A Study on Cambodia Pre-service Secondary School Teacher Education with the Perspective of Teacher Professionalism - 이신애 (서울대학교 대학원, 2021)
The purpose of this study is to propose implications for improving Cambodia secondary pre-service teacher education in the view of teacher professionalism. To do so, this study attempts to review the current system and implementation of Cambodia secondary pre-service teacher education and reveal perception of current Cambodia teachers. The survey data in this analysis are from the secondary school teachers in Kampong Chhnang province. Survey, conducted in 2020, provides detailed information on to realistic perception and understanding on effectiveness of pre-service teacher education and teacher professionalism. For analyzing data, descriptive statistics, independent samples t-test, one way ANOVA are performed using SPSS Window 27.0. The research reveals that firstly, teachers have same degree of extrinsic motivation (monetary reward) and intrinsic motivation (interest in subject and teaching). As previous research reveals, in developing nations, extrinsic motivation can promote intrinsic motivation of teachers who are facing poverty. It provides evidence to make ‘motivational synergy’ for increasing motivation of Cambodia teachers. Secondly, respondent teachers perceived level of effectiveness to professional identity is the lowest score. Lastly, teachers who perceive professional teacher as ‘highly respected with social status’ have the highest training need for continuous learning. Thus, policy implications for making teachers feel that they are socially respected and valued with high prestige is positively influencing to teachers’ will of pursuing continuous learning and professional development. Finding suggests three policy implications. First, there needs to be greater need for improving curriculum for teachers’ professional identity. In other words, a focus on technical, competence and knowledge-based teacher professionalism need to be shifted to inner and moral aspect of teacher by developing curriculum and space to allow preservice teachers to shape and reflect on the meaning of teaching, learning and ultimately professional teacher. Secondly, additional one-year (named ‘professional year) is recommended for enhance Cambodia teacher education credibility and extend career choices that preservice teachers have. Lastly guideline reports on teacher education in developing countries need to be published by professional Korean research institutions. It is because, despite of enhanced global standing and expectation of Korean international development, global education cooperation is not professional yet.

Students’ online information use and learning progress in higher education – A critical literature review - Zlatkin-Troitschanskaia, Olga; Hartig, Johannes; Goldhammer, Frank; Krstev, Jan (Studies in Higher Education, 2021)
Learning using the Internet has become a vital factor for academic success in higher education. Students increasingly rely on the Internet as their main information source. However, related research is still an emerging and highly fragmented field. Therefore, this study aims to provide a comprehensive and integrative review of research literature on student learning vis-à-vis using the Internet. The review encompasses research on students' strategies for searching, evaluating, and selecting online information, the use of this information for domain-specific learning, and the influence of the characteristics of both online information sources and learners on searching, evaluating, and selecting online information. Moreover, research on how this information-related behavior develops and affects learning outcomes is considered. The literature research, conducted in 2020, employed the database Education Resources Information Center (ERIC) and the search engine Google Scholar. Based on relevant search phrases and keywords, over 500 publications were found. After a second search, 55 fitting publications from 2009 onwards were identified. The review reveals a lack of research on the characteristics of online information, how these characteristics affect student learning in higher education, and how student learning can be fostered by improving students' information-related strategies. Research integrating these different perspectives is even scarcer.

Digital Undergraduate Education in Dentistry: A Systematic Review - Zitzmann, Nicola U.; Matthisson, Lea; Ohla, Harald; Joda, Tim (International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020)
The aim of this systematic review was to investigate current penetration and educational quality enhancements from digitalization in the dental curriculum. Using a modified PICO strategy, the literature was searched using PubMed supplemented with a manual search to identify English-language articles published between 1994 and 2020 that reported the use of digital techniques in dental education. A total of 211 articles were identified by electronic search, of which 55 articles were selected for inclusion and supplemented with 27 additional publications retrieved by manual search, resulting in 82 studies that were included in the review. Publications were categorized into five areas of digital dental education: Web-based knowledge transfer and e-learning, digital surface mapping, dental simulator motor skills (including intraoral optical scanning), digital radiography, and surveys related to the penetration and acceptance of digital education. This review demonstrates that digitalization offers great potential to revolutionize dental education to help prepare future dentists for their daily practice. More interactive and intuitive e-learning possibilities will arise to stimulate an enjoyable and meaningful educational experience with 24/7 facilities. Augmented and virtual reality technology will likely play a dominant role in the future of dental education.

Cyberbullying Among Adolescents and Children: A Comprehensive Review of the Global Situation, Risk Factors, and Preventive Measures - Zhu, Chengyan; Huang, Shiqing; Evans, Richard; Zhang, Wei (Frontiers in Public Health, 2021)
Background: Cyberbullying is well-recognized as a severe public health issue which affects both adolescents and children. Most extant studies have focused on national and regional effects of cyberbullying, with few examining the global perspective of cyberbullying. This systematic review comprehensively examines the global situation, risk factors, and preventive measures taken worldwide to fight cyberbullying among adolescents and children.Methods: A systematic review of available literature was completed following PRISMA guidelines using the search themes “cyberbullying” and “adolescent or children”; the time frame was from January 1st, 2015 to December 31st, 2019. Eight academic databases pertaining to public health, and communication and psychology were consulted, namely: Web of Science, Science Direct, PubMed, Google Scholar, ProQuest, Communication & Mass Media Complete, CINAHL, and PsycArticles. Additional records identified through other sources included the references of reviews and two websites, Cyberbullying Research Center and United Nations Children's Fund. A total of 63 studies out of 2070 were included in our final review focusing on cyberbullying prevalence and risk factors.Results: The prevalence rates of cyberbullying preparation ranged from 6.0 to 46.3%, while the rates of cyberbullying victimization ranged from 13.99 to 57.5%, based on 63 references. Verbal violence was the most common type of cyberbullying. Fourteen risk factors and three protective factors were revealed in this study. At the personal level, variables associated with cyberbullying including age, gender, online behavior, race, health condition, past experience of victimization, and impulsiveness were reviewed as risk factors. Likewise, at the situational level, parent-child relationship, interpersonal relationships, and geographical location were also reviewed in relation to cyberbullying. As for protective factors, empathy and emotional intelligence, parent-child relationship, and school climate were frequently mentioned.Conclusion: The prevalence rate of cyberbullying has increased significantly in the observed 5-year period, and it is imperative that researchers from low and middle income countries focus sufficient attention on cyberbullying of children and adolescents. Despite a lack of scientific intervention research on cyberbullying, the review also identified several promising strategies for its prevention from the perspectives of youths, parents and schools. More research on cyberbullying is needed, especially on the issue of cross-national cyberbullying. International cooperation, multi-pronged and systematic approaches are highly encouraged to deal with cyberbullying.

Teacher-student relationship and mathematical problem-solving ability: mediating roles of self-efficacy and mathematical anxiety - Zhou, Da; Du, Xiaofeng; Hau, Kit-Tai; Luo, Haifeng; Feng, Pingting; Liu, Jian (Educational Psychology, 2020)
This study investigated the mediating roles of self-efficacy and anxiety on the effects of teacher–student relationship on mathematical problem-solving ability. A total of 1667 fifth graders from central China participated in the large-scale survey. The findings indicated that (1) teacher–student relationship had a direct and positive effect on students’ mathematical problem-solving ability; (2) the positive link between teacher–student relationship and mathematical problem-solving ability was partially mediated through self-efficacy; (3) the teacher–student relationship affected students’ mathematical problem-solving ability through self-efficacy and maths anxiety, but the effect of self-efficacy on mathematical anxiety was smaller. Implications for the importance of teacher–student relationships in education as well as suggestions for future research are discussed.

