This study examined undergraduate students' use of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) for research assignments and its intersection with traditional library databases. Semi-structured interviews with 16 students revealed GAI is primarily used for grammar, summarizing, brainstorming, and locating sources. While students value GAI for…

Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI), such as ChatGPT, is reshaping educational paradigms by offering unparalleled benefits and introducing challenges, particularly academic integrity. This study investigates teaching laboratory practices (traditional, recorded, remote, simulation and virtual), considered an academic safe haven due to its…

With growing research attention in artificial intelligence in education (AIED), there is a profusion of systematic reviews that have investigated AI integration in a wide variety of educational contexts, including PreK-12 schools and higher education. Even though existing systematic reviews have explored effects of AI on education, few studies…

To provide insights into how institutions can scaffold institutional researchers' construction of strong professional identities, we employed a qualitative approach, rooted in the constructivist paradigm, which involved conducting semi-structured interviews with 11 IR professionals regarding how they conceptualized their professional identities.…

Our study explores how US science education has evaluated multilingual students' languages as deficits and/or assets by comparing them against normative ideals. As a raciolinguistic genealogy, the study situates current premises of language in science education (e.g., as problem versus resource) within epistemological practices shaping the field's…

This conceptual paper presents a multidimensional framework for applying affordance theory to language education, moving beyond traditional, linear models. Drawing on ecological and rhizomatic perspectives, the framework views affordances as context-sensitive opportunities for action, shaped and enacted by learners, and analyzed across five key…

Views on the impact of academic research are divided, with some voices advocating for more impact and others calling attention to pathologies of the "impact agenda". One point of interest to most observers is the degree of alignment between academics, who do the research, and university leaders, who control rules and resources relating…

Although the field of autism intervention has strived to identify evidence-based practices, translating these interventions into real-world settings remains a significant challenge. This gap particularly impacts marginalized communities, where access to and quality of services are often inferior. Implementation science addresses these gaps by…

Teacher mental health is a critical yet under-addressed dimension of educational quality and sustainability. While educators are widely recognised as key agents of student wellbeing, their own mental health remains relatively marginalised in research, institutional practices, and policy. This discussion paper highlights the urgent need to rethink…

Engagement with research has long been recognized as a key driver of improved language teaching practices and teachers' professional growth. Yet, language teaching practitioners often remain distanced from research activities, thus perpetuating a well-documented gap between research and practice. While much of the existing scholarship has centered…

The purpose of this project was to conduct a theoretical literature review of the research that has documented examples of teachers' principled resistance to curricular control. Principled resistance occurs when teachers reject curricular policies and programs that control their work and conflict with their professional principles. The authors…

Purpose: Challenges associated with transitioning from graduate to employee are often attributed to a lack of "work readiness". A useful tool to address this issue is a valid and reliable measurement scale for graduate work readiness (GWR), which is the purpose of this study. Design/methodology/approach: Using a mixed-method exploratory…

This study leverages concept-based language instruction (C-BLI) as an innovative pedagogical approach to teaching academic citation practices and broader concepts of intertextuality in academic research writing. Participants were 34 undergraduate students, predominantly multilingual English writers, enrolled in an advanced writing course at a…

The attempts to evaluate the published postgraduate theses aiming to research the Social Studies curriculum in Turkey between the years of 2015-2020. The study adopted general survey model. The study consisted of 866 open access theses which were conducted on the Social Studies curriculum between 2015-2020, and which were obtained from Council of…

This study aims to examine the effects of flipped learning on L2 students' overall academic achievements through meta-analysis. Forty studies (e.g., journal articles, M.A/Ph.D. theses and conference papers) on 'flipped classroom', 'flipped learning' and 'academic achievement' were included in this meta-analysis study. The data was analyzed by…
