This research aims to study the effect of adventure-based learning on students’ basic statistics achievement, critical thinking, and leadership skills. The quasi-experimental method was used in this study through quantitative research design. The sample consisted of 30 year 1 students of one of the Teacher Education Institutes. The institute itself determined this group of students. They are in the context of an intact group. The data were analyzed inferentially by using MANOVA. The results of the MANOVA test analysis showed that there was a significant difference in the mean post-test between groups for the achievement of Basic Statistics and leadership skills. At the same time, test analysis showed insignificant results for critical thinking skills. Thus, there was no significant difference in the mean post-test of critical thinking skills between the treatment group and the control group. There is a significant difference in the mean of the second post test between groups for basic statistics achievement and critical thinking. While test analysis showed insignificant results for leadership skills.

While impostor syndrome has attracted considerable scholarly interest in the Global North, in the context of Kazakhstan, it was mainly discussed on popular social outlets. This paper explores whether female leaders in higher education in Kazakhstan have experienced impostor feelings and if so, how -if at all- they overcame it. To explore it, a narrative approach was used to interview ten female leaders working in universities of Kazakhstan. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to explore the participants’ experience. This first study on Imposter Syndrome in Kazakhstan shows that almost all women leaders face these problems. Based on their experience of impostor syndrome, the participants provided recommendations to help cope with it.

In the field of higher education in Ecuador, there is a phenomenon where students abandon the career, they were initially enrolled in. This research article aims to identify the determining factors that influence dropout, analyzing sociodemographic variables and economic, technological, institutional, and academic variables. The methodology used is action research built from educational practice. A survey was used to address several factors applied to 260 students of the second, fourth, and seventh levels of undergraduate study at a private institution. As a result, it was found that the most determining factor for a student to abandon their university career in the distance mode, with 72.31%, is the economic factor. Finally, it is concluded that students' permanence is affected mainly by socioeconomic aspects, which cause economic resources, illness, lack of time, and academic performance to be the most representative factors when deciding whether to remain or abandon a university career. This information increases the bibliography that deals with student behavior to search for alternatives to work on students' permanence.

This work analyzes the essential aspects of Psychopedagogy as a scientific discipline and educational psychologists’ main fields of action. It is theoretical research developed with the hermeneutic method. The problem identification reveals excessive divergences in Psychopedagogy’s conceptions and other aspects. In the empirical phase, little difference is observed between Psychopedagogy and psycho-pedagogical practice; Psychopedagogy has been generally and loosely linked to formal education, to unique or specific educational needs, and learning problems in the school context. Regarding the fields of action of educational psychologists, the existing information is minimal. In the interpretative phase, the findings in the theoretical, methodological, and praxeological order reveal that Psychopedagogy has as its object of study the learning and development of the human being; it directs the psycho-pedagogical practice given from the principles of prevention, development, and social action. Hence, the fields of action of psychopedagogy are all those contexts in which human learning takes place, highlighting formal education and integral development; family and interpersonal relationships; health and body care; business, labor, and professional development; and the meaning of life and values, all of which is supported by the fact that human beings, as social beings by essence, learn, develop and transform throughout life.

The COVID-19 pandemic has made it mandatory for all university courses to be taught using online technologies. One of the major challenges experienced by Lecturers has been how to make students responsive and engaged in online environments as opposed to face-to-face classrooms. This study seeks to investigate how extended curriculum programme academics design their online extended curriculum courses such that they can promote active engagement in their online classrooms. The research design adopted for this study falls within the interpretative paradigm, embracing a qualitative research approach within a case study methodology. For data collection purposes, three courses and nine Lecturers, three from each faculty were selected for each of these faculties because of their engagement in online learning and hybrid learning initiatives, making nine courses. Two theoretical frameworks underpinned this study: the SAMR Model and the Technology integration matrix (TIM). The researchers argue that it is imperative that academic development supports and enhances the development and agency of academics in designing and creating active and engaging hybrid or online environments.

