This qualitative research study uses middle-grades students' numerical reasoning to model their symbolic representations of the relationship between two multiplicatively related unknowns on an algebra task. Students in sixth grade through ninth grade participated in clinical interviews that assessed their numerical reasoning using the Number…

Mediation analysis is widely applied in various fields of science, such as psychology, epidemiology, and sociology. In practice, many psychological and behavioral phenomena are dynamic, and the corresponding mediation effects are expected to change over time. However, most existing mediation methods assume a static mediation effect over time,…

This study introduces a framework for analyzing opportunities for mathematical reasoning (MR) in school mathematics, using MR-relevant claims and their derivation as the unit of analysis. We contend that this approach can effectively capture a broad range of opportunities for MR across various teaching situations. The framework, rooted in…

In educational gerontology, non-formal education emerges as a possibility for lifelong learning because it is more flexible and less bureaucratic than formal education. In this context, agile culture offers a potential strategy to enhance non-formal education. While there are four manifestos for agile culture in education, their application in…

Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has rapidly evolved to perform complex tasks across diverse domains. Despite its potential to redefine how we work and learn, generative AI's effectiveness hinges on the extent to which it is trusted--by individuals, organizations, and broader societal systems. At the heart of this issue lie three…

Learning analytics promise significant benefit to online education providers through improved, better-targeted student services. Much has been written about the potential of analytics and how they might be technically implemented, and various ethical considerations are published highlighting the significant potential risk of gathering,…

This article aims to utilize an adapted version of Trentham's Inverse Consistency Protocol (ICP) as a way in which any ecclesial organization can act productively when confronted with seemingly controversial paradigms such as social emotional learning (SEL). The ICP can help Christian leaders discern potential areas of inconsistency or affirm…

It is of critical importance to be aware of the historical discrimination embedded in the data and to consider a fairness measure to reduce bias throughout the predictive modeling pipeline. Given various notions of fairness defined in the literature, investigating the correlation and interaction among metrics is vital for addressing unfairness.…

As generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) is seen as a catalyst for a new learning and examination culture in higher education, it urges universities to reinvent themselves and to adapt to these changes effectively. By analysing the content of 67 university guidelines on generative AI, this study investigates how universities in Germany position…

This participatory action research (PAR) dissertation study investigates the implementation of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles by community college faculty in first-year writing courses to support students with learning disabilities at a New Jersey community college. Through a collaborative approach involving faculty as active…

Digital tools can support higher education in being inclusive, so that anyone, regardless of their skills and preferences, may benefit from it, provided that learning modules and materials are designed to be accessible. Digital accessibility is a well-known topic, applied since the late 90s to the World Wide Web, and starting from 2010 to mobile…

The rapid adoption of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in higher education has raised questions about student use, academic integrity, and institutional regulation. This study examines students' perceptions of and compliance with GenAI regulations in higher education, using a Singaporean university as a case study. Adopting a…

Academic citizenship underpins the day-to-day functioning and long-term sustainability of universities, as well as supporting organizational learning, ensuring universities can continue to make a relevant contribution to changing needs in society. It helps strengthen connections between universities and the world beyond academia. The pandemic and…

Background: Children with mild intellectual disabilities in Malaysia often lack structured, tailored sexuality education. Existing national resources are broad and not diagnosis-specific. This study developed and validated sexuality education guidelines and an activity kit for parents of children aged 4-12 years with mild intellectual…
