Multimodal representations play crucial role in students' learning process that students communicate their ideas by using representations. The main aim of this research is to determine the effects of multimodal representations on students' science learning. Quasi-experimental with pre-test and post-test design was used in this study. This study was conducted with total of 35 students that were 7th graders of a public middle school located in Istanbul province in Turkey. Experimental group (n=19) was taught science lessons according to multimodal representations. They performed writing tasks by using multimodal representations. Control group (n=16) was taught science lessons according to National Ministry of Education's existing program. The data was gathered by Science Achievement Test that was used as a pre-test and post-test. Results of the study indicated that there is a meaningful difference between pretests and posttests of science achievement test scores in both experimental and control group. Thus, findings supported that teaching science to students with multimodal representations contributed to their science learning. [For the full proceedings, see ED626668.]

Competition refers to a phenomenon that can affect and direct observable human behaviour. Competitiveness can be a triggering factor in achieving success and focusing on the target. The individual competitiveness scale can provide an opportunity to observe and evaluate students participating in various competitions within the scope of exams. This study seeks to examine the individual competitiveness perceptions of the students who take special talent exams according to some demographic variables. This quantitative study was carried out in a descriptive survey model. The sample of the study consists of 218 students who participated in the special talent exams held in September 2021 at Kahramanmaras Sutçu Imam University Faculty of Sports Sciences. Data were analysed using the statistical software program Jamovi 1.6.12. Arithmetic mean and standard deviation values were determined for data analysis while t-Test and One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) were used to determine the differentiation status of participant views in terms of demographic variables, and Post-Hoc tests were used to determine the groups with difference for the significant F value. As a result of the research, it was observed that there were significant relationships between the participants' Individual Competitiveness Scale and the CPT (Core Proficiency Test/Exam) score, age, sports branch and weekly work-out variables according to the &quot;Enjoyment of Competition&quot; sub-scale. According to the ' Competition Avoidance' sub-scale, there were significant relationships in terms of the CPT score, age, and weekly work-out number variables and that there was no significant relationship in terms of sports branch variable. As a result, students' individual competitiveness perceptions were determined in terms of different variables. [For the full proceedings, see ED626668.]

The COVID-19 lockdown has had emotional and psychological effects on students. The lockdown also compromised the ability of educational institutions to support social-emotional learning (SEL). The educational institutions stumble upon many challenges during that period as the semester continued while the students and teachers didn't arrive to the institution. This qualitative phenomenological study analyzed seven interviews in the interpretive approach of pre-service teachers. The pre-service teachers learned via the Book Creator, which is a digital platform for creating and sharing digital books. Therefore, we asked: What characteristics of social-emotional learning were expressed, according to pre-service teachers' perception who used Book Creator? The findings indicate three themes: social learning, ethics in learning and humanistic assessment. The students indicated that proper use of the Book Creator can bridge the complexity of teaching and learning during the pandemic and integrate the social-emotional learning principles while emphasizing the importance of ethics in learning.

Supervision of doctoral students is challenging because it is a complex process in which the relationship between doctoral students and supervisors is formed. A good supervision program involves a relationship that depends on certain circumstances, frameworks, prior experiences of supervisors, personalities of supervisors and doctoral students, etc. The supervision relationship requires a holistic approach that needs to be rethought from the perspective of intersectionality, as the perception of supervision tasks by supervisors and doctoral students is generally inadequate. This study aims to examine intersectionality in doctoral supervision in terms of the interrelatedness of inequalities based on identities such as gender, epistemology, culture, class, and sexual orientation from the perspective of supervisors. The goal is to provide an objective look at the complex scene of doctoral supervision today. A conceptual framework is presented to demonstrate the intersectional perspective in relation to the interrelationship of inequalities in the process of doctoral supervision.