The effectiveness of technology-facilitated personalized learning on learning achievements and learning perceptions: a meta-analysis - Zheng, Lanqin; Long, Miaolang; Zhong, Lu; Gyasi, Juliana Fosua (Education and Information Technologies, 2022)
As a learner-centered approach, technology-facilitated personalized learning has received increasing attention in the field of education. However, it is not clear whether technology-facilitated personalized learning is effective for both learning achievements and learning perceptions. This study aims to close the research gaps and examine the effect sizes of technology-facilitated personalized learning on learning achievements and learning perceptions from 2001 to 2020. In total, 34 empirical studies were synthesized in the present meta-analysis. The findings revealed that technology-facilitated personalized learning had a medium effect size on learning achievements and a small effect size on learning perceptions. Furthermore, the impacts of 10 moderator variables, including the sample levels, sample sizes, learning domains, research design, research settings, intervention duration, learning methods, software and hardware that support personalized learning, and user-oriented personalized parameters, were analyzed in depth. It was found that learning methods and personalized learning software significantly moderated the effect sizes. The novelty and main contribution of this study is threefold. First, this study revealed that technology-facilitated personalized learning was more effective than traditional learning through the comprehensive meta-analysis. Second, this study found that learning methods and personalized learning software could trigger and leverage the effects of technology-facilitated personalized learning. Third, this study proposed a design framework of technology-facilitated personalized learning to facilitate the implementation of personalized learning effectively.

OPT: Open Pre-trained Transformer Language Models - Zhang, Susan; Roller, Stephen; Goyal, Naman; Artetxe, Mikel; Chen, Moya; Chen, Shuohui; Dewan, Christopher; Diab, Mona; Li, Xian; Lin, Xi Victoria; Mihaylov, Todor; Ott, Myle; et al. (arXiv, 2022)
Large language models, which are often trained for hundreds of thousands of compute days, have shown remarkable capabilities for zero- and few-shot learning. Given their computational cost, these models are difficult to replicate without significant capital. For the few that are available through APIs, no access is granted to the full model weights, making them difficult to study. We present Open Pre-trained Transformers (OPT), a suite of decoder-only pre-trained transformers ranging from 125M to 175B parameters, which we aim to fully and responsibly share with interested researchers. We show that OPT-175B is comparable to GPT-3, while requiring only 1/7th the carbon footprint to develop. We are also releasing our logbook detailing the infrastructure challenges we faced, along with code for experimenting with all of the released models.

This paper aimed to provide a holistic view of research that investigated online learning in higher education around the globe during COVID-19 utilizing a bibliometric analysis. The researchers used co-citation analysis and text mining afforded by VOSviewer to document and analyze research patterns and topics reported in peer-reviewed documents published between January 2020 and August 2021. Findings of this study indicated that scholars from 103 countries or regions from the Global North and Global South investigated a wide array of topics, such as use of various technologies and strategies, redesigned curriculum, student perceptions and psychological impacts of the pandemic-imposed online learning. Many researchers applied technology acceptance theories and structural equation modeling to investigate factors associated with adoption and impacts of the pandemic-imposed online learning. Of the large quantity of research, medical education and chemical education were the most investigated disciplines. Inquiry-based learning, discovery learning, hands-on learning and collaborative learning emerged as instructional approaches frequently discussed or utilized across the target studies. This paper discussed (a) ongoing and emerging challenges to online higher education, (b) placing innovative pedagogies at the forefront of online learning, and (c) rapid, but imbalanced distribution of evolving literature based on the findings. Practitioner notes What is already known about this topic Online learning had attracted growing traction as a flexible and affordable means to complement traditional higher education prior to COVID-19. Higher education institutions (HEIs), faculty and students around the globe have encountered various challenges and opportunities regarding online teaching and learning during COVID-19. What this paper adds A bird's-eye-view perspective of how HEIs around the globe responded to the pandemic-imposed online teaching and learning using the bibliometric methodology. Identifications of a large body of research (n = 1061 documents) conducted by scholars from 103 countries or regions that investigated the pandemic-imposed online higher education, indicating an unprecedented level of participation in this area. An analysis of distinct themes arising from research on the pandemic-imposed online learning, such as medical education and psychological impact, chemistry curriculum and laboratory-based instruction and technology acceptance model. Implications for practice and/or policy The large corpus of studies on online higher education from different aspects can provide cross-disciplinary information guiding future research and design of online learning.

Deep Learning in Automatic Math Word Problem Solvers - Zhang, Dongxiang (AI in Learning: Designing the Future, 2023)
The design of an automatic solver for mathematical word problems (MWPs) dates back to the early 1960s and regained booming attention in recent years, owing to revolutionary advances in deep learning. Its objective is to parse the human-readable word problems into machine-understandable logical expressions. The problem is challenging due to the existence of a substantial semantic gap. To a certain extent, MWPs have been recognized as good test beds to evaluate the intelligence level of agents in terms of natural language understanding and automatic reasoning. The successful solving of MWPs can benefit online tutoring and constitute a milestone toward general AI. In this chapter, we present a general introduction to the technical evolution trend for MWP solvers in recent decades and pay particular attention to recent advancement with deep learning models. We also report their performances on public benchmark datasets, which can update readers’ understandings of the latest status of automatic math problem solvers.

A Review of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Education from 2010 to 2020 - Zhai, Xuesong; Chu, Xiaoyan; Chai, Ching Sing; Jong, Morris Siu Yung; Istenic, Andreja; Spector, Michael; Liu, Jia-Bao; Yuan, Jing; Li, Yan (Complexity, 2021)
This study provided a content analysis of studies aiming to disclose how artificial intelligence (AI) has been applied to the education sector and explore the potential research trends and challenges of AI in education. A total of 100 papers including 63 empirical papers (74 studies) and 37 analytic papers were selected from the education and educational research category of Social Sciences Citation Index database from 2010 to 2020. The content analysis showed that the research questions could be classified into development layer (classification, matching, recommendation, and deep learning), application layer (feedback, reasoning, and adaptive learning), and integration layer (affection computing, role-playing, immersive learning, and gamification). Moreover, four research trends, including Internet of Things, swarm intelligence, deep learning, and neuroscience, as well as an assessment of AI in education, were suggested for further investigation. However, we also proposed the challenges in education may be caused by AI with regard to inappropriate use of AI techniques, changing roles of teachers and students, as well as social and ethical issues. The results provide insights into an overview of the AI used for education domain, which helps to strengthen the theoretical foundation of AI in education and provides a promising channel for educators and AI engineers to carry out further collaborative research.

Exploring relationships between teachers and students with diagnosed disabilities: A multi-informant approach - Zee, Marjolein; de Bree, Elise; Hakvoort, Britt; Koomen, Helma M. Y. (Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology, 2020)
This study explored unique associations of student disabilities (ADHD, ASD, dyslexia) with teacher-, student- and peer-perceptions of student–teacher relationship quality. Sixty-three teachers, 510 students, and classmates from 24 Dutch mainstream elementary schools completed questionnaires about the student–teacher relationship quality. Teachers indicated whether students were diagnosed with disabilities. Multilevel models indicated that both teachers and classmates, but not students with ADHD themselves, reported higher levels of conflict in relationships. Additionally, teachers experienced less closeness and more conflict in relationships with children with ASD. The lower levels of closeness were also reported by classmates, but not by students with ASD themselves. Last, students with dyslexia experienced less closeness and conflict with their teacher, whereas their classmates and teachers reported more closeness and less conflict in relationships.

