Bakhshinategh, Behdad; Zaiane, Osmar R.; ElAtia, Samira; Ipperciel, Donald – Education and Information Technologies, 2018
Educational Data Mining (EDM) is the field of using data mining techniques in educational environments. There exist various methods and applications in EDM which can follow both applied research objectives such as improving and enhancing learning quality, as well as pure research objectives, which tend to improve our understanding of the learning…

Undergraduate Research and Students' Learning Outcomes: Digging into Different Disciplinary Contexts
Xi Hong; Xi Gao; Hamish Coates; Fei Guo – Higher Education Research and Development, 2024
Despite the importance of undergraduate research for student learning and development, not enough work has been done to clarify its effects in different disciplinary contexts. Using data from the China College Student Survey, this research adopts Becher and Trowler's theory of discipline classification to understand the relationship between…

Kamis, Ömer; Dogan, C. Deha – Journal of Education and Learning, 2018
This research aimed to compare the G and Phi coefficients estimated in Decision studies in Generalizability theory and obtained in actual cases for the same conditions of similar facets by using crossed design. The research was conducted as pure research on 120 individuals (students), six items and 12 raters. An achievement test composed of six…

Arthur, Linet; Cox, Elaine – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2014
Traditionally there has been a tension between evaluation research and so-called pure research which has resulted in evaluation research seldom being recognized by the UK Research Assessment Exercises. The newly configured Research Excellence Framework (REF) will use similar criteria to judge research, notwithstanding the introduction of…

Kuteeva, Maria; McGrath, Lisa – Applied Linguistics, 2015
Recent years have seen an interest in the generic structure of empirical research articles across a variety of disciplines. However, significantly less attention has been given to theoretical articles. This study aims to begin to address this imbalance by presenting the results of an investigation into the organizational and rhetorical structure…

Harsh, Joseph; Esteb, John J.; Maltese, Adam V. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2017
National calls in science, technology, engineering, and technology education reform efforts have advanced the wide-scale engagement of students in undergraduate research for the preparation of a workforce and citizenry able to attend to the challenges of the 21st century. Awareness of the potential benefits and costs of these experiences has led…

Colleret, Maxime; Gingras, Yves – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2022
This study analyses the patenting activities of university science and engineering professors in Canada between 1920 and 1975. Unlike most studies on commercial activities in academia, which typically focus on the post-1980 period and on university practices, we focus on the pre-1980 period and on the individual decisions of professors to patent…

Elby, Andrew; Yerdelen-Damar, Sevda – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2020
[This paper is part of the Focused Collection on Curriculum Development: Theory into Design.] In the "standard" physics education research curriculum-development model, researchers are cast primarily as producers of curricula and instructors are cast primarily consumers, i.e., adopters and adapters. We illustrate a complementary model in…

Wiliam, Dylan – Psychology of Education Review, 2019
In this "Open Dialogue: Peer Response," the author notes that in the initial paper, "Contributions of Educational Psychology to Understanding Student Learning: What Has Been Discovered - What More Could Be Done?" Entwistle lays out a useful summary of the way that psychology has contributed to an understanding of student…

Harsh, Joseph A. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2016
Undergraduate research (UR) is a vetted educational tool that is commonly perceived to prepare students for entering graduate school and careers in STEM fields; however, scholarly attention to date has largely relied on self-report data, which may limit inferences about the causal effects on student outcomes. In light of this, recent calls have…

McGrath, Lisa; Kuteeva, Maria – English for Specific Purposes, 2012
Recent ESP research into academic writing has shown how writers convey their stance and interact with readers across different disciplines. However, little research has been carried out into the disciplinary writing practices of the pure mathematics academic community from an ESP genre analysis perspective. This study begins to address this gap by…

Orsini, Muhsin Michael; Wyrick, David L.; Milroy, Jeffrey J. – Evaluation and Program Planning, 2012
Blending high-quality and rigorous research with pure evaluation practice can often be best accomplished through thoughtful collaboration. The evaluation of a high school drug prevention program (All Stars Senior) is an example of how perceived competing purposes and methodologies can coexist to investigate formative and summative outcome…

Arthurs, Leilani A. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2019
Discipline-based education research (DBER) conducted by faculty within geoscience departments can address identified needs in undergraduate geoscience education. This study explores the evolution of undergraduate geoscience education research (GER) from 1985 to 2016, primarily in terms of the types of published research and secondarily in terms of…

Bešic, Edvina; Paleczek, Lisa; Rossmann, Peter; Krammer, Mathias; Gasteiger-Klicpera, Barbara – International Journal of Inclusive Education, 2020
This study addressed the concept of 'intersectionality' relating to refugee status and disability. It examined whether differences in attitudes depending on disability type (physical disability vs. behavioural disorders) are present and how the refugee status and disability in girls interact to influence attitudes. The attitudes of 1377…
