Implementation analyses conducted as part of impact studies can help educators know whether a tested intervention is likely to be a good fit for their own settings. This guide can help researchers design and conduct these kinds of analyses. The guide provides steps and recommendations about ways to specify implementation research questions, assess…

Psychological and psychoeducational evaluation reports are often criticized for being too long and difficult to understand. Nonetheless, these reports inform, and are often required for, high-stakes educational decisions. Very little prior research has documented whether general and special educators read the entirety of such reports. This study…

Purpose: The implementation and reporting of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) is one of the emerging challenges for higher education institutions (HEIs), but the lack of well-defined reporting structures and topics for this sector makes it difficult to map and evaluate HEI performance in relation to 2030 Agenda. This study aims to assess…

In this article, we examine how…

Purpose: Reading disability (RD) is frequently associated with deficits in auditory processing (i.e., processing speech and non-linguistic sounds). Several hypotheses exist regarding the link between RD and auditory processing, but none fully account for the range/variety of auditory impairments reported in the literature. These impairments have…

Self-reported dietary intake is commonly used to inform policy; however, memory-based reports are subject to error. Our aim was to examine dietary reporting errors using a repeated-events framework. Participants (N = 102) completed a 3-day food diary and 10 days later recalled what they had consumed on one self-nominated day and one…

Purpose: This study aims to identify how literature has addressed sustainability reporting in universities over time and determine traceable patterns and trends. Design/methodology/approach: A comprehensive systematic review protocol of the Emerald Insight, Web of Science, Science Direct, Scopus, Springer Link and Wiley Online Library databases…

This article considers starting with an existing SIMIODE modeling scenario [Winkel, B. (2015). 1-031-CoolIt-ModelingScenario. SIMIODE (Version 2.0). "QUBES Educational Resources." https://doi.org/10.25334/3WG8-EC31] that develops Newton's law of cooling by considering data on the cooling of a beaker of water in a room, and expanding upon…

Graphs are an important component in physics laboratory reports. We have noticed that our students have difficulty selecting the "scale" and the "starting value" for an axis while generating graphs on graph paper. Recommendations concerning convenient scales and starting values are found in textbooks, laboratory manuals, and…