Mapping the field of research on African higher education: a review of 6483 publications from 1980 to 2019 - Zavale, Nelson Casimiro; Schneijderberg, Christian (Higher Education, 2022)
Following a global trend, higher education (HE) in Africa has also become a complex enterprise, potentially demanding specific expertise in higher education research. However, despite this, there is a dearth of analysis into the state of research on African HE. This paper seeks to fill this gap by mapping and analysing African HE research. We undertake a systematic review of 6483 articles and books focusing on African HE published from 1980 to 2019 in indexed and non-indexed journals and book-publishers. We particularly examine the evolution of publications, the journals and book publishers, the authors’ affiliations, the researched countries, the publications’ thematic classification, the most prolific authors, and the most influential publications. Based on this analysis, we draw four main conclusions. First, research on African HE is a rather recent phenomenon or has witnessed a recent rise or renewal. Second, a few selected journals and book-publishers, particularly those with a strong regional or international reputation, dominate the field. Third, four communities of researchers are more represented: the community researching teaching and learning issues, the community focusing on structural transformation of HE, the community focusing on the internal organisation of HE and the community focusing on societal engagement of HE. Four, South Africa dominates the field both as home to most of the authors (including the most prolific) and the empirical field of most publications (including the most influential). If South Africa is excluded, African HE research is weak, but some communities are emerging, particularly in West, East and Southern Africa.

Exploring the dynamics of female rural-urban migration for secondary education in Ethiopia - Yorke, Louise; Gilligan, Robbie; Alemu, Eyerusalem (Compare: A Journal of Comparative and International Education, 2021)
Based on ethnographic fieldwork, we explore the rural-urban migration of 27 girls and young women who leave their rural communities and move to the city to pursue their secondary education, in the ethnically diverse Southern Region of Ethiopia. We consider the nature and extent of the inequalities that they face in rural areas which limit their education opportunities and outcomes and underpin their expected entry into marriage. We compare their experiences in their rural communities with their lives in the city, where they have greater access to resources and greater freedom and decision-making power and the opportunity to continue their secondary education, although their futures are still uncertain. Through our analysis we reveal some of the tensions between the promise of girls’ secondary education promoted at the international and national level and the lived realities of rural girls and women, many of whom are unable to realise this promise.

School Choice and the Polarization of Public Schools in A Global City: A Bourdieusian GIS Approach - Yoon, Ee-Seul; Marmureanu, Cosmin; Brown, Robert S. (Peabody Journal of Education, 2020)
Over the past three decades, urban sociologists have shed light on the intensifying social inequality between the wealthiest and poorest neighborhoods in global cities; yet limited research has been done to illuminate the relationships between urban polarization and school choice (i.e., where parents choose schools for their children). This study sociospatially examines the patterns of secondary school choice in the global city of Toronto to illuminate the relationship between urban polarization and school choice. In doing so, this study combines Pierre Bourdieu’s sociospatial theory with a geographic information systems (GIS) approach. Overall, we found that popular schools and schools with specialized choice programs tend to be located in high-status neighborhoods, defined as neighborhoods with residents in the top 20% of family income, home prices, education attainment, and representation from the dominant culture. We also show that mobile students who choose popular schools or highly sought-after specialized programs tend to come from advantaged neighborhoods. Meanwhile, local students who choose a regular school in their neighborhood tend to come from low-status neighborhoods. With a new interdisciplinary approach, this study contributes to a more spatialized understanding of how social inequality and polarization account for school choice.

Preservice teachers' perceptions about the use of blended learning in a science education methods course - Yılmaz, Özkan; Malone, Kathy L (Smart Learning Environments, 2020)
The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine the effectiveness of blended learning within the context of a science education methods course for early childhood elementary preservice teachers in Turkey. Elementary teachers historically fear science and avoid using it in their classes. This course was blended to allow the students to experience active science learning during face to face sessions. Student perceptions about their experiences in a blended methods course were collected using a previously validated survey. The data analysis of the post-test only survey research design demonstrated that students’ perceptions were positive towards the use of blended learning within their science education methods course. However, the analysis determined that students felt that certain technical aspects of the blended learning environment hindered their learning.

A Comprehensive Review of Educational Technology on Objective Learning Outcomes in Academic Contexts - Yeung, Kam Leung; Carpenter, Shana K.; Corral, Daniel (Educational Psychology Review, 2021)
Rapid advances in technology during the last few decades have provided a multitude of new options for teaching and learning. Although technology is being widely adopted in education, there is a shortage of research on the effects that this technology might have on student learning, and why those effects occur. We conducted a comprehensive review of the literature on various uses of digital technology in educational settings, and the effects of that technology on students’ objective learning outcomes. We interpret these effects within the context of empirical research on effective principles of learning, and the extent to which the affordances of technology permit opportunities for increased engagement with the material, retrieval practice, and spacing. Results revealed that technology is neither beneficial nor harmful for learning when used primarily as a means of presenting information (e.g., information viewed on a computer screen vs. on paper), but can be beneficial when it involves unique affordances that leverage effective learning principles. We discues these findings in light of the ever-increasing availability of technology in education, and the importance of evidence-guided criteria in decisions about adoption and implementation.

AI Applications in Education - Xu, Zhengyu; Wei, Yingjia; Zhang, Jinming (Artificial Intelligence for Communications and Networks, 2021)
In recent years, led by the wave of artiﬁcial intelligence, “artiﬁcial intelligence + education” has become a very hot topic. More and more traditional educational institutions have begun to organize and layout the ﬁeld of ARTIFICIAL intelligence education. Training artiﬁcial intelligence talents will become an important mission of education. Meanwhile, educational methods will change with the development of artiﬁcial intelligence, and the deep integration of artiﬁcial intelligence and education will become the development trend of the future education world. The future has come, when education and artiﬁcial intelligence meet, what kind of spark will be produced? This paper mainly discusses the application, research status and development trend of artiﬁcial intelligence in the ﬁeld of education, as well as the deep integration of artiﬁcial intelligence and education.

DARWIN Series: Domain Specific Large Language Models for Natural Science - Xie, Tong; Wan, Yuwei; Huang, Wei; Yin, Zhenyu; Liu, Yixuan; Wang, Shaozhou; Linghu, Qingyuan; Kit, Chunyu; Grazian, Clara; Zhang, Wenjie; Razzak, Imran; Hoex, Bram (arXiv, 2023)
Emerging tools bring forth fresh approaches to work, and the field of natural science is no different. In natural science, traditional manual, serial, and labour-intensive work is being augmented by automated, parallel, and iterative processes driven by artificial intelligence-based experimental automation and more. To add new capabilities in natural science, enabling the acceleration and enrichment of automation of the discovery process, we present DARWIN, a series of tailored LLMs for natural science, mainly in physics, chemistry, and material science. This series relies on open-source LLM, incorporating structured and unstructured scientific knowledge from public datasets and literature. We fine-tuned the models using over 60,000 instruction data points, emphasizing factual correctness. During the fine-tuning, we introduce the Scientific Instruction Generation (SIG) model, automating instruction generation from scientific texts. This eliminates the need for manual extraction or domain-specific knowledge graphs and efficiently injects scientific knowledge into the model. We also explore multi-task training strategies, revealing interconnections between scientific tasks. DARWIN series not only achieves state-of-the-art results on various scientific tasks but also diminishes reliance on closed-source AI models. Our research showcases the ability of LLM in the scientific domain, with the overarching goal of fostering prosperity within the broader AI for science community.

Psychometric evaluation of the self-efficacy questionnaire for children (SEQ-C): validation among Chinese children and adolescents - Xie, Han; Shlonsky, Aron; Harrigan, Susy (Current Psychology, 2022)
The Self-Efficacy Questionnaire for Children (SEQ-C) is a well-established measure of self-efficacy including three specific task demands, that is, academic self-efficacy, social self-efficacy, and emotional self-efficacy. The present study examined the applicability of the SEQ-C for measuring children’s self-efficacy in a Chinese population. The sample was comprised of 1491 students in Grade 4 to 11 (boys = 52.8%; mean age = 13.0 years) in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was conducted to test the factor structure of the SEQ-C. Also, bivariate correlations between SEQ-C and children’s prosocial behavior, bullying behavior and victimized experience were tested to reflect the convergent validity of the SEQ-C. The results revealed that a modified 20-item Chinese version of the SEQ-C had excellent internal consistency reliability, good construct validity, overall acceptable convergent validity and measurement invariance across gender and school level. Only minor adaptions were necessary, and the rationale for making these adjustments was based on both content and performance of the measure. In addition to the cross-cultural validation, this study has extended the age range of the target users (14 to 17 years) by confirming the suitability of the SEQ-C for age groups spanning primary and secondary school children aged between 9 and 18 years. For those working and doing research in schools, this validation study increases confidence in the use of the Chinese SEQ-C and its subscales for identifying children’s self-efficacy in specific domains and for conducting research on interventions where self-efficacy is an important predictor or outcome.

