Previous studies have found a negative effect on average student performance on standardised tests following the COVID-19 crisis. However, the effects might differ depending on the student's position in the achievement distribution. Understanding distributional effects allows us to determine how to better direct resources to students most…

While multimodal glossing is supported by theories like Mayer's Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning, its effectiveness remains debated due to potential cognitive demands. This study examined how repeated exposures, working memory (WM), and gloss lookup behaviors influence vocabulary retention. Ninety-six Chinese high school students were…

The integration of technology in education has reshaped teaching methodologies, particularly in language instruction. This mixed-methods explanatory sequential research investigated the TPACK cognitions and practices of nine Filipino high school teachers of Mandarin. The TPACK is a framework that illustrates the importance of the interplay between…

Research on newcomers' language and literacy (L&L) skills has expanded recently in response to the growth of this population. To inform teachers and researchers, this paper reviewed 41 empirical studies (2010-2022) on high-school newcomers' L&L. Most studies used qualitative methods, working with few participants for short time periods.…

In a society where individuals can control their own destiny, socioeconomic origins would have little bearing on educational outcomes or earnings prospects. This ideal has driven the work of generations of Illinois educators, activists, policymakers, and employers, and it animates current statewide efforts to provide equal opportunities and…

Background/purpose: Women remain underrepresented in STEM, particularly in higher education, where cultural and structural barriers persist. In Mexico, women make up less than 30% of students in engineering and technology programs, highlighting a persistent gender gap. This study investigates whether gender-focused mentoring, specifically female…

Background/purpose: Students' creativity and awareness must be developed to overcome environmental problems through effective learning methods. This study examines the effect of experiential learning models combined with e-river worksheets on students' creativity and environmental awareness. Materials/methods: The research method employed is a…

Incidental vocabulary learning through reading may be influenced by a range of learner-internal as well as learner-external factors. This study, specifically, examined the potential impacts of three factors: text type, prior L2 vocabulary knowledge, and working memory capacity. Forty-six 1st grade high school students in Korea completed a battery…

"Getting Prepared" fulfills the legislative mandate (Minnesota Statute 13.32, subdivisions 3 and 6) to provide summary information about Minnesota public high school graduates who enrolled in developmental courses at Minnesota postsecondary institutions (that offer developmental education coursework) within two years of high school…

Every year, the Student Transitions Project (STP) collects post-secondary enrolment and credential completion data from the twenty-five British Columbia (B.C.) public post-secondary institutions and links this data to secondary school enrolment information via encrypted personal education numbers (PENs).

For at-risk diverse students who score lower points on district/state/federal testing as well as on other standardized tests such as the SAT, (formerly known as the Scholastic Assessment Test), these students are gatekept out of higher-level courses in high school due to "teaching to the test" policies, gatekept out of entrance to…

Integrating the STEM method within the Education 5.0 framework can markedly improve 21st-century skills in high school pupils by unifying science, technology, engineering, and mathematics into a comprehensive learning plan. This study systematically reviews how STEM education within Education 5.0 frameworks specifically improves digital literacy,…

Low enrolment of students in the science stream after completion of high school in the state of Mizoram and prevalence of science-related anxieties within them is a matter of concern and rationalises the present study to assess the basic science process skills of high school students. It is advocated in many past studies that a good understanding…
