E-learning is the process of sharing knowledge out of the traditional classrooms through different online tools using internet. The availability and use of these tools are not easy for every student. Many institutions gather e-learning feedback to know the problems of students to improve their systems. In e-learning systems, typically a high…

This paper explores using data mining in English teaching assessment in higher education within the 'Internet + Education' era. Traditional assessment methods struggle to meet modern teaching needs. By collecting diverse data like student performance and learning behavior, and employing data mining, a comprehensive assessment model is built. This…

Objective: Cognitive atypicalities are prevalent in autism. This prevalence has exhorted researchers to look for developing the most appropriate evaluation tools, which enable them to study cognitive functions in autism accurately and efficiently. Drawing tasks, due to their numerous advantages, are known as promising tools for examining cognitive…

The research objectives were: (1) to study the current situation of the comprehensive quality evaluation system for higher vocational college students, (2) to develop the strategies for improving the comprehensive quality evaluation system for higher vocational college students, (3) to evaluate the feasibility of the strategies for improving the…

This study aims to explore university students' perception regarding an e-assessment system in terms of preference, assessment management, and the quality assurance process. A cross-sectional online survey was employed among 384 students of Nepal Open University (NOU). Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used in the research. Findings indicate…

Causal mediation analysis is a popular approach for investigating whether the effect of an exposure on an outcome is through a mediator to better understand the underlying causal mechanism. In recent literature, mediation analysis with multiple mediators has been proposed for continuous and dichotomous outcomes. In contrast, methods for mediation…

The study of infant gaze has long been a key tool for understanding the developing mind. However, labor-intensive data collection and processing limit the speed at which this understanding can be advanced. Here, we demonstrate an asynchronous workflow for conducting violation-of-expectation (VoE) experiments, which is fully "hands-off"…

This study examined the relationship between pre-service teachers' epistemological views and their assessment conceptions, as well as how epistemological beliefs and their components contribute to the variation in their assessment conceptions. Utilizing a quantitative descriptive correlational research design, data were collected from 197…

In this paper we report our development of instruments to measure Big Ideas in school mathematics. In tackling the issue of assessment fatigue among students, we present an aggregated approach to measure students' knowledge of Big Ideas.

The aim of the present study is to investigate how the concept of systematic quality work is perceived by school teachers. Eleven interviews were conducted and analysed according to the phenomenographical method, inspired by qualitative content analysis. Five qualitatively different descriptive categories were identified: (i) tools for…

As universities around the world have begun to use learning management systems (LMSs), more learning data have become available to gain deeper insights into students' learning processes and make data-driven decisions to improve student learning. With the availability of rich data extracted from the LMS, researchers have turned much of their…

In the literature of modern psychometric modeling, mostly related to item response theory (IRT), the fit of model is evaluated through known indices, such as X[superscript 2], M2, and root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) for absolute assessments as well as Akaike information criterion (AIC), consistent AIC (CAIC), and Bayesian…

Child well-being is regarded as an important part of early childhood education but little is known about the meaning of well-being and how it is operationalised in a curriculum context. The paper examines how practitioners in Wales assess the well-being of 3- to 7-year-olds. The case study involves two schools and the paper discusses findings from…

In this study of 211 teacher work samples derived from a professional development programme, teachers' conceptualisations of student inquiry were revealed by examining the nature of perceived outcomes and the role of critical thinking that animated teachers' student inquiries collected over nine years. Using a schema adapted from the literature,…

Background: Social network awareness (SNA) enables students to know the online learning context of peers in computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) and it has been used to improve peer interaction and participation in collaborative learning tasks. Mobile learning enables students to access learning content and discuss content with peers…
