The present study examined the employment landscape for 129 U.S. autistic young adults. Data were collected over multiple waves including high school and early adulthood. Parents participated in interviews and responded to questions regarding young adult employment outcomes, on-the-job supports, job match, and overall job satisfaction. The…

Early math experiences predict children's later math abilities and beliefs. However, less is known about longer-term associations between early childhood math experiences and adult math outcomes. The present study examined emerging adults' earliest memories of mathematics and reading experiences, asking whether characteristics of their early…

Transdisciplinary invention projects based on traditional and digital fabrication technologies engage young people in designing and making complex artifacts and constitute a central aspect of future-oriented education. In Finland, comprehensive school students (aged 7-15) from all over the country can practice their inventive skills in the annual…

In professional education, cultivating students' abilities in communication, cooperation, reflection, and problem solving is a crucial objective. Taking nursing student training as an example, cooperative learning involves collectively discussing the evaluation and management of first aid cases. This aims to help students comprehend their roles…

In this study, we developed an online problem-based learning (PBL) module for the Impulsive Force subtopic of Physics Form Four and studied its perceived usability among Physics trainee teachers. The research design of this study is developmental research and a quantitative study using a survey approach. The module was developed according to five…

This study sets out to explore how trainee teachers engage with each other in an initial synchronous virtual exchange task. We adopt Gijsen's (2021) task engagement parameter of partner orientation in combination with multimodal (inter)action analysis (Norris, 2004) to investigate how different verbal and coverbal modes contribute to establishing…

This mixed-method study explores the motivational mindsets towards the learning of LOTEs of two groups of Italian preadolescents (aged 10-14) after Romance Intercomprehension (RIC) training in a school context. Reference is made to the notions of self-efficacy, the extrinsic/intrinsic spectrum and the emergence of a desired plurilingual identity.…

This article proposes that work-integrated learning (WIL) is a Landscape of Practice (LoP) within the wider higher education ecosystem. It applies concepts from the LoP literature to present a new perspective on WIL programs and ecosystems. It further emphasizes that students are central within the WIL LoP, developing knowledge as they traverse…

Background/purpose: This study aimed to develop and validate a causal model of factors influencing the mathematical reasoning ability of Grade 6 students in Thailand. Materials/methods: The sample consisted of 530 students selected through multi-stage random sampling. Research instruments included a basic mathematics knowledge test, a mathematical…

When a campus welcomes hundreds--and more likely thousands--of new students to campus each year, it is easy for those on the front lines to lose sight of how radical and novel this change is for our students. Many students experience significant transitions before college as they navigate identity formation and grapple with unforeseen disruptions…

Achieving meaningful educational outcomes requires scalable strategies for mastering mathematical concepts and skills, with student engagement at the core. This paper examines the use of comprehensive, technology-enhanced activities designed to promote active learning and deeper conceptual understanding. Specifically, it focuses on the integration…

To address student concerns about full tuition rates while taking online courses during COVID-19, we conducted choice experiments at a representative U.S. land-grant university to elicit students' willingness-to-pay for alternative course delivery modes. Results show that students demanded 30% and 7% tuition discounts for fully online and hybrid…

In this study, a traditional practice was adapted to the online environment by considering the digital transformation in reading instruction. The study discusses technology as a new learning environment rather than regarding it merely as a scaffold. The paired reading strategy, which is an effective method for improving reading skills and which…

Society is currently experiencing a wave of misinformation and disinformation spread through social media and other means. Widespread false information threatens our social relationships and our democracy. A shift toward inquiry learning in PreK-12 education can both improve student learning in general and teach students to assess the validity of…

This article explores inquiry-based learning (IBL) pedagogy, particularly in mathematics education, examining how it differs from problem-based learning (PBL) and case-based learning (CBL). IBL is defined as a student-centered approach involving sequenced problems or tasks that build engagement and understanding through group work. While IBL, PBL,…
