Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIED) is a broad and multifarious area of study that spans across various academic fields. Due to the high numbers of studies in this field, it seems too challenging to analyze all of them in depth in a single study. Additionally, there is a lack of research that provides a comprehensive overview of the main…

This opinion article discusses the ethical issues with revealing journal article reviewer credentials through social media and whether these constitute misconduct. It emphasizes the importance of peer review to ensure the quality of research communication, different peer review approaches, and relevance of adhering to ethical standards set forth…

Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) is one of the standard analytical techniques used in EFL studies. It helps researchers to identify hidden constructs and check whether the survey instruments capture learners' beliefs, feelings and attitudes in EFL classrooms. However, many struggle with the application of EFA due to a lack of clear rationale for…

This invited review critically examines the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework and argues for the integration of Affective Knowledge (AK) as a foundational component in technologically mediated pedagogy. Drawing on recent scholarship in emotional and teacher education, the article identifies a persistent gap in how TPACK…

Whilst the importance of research in teacher education is widely emphasised, debates continue about issues of value, legitimacy and contributions to the knowledge base. This paper aims to contribute to these debates by looking at research in, on and for teacher education, by teacher educators. Drawing from 20 interviews of international…

As a result of the increase in online course offerings at colleges and universities, the prevalence of online and computerized examinations has increased over the last two decades. Beyond academia, online examinations have been used to assess competence for certifications by both governments and private firms. Despite this importance, a randomized…

Teaching analytics (TA) is concerned with the use of analytical techniques to the learning-teaching process, the quality of the classroom environment, and the effectiveness of teaching methods used to improve student learning. The purpose of this study is to map (1) distribution of citations and publications by years (2) the most influential…

This article theorises how the concept of "affective imaginaries" can be taken up in higher education research to turn attention to institutional affect. The discussion brings into conversation socio-cultural and affective-political readings of "social imaginaries" to argue that analytical work on affective imaginaries makes it…

Despite calls for open science reforms in special education research, little is known about the perceptions or practices of special education researchers regarding open science. In this study, we modified the Open Science Survey to conduct a preliminary examination of the knowledge, attitudes, perceived norms, and behavioral intent of 155 special…

Within descriptive phenomenology, participants' lived experiences provide data about the studied phenomenon, in this case academic freedom in teacher education in a tension between certainty and uncertainty. The current phenomenon was examined in a phenomenological study about preservice teachers' possibilities to develop critical and autonomous…

In recent decades, calls to foster safe learning environments have proliferated in the educational scholarship related to citizenship. Examples range from demands to keep young citizens safe in the digital world through to calls to hold safe conversations around controversial issues. These invocations of safety, however, have raised little…

During the period (2013-2024), learning engagement has been extensively researched. We reviewed the evolution of university students' engagement in learning over 12 years and explored research hotspots and trends for sustainable development. We applied a bibliometric analysis to visualize and analyze 1,231 articles on the topic of university…

This study adopts bibliometric analysis to examine the development of teacher agency studies from 1995 to 2023. A total of 346 publications were retrieved from the Social Science Citation Index and Arts & Humanities Citation Index and analyzed using VOSviewer software. The results indicate that research on teacher agency has undergone three…

This paper explores the potential of abductive reasoning to enhance the analysis of international large-scale assessments which have traditionally relied on deductive and inductive reasoning. While these conventional methods have provided valuable insights into global student achievement, they often fail to capture the complexity of educational…

Western knowledge systems are increasingly scrutinised for their colonial roots and their dominance over Indigenous perspectives. In response, Indigenous, First Nations, and Pacific scholars are actively challenging these colonial epistemologies in higher education through research and community engagement, carving out spaces that honour and…
