The tremendous growth of educational institutions' electronic data provides the opportunity to extract information that can be used to predict students' overall success, predict students' dropout rate, evaluate the performance of teachers and instructors, improve the learning material according to students' needs, and much more. This paper aims to…

At the molecular level, chemical processes involve the rearrangement of atoms in space and time. Students often struggle with visualizing the 3D spatial characteristics of molecules and transition states, as well as recognizing the dynamic nature of chemistry. Both visual spatial skills and representational competence should be explicitly trained…

This quantitative study sought to determine the efficacy and mindset perceptions of current school leaders and teachers within public high schools. This study highlighted a discrepancy in efficacy and mindset among educators for each other. Firstly, school leaders feel they make a difference, but teachers do not hold the same level of belief in…

Purpose: The goal of this study was to experimentally evaluate how compensating for the adverse acoustic effects of a posterior glottal opening (PGO) by increasing subglottal pressure and changing supraglottal compression, as have been associated with vocal hyperfunction, influences the risk of vocal fold (VF) trauma. Method: A self-oscillating…

Purpose: The goal is to assess performance prediction systems (PPS) that are used to assist at-risk learners. Design/methodology/approach: The authors propose time-dependent metrics including earliness and stability. The authors investigate the relationships between the various temporal metrics and the precision metrics in order to identify the…

This study aims at identifying the effect of pre-service teachers' 21st century learner skills and metacognitive awareness on their early teacher identity. Employing a correlational design, the study collected data from 523 pre-service teachers studying at AfyonKocatepe University, Turkey, in the 2020-2021 academic year. The instruments used in…

This study fit a Naïve Bayesian classifier to the words of exam items to predict the Bloom's taxonomy level of the items. We addressed five research questions, showing that reasonably good prediction of Bloom's level was possible, but accuracy varies across levels. In our study, performance for Level 2 was poor (Level 2 items were misclassified…

Massively open online courses (MOOCs) offer learners opportunities for self-improvement and knowledge development. Linking cognitive processes and learning outcomes is helpful in supporting students learning with the help of MOOCs. Based on the cognitive presence of the Community of Inquiry framework, this study quantified the effect of cognitive…

To date, many AI initiatives (eg, AI4K12, CS for All) developed standards and frameworks as guidance for educators to create accessible and engaging Artificial Intelligence (AI) learning experiences for K-12 students. These efforts revealed a significant need to prepare youth to gain a fundamental understanding of how intelligence is created,…

The objectives of this study are to study the relation of futuristic thinking and to create the prediction equation of the 9th graders' relation of futuristic thinking. The subjects of this study are 860, 9th graders, studying in their second term in 2019 in Srisaket province, Thailand. The sujects of this study are from 12 schools from…

Purpose: A dual-task paradigm was implemented to investigate how noise type and sentence context may interact with age and hearing loss to impact word recall during speech recognition. Method: Three noise types with varying degrees of temporal/spectrotemporal modulation were used: speech-shaped noise, speech-modulated noise, and three-talker…

In the 21st century, individuals are expected to be scientifically literate and develop themselves in this direction. However, wrong judgments about self-competence, such as overconfidence, can cause mistakes in the process of solving problems related to science and technology and prevent making the right decisions. This situation, known as the…

The present study investigates students' profiles taking into account of learning approaches and emotional variables along with the pace of study. The sample consists of 406 social science students (34.1% first-year, 27.6% second-year, 16.7% third-year and 21.6% are fourth-year students). They completed: (a) the Approaches to Learning and Studying…

In the last decade education has experienced a shift from privatization to commercialization. This paper argues that the commercialization of education has evolved more recently as a result of artificially intelligent corporate players, enabling forms of insights sales called 'Dark Advertising'. It unpacks how Dark Advertising are profiting from…

In this article, we provide an approach to solve the problem of academic specialty selection in higher educational institutions with Ukrainian entrants as our target audience. This concern affects operations at universities or other academic institutions, the labor market, and the availability of in-demand professionals. We propose a…
