Purpose: We sought to identify the constructs and measures used to evaluate the social interaction abilities of young people (12-17 years) with communication disability, drawing from three frameworks: a taxonomy of pediatric cognitive-communication disorders, a taxonomy to describe language assessments of school-aged children, and the framework of…

This study, conducted at a fully online Spanish higher education institution, documents the validation of a bespoke quality assessment tool designed to measure the susceptibility of formative assignments to AI academic misconduct. The research explored the impact of Generative AI (GenAI) technologies in the Humanities. The framework study…

The actions of a teacher are one of the strongest factors influencing students' academic achievement and future life success. However, some of the most common frameworks that are used to evaluate teachers and guide their development or improvement are not based on or informed by research about effective teaching methods. Other frameworks are…

In response to a growing awareness of the oppressive foundations of educational institutions, literacy educators have turned to antiracist, culturally responsive (Alim and Paris; Paris), and equitable teaching and assessment practices to combat the inequities (colonialism, racism, sexism, homophobia, ableism, etc.) on which our institutions are…

The rapid digital transformation of vocational education and training (VET) has underscored the need to adapt traditional assessment methods to digital formats. However, when transitioning to digital modes, it is crucial to consider factors beyond mere technical implementation, particularly the potential impact of altered presentation formats on…

Educational games have gained widespread interest among teachers and researchers across various fields due to their capacity to engage students, foster active participation, and improve learning outcomes. In the context of computer programming, which demands significant cognitive effort, the use of educational games has grown substantially. While…

Four versions of science and history texts were tailored to diverse hypothetical reader profiles (high and low reading skills and domain knowledge), generated by four Large Language Models (i.e., Claude, Llama, ChatGPT, and Gemini). The Natural Language Processing (NLP) technique was applied to examine variations in Large Language Model (LLM) text…

The success of development projects and evaluations hinges on having access to research protocols and methodologies that consider the needs and characteristics of stakeholders, subjects, and context while remaining rigorous and culturally sound. These efforts are often complicated by a dearth of tools that have been tested for validity and…

This scoping review addresses the limited scopes of current research on classroom assessment in university mathematics education (UME). We examine 67 empirical studies (2012-2024) from two crucial but ignored aspects: assessment purposes and theoretical foundations. Our key findings reveal (1) significant geographic disparities reflecting the…

All educators engage in formative assessment; however, to ensure educators are fostering equity in how diverse learners experience learning, the assessment toolkit needs to be expanded. Science education, like all other aspects of society today, has persistent issues of inequity rooted in issues of anti-Blackness, colonialism, and racism; however,…

Evaluation of research performance has significantly increased in importance, particularly in many emerging higher education systems. In Malaysia, the Malaysian Research Assessment (MyRA) was developed to evaluate the research performance of universities and Research Centres of Excellence (RCoEs). This paper reports on a participatory action…

In recent years, online learning has become more and more popular. However, because of information overload, learners often find it difficult to retrieve suitable learning resources. Although many scholars have proposed excellent online learning resource recommendation algorithms, the accuracy of personalized recommendation results still needs to…

This article develops an analytical framework for analysing college (tertiary) statistics textbooks in terms of text accessibility by integrating the text, the reader, and the content into the framework. Five accessibility attributes of science texts were adapted to conceptualize the accessibility of statistics texts. For each accessibility…

Functional assessments, while considered the "gold standard" for behavioral assessments, are not often implemented in school settings due the extensive amount of time, resources, and expertise required. The interview-informed synthesized contingency analysis (IISCA), is a timely, comprehensive, and accurate method for conducting such…

This article focuses on the results of an investigation about the "traffic light" method in kindergarten, which is used as a self-assessment method, a strategy by which the preschoolers evaluate their own progress in achieving the learning objectives, and the teacher obtains an immediate feedback regarding the level of understanding of…
