Abstract

It is generally expected that the students are supposed to gain an engaging and enriching experience throughout their journey of higher education. The educational institutions have to take up the responsibility to ensure that students are engaged meaningfully and are in a state of well-being. However, in the present scenario, students at colleges and universities have started to feel alienated from the campus life. Research shows that alienation levels are rising among the youth. Factors like stress, coping mechanism, restrictive parental behavior, peer pressure, academic performance, and organizational culture have an impact on alienation among the students. This study attempts to understand the relationship between student alienation and organizational culture in an educational institution. The study employed a descriptive correlational design and collected data from 600 under graduate students studying in a university. The study used student alienation scale and organizational culture assessment instrument to collect the survey data. Study revealed that there is a negative correlation between student alienation and organizational culture. There were 30% variation in student alienation is explained by different types of organizational culture. Clan culture reduces student alienation compared to hierarchy culture. The researchers urge for further research to identify ideal organizational cultures that can promote student engagement and student well-being.

Abstract

This scoping review aims to provide an overview of empirical studies on worldwide museum visit intervention in K-12 education. The study employed Mendeley citation software to identify the articles in the database. A meta-analysis PRISMA statement is used for reporting the items. Out of 135 possibly rich articles, the present study reviewed 18 studies that met the inclusion criteria and were subjected to descriptive and content analyses published between 2017 and 2021. Most of the studies are experimental and from primary school contexts. It is revealed that science is the subject matter context majority of the studies, but philosophy, disaster management, language, and environmental science are also represented. The content analysis resulted in the following learning and social outcomes. It states that social outcome is explored chiefly, followed by learning outcome. The findings indicate that museum visit intervention positively impacts students learning and social outcome. The review also identifies the need for further research on museum visit intervention in the Asia Pacific region.

Abstract

Mainly, research has explored pre-service teachers’ perspectives toward cooperative learning within face-to-face teaching. However, in a postpandemic scenario, previous research has yet to effectively explore preservice teachers’ (PSTs) perspectives toward online cooperative learning (OCL) in teacher education programs. So, recognizing the gap in the literature, this paper aims to explore the perspectives of PSTs towards OCL. The researchers employed a qualitative research design for the present study. The researchers conducted semi-structured interviews with 10 PSTs who underwent OCL during the pandemic. These PSTs may possess digital proficiency, virtual collaboration abilities, flexibility in evolving educational environments, and an enhanced understanding of online cooperative learning methodologies within modern education. Researchers employed a thematic analysis to analyze the qualitative data obtained. The various themes that emerged from the study are perceived benefits of OCL, challenges to OCL, technological proficiency, learning strategies and support, and building a supportive online learning community. Future researchers may contribute to advancing effective online learning practices by gaining a deeper understanding of pre-service teachers’ perspectives towards OCL through research on a larger scale, including various teacher education programs in various countries.

Abstract

This study examines the COVID-19 experiences of K-12 school campus directors, especially in terms of building and grounds, transportation, and food services from the Midwestern United States. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed to online education mode and implemented safety protocols to ensure equitable access to K-12 education. School directors play a crucial role in United States’s school administration. The researchers used a mixed method research design and purposive sampling. The sample included 9 school-grounds directors, 34 food service directors, and 31 transportation directors. A 5-point Likert-type questionnaire was prepared by the researchers to collect the relevant data for the study. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and thematic analysis. While revealing their experiences, various school directors mentioned that key challenges are reliable sources of information for them to work, inequities in resource allocation, finance allocation, and lack of professional training. The survey highlighted the need for several resources, including federal and state funding, teacher professional development programs, and community partnerships that support K-12 education. School directors addressed challenges regarding transportation, buildings, grounds, and food services during COVID-19. The study revealed the need for systemic policy changes and communication resources to create resilient and adaptive learning environments for K-12 education. Eventually, the study recommended that policymakers and educational leaders bring changes to K-12 infrastructure to withstand crises like COVID-19.

Abstract

This study investigates parental perceptions of school climate, teachers’ accountability, and students’ academic performance, as well as the relationship among these three factors. The descriptive research uses the demographic background of parents as a stratified sampling method to collect primary data. The statistical procedure shows that Pearson’s product-moment correlations between school climate and teachers’ accountability affect the academic achievement, with effect sizes of r=0.632, r=.646, which significantly correlate with each other. Regression analysis reveals the variability of the effect sizes of school climate and teachers’ accountability on academic achievement, with the values of β=0.070 and β=0.115. The independent variable, school climate and teachers’ accountability, explains 45.4% of the variability of academic performance of the students in early childhood care and education. The present study recommends that training teachers would link their accountability and measures to track the supportive climate of school to improve the student’s academic performance. Future research should conduct longitudinal studies to examine how relationships between school climates and teachers’ accountability affect different student populations and their academic performance.
