Educators have been using video feedback (VF) to respond to student writing for several decades. Most qualitative and quantitative research on VF has thoroughly demonstrated that students want more video comments along with written feedback (WF). Despite the research supporting the advantages of VF, very few studies identify the labor and time…

The problem of student dropout in higher education has gained significant attention within the Educational Data Mining research community over the years. Since student dropout is a major concern for the education community and policymakers, many research studies aim to evaluate and uncover profiles of students at-risk of dropping out, allowing…

In this article, we examined predictive validity of the newly defined "Student Risk Screening Scale--Internalizing and Externalizing" (SRSS-IE 9, with nine items) when used by teachers for the first time, with a sample of 24,535 elementary students from 74 schools in four U.S. geographic regions. Results indicated fall externalizing and…

While most research on restraint and seclusion use in K-12 schools focuses on the procedures with students with disabilities, the authors investigate its application to English learners and offer proactive steps for teachers.

Previous literature suggests an associative link between adults' stereotypically Black facial features and assumed criminality. The question addressed here is whether the…

Recent years have brought a rapid growth of scientific output in the area of gamification in education. In this paper, we try to identify its main characteristics using a bibliometric approach. Our preliminary analysis uses Google Scholar, Scopus, and Web of Science as data sources, whereas the main analysis is performed on 2517 records retrieved…

Although studies on school suspensions focus on the disproportionate number of Black students receiving them, policy changes reducing suspensions offer new insights into the racial gap. Using annual school-level data from the Chicago Public Schools (2012-2016), I evaluate how a suspension reduction policy affected the number of students receiving…
