Every child has the right to learn. Yet for far too many, that right remains unfulfilled. Poverty, environmental shocks, conflict, displacement, disability and discrimination continue to keep children out of school or stuck in classrooms without meaningful learning, or disrupt learning altogether. This is especially true for girls and other…

During the COVID-19 pandemic period, preschool teachers experienced a hard time in which they were required to implement relevant epidemic prevention policies to ensure the health of young children, increasing their work engagement, work stress, and turnover intention.

Increased public investment in PhD education to drive innovation has led to a recent rapid growth in the number of PhD graduates. Academic labour markets have not developed at the same pace.

Data mining in education predictions are made about other groups based on the big data of education. However, the extent to which training data can be accessed is relative.