Using Live Video Streaming in Online Tutoring: Exploring Factors Affecting Social Interaction - Wu, Man; Gao, Qin (International Journal of Human–Computer Interaction, 2020)
The growth of live video streaming (LVS) technology provides new possibilities for online tutoring in that it accommodates a massive number of learners simultaneously. Questions still exist, however, about the extent to which new technology can support interactions between an instructor and a vast number of learners, as well as which factors would influence learners’ interactions with the instructor and peer learners. This study explored these questions by conducting a survey involving 189 senior high school students participating in online LVS tutoring. The results indicated that learner–instructor interaction dominated social interaction in the online tutoring environment with the current system design. This design may also contribute to the development of the perceived presence of peer learners with few direct information exchanges among peers. Social Connectedness and perceived enjoyment positively influenced learner–instructor interaction, whereas social fears and the social presence of the instructor negatively influenced learner–learner interaction.

Artificial Intelligence Innovations for Multimodal Learning, Interfaces, and Analytics - Worsley, Marcelo (AI in Learning: Designing the Future, 2023)
The twenty-first century has brought with it a growing variety of authentic and engaging learning environments. While significant portions of human learning still take place in traditional classrooms, researchers and educators have innovated several learning experiences that are embodied, project-based, inquiry-driven, collaborative, and open-ended. Furthermore, there has been greater acknowledgement of the varying timescales and contexts where meaningful learning takes place, as well as greater attention to previously underappreciated competencies like creativity, self-regulation, and collaboration. This expansion in the types, contexts, and timescales of human learning necessitate novel analytic approaches. This chapter will discuss how artificial intelligence-based tools and technologies can help researchers and practitioners navigate and enact these novel approaches to learning, while also providing a meaningful lens for student reflection and inquiry. Consequently, this chapter includes discussions of (1) technologies that provide learners with a broader set of modalities to showcase their knowledge, (2) tools that offer insights within groups of students using audio/video information, and (3) analytic techniques and interfaces for helping researchers collect and analyze different types of multimodal data across contexts. The chapter will also discuss some of the ethics surrounding these types of data and analytic approaches.

A Landscape Review of ICT for Disability-inclusive Education - World Bank (World Bank, 2022)
Information and communication technology (ICT) tools can have a catalytic effect in advancing both educational access and learning outcomes for children with disabilities. Despite tremendous potential, a gap exists between technology advancements and their large-scale application in educating children with disabilities in low- and middle-income countries. This landscape review of ICTs for disability inclusive education by the Inclusive Education Initiative seeks to understand the current status and trends in the practice of educational technology (EdTech) and the use of ICT in improving the educational participation and outcomes of children with disabilities. The review explores what factors enable or restrict this improvement within the wider EdTech ecosystem.

A Historic Shock to Parental Engagement in Education: Parent Perspectives in Botswana during COVID-19. Policy Brief - Winthrop, Rebecca; Ershadi, Mahsa; Angrist, Noam; Bortsie, Efua; Matsheng, Moitshepi (Center for Universal Education at The Brookings Institution, 2020)
When schools closed in Botswana on March 23, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, education administrators, teachers, and ultimately parents were faced with difficult decisions about how to help children continue learning without setting foot inside a classroom. In-person classes returned on June 17, 2020, though a second school closure occurred for two weeks beginning July 30 in greater Gaborone. The COVID-19 pandemic has provided a historic shock to education systems worldwide, necessitating parents to join the frontlines of the teaching-learning process. In this report, the authors share data from recent research on parents in Botswana, seeking to shed light on a range of questions, including: (1) What have been parents' experiences in relation to their children's education? (2) What are parents' beliefs about what makes for a quality education for their child? (3) What informs parents' beliefs about education at this time? and (4) What can the education community learn from the different parent engagement approaches used during COVID-19 that could be relevant long term? While there is much to learn from parents' responses, the report presents three main findings that have implications for education policymakers, administrators, educators, and civil society partners: (1) parents have high but declining levels of satisfaction with their children's education; (2) parents want schools to teach a breadth of academic and non-academic competencies and skills but believe their children's teachers primarily value academic skills; and (3) despite prioritizing non-academic skills, parents rely heavily on academic exams to indicate a good quality education.

External Validity and Policy Adaptation: From Impact Evaluation to Policy Design - Williams, Martin J (The World Bank Research Observer, 2020)
With the growing number of rigorous impact evaluations worldwide, the question of how best to apply this evidence to policymaking processes has arguably become the main challenge for evidence-based policymaking. How can policymakers predict whether a policy will have the same impact in their context as it did elsewhere, and how should this inﬂuence the design and implementation of policy? This paper introduces a simple and ﬂexible framework to address these questions of external validity and policy adaptation. I show that failures of external validity arise from an interaction between a policy’s theory of change and a dimension of the context in which it is being implemented, and develop a method of “mechanism mapping” that maps a policy’s theory of change against salient contextual assumptions to identify external validity problems and suggest appropriate policy adaptations. In deciding whether and how to adapt a policy in a new context, I show there is a fundamental informational trade-o↵ between the strength and relevance of evidence on the policy from other contexts and the policymaker’s knowledge of the local context. This trade-o↵ can guide policymakers’ judgments about whether policies should be copied exactly from elsewhere, adapted, or invented anew.

Encouraging Community Action Against Teacher Absenteeism: A Mass Media Experiment in Rural Uganda - Wilke, Anna M.; Green, Donald P.; Tan, Benjamin (The Journal of Development Studies, 2021)
Chronic teacher absenteeism is widespread in Uganda, with approximately one-third of public school teachers absent on any given day. Absenteeism and other problems that arise in Uganda’s public education system are often attributed to a lack of public oversight and parental involvement. In an effort to develop a scalable method of encouraging community engagement on this issue, the present study assesses the extent to which entertainment-education videos increase willingness among Ugandans to take action against absenteeism. Working in collaboration with Ugandan screenwriters and local actors, we developed video dramatisations that depicted the problem of absenteeism and how parents mobilised to address it. We assess the persuasive effects of these dramatisations both under lab-like conditions, to gauge immediate effects, and in the field, to gauge effects two months and eight months after a placebo-controlled media campaign attended by over 10,000 Ugandans in 112 villages. Although the persuasive effects are weaker in the field than the lab setting, the former remain substantial even after eight months. The demonstrated ability of entertainment-education to change public views on this issue sets the stage for policy experiments that test whether entertainment-education campaigns have downstream effects on absenteeism and public school performance more generally.

