Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to changes in consumption habits and irrational consumption, which also exhibit a strong tendency towards family economic education (FEE) in shaping student economic behavior and economic irrationality (IR). The novelty of this study lies in the exploration of the relationship between FEE and students’ economic behavior mediated by basic economic (BE) understanding, which is still under-explored in the context of economic education in Indonesia. This study uses a quantitative approach with structural equation modeling (SEM). A total of 385 students of economics or economic education study programs are spread across 38 provinces in Indonesia. The finding of the research indicate that FEE has a significant but relatively weak positive effect on students’ BE understanding. In addition, FEE directly increases students’ irrationality, as well as BE understanding, which also turns out to contribute positively to such irrational behavior. This finding implicitly shows that the delivery of intensive FEE information does not always have a positive impact but can actually strengthen IR in students. Thus, this study emphasizes the need for a more careful and selective approach in FEE to reduce students’ irrational behavior.

Abstract

Inclusive education (IE) is increasingly recognized as a key priority in modern educational systems; however, in Kazakhstan, there is limited evidence on the factors influencing teachers’ attitudes and readiness to implement it. This study explores public school teachers’ attitudes toward inclusive education (TATIE) and examines how personal, professional, and institutional factors affect these attitudes. A survey of 638 teachers from Almaty schools was conducted using a validated instrument, and correlation and regression analyses were employed to identify significant predictors. The results indicate that gender, teaching experience (TE), frequency of contact with students with disabilities (SWD), perceived school support, and participation in specialized training significantly influence teachers’ attitudes. Positive attitudes were particularly associated with direct professional experience and strong institutional support, highlighting the importance of targeted professional development and school-level measures. This study contributes to the literature by providing a comprehensive quantitative analysis specific to the Kazakhstani context and offers practical insights to guide policy and enhance the effective implementation of inclusive practices, ultimately improving the quality of education for students with special educational needs.

Abstract

This study explores how educators and students in Philippine secondary schools conceptualize global citizenship education (GCE) and understand their roles in advancing the sustainable development goals (SDGs). Despite its prominence in global education agendas, GCE remains inconsistently understood across local contexts. Using a qualitative research design, in-depth interviews were conducted with 21 teachers and students in Surigao del Sur. Thematic analysis revealed seven interconnected themes: i) holistic education: framing global citizenship beyond academics; ii) cultural sensitivity and respect for diversity; iii) active engagement and global awareness; iv) education as a channel for sustainable development; v) becoming a global citizen as a personal journey; vi) technology and global connectivity; and vii) teaching values for global responsibility. Findings indicate that while both groups support GCE, their interpretations are shaped by lived experiences, institutional conditions, and cultural environments. Teachers highlighted intentional instruction and moral formation, whereas students emphasized identity development, participation, and global awareness. However, gaps remain in critical reflection and structural understanding. In response, this study introduces the contextualized empowerment framework, a strategic model that integrates civic action, values, identity, and digital literacy to guide localized and ethical implementation of GCE. The framework offers actionable insights for curriculum development, teacher training, and educational policy reforms.

Abstract

The research investigated the function of academic self-regulation as a mediator in the correlation between mindful attention awareness and emotional self-efficacy. A quantitative questionnaire-based study approach was used. A total 647 undergraduate participants (77.1% female), aged 18–24 (74.5%), completed self-report questionnaires, including the mindful attention awareness scale (MAAS), the academic self-regulation scale (ASRS), and the emotional self-efficacy scale (ESES). The proposed model demonstrated acceptable global fit based on the two-index criteria applied in this study, with RMSEA meeting the ≤0.06 threshold and SRMR meeting the ≤0.09 threshold; based on the data, the model appears to be suitable. The findings indicated statistically significant relationships between mindfulness and the subscales of academic self-regulation: self-instruction and self-evaluation. Academic self-regulation showed significant path coefficients with emotional self-efficacy: self-planning, self-monitoring, and self-reaction were statistically significantly associated with using and managing one’s own emotions and perceiving emotions through facial expressions. Self-planning and self-monitoring were statistically significantly associated with dealing with emotions in others. Self-planning, self-monitoring, self-instruction, and self-reaction were statistically significant in their association with identifying and understanding one’s own emotions. Academic self-regulation elucidates the correlation between mindfulness and emotional self-efficacy. Emotional self-efficacy and well-being can be bolstered by improving mindfulness and self-regulation.

