Student dropout rates continue to present major difficulties for educational institutions, leading to academic, operational, and financial impacts. Educational Data Mining (EDM) methods, particularly those combining clustering techniques with predict...
Higher education faces an urgent demand to respond to global challenges, yet many responses remain tentative. This urgency has intensified in the early 2020s, a period marked by escalating geopolitical tensions and environmental crises. While educati...
COVID-19 led to substantial changes in early literacy instruction. Although emerging evidence documents its effects on children’s reading achievement, much less is known about how these changes relate to young children’s reading motivatio...
Sociodemographic and socioeconomic factors are key digital divide determinants. This study used a three-level framework to analyze differences in digital access, capability, and outcomes between male and female, urban and rural, and high-family-SES a...
Higher education institutions have been called to step up and contribute towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Much research has been conducted in the areas of sustainable development and responsible management education. H...
Astronomy provides an exceptional context for developing data literacy, critical thinking, and computational skills in education. This paper presents a project-based learning (PBL) framework that integrates exploratory data analysis (EDA), fuzzy logi...
Current calls to integrate science and mathematics in PK-16 education build on decades of prior initiatives, yet the United States still lacks consensus on what integration entails and consistent policies to support it. This study systematically revi...
This systematic review on teachers’ Personalized Continuing Professional Learning (PCPL) frameworks explores integrating core professional competencies with core job-related components. Findings across 43 studies identify effective PCPL framewo...
This narrative review synthesizes conceptual frameworks, empirical evidence, and pedagogical approaches that support the integration of systems thinking into sustainability education across K–12 and higher education. Publications were purposive...