Effectiveness of Virtual Medical Teaching During the COVID-19 Crisis: Systematic Review - Wilcha, Robyn-Jenia (JMIR Medical Education, 2020)
Background: In December 2019, COVID-19 emerged and rapidly spread worldwide. Transmission of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is high; as a result, countries worldwide have imposed rigorous public health measures, such as quarantine. This has involved the suspension of medical school classes globally. Medical school attachments are vital to aid the progression of students’ confidence and competencies as future physicians. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, medical schools have sought ways to replace medical placements with virtual clinical teaching. Objective: The objective of this study was to review the advantages and disadvantages of virtual medical teaching for medical students during the COVID-19 pandemic based on the current emerging literature. Methods: A brief qualitative review based on the application and effectiveness of virtual teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic was conducted by referencing keywords, including medical student virtual teaching COVID-19, virtual undergraduate medical education, and virtual medical education COVID-19, in the electronic databases of PubMed and Google Scholar. A total of 201 articles were found, of which 34 were included in the study. Manual searches of the reference lists of the included articles yielded 5 additional articles. The findings were tabulated and assessed under the following headings: summary of virtual teaching offered, strengths of virtual teaching, and weaknesses of virtual teaching. Results: The strengths of virtual teaching included the variety of web-based resources available. New interactive forms of virtual teaching are being developed to enable students to interact with patients from their homes. Open-access teaching with medical experts has enabled students to remain abreast of the latest medical advancements and to reclaim knowledge lost by the suspension of university classes and clinical attachments. Peer mentoring has been proven to be a valuable tool for medical students with aims of increasing knowledge and providing psychological support. Weaknesses of virtual teaching included technical challenges, confidentiality issues, reduced student engagement, and loss of assessments. The mental well-being of students was found to be negatively affected during the pandemic. Inequalities of virtual teaching services worldwide were also noted to cause differences in medical education. Conclusions: In the unprecedented times of the COVID-19 pandemic, medical schools have a duty to provide ongoing education to medical students. The continuation of teaching is crucial to enable the graduation of future physicians into society. The evidence suggests that virtual teaching is effective, and institutions are working to further develop these resources to improve student engagement and interactivity. Moving forward, medical faculties must adopt a more holistic approach to student education and consider the mental impact of COVID-19 on students as well as improve the security and technology of virtual platforms.

13th - Wikipedia (Wikipedia, 2020)
13th is a 2016 American documentary by director Ava DuVernay. The film explores the "intersection of race, justice, and mass incarceration in the United States;" it is titled after the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, adopted in 1865, which abolished slavery throughout the United States and ended involuntary servitude except as a punishment for conviction of a crime. DuVernay contends that slavery has been perpetuated since the end of the American Civil War through criminalizing behavior and enabling police to arrest poor freedmen and force them to work for the state under convict leasing; suppression of African Americans by disenfranchisement, lynchings and Jim Crow; politicians declaring a war on drugs that weighs more heavily on minority communities and, by the late 20th century, mass incarceration of people of color in the United States. She examines the prison-industrial complex and the emerging detention-industrial complex, discussing how much money is being made by corporations from such incarcerations. 13th garnered acclaim from a number of film critics. It was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature at the 89th Academy Awards, and won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special at the 69th Primetime Emmy Awards.

Theory of change - Wikipedia (2020)
Theory of Change (ToC) is a specific type of methodology for planning, participation, and evaluation that is used in companies, philanthropy, not-for-profit and government sectors to promote social change. Theory of Change defines long-term goals and then maps backward to identify necessary preconditions.Theory of Change explains the process of change by outlining causal linkages in an initiative, i.e., its shorter-term, intermediate, and longer-term outcomes. The identified changes are mapped – as the “outcomes pathway” – showing each outcome in logical relationship to all the others, as well as chronological flow. The links between outcomes are explained by “rationales” or statements of why one outcome is thought to be a prerequisite for another.The innovation of Theory of Change lies (1) in making the distinction between desired and actual outcomes and (2) in requiring stakeholders to model their desired outcomes before they decide on forms of intervention to achieve those outcomes. Theory of Change can begin at any stage of an initiative, depending on the intended use. A theory developed at the outset is best at informing the planning of an initiative. Having worked out a change model, practitioners can make more informed decisions about strategy and tactics. As monitoring and evaluation data become available, stakeholders can periodically refine the Theory of Change as the evidence indicates. A Theory of Change can be developed retrospectively by reading program documents, talking to stakeholders, and analyzing data. This is often done during evaluations reflecting what has worked or not in order to understand the past and plan for the future.

Comparative Advantages of Offline Digital Technology for Remote Indigenous Classrooms in Guatemala (2019-2020) - Wiebe, Adrienne; Crisostomo, Luis Javier; Perez, Ruben Feliciano; Anderson, Terry (Journal of Learning for Development, 2022)
Technology has been viewed as a means to improve the quality of education for children globally, particularly in remote and marginal communities. This study examines the comparative advantages of the use of appropriate technology (off-line servers with digital libraries connected to a classroom set of laptops) in ten intervention schools in Indigenous communities in Guatemala for one school year. The study was too short (due to pandemic restrictions) to demonstrate statistically significant differences for learning outcomes. However, using an instructional core model as a framework, qualitative findings supported four previously identified comparative advantages, and identified four additional ones relevant to remote Indigenous communities. The intervention validated the ability of technology to improve standardized instruction, differentiated instruction, opportunities for practice, and learner engagement. Newly identified advantages are: access to high-quality educational resources (substitution for print materials), teacher capacity-building, student technical skills and digital literacy, and sharing cultural knowledge.

Children's Privacy: An Evaluation of EdTech Privacy Policies - West, Tobi (2022)
Due to social distancing requirements at the onset of the pandemic many schools suddenly transitioned to online learning platforms. Additionally, minors create a significant amount of digital assets, often without regard for privacy or future use. Without ill intent, adults may encourage children to create digital assets containing private information, potentially leading to future embarrassment. During the child's younger years, they have the autonomy to create digital assets, yet they do not have the legal right to determine the use or deletion of those assets. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) is meant to protect children's privacy and as early adopters of new education technology, eager teachers are deciding which tools to use that may circumvent their school or district's approval processes. As features of their products, Education technology (EdTech) companies may share the data collected from children with third-party service providers to perform data analysis. Those service providers may not share the same compliance level in their privacy policy, putting the privacy and security of consumer data at further risk. This study reviews the privacy policies of three EdTech tools for COPPA compliance based on the Federal Trade Commission's tips for consumers. The report includes information about the privacy implications of third-party data processing, the legal consequences of privacy violations after the collection of minors' digital assets, and an explanation of the privacy policy evaluation reports of EdTech tools provided by Common Sense Media with suggestions for parents, teachers, and school administrators.

Ethical Guidelines for Artificial Intelligence-Based Learning: A Transnational Study Between China and Finland - Wei, Ge; Niemi, Hannele (AI in Learning: Designing the Future, 2023)
Artificial intelligence (AI) plays an increasingly prevalent role in the global education system. However, there is a lack of transparency about how AI technologies work alongside certain ethical guidelines. Achieving the global benefits of AI-driven learning and education requires international dialogue on the commonplaces of ethical considerations. This paper, taking China and Finland as two contextual cases, analyzes how AI-related policies at the national level have focused on educational themes and established aims for improving the quality of learning and education. As a result, four themes for AI ethics have emerged: (1) inclusion and personalization, (2) justice and safety, (3) transparency and responsibility, and (4) autonomy and sustainability. Although both China and Finland recognize the importance of AI ethics, the differences are manifested in their policy approaches, properties, and strategies due to sociocultural variation. This chapter emphasizes the need for international and transnational dialogue from ethical perspectives to foster our reciprocal understanding of AI and the human-centered stance on education in the digitized age.

Affordance Theory - Wegerif, Rupert; Major, Louis (The Theory of Educational Technology, 2023)
The theory of affordances has been widely applied in studies of educational technology. In particular, it has been suggested that different education technologies ‘afford’ different kinds of teaching and learning. In this chapter, we look back to the origin of affordance theory in the work of perceptual psychologist James Gibson. We then offer a brief history of how affordance has been adapted and applied to educational technology. It has been suggested that the concept of affordances is too loose to be useful. This is perhaps because the affordances for action and for thought that any technology has not only depend on the technology, but also on how the user responds to the technology. We discuss the need to design the cultures and norms that shape user responses in addition to designing the technology itself. We offer an example to suggest that affordance theory can be particularly useful for educational design-based research that moves iteratively between the perspective of users and the perspective of the technology.