Abstract

This study interrogates why teachers persist in the Philippines’ resource-constrained, conflict-affected “last-mile” schools, reframing retention beyond deficit narratives of burnout and attrition. Using a descriptive phenomenological design guided by Colaizzi, we conducted semi-structured Zoom interviews with 15 public-school teachers in geographically isolated municipalities of Lanao del Norte and Lanao del Sur between September and November 2024, supplemented by brief reflective journals and supported by member checking and an audit trail to secure trustworthiness. Analysis reveals persistence as a moral-relational practice braided from duty to students’ futures, faith-inflected vocation, thick bonds of belonging with colleagues and communities, and a professional identity sustained by visible learner impact and craft growth, continually negotiated against material scarcity, bureaucratic load, and ambient insecurity through pragmatic coping and family responsibility. These findings challenge rational-choice explanations by showing that staying endures less through marginal incentives than through reinforced meaning infrastructures and everyday dignifying leadership. The study contributes a humanistic account of professional endurance in fragile settings and suggests policy directions that prioritize localized psychosocial support, recognition, and paperwork rationalization to strengthen the ecologies that already hold teachers in place.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between academic performance and financial literacy among 618 undergraduate students at Rangsit University, drawn from a population of 28,068 students using convenience sampling between June and December 2024. A mixed-methods design was employed, integrating Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD-aligned) questionnaires with in-depth interviews of 10 students to capture both quantitative patterns and qualitative perspectives. Statistical analyses at the 0.05 level indicated that academic year, grade point average-cumulative (GPAX), field of study, financial education background, income source, and income level significantly predicted financial literacy outcomes. Students with higher GPAX showed stronger financial knowledge and behavior, although financial attitudes were slightly weaker. Health-science students demonstrated the highest literacy levels, followed by those in business, engineering, and social sciences. Income level influenced financial behavior but showed limited effects on attitudes, while prior financial education modestly improved knowledge with minimal behavioral impact. More than half of participants exhibited weak understanding of compound interest, limiting long-term saving capability. Insights from interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) and digital-learning perspectives underscore the need for context-responsive and technology-enhanced financial education. Therefore, the findings highlight how academic and socioeconomic factors shape financial literacy and offer guidance for developing personalized curricula and digital interventions aligned with sustainable development goals (SDGs) 1, 4, 8, and 10.

Abstract

This qualitative study explores how literature educators in higher education design and implement pedagogical practices for teaching queer literature to foster gender diversity awareness in a Philippine state university context. Drawing on focus group discussions (FGDs) with 22 educators across multiple campuses, guided by data saturation and reflexive practices, the study identifies a framework comprising four interrelated domains: literary selection, teaching model integration, learning activities, and assessment strategies. Educators purposefully select authentic and culturally relevant queer texts, employ integrative language, cultural, and personal growth models, and design aesthetic, analytical, and reflective learning tasks that engage students cognitively, affectively, and performatively. Teaching through this framework supports students’ critical interrogation of norms, reflexive meaning-making, and negotiation of identity and difference, operationalizing queer theoretical concepts such as heteronormativity, performativity, and power dynamics. The study advances queer pedagogy by positioning literature as a transformative mechanism for critical consciousness, inclusivity, and identity awareness. Implications are discussed for curriculum design, teacher education, and inclusive policy in culturally conservative contexts.

Abstract

In some educational contexts, English for specific purposes (ESP) is perceived to better align with learners’ specific goals compared to general English (GE). In Morocco, higher education institutions have been increasingly offering ESP courses despite the little research on the extent to which those courses actually reflect an ESP culture. This research has so far focused only on individual initiatives or particular institutions. This study, however, set itself the more ambitious aim of investigating the existence of an ESP culture in six different Moroccan higher education institutions and identifying the constraints that hindered the development of this culture. The study used document analysis and semi-structured interviews as data collection instruments. A total of 63 English course documents from students were subjected to qualitative content analysis, followed by a thematic analysis of data collected from six interviews with English instructors. The data identified both ESP and GE approaches across the institutions in the study. However, ESP seemed to be higher in highly competitive and interdisciplinary institutions, whereas GE was higher in less competitive institutions with similar majors. GE practices persisted due to revealed challenges that hamper effective ESP implementation. These findings suggest that Moroccan higher education institutions generally lack a strong ESP culture. The apparent importance of ESP in Morocco does not extend to the level of adopting an explicitly articulated ESP curriculum.

Abstract

Commitment plays a significant role in shaping engagement and self-regulation in learning, yet no standard tool exists to measure students’ learning commitment, especially in mathematics. This study aimed to develop the first validated scale for mathematical commitment. Using an exploratory-sequential mixed methods design, the study began with qualitative in-depth interviews (IDIs) to create the first version of the student mathematical commitment scale (SMCS) with 79 items. The quantitative phase employed exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses to establish the scale’s validity and reliability, resulting in a refined 24-item version, with four confirmed dimensions. These dimensions: strategic learning engagement (SLE), affective learning engagement (ALE), learning engagement resilience (LER), and positive learning mindset (PLM) provide a holistic view of mathematical commitment, encompassing the cognitive, emotional, and psychological aspects of students’ learning behavior. The findings provide a foundational understanding of mathematical commitment, suggesting the practical use of the scale in curriculum design, interventions, and student support with the goal of improving student learning outcomes.

Abstract

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in education has garnered heightened interest, particularly in facilitating student-centered learning. This research conducts a thorough evaluation of theoretical models and empirical investigations about the implementation of AI in secondary education from 2020 to 2025. The 15 high-quality publications were selected from the Scopus and Web of Science (WoS) databases according to the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) procedure and analyzed thematically. The findings indicated that the present incorporation of AI in education predominantly depends on 11 fundamental theoretical frameworks, such as self-determination theory (SDT), theory of planned behavior (TPB), technology acceptance model (TAM), unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT), and sociocultural theory (SCT). For example, SDT emphasizes students’ motivation and psychological needs, the TPB explains behavioral intentions for using AI, and TAM/UTAUT is used to explain students’ willingness and behavior in using AI tools. However, the application of AI still faces numerous challenges, including anxiety and ethical dilemmas. This study clarifies the correspondence between theory and practice, providing a theoretical foundation for educators to conduct instructional design and support work, and offering a reference for policymakers to develop AI education standards and allocate resources.
