Refugee children often face disruptions to their education before and during displacement. However, little is known about either levels or predictors of refugee children's literacy or about their attitudes toward reading in low- or middle-income countries. To address this, we conducted in-home literacy assessments using the Holistic Assessment of…

The main aim of this research is to study the influence of traditional, online, and hybrid teaching modes on student academic performance. For this purpose, three determinants of perceived satisfaction and academic performance are used to compare student learning outcomes across the different teaching mediums. This is the first study to examine…

Research suggests that English for Specific Purposes (ESP) students in English-as-a-Foreign-Language (EFL) contexts have difficulties understanding the passages in technical English textbooks of various fields of study including computer software engineering.