An Alternative History of Educational Technology - Wegerif, Rupert; Major, Louis (The Theory of Educational Technology, 2023)
In most histories of educational technology, technology is referred to as a way of supporting education. In this chapter, we explore what happens when this framing of the relationship is reversed and we think about education as a way of supporting technology. We begin with the story of some of the first schools 4000 years ago in Ancient Sumeria. These, we claim, were created to support what was then a relatively new information and communications technology, cuneiform literacy. We argue that the shift from education based on talking and listening to education based on reading and writing involved a change in how knowledge is thought about and how education is understood. After the spread of education based on literacy, and later, on print literacy (which includes numeracy), a new kind of knowledge became possible: knowledge as an indirect representation of a reality rather than knowledge as a direct relationship with reality. This shift from oracy to literacy involved losses as well as gains. We end with a case study suggesting that digitally mediated education might be able to include more of the relationship and connectedness that is of value in oral education systems whilst continuing to support the greater reach and power of print literacy.

Heidegger's Hammer - Wegerif, Rupert; Major, Louis (The Theory of Educational Technology, 2023)
Heidegger’s discussion of the way that tools and technology enter into experience has had a profound impact on the philosophy of technology. In this chapter, we look at the implications for design that follow from his account. We interrogate Heidegger’s criticism of modern technology, which he argues ‘enframes’ us and cuts us off from a more authentic and nourishing relationship with ‘Being’. We find that while Heidegger described modern technology as a danger, he also recognised it as an opportunity for a different kind of human future. Heidegger’s analysis of how technologies can shape our world and our understanding of it is relevant to understanding not only how we use everyday craft tools like hammers, but also to understanding the educational potential of networked digital technologies like global social media and Generative AI.

Introduction: Why we need a theory of educational technology - Wegerif, Rupert; Major, Louis (The Theory of Educational Technology, 2023)
Thinking about how we should use technology in education is thinking about how we want to shape the future of education and, indeed, how we want to shape future humans. Theory is needed to illuminate the issues at stake, but there is only a very limited amount of existing theory specific to educational technology. Moreover, when theory is referred to this is almost invariably education theory without any influence from the theory of technology. This first chapter explains why we think a new ‘dialogic’ theory of educational technology is required and introduces the main themes of the book. We argue that the ‘voice’ of technology should feature prominently in any theory of educational technology. Two case studies are offered to illustrate that the ways in which we frame educational technology makes a difference to how we design for education with technology. The chapter ends with an outline of the argument of the whole book.

Researching Educational Technology - Wegerif, Rupert; Major, Louis (The Theory of Educational Technology, 2023)
In this chapter, we explore the role of theory in educational technology research and ask what the role of theory should be. We begin with a brief history of education and educational technology research. This history suggests these fields have been dominated by ideas about research that are rooted in the affordances of print technology, in a way that does not fit the needs and affordances of digital technology. We also establish how there has been an unproductive alternation between what we call ‘inside’ views, how things feel to participants, and what we call ‘outside’ views, such as statistical patterns in data. It appears that new digital technology not only makes new ways of doing educational research possible, but it also changes how we should think about the purpose and nature of educational research. We end by proposing relatively new methodologies and paradigms influenced by dialogic theory that respond to these historical challenges and are better suited to researching educational technology.

Steps Towards a 'Dialogic' Grammar - Wegerif, Rupert; Major, Louis (The Theory of Educational Technology, 2023)
In this chapter we look at three ‘grammars’ of educational technology, or ways of using and thinking about education technology, that are informed by the advent of the internet: online mediated communities of practice, educational online multi-user role-play games, and connectivism. Each of these grammars has different strengths and weaknesses. Our critique leads us towards a new way of understanding the role of educational technology which we call a ‘dialogic’ grammar or a dialogic foundation for the design of educational technology.

Technology and Expanding Dialogic Space - Wegerif, Rupert; Major, Louis (The Theory of Educational Technology, 2023)
This chapter explores the concept of dialogic space in education and its relationship with technology. We begin by tracing the history of communications technology and its intersection with education, leading up to the emergence of AI chatbots as dialogue partners, arguing that technology has an important role in fostering dialogic spaces. We explore the modern concept of dialogic space, which is rooted in educational research and emphasises the importance of creating a space for open and exploratory dialogue. Specifically, we revisit Martin Buber’s seminal notion of ‘the space between’ as a realm of possibilities within interpersonal relationships. We also highlight the limitations of this theory in not accounting for technology’s materiality in shaping dialogic spaces. Integrating Buber’s ‘space between’ with recent dialogic space theory, we demonstrate how combining pedagogical and technological design can open, widen and deepen dialogic spaces. Two case studies exemplify how designing technology in tandem with pedagogy can project students into an expanded dialogic space. We suggest that expanding dialogic space may be the essence of education and perhaps the most important function of educational technology.

Technology and Expanding Dialogic Time - Wegerif, Rupert; Major, Louis (The Theory of Educational Technology, 2023)
This chapter explores the concept of ‘dialogic time’ and its potential to offer insights into the design and use of technology in education. Education, we argue, is centrally concerned with drawing students into participation in the longer-term dialogues of culture such as science and the arts. We suggest that the design of educational technology and associated pedagogy can bring different temporal contexts into a dialogic relation. Considering dialogic time as well as dialogic space can help educators design for more effective and expansive learning experiences.

The 'Grammar' of Educational Technology - Wegerif, Rupert; Major, Louis (The Theory of Educational Technology, 2023)

The 'Meaning' of Technology - Wegerif, Rupert; Major, Louis (The Theory of Educational Technology, 2023)
This chapter explores the relationship between technology and human meaning making. We begin by challenging the common assumption that technology is a threat to human meaning and move on to explore why collaborations with technology can lead to a greater sense of meaning for learners. We argue that education for meaning requires the design of educational technology that helps learners to more deeply participate in systems that unite the biological, social and technological.

Towards a Dialogic Foundation for the Design of Educational Technology - Wegerif, Rupert; Major, Louis (The Theory of Educational Technology, 2023)
This chapter summarises our investigation into the theory of education technology and outlines a dialogic theory which we hope will prove useful as a foundation for educational technology design. To better understand education and how to improve it, we need to take technology seriously and listen to its ‘voice’. Our proposed dialogic theory focuses on how to design educational technology to support the opening, widening and deepening of dialogic spaces. It is about designing pedagogy with technology to facilitate the dynamic inter-weaving of educational dialogues at different spatio-temporal scales, linking short-term face-to-face dialogues to longer-term and more global dialogues.

Girls’ Education and EdTech: A Rapid Evidence Review - Webb, Daniel; Barringer, Katie; Torrance, Rebecca; Mitchell, Joel (EdTech Hub, 2020)
This Rapid Evidence Review (RER) provides an overview of the existing literature on the use of technology in supporting girls’ education in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). The RER has been produced in response to the novel 2019 coronavirus (COVID-19), and the resulting widespread global shutdown of schools. It therefore has an emphasis on transferable insights that may be applicable to educational responses resulting from the limitations to the continuation of schooling caused by COVID-19. Established approaches to maintaining continuity of education for the most marginalised have particular salience during this period because of the significant increase in the number of students at risk of disruption. Research consistently shows that while education across the board is negatively affected by crisis situations, the schooling of girls is disproportionately impacted. The RER aims neither to advocate nor discourage the use of technology in girls’ education in response to the present COVID-19 pandemic, but rather to provide an accessible summary of existing evidence on the topic so that educators, policy makers and donors might make informed decisions about the potential role of technology in delivering education for girls.

The Importance of Boundary Objects in Industry-Academia Collaborations to Support Evidencing the Efficacy of Educational Technology - Weatherby, Kristen; Clark-Wilson, Alison; Cukurova, Mutlu; Luckin, Rose (TechTrends, 2022)
Abstract The context of a 2.5 year academia-led programme for the educational technology sector in the United Kingdom is used to explore the role of logic models as boundary objects to support the programme objectives. The programme provided educational research training and mentoring to participants from 252 small and medium-sized enterprises to support them with the use of existing and self-generated evidence of the efficacy of their educational technologies. Participants from a deliberate sample of six enterprises were interviewed to elicit their perceptions of the process through which the creation and use of a logic model for their product or service did or did not become a useful tool to support their research and business goals. The results suggest that logic models have vital roles as boundary objects in this context, such as supporting communication, learning, and product development. The study offers a first-case example of how logic models can be used in the design of educational technology, responding to the call for research in this area. A discussion on the challenges associated with the use of the logic model in the context of the project concludes the article.