A major challenge in economics and financial education is frequently the attempt to explain the disparities in household consumption spending. Household income determines the quality and quantity of goods and services that a household could consume. The amount of income available to a household is a major determinant of the disparities in household consumption spending. Although the role of income in household consumption spending is widely documented, other economic factors also contribute to the disparities such as accumulated wealth, price, taste, and preference of the household. Interestingly, these economic factors or economic knowledge are learnable and acquired from basic economic education. Consequently, this paper assumes that basic economic education knowledge predicts household consumption spending disparities. A presurvey of 120 out of 150 individuals participating in professional development training indicated that they have difficulties living financially well as compared to some of their friends with the same or less salaries and similar family responsibilities. After participating in basic economics education classes, a post-survey from the same participants was analyzed using SPSS multiple regression. The result from the data analysis and the progressions of the paper revealed that economic education significantly predicts household consumption spending disparities.

Use of force by police are gaining deserved attention and scrutiny. Citizens wonder if police use of force is always proportional and necessary. Even though police organizations routinely train officers on proper use of force, how can the public know if use of force policies and training procedures adequately address use of force? With this manuscript, a longitudinal examination of policy instruction on use of deadly force by police begins. Two central questions endured: how do retired officers perceive the effectiveness of deadly force training and how do retired officers perceive training on critical thinking and discretion? Through the course of interviews with retired officers, themes such as, enhanced training, critical thinking development, and proper use of discretion appeared. These areas emerged as most important in avoiding improper use of deadly force by police. We conclude that reality-based training, evidence-based critical thinking skills, and development of proper discretion are advised to maximize proper use of force by police and gain citizens' confidence that force used is defensible and supportable.

This study examined the factors of learning behaviors in digital-learning-material reader that predict university students' productive participation identified by social presence indicators in online collaborative learning. Data were collected from 76 first-year university students, including learning behaviors in digital learning-material readers, and frequency of each social presence indicator classified by coding discussion scripts with automated text classification. The results of the stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that the learning behavior of drawing red markers, highlighting important content predicts social presence. Furthermore, the study's findings showed that different learning behaviors predict different social presence indicators, which are related to metacognition and critical thinking.
Too Many Dull Words Exceed the Limits of Visual Perception: The Effects of Clutter and Colour on Learning

When too much visual stimuli is present, the phenomenon of clutter is known to degrade an individual's perception across a variety of domains, ranging from completing search tasks incorrectly, to decreasing reading speed when letters are too close together. However, research is lacking as to whether the negative effects of clutter impact learning when too many words are visible at any one given time. Furthermore, colour has been implicated in affecting clutter. Thus, the present study created a recognition experiment whereby 42 participants had to learn target words that were presented in black or red font and positioned amongst no clutter, clutter words (distractor words surrounded the target), and clutter non-words (sequence of random letters surrounded the target). Results found that words learned in isolation were identified faster and significantly more accurately than words learned in both forms of clutter. Although red target words did not eliminate the negative effects of clutter, red words did show a trend towards higher accuracy of recognition compared to black words. These results would appear to be explained by existing clutter theories that state the limits of attentional resources and short-term memory cannot process excess visual stimuli. These findings have real-world implications for establishing optimal reading formats to improve learning.

The analysis of the results of scientific research has revealed the necessity to track the level of anxiety of a student while studying aspects of information security in a particular subject area. And in accordance with the results, it was necessary to justify the choice of methods for management and content of information security training in order to minimize the negative impact on the psychological state of a child of middle school age. The purpose of the research is to determine the impact of educational elements from a specific subject area related to information security guaranteeing on the level of anxiety of secondary schools students. The authors identified the need to assess the level of anxiety of students while studying aspects of information security in a particular subject area and proposed tools for tracking the level of anxiety. In the middle school, during the formation of a comprehensive idea of professional activities in the field of information security, especially at the pre-profile stage, an approach that forms the basis for the formation of the content of information security training is substantiated. It combines the knowledge from a wide range of different sciences for teaching secondary school students. The study shows that the level of situational anxiety of secondary school students while studying aspects of information security in a particular subject area can increase due to the natural reaction of the body, adapting to new potential threats for it. It was experimentally established that the level of personal anxiety as a result of assimilation of new knowledge about information security did not change both before studying the educational elements of information security in a particular subject area, and after studying them.
