven behavioral assessments and intervention. However, research examining their procedural knowledge and comfort conducting these assessments is minimal. In this manuscript, we will review the results of a mixed method study indicating that…

Decades of educational research have demonstrated that students are most likely to be successful when instruction is explicit and engaging and provides students with multiple opportunities to practice with teacher feedback. To be explicit means more than simply telling students what to do. It is the teacher's responsibility to help the student…

This study investigates how individual-level factors contribute to classroom engagement variations of boys and girls across the elementary school years. Classroom engagement was assessed four times between the ages of 7 and 12 years in a large, representative population-based sample (N = 877) using latent growth modeling. Predictors included the…

How does a world of rival victimhoods disrupt our understandings of the educational subject? In which ways do competing claims of victimhood and their connections with justice have an impact on everyday educational practices? These questions are at the heart of this essay. The analysis conceptualizes the affective logic of victimhood as a terrain…

Routines play a major role in educational change in schools. But what happens if the routines performed by school staff fail to deal successfully with current challenges? What strategies aid adaptation of the routines in a specific situation? Up to now, there exists no comprehensive concept for understanding why and at what points the adapting of…

In the United States, the Next Generation Science Standards advocate for the integration of computational thinking (CT) as a science and engineering practice. Additionally, there is agreement among some educational researchers that increasing opportunities for engaging in computational thinking can lend authenticity to classroom activities. This…

The purpose of the study was to investigate teachers' use of open-ended questions in classrooms. The study was conducted by using a mixed-methods design. The quantitative and qualitative parts of the study were carried out with 212 teachers and 65 teachers, respectively. A scaling form developed by using the rank-order scaling method was employed…

Challenging behaviour is a problematic issue for students with intellectual disability, including those in special education settings. While there is a need to address challenging behaviour in these schools, most Vietnamese classroom teachers struggle to deal with those behaviours due to their lack of effective strategies. In response, this first…

Workplace bullying among school nurses is a significant problem with supervisors either contributing to or preventing such behavior. This study aimed to determine if support from nursing and school supervisors is associated with workplace bullying among Virginia school nurses. In this analysis of a cross-sectional survey, responses from 159 school…

Understanding how students self-regulate their learning experiences has been at the forefront of many empirical and theoretical advances in both cognitive and educational psychology. Yet, these two fields have traditionally investigated this multifaceted aspect of learning using different approaches, resulting in scientific knowledge that is…
