This study investigates the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) tools on the academic performance of university students with insufficient mathematical preparation enrolled in higher mathematics courses. Utilizing a quasi-experimental design with pre- and post-testing, the research explores the effectiveness of AI-based platforms such as…

Learner autonomy is widely acknowledged as playing a crucial role in successful language learning. However, less is known about how it functions and interacts with other key variables specifically in online settings where its role may potentially be even more significant. This study investigates the role of learner autonomy in learners' experience…

This research moves beyond the conventional students-as-partners discourse to explore student-student partnership practices in higher education, addressing research gaps regarding such partnerships in inter-institutional and non-Western contexts. Through a qualitative study of a student-initiated virtual service-learning project which involved…

To improve postschool outcomes for students with disabilities, research in secondary transition has increasingly aimed to identify in-school experiences that contribute to positive outcomes after high school.

Programmatic assessment (PA) is widely implemented in higher education and is theorised to support self-regulated learning (SRL). However, its mechanisms remain unclear. This study explored students' perceptions of PA's impact on SRL in a part-time, predominantly online Master's programme for healthcare professionals worldwide. A pragmatic…

A key theme in the science education literature concerns the reluctance of students to participate in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). Self-determination theory (SDT) states that social factors in an educational setting, such as teachers' motivating style, can influence students' motivation and engagement. This paper…

The present research investigated personality profiles in early and middle adolescents (N = 168) and compared the emerged profiles by creative ideation, motivational autonomy, and self-efficacy in self-regulation. Cluster analyses revealed three profiles: Resilients, Flexibles, and Averages. The personality types described in the literature were…

In this article, we present the results of a collaborative research venture between Brittany, an art educator of 645 students in a rural K-2 school, and Leslie, an art educator of undergraduate and graduate students. This research began as Brittany's capstone research project in her master's degree program, with Leslie serving as her advisor.…

The "Early Years Learning Framework" promotes the need to recognise children's participation rights and for educators to be responsive to and promote child agency. This study explored how infant and toddler educators understand agency, and what role they ascribe to themselves in infants' and toddlers' realisation of agency. Research was…

The concept of justice that Rawls discussed in his famous book "A Theory of Justice" has had a profound influence on contemporary political and moral philosophy, as well as, to some extent, philosophy of education. Many philosophers of education have applied or criticized Rawls's concepts -- above all the concepts of autonomy, the…

Historically, students have had little influence over the design of education institutions or opportunities (Benner et al., 2019; Lac & Cumings Mansfield, 2018). Decisions about school policies, programs, and structures are primarily steered by administrators, policymakers, and teachers. In recent years, however, educators and policy advocates…

Despite the multiple benefits for Supplemental Instruction (SI) leaders who facilitate study sessions for peers enrolled in high failure rate courses, those employed in large programs frequently become frustrated with their leadership development and position. Additionally, a significant percentage of SI leaders are first-generation, whose…