The relationship between educational television and mathematics capability in Tanzania - Watson, Joe; Hennessy, Sara; Vignoles, Anna (British Journal of Educational Technology, 2021)
Previous studies have often demonstrated that educational television can have a positive effect on learning outcomes in low-income countries when delivered in controlled settings. However, existing research in low-resource contexts has scarcely considered the association between child outcomes and viewing in usual environments (ie, at their home, a friend’s home or a relative’s home). This lack of research is striking, as evidence from controlled settings might provide limited information on the effects of normal television exposure. This paper, therefore, investigates the relationship between normal exposure to a popular Tanzania-produced cartoon, Ubongo Kids and mathematics capability, as represented by plausible values derived from an item response theory model applied to children’s test responses. Cross-sectional investigation of a sample of 38 682 Tanzanian children suggested normal educational television exposure to be significantly associated with mathematics capability, when controlling for age, sex, school enrolment, Kiswahili attainment and household fixed effects. While cross-sectional results are not necessarily causal, the findings in this paper broadly correspond with those from previous designs using repeated observations. What is more, considering association results alongside cost and viewership estimates suggests television-based interventions to be highly cost effective. Practitioner Notes What is already known about this topic National data for Tanzania suggests the country to have both low levels of mathematics proficiency and considerable access to television technology. Educational television-based interventions might, therefore, be worthy of consideration by educational policymakers, especially given that studies conducted in controlled settings indicate that television can deliver learning benefits. There is, however, little evidence concerning educational television exposure outside of controlled settings. Only one such study in a low-income context that concerned the association between learning outcomes and viewing among primary-age children has been identified. What this paper adds This paper addresses this dearth of research by investigating the association between normal exposure to a Tanzanian cartoon, Ubongo Kids and mathematics capability, as derived from an item response theory model applied to the test responses of 38 682 children. Cross-sectional findings suggest the association between normal television exposure and mathematics capability to be significant. Further, a cost-effectiveness comparison with alternate interventions in comparable contexts indicates that educational television is highly cost-effective. Implications for practice and/or policy The findings presented in this paper concerning educational television viewership in usual environments act to triangulate those from prior research conducted in controlled settings. As such, policymakers in low-income contexts now possess more convincing evidence on the potential influence of educational television interventions. Additionally, the cost-effectiveness comparison made suggests that educational television should be considered a viable option by policymakers seeking to address learning outcomes with limited resources.

COVID-19 and digital disruption in UK universities: afflictions and affordances of emergency online migration - Watermeyer, Richard; Crick, Tom; Knight, Cathryn; Goodall, Janet (Higher Education, 2020)
COVID-19 has caused the closure of university campuses around the world and migration of all learning, teaching, and assessment into online domains. The impacts of this on the academic community as frontline providers of higher education are profound. In this article, we report the findings from a survey of n = 1148 academics working in universities in the United Kingdom (UK) and representing all the major disciplines and career hierarchy. Respondents report an abundance of what we call ‘afflictions’ exacted upon their role as educators and in far fewer yet no less visible ways ‘affordances’ derived from their rapid transition to online provision and early ‘entry-level’ use of digital pedagogies. Overall, they suggest that online migration is engendering significant dysfunctionality and disturbance to their pedagogical roles and their personal lives. They also signpost online migration as a major challenge for student recruitment, market sustainability, an academic labour-market, and local economies.

Is indoor environmental quality in my school classroom safe? - Warwocki, Pawel (Open Development & Education, 2023)
How can we monitor indoor environmental quality without access to sophisticated measurement instruments? This blog highlights simple methods for checking classroom environmental quality. The methods cannot replace the processes of taking actual measurements and monitoring, or ensure that classrooms meet code requirements; they will, however, help identify particular problems and indicate actions that can be taken to avoid them. The end of the blog includes a table of the actions described and a simple survey that can be used with schoolchildren. An output of the Open Development & Education, https://opendeved.net/

The relationships between classroom air quality and children’s performance in school - Wargocki, Pawel; Porras-Salazar, Jose Ali; Contreras-Espinoza, Sergio; Bahnfleth, William (Building and Environment, 2020)
The data from published studies were used to derive systematic relationships between learning outcomes and air quality in classrooms. Psychological tests measuring cognitive abilities and skills, school tasks including mathematical and language-based tasks, rating schemes, and tests used to assess progress in learning including end-of-year grades and exam scores were used to quantify learning outcomes. Short-term sick leave was also included because it may influence progress in learning. Classroom indoor air quality was characterized by the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2). For psychological tests and school tasks, fractional changes in performance were regressed against the average concentrations of CO2 at which they occurred; all data reported in studies meeting the inclusion criteria were used to derive the relationship, regardless of whether the change in performance was statistically significant at the examined levels of classroom air quality. The analysis predicts that reducing CO2 concentration from 2,100 ppm to 900 ppm would improve the performance of psychological tests and school tasks by 12% with respect to the speed at which the tasks are performed and by 2% with respect to errors made. For other learning outcomes and short-term sick leave, only the relationships published in the original studies were available. They were therefore used to make predictions. These relationships show that reducing the CO2 concentration from 2,300 ppm to 900 ppm would improve performance on the tests used to assess progress in learning by 5% and that reducing CO2 from 4,100 ppm to 1,000 ppm would increase daily attendance by 2.5%. These results suggest that increasing the ventilation rate in classrooms in the range from 2 L/s-person to 10 L/s-person can bring significant benefits in terms of learning performance and pupil attendance; no data are available for higher rates. The results provide a strong incentive for improving classroom air quality and can be used in cost-benefit analyses.

Effects of Classroom Air Quality on Learning in Schools - Wargocki, Pawel (Handbook of Indoor Air Quality, 2021)
This chapter describes the evidence of the effects of indoor air quality (IAQ) on learning of children and gives an overview of the size of the effects expected. The results from the published experiments on the effects of classroom air quality on the performance of schoolwork do confirm that these effects are systematic and show that improving classroom air quality will have a significant positive effect on some aspects of learning, both on cognitive skills and academic attainment, as well as academic achievements and absence rates. Present studies show that to ensure classroom IAQ conducive to learning, CO2 levels (indicating the adequacy of ventilation) should be kept below 900 ppm at all times. It should be ensured that windows can be opened when needed, to improve classroom IAQ, and CO2 sensors should be installed to indicate when windows must be open (or any other measure to improve IAQ must be executed) if the CO2 concentration is too high and when they should be closed to conserve energy.

Error rates of human reviewers during abstract screening in systematic reviews - Wang, Zhen; Nayfeh, Tarek; Tetzlaff, Jennifer; O’Blenis, Peter; Murad, Mohammad Hassan (PLOS ONE, 2020)
Background Automated approaches to improve the efficiency of systematic reviews are greatly needed. When testing any of these approaches, the criterion standard of comparison (gold standard) is usually human reviewers. Yet, human reviewers make errors in inclusion and exclusion of references. Objectives To determine citation false inclusion and false exclusion rates during abstract screening by pairs of independent reviewers. These rates can help in designing, testing and implementing automated approaches. Methods We identified all systematic reviews conducted between 2010 and 2017 by an evidence-based practice center in the United States. Eligible reviews had to follow standard systematic review procedures with dual independent screening of abstracts and full texts, in which citation inclusion by one reviewer prompted automatic inclusion through the next level of screening. Disagreements between reviewers during full text screening were reconciled via consensus or arbitration by a third reviewer. A false inclusion or exclusion was defined as a decision made by a single reviewer that was inconsistent with the final included list of studies. Results We analyzed a total of 139,467 citations that underwent 329,332 inclusion and exclusion decisions from 86 unique reviewers. The final systematic reviews included 5.48% of the potential references identified through bibliographic database search (95% confidence interval (CI): 2.38% to 8.58%). After abstract screening, the total error rate (false inclusion and false exclusion) was 10.76% (95% CI: 7.43% to 14.09%). Conclusions This study suggests important false inclusion and exclusion rates by human reviewers. When deciding the validity of a future automated study selection algorithm, it is important to keep in mind that the gold standard is not perfect and that achieving error rates similar to humans may be adequate and can save resources and time.

