Although English has been taught in Saudia Arabia since 1958, the learning outcomes have not been satisfactory, hence the imperative to research new teaching methods. After conducting pilot studies of five mobile games with teachers and students, The English Bee, an original game specifically designed for this research project, was. selected. The study comprised two participant cohorts: one taught through The English Bee, the other a control group taught by traditional methods. It employed a mixed methodology of a number of collection techniques for both qualitative and quantitative data, namely, pre-and post-tests, focus group discussions, interviews and reflective essays. The results show that using mobile game helps to improve students’ achievements in learning EFL vocabulary, in terms of both the spelling of words and pronunciation recognition, as well as in enhancing their positive attitudes towards learning a foreign language. These results will assist other researchers, developers and educationalists worldwide, in choosing or programming games for learning both English and other foreign languages.","PeriodicalId":383683,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ‏The 3rd International Conference on Research in Teaching and Education","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124221885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The performance of the faculty plays an important role in academic institutions. Evaluating the faculty members' performance helps to gather critical information and discover new ways of improving them. In this paper, the proposed system can be used as a comprehensive system for evaluating, reporting and analyzing data with a promising audience by utilizing the visual analytics platform in using the educational mining techniques. Based on different parameters, the faculty teaching practice and performance are evaluated and projected by building models. The sample data is collected, preprocessed, and model learning is done using Decision Tree, Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) in this evaluation. Besides, an analysis of the variable importance for each classifier model is done to see which questions appear in determining the success of faculty members' performance. The idea of this paper is to indicate the effectiveness of Visual Analytics for Faculty Teaching Practice and Performance using Educational Mining Techniques on Student's Self-Reflection Tool (SSRT) survey.","PeriodicalId":383683,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ‏The 3rd International Conference on Research in Teaching and Education","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126218895","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, increasingly these scientists are taking on leadership roles in their organisations, considering that they are the most technically qualified. Mintz and Stoller (2014) observe that the nature of health organisations and how physicians develop primarily emphasises the physician as a lone leader, compounding the individual characteristics common to such scientists—self-directed, confident and independent—making collaboration with others an even greater challenge. Some studies suggest that scientists, in general, struggle with social skills. Given the social phenomena that is leadership, how such leaders develop, and the influence of context was the subject of this study. Using social identity theory and the theory of planned behaviour, we apply a constructionist lens to the question, \"how do contextual influences affect leader development among natural scientists?\" The research presented here emanates from the qualitative phase of a broader mixed-methods comparative study that examined perceptions and experiences of natural scientists on leader development in comparison with their non-scientist colleagues. Through thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews conducted among ten senior medical professionals currently holding leadership positions in health organisations, this article presents findings on the contextual factors that affect leader development. It then suggests approaches that leaders and policy elites in the medical field can advance to create an environment that engenders the learning of leadership. We found that leader-identity, self-efficacy, structural limitations and subjective norms, meaningfully attenuate the appetite for leader development activities.","PeriodicalId":383683,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ‏The 3rd International Conference on Research in Teaching and Education","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116268273","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
