New policies, curricula, pedagogy, assessment practices, accountability mechanisms, and legislation were implemented in an education revolution, to modernize Kazakh education and build human capital for economic prosperity. The development and use of educational research is a component of these reforms but little is known about practitioners’ understanding of and engagement with educational research. This qualitative study employed individual in-depth interviews with ten educational practitioners in secondary and higher education to address the knowledge gap. The findings suggest that practitioner understandings of research remain underdeveloped. While some practitioners both consume and produce research to improve practice and institutional decision-making, issues of access to research, the challenge of time within workload and perceptions of the limited relevance of externally produced research continue to be barriers to more extensive utilization of research. Further research is being undertaken to explore this issue with policymakers and researchers. The findings may be used to improve the mobilization of research to policy and practice, especially in other post-soviet contexts.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47344,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Education Review","volume":"25 1","pages":"213 - 227"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135368483","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Toward this end, this study sought to investigate the influence of the LM of learners on their AEG in online classrooms and if and how this link is mediated by achievement emotions (e.g., anxiety and enjoyment). The results of partial least squares path modeling revealed that the growth LM positively predicted all components of AEG. While enjoyment functioned only as a mediator, which linked growth LM to emotional engagement, anxiety linked growth LM to all subcomponents of AEG. Moreover, out of the two emotions examined by this study, anxiety negatively predicted the four components of AEG, whereas enjoyment only influenced emotional engagement.

A sample of 2974 primary and secondary school teachers in China participated in the study. The results showed that paternalistic leadership had a dual effect on teachers. Benevolent and authoritarian leadership enhanced teachers’ deep and surface acting. Authoritarian leadership had a positive association with teachers’ absorption, while moral leadership had the opposite effect. Leader-member exchange played a significant role in mediating the influence of benevolent and moral leadership on teachers’ emotional labor strategies and absorption. The results highlight the importance of abandoning stereotyped leadership styles and utilizing all three dimensions of paternalistic leadership. It is suggested that school principals show benevolence with sincerity and to an appropriate degree. They should promote their communications with teachers to mitigate the negative effects of authoritarian leadership and promote leader-member exchange.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47344,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Education Review","volume":"25 1","pages":"87 - 98"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135883603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, a major criticism is that higher education institutions do not often prepare graduates for real-life contexts. For that reason, it is not surprising that graduate employability and the competencies required have become the primary concerns of HEIs. Often, we see the phrases \"competency\" and \"employability\" presented in the literature as essential requirements for graduates to attain gainful employment streams. Some studies also present them as interrelated concepts<b>.</b> However, we seldom find studies that unravel their intertwined relationships. This article tries to bridge this gap by looking into the role of HEIs in promoting the development of competencies for employability. We used a structured questionnaire to collect the quantitative data from 389 postgraduate students enrolled in a generic stream from an Indian State, Kerala. This paper proposes and tests a structural model of relationships between the perceived competencies of the postgraduates and their perceived career preparedness and, subsequently, perceived employability. This paper also highlights the need to reimagine tertiary education to suit the demands of changing times.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47344,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Education Review","volume":"25 2","pages":"439 - 457"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134960823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Building on a conceptualization of the students as borderland subjects, the study brings to the fore a critical and creative state of in-betweenness characterizing the positioning of the students, putting into question the paradigm of adjustment and adaption that has long dominated research on international student migration (ISM). To unveil the subtleties behind the students’ formation of borderland subjectivities, the study draws on the notion of scale. By examining the scaling practices of the students, the study provides a nuanced account of how the students discursively index and connect multiple spatial–temporal contexts to guide their journey toward becoming borderland subjects. By combining the notion of scale with the borderland trope, the study sheds light on an emerging avenue of research that aims to uncover the transformative and fluid underpinnings of ISM.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47344,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Education Review","volume":"26 1","pages":"91 - 102"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s12564-023-09893-7.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42124193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
