Young children born preterm may be more affected by environmental influences than their full-term peers. Few studies have investigated whether such effects exist for older children and young adolescents. With participants aged 9 and 13 years, we examine whether children born preterm could be differentially affected by the quality of their…

The article is structured into five parts. The first part explains the concept of education in emergencies (EiE) and highlights the challenge of applying it in countries with a fragile education system, particularly in Africa. The second part emphasizes the humanitarian foundation of EiE and recognizes the efforts of international organizations…

This study explores the influence of gender on the psychosocial outcomes and descriptions of gender-related influences on…

This paper explores the implications for higher education of the emergence of new industries, driven by technological changes. The pace of technology-driven changes creates significant challenges for the alignment between the skill needs of industry and provision by higher education. Drawing on concepts from neo-correspondence theory, we examine…

Early childhood educators have a high risk of burnout, leading to a high turnover rate and, potentially, poor educational outcomes for young children. In this systematic review, we investigate the causes of burnout, and the effectiveness of interventions that seek to reduce burnout among educators. We searched "Web of Science" and…
