Drawing upon interview data collected from six American professors who have taught in a Sino-US collaborative programme, this study explores these Western educators' perceptions of their Chinese students. Adopting the theoretical lens of cultural non-essentialism, this study finds that these educators formed an appreciative and contextualized…

Higher education stakeholders want students to succeed. Whereas the term student success is easily spoken among these stakeholders, it is more complex to define, measure, and improve. Additionally, the same stakeholders may have different ideas of what student success means and what programs and services best support students toward success. In…

This article introduces a novel method that integrates collaborative filtering into the naive Bayes model to enhance predicting student academic performance. The combined approach leverages collaborative user behavior analysis and probabilistic modeling, showing promising results in improved prediction precision. Collaborative Filtering explores…

Purpose: As part of a larger grant-funded project, a professional development (PD) series was conducted within the framework of a school-university partnership to improve teachers' capacity to meaningfully include fathers and father figures in the school environment, with a particular focus on fathers of children with disabilities.

It employed a quasi-experimental…

Schools are currently facing significant success gaps for students with disabilities, particularly those students with intersectional, marginalized identities. Establishing systematic, collaborative tiered supports is essential to reduce student success gaps and simultaneously prevent staff burnout. Yet, the required system change varies across…

A growing number of educators expect that artificial intelligence (AI) will augment students' capacities and rapidly transform the teaching and learning practice. However, there is a lack of convincing evidence on the effects of Student-AI Collaboration (SAC) on a learning task's performance. A critical examination of the effects on students'…

To cope with an unpredictable future, higher education in mathematics and science (MS) needs to educate a knowledgeable and skilled workforce. Co-operative learning (CL) is a teaching method associated with increased academic achievement and development of generic skills. Thus, the purposes of this scoping review are to assess the evidence base of…

This study introduced computerized collaboration scripts with an intergroup competition mechanism to foster students' within-group collaboration in a multi-touch tabletop classroom, investigating whether the scripting effects could be further improved by integrating intergroup competition. As such, this study utilized an experimental design to…

Our principal objective is to explore if interculturality is relevant for the success of a bilateral student mobility program, Mexico-Japan Technical and Academic Exchange Program (MJTAEP). First, the authors explain their methodology and objectives of field work. Second, they situate their analysis within a framework of growing academic…

Disparities in academic achievement have been well documented between low- and high-socioeconomic status (SES) students in the United States. Studies point to education-related parental involvement as a key factor in academic accomplishments, with higher parental involvement facilitating higher academic achievement. However, current definitions of…
