The research employed a mixed-methods design, integrating quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with 150 teachers and 20 mentors, who were selected via purposive and convenience sampling. The findings indicated that mid-career teachers pursued professional change and enhanced engagement with pedagogical strategies, whereas veteran teachers prioritized leadership development. The findings highlight the necessity for customized mentorship strategies to meet the changing requirements of teachers at various stages in their careers despite challenges like time limitations and mentor incompatibilities. This study offers original insights into the varied needs of teachers throughout their developmental trajectories.

Understanding the relationship between school working conditions with job satisfaction is considered to be essential for enhancing teacher motivation, retention, and ultimately, student outcomes. Following the influential study by Toropova et al. (2021), the current study employs regression analysis of TIMSS 2019 data from 46 countries and benchmarking entities to investigate the relationship between school working conditions – school leadership, student discipline, and teacher workload – and teacher job satisfaction among secondary school teachers. The findings shed light on the specific aspects of school working conditions that are significantly associated with teacher job satisfaction. The findings highlight a notable association between leadership support and student discipline with teacher job satisfaction in various countries. Furthermore, our findings indicate that, on average, female teachers report higher job satisfaction than male teachers across most countries, although country-specific workforce compositions may play a role in shaping this relationship, and professional development was found to be positively correlated with teacher job satisfaction. The effects of years of teaching experience, majoring in mathematics, and majoring in mathematics education yielded inconsistent results. The results contribute to the existing research on teacher job satisfaction and provide practical implications for policymakers, school administrators, and educational stakeholders to create supportive and conducive working environments for teachers and contribute to the professional well-being of teachers worldwide.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47539,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Educational Evaluation","volume":"86 ","pages":"Article 101474"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144071138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, PFB is a complex skill that needs explicit instruction through modelling. To leverage the positive effects, a theoretical and pedagogy-driven application of PFB - namely scaffolded PFB modelling - was integrated into an online higher education academic writing course. To address needs-driven modifications of PFB within this course, students were surveyed after course completion to provide insights into their additional supporting needs about PFB. In total, 173 students answered reflective questions and six students were interviewed. Their responses were analyzed using Atlas.ti. Analyses showed that the need for PFB modelling was especially shown in the phases of observation and emulation. Students indicated the need for examples, additional (step-by-step) instructional materials, and the opportunity for guided practice and additional teacher feedback. In addition, students also provided suggestions to improve the PFB process; most of these suggestions were related to the online aspect of the course and its negative influence on interaction possibilities, which impeded communication and the development of trust and relationships among students. These results demonstrate that a pedagogy-driven application of PFB in an online higher education course requires a needs-driven, context-dependent redesign of PFB assignment(s), especially in the observation- and emulation modelling phases with extra attention to interaction.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47539,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Educational Evaluation","volume":"86 ","pages":"Article 101464"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143891887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim was to predict a performance indicator one to three academic years in the future and to compare the results of five years and to official statistics. Micro clusters were generated and a stack of 20 machine learning algorithms was applied to each cluster. The algorithms and their hyperparameter settings were determined in an explorative manual pre-selection process. The results show deviations from the official statistics between 2 % and 8 % (<em>SD</em> = 6 %) for one academic year in the future, 1–29 % (<em>SD</em> = 19 %) for two and 1–17 % (<em>SD</em> = 11 %) for three years. Model performance correlated with increasing details in the micro clusters and was better in larger micro clusters. The method is very flexible and can be used in a multitude of different university settings worldwide and for different outcomes of interest, e.g., grades or student status. However, the flexibility goes along with a tedious setup and very long runtimes. Future improvements with increased automation are warranted and “meta-procedures” should be developed that can perform automated resampling and hyperparameter tuning on a stack of algorithms. The method presented in this study contributes to preventive university management in different countries and university systems.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47539,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Educational Evaluation","volume":"85 ","pages":"Article 101463"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143844044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
