The present work aims to explore the knowledge that the students of the Master's Degree in Teaching at the University of La Laguna have about the functions of educational guidance and their role as teachers and tutors. To this end, this paper presents a review of the role of educational guidance in a Secondary Education center and the role of the…

Many adolescents need additional support during the early years of high school to develop their reading skills, but secondary teachers often have few options available that meet the unique literacy needs of this population. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to design and investigate an innovative approach to help adolescent readers with a…

From an early age, we engage in building our narrative language through social interactions. These narrative language skills influence academic success. Many educational establishments focus solely on academic achievement. A focus on supporting emotional intelligence that can support narrative language development is imperative. In this…

Background/Context: Future Forward (FF) is an early elementary literacy program, administered by Education Analytics (EA), that combines one-on-one tutoring with parent engagement to promote student literacy development both at school and at home. In 2011 FF was funded by an i3 grant to develop the program and test its impact in Milwaukee. Two…

Expressing thoughts and feelings efficiently is fundamental in daily, academic, and professional life. Accordingly, self-efficacy beliefs play pivotal roles in shaping learners' speaking performance through various dimensions. Higher education institutions assume responsibility for boosting students' speaking self-efficacy, thereby contributing to…

AI revolutionizes education and transforms learning strategies catered to students' personal needs. Through adaptive learning algorithms and intelligent tutoring systems, AI enhances the educational experience by customizing content and increasing the speed at which each student can learn based on their individual strengths and challenges. This…

Large language models (LLMs) offer an opportunity to make large-scale changes to educational content that would otherwise be too costly to implement. The work here highlights how LLMs (in particular GPT-4) can be prompted to revise educational math content ready for large scale deployment in real-world learning environments. We tested the ability…

Writing proficiency is a global educational challenge, particularly in diverse student populations. This study examined the effectiveness of a multi-component intervention based on the Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD) framework, incorporating graphic organizers, storytelling, and positive reinforcement. Peer tutoring was later integrated…

A growing literature suggests the combination of financial aid, academic support and student advising may be needed to ensure that students, especially low-income students, not only enroll in college but obtain a degree. Established at CUNY in 1965, the Search for Education, Elevation, and Knowledge (SEEK) program is a legislatively mandated…

Ubiquitous Learning Environment (ULE) has been becoming a mobile and sensor based technology equipped environment that suits the modern world education discipline requirements for the past few years. Ambient Intelligence (AmI) makes much smarter the ULE by the support of optimization and intelligent techniques. Various efforts have been so far…

Private tutoring has, over the past decades, been a key educational phenomenon for Thai college-bound students, having received both praise and condemnation. This qualitative case study shows that private English tutoring in Thailand has expanded beyond the 'shadow education' discussed by Bray (1999). Five tutor-student pairs were interviewed via…

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of algebraic equation solving intervention for sixth graders with mathematics learning difficulties (MD). A total of 48 students with MD were randomly assigned to either the algebraic equation solving intervention, "Mystery Math" (n = 24) or control condition (n = 24). The…

With the development of a technology-supported environment, it is plausible to provide rich process-oriented feedback in a timely manner. In this paper, we developed a learning analytics dashboard (LAD) based on process-oriented feedback in iTutor to offer learners their final scores, sub-scale reports, and corresponding suggestions on further…

This study explored the effectiveness of an adaptive web-based learning tutorial designed to teach three modules of a college level introductory statistics course. Specifically, the impact of the tutorial on student knowledge, motivation, and study time was examined. One hundred thirty four college students were randomly assigned to study from…

Adaptive learning is an educational method that uses computer algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI) to customize learning materials and activities based on each user's model. Adaptive learning has been used for more than 20 years. However, it is still unique, and no other system could bring more or even similar capabilities than the ones…
