We sought to extend knowledge about the unique roles of these two personal resources by examining them simultaneously as predictors of teachers' work-related outcomes. We also examined how two…

This article uses digital traces to help identify students' online learning strategies by making a clear distinction between the descriptive features (the proportional distribution of students' different online learning actions) and quantitative aspects (the total number of the online learning sessions), a distinction that has not been properly…