Attention and awareness are complexly interconnected and are conceived to be the two crucial cognitive components for a holistic learning experience. However, this paper claims that teaching and learning instructional materials, educational taxonomies, and evaluation strategies have not given due importance to cultivating these two cognitive components for effective learning. To substantiate its claim, this paper aims to offer a review of a range of educational taxonomies to foreground how two of the most crucial cognitive components integrally connected to critical thinking abilities are not discussed. The paper argues that a study of this kind will enable us to identify the gaps hindering the goal of achieving the concept of critical pedagogy. The paper will also offer an in-depth review of literature from the domains of cognitive science, neuroanatomical science, and language education to assert the significance of attention and awareness. The paper's originality lies in its ability to propose an eclectic learner-centric taxonomy that could be adopted for achieving the goals of critical pedagogy.

This article discusses a qualitative case study involving eight mathematics teachers in Brazil. The study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of a training course that combined Lesson Study and Criteria of Didactical Suitability in developing reflective competence in teachers. Lesson Study is a professional development strategy that encourages teachers to collaborate and reflect on their teaching practices, while Criteria of Didactical Suitability is a tool that guides teachers’ reflection. The study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of Criteria of Didactical Suitability in enhancing reflection skills and to assess the participants’ perception of its usefulness. The analysis revealed that participating teachers improved their reflection skills, specifically by utilizing Criteria of Didactical Suitability more effectively in the third phase of the course. However, the study has limitations, such as being conducted virtually and in a specific context. Overall, this study highlights the potential of combining Lesson Study and Criteria of Didactical Suitability in developing reflective competence in teachers. Further research can explore the efficacy of this approach in different contexts.

This study explores differences in school achievement levels regarding leadership and work culture in public elementary schools in Pekanbaru. This study took a population of public elementary schools comprising achieving and non-achieving schools with 58 samples of teachers and staff. This study compares the achievements of elementary schools consisting of the National Student Art Contest Festival, the National Student Sports Olympiad, and the National Science Olympiad. The variables measured are moral leadership, change leadership, and work culture in schools using a questionnaire instrument, quantitative approach design survey type (Creswell & Creswell, 2018), and school achievement is used on documentation with comparative descriptive analysis. The results of the study found that moral leadership, change leadership, and work culture differed significantly Sig.(2-tailed) 0.0017, 0.027, and 0.015< 0.05 in of high-achieving schools and non-achieving. The analysis shows that the application of moral leadership, change leadership, and work culture in high-achieving schools is betterthan non-achieving schools. The implication is that schools need to apply moral leadership, change leadership and work culture properly.

This article is devoted to solving the problem of accumulation, systematization, and translation of the practices of using digital educational technologies in municipal educational organizations. The solution to this problem was implemented by implementing the project “Organization of a system of digital education practices in the urban district of the City of Yelets” in 2022. The project was aimed at involving at least 350 managing and teaching staff, 4000 students in the active practice of using digital educational technologies in educational organizations of the urban district of Yelets (Lipetsk region, Russian Federation) by the end of 2022. To achieve the goal, the implementation of a system of digital education practices in educational organizations of the urban district of the city of Yelets was determined. Continuity and concession are key features of this system.
Consequently, the stakeholders are preschool educational organizations, public educational organizations, organizations of additional education, secondary vocational education, and higher education. This system involved the use of such organizational forms as a resource center, a municipal network platform, a pivotal school, and an author’s school, within which approbation, tuning, and dissemination of the experience of using software products, the LECTA digital educational platform, the digital educational environment “Mobile e-education” and directions 3D modeling, digital video and robotics. The key results of the conducted research were quantitative and qualitative indicators. The main problem that has blocked the adoption of digital education tools among the pedagogical community is the belief that they are ineffective compared to full-time education.

The results of a diagnostic L2 reading test applied to first-semester students at a higher education institution in Colombia demonstrated that most of the population entered the university with a lower reading comprehension level than the required for the entrance to tertiary education. According to MEN. The results gathered were categorized taking into account the CEFR levels (B2, B1, A2, A1, and –A1). This test’s results revealed that the 85% of the evaluated population was classified at level A1; the 35% was placed at level A2; and the last 8% was classified at level –A1; on the other hand, there were no students placed in the higher levels (B1, B2). It is observed that most of the participants were place in level A1, according to the CEFR, which means that these students lack the required standards to start college studies, regarding L2 reading skills. In order to face this situation, some university professors in this context were also observed with the intention of identifying the positive practices in terms of reading comprehension and the chances to improve.