Cost Measurement Guidance Note for Donor-Funded Education Programming. - Walls, Elena; Tulloch, Caitlin; Holla, Alaka (United States Agency for International Development, prepared for Building Evidence in Education (BE2), 2020)
The guidance note’s fundamental objective is to facilitate the adoption of robust cost measurement practices and for the results to improve the effectiveness of global investments in education development among funders and national governments. The closing section of the note presents recommended steps for instituting cost measurement practices in an international donor agency. Harmonizing cost measurement across the entire global sector will increase its value by allowing for comparisons of cost-efficiency and cost-effectiveness of interventions funded by different donors. Similar to international standards for evaluation studies, adopting clear standards for cost studies would allow us to build and use the knowledge base and ultimately improve the efficiency and effectiveness of international investments in education.

Trialling open educational resources for technology-supported teacher professional development in rural Zimbabwe - Walker, Hannah; Hennessy, Sara; Pimmer, Christoph (Research Papers in Education, 2022)
This study reports on the adaptation and outcomes of a teacher professional development (TPD) programme in a rural Zimbabwean secondary school. The programme incorporated Open Educational Resources (OER), specifically OER4school materials, that were provided via tablet computers for teachers and students. A mixed-methods case study was employed to explore teachers’ perceptions, knowledge, experiences of interactive learning and teaching in relation to this TPD, as well as their perceptions and experiences of the role and value of using technology to support student learning. Video data from structured lesson observations were triangulated with teacher post-lesson interviews and thematically coded. The interviews indicated that all teachers demonstrated a change in mindset and a clear understanding of interactive teaching methods. However, the structured observations revealed that only half of the teachers were using these interactive methods. Teachers also emphasised the value of OER and tablet technologies in improving lesson planning and making classroom learning more authentic. The use of technology, as both a TPD medium and as a classroom tool, showed potential to enhance the quality of TPD and teacher quality. Yet more specific teacher development to support the interactive use of technology within the classroom would be beneficial.

Artificial intelligence and the conduct of literature reviews - Wagner, Gerit; Lukyanenko, Roman; Paré, Guy (Journal of Information Technology, 2022)
Artificial intelligence (AI) is beginning to transform traditional research practices in many areas. In this context, literature reviews stand out because they operate on large and rapidly growing volumes of documents, that is, partially structured (meta)data, and pervade almost every type of paper published in information systems research or related social science disciplines. To familiarize researchers with some of the recent trends in this area, we outline how AI can expedite individual steps of the literature review process. Considering that the use of AI in this context is in an early stage of development, we propose a comprehensive research agenda for AI-based literature reviews (AILRs) in our field. With this agenda, we would like to encourage design science research and a broader constructive discourse on shaping the future of AILRs in research.

Understanding the accuracy of teachers’ perceptions about low achieving learners in primary schools in rural India: An empirical analysis of alignments and misalignments - Wadmare, Pratik; Nanda, Mansi; Sabates, Ricardo; Sunder, Naveen; Wadhwa, Wilima (International Journal of Educational Research Open, 2022)
Teachers' perceptions of their students’ academic skills are crucial in enabling teaching at the appropriate level and shaping learning processes. We examine how accurate are teachers’ perceptions for low achieving students using data collected from around 1,800 primary school teachers across 848 schools in rural India. We find that around 40% of teachers inaccurately perceive that the low performing students in their classroom had already acquired foundational literacy, when they have not. Female teachers, para-teachers, and teachers with lower work burden are more likely to have accurate perceptions of low performing students. Our study highlights the need to work with teachers to ensure more realistic perceptions in order for pedagogical approaches like teaching at the right level to reach its intended impact.

Proliferation of Papers and Preprints During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 Pandemic: Progress or Problems With Peer Review? - Vlasschaert, Caitlyn; Topf, Joel M.; Hiremath, Swapnil (Advances in Chronic Kidney Disease, 2020)
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has spread exponentially throughout the world in a short period, aided by our hyperconnected world including global trade and travel. Unlike previous pandemics, the pace of the spread of the virus has been matched by the pace of publications, not just in traditional journals, but also in preprint servers. Not all publication findings are true, and sifting through the firehose of data has been challenging to peer reviewers, editors, as well as to consumers of the literature, that is, scientists, healthcare workers, and the general public. There has been an equally exponential rise in the public discussion on social media. Rather than decry the pace of change, we suggest the nephrology community should embrace it, making deposition of research into preprint servers the default, encouraging prepublication peer review more widely of such preprint studies, and harnessing social media tools to make these actions easier and seamless.

Perspectives and Metaphors of Learning: A Commentary on James Lester’s Narrative-Centered AI-Based Environments - Vivitsou, Marianna (AI in Learning: Designing the Future, 2023)
This commentary aims to discuss perspectives on narrative-centered learning and metaphors of AI-based learning environments. To this end, the commentary draws from James Lester’s keynote and an interview with a focus on the narrative element that underlies the use of AI in Learning. In both texts, Lester offers an account of the narrative-centered learning environments that he has been developing with his research group. One example of such environments is Crystal Island, an AI-based game for K-12 students learning science. Along with Crystal Island, more metaphors of learning emerge. Based on these, this chapter uses Paul Ricoeur’s narrative theory and metaphor theory to reflect on the role of characters and the narrative plot in relation to Lester’s visualization of the future of learning with AI-based technologies. In this process, new roles in AI-based learning are introduced. One such example is the role of drama manager. The drama manager is a novel metaphor in game-based learning. In addition, more conventional metaphors, such as the tutorial dialogue, are brought forward as well as technological metaphors. The multiplicity of metaphors have agency at the core, as connecting tissue. Agency, although not explicitly articulated in the keynote and the interview, is an all-encompassing metaphor in learning. As technological advancement shakes the boundaries of thinking about agency nowadays, new dynamic metaphors are needed in AI-based learning. Toward this direction, the commentary draws from new materialist and post-humanist thinkers to raise these issues and the need to take the narrative further.

How Much Can We Generalize From Impact Evaluations? - Vivalt, Eva (Journal of the European Economic Association, 2020)
Impact evaluations can help to inform policy decisions, but they are rooted in particular contexts and to what extent they generalize is an open question. I exploit a new data set of impact evaluation results and find a large amount of effect heterogeneity. Effect sizes vary systematically with study characteristics, with government-implemented programs having smaller effect sizes than academic or non-governmental organization-implemented programs, even controlling for sample size. I show that treatment effect heterogeneity can be appreciably reduced by taking study characteristics into account.

Large-scale comparison of bibliographic data sources: Scopus, Web of Science, Dimensions, Crossref, and Microsoft Academic - Visser, Martijn; van Eck, Nees Jan; Waltman, Ludo (arXiv:2005.10732 [cs], 2021)
We present a large-scale comparison of five multidisciplinary bibliographic data sources: Scopus, Web of Science, Dimensions, Crossref, and Microsoft Academic. The comparison considers scientific documents from the period 2008-2017 covered by these data sources. Scopus is compared in a pairwise manner with each of the other data sources. We first analyze differences between the data sources in the coverage of documents, focusing for instance on differences over time, differences per document type, and differences per discipline. We then study differences in the completeness and accuracy of citation links. Based on our analysis, we discuss strengths and weaknesses of the different data sources. We emphasize the importance of combining a comprehensive coverage of the scientific literature with a flexible set of filters for making selections of the literature.
