Dialogic leadership is an emerging leadership approach that conceptualizes the role of members of the educational community (teachers, students, family members …) that develop leadership practices as they engage in dialogue with others. Research has already demonstrated the positive impacts of dialogic leadership in education as well as in other sectors, for example improving leadership skills in students or enabling the participation of community members in schools, but currently, there are no studies that synthesize these findings. The purpose of this paper is to review the impacts of dialogic leadership, consolidate its defining features, and contextualize it within educational leadership research. The PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) model was used for guidance in the reporting of this systematic review. We carried out an inductive thematic analysis on 27 articles that met the inclusion criteria. As a result, several themes emerged which describe dialogic leadership as an approach and its impacts. It is identified as an egalitarian and social justice-oriented approach that emphasizes inclusion in education. Its impacts are noted across two levels – individual and institutional. At the individual level, it has demonstrated synergies with improvements in the physical and mental wellbeing of adult learners; in self-confidence in children, staff in early education and adult learners, and in the quality of life of educational community members. While at the institutional level, among others, it has led to an improvement in the academic outcomes of students, and it has played the function of social cohesion - bringing society and community members closer and eliminating knowledge gaps through dialogue. We provide a discussion of these themes, along with the implications and suggestions for future research.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48125,"journal":{"name":"Educational Research Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1747938X24000277/pdfft?md5=b42432689d7faa925992f4370fc30fcf&pid=1-s2.0-S1747938X24000277-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141593111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A meta-analysis of vocational interest congruence as predictor for academic success","authors":"Nicky de Vries , Martijn Meeter , Mariëtte Huizinga","doi":"10.1016/j.edurev.2024.100619","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.edurev.2024.100619","url":null,"abstract":"<div><p>Vocational interests are a commonly used concept to help students choose a study program in higher education. The underlying assumption is that a good choice reflects congruence of the program with a student's vocational interests. This assumption however remains controversial, given the lack of conclusive evidence due to methodological problems, mixed results, and absence of meta-analyses using multiple indicators of academic success. Therefore, we aimed to provide reliable meta-analytic evidence regarding the relationship between interest congruence and three indicators of academic success in higher education, along with the sources of variation moderating this relationship. We first performed a systematic search in three databases, which included 23 studies. We then used psychometric meta-analysis and narrative analysis to synthesise these studies. The meta-analytic results revealed that interest congruence is a positive, albeit small, predictor of academic achievement, persistence in the study program, and satisfaction with the study program. Interestingly, the manner in which interest congruence was operationalised moderated this relation: congruence measures that were operationalised with the full interest profile showed larger effects. The outcomes of the narrative review showed a great variety of methodological approaches, rendering it difficult to draw a firm conclusion. However, the general observation based on the review is that the congruence-outcome relationship is affected by individual characteristics of students, such as prior achievement, gender, first-generation status, and race. In conclusion, the results of this meta-analysis and subsequent narrative review indicate that the concept of interest congruence has the potential to be a helpful tool for adolescents for reflection on study choice. However, the relationship between interest congruence and academic success is influenced by a complex interplay of measurement variables and other individual characteristics, which should be considered in future research.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48125,"journal":{"name":"Educational Research Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1747938X24000289/pdfft?md5=433fc430a07f7983af9aab72a692a3f6&pid=1-s2.0-S1747938X24000289-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141607748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this meta-analysis was to assess the association between adult-child co-use on 0–6-year-old children's learning from digital media. The analysis was conducted using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. We identified 17 studies investigating typically developing 0–6-year-old children's learning outcomes from digital media use with an adult for inclusion in this meta-analysis.

While the evidence suggests a positive role of adult-child co-use, support for this conclusion was limited by small sample sizes and a lack of variety in study design.

In this study, these three aspects were explored using a systematic literature review. From the selected 36 peer-reviewed articles was concluded that even though there is a rise in attention to inclusion in HE in recent years, most attention is still on integrating students with disabilities in regular education instead of the newer broader definition of inclusion ‘for every student’. When HE-teachers’ understanding of inclusion was discussed, they more often had a positive attitude toward inclusion, but it is unclear what this attitude was against (and what is meant by positive/negative) due to the neglect of mentioned definitions of characteristics. HE-teachers’ challenges for inclusion in higher education are internal (lack of knowledge, skills, experience, and confidence) and institutional (lack of resources, support, information, and training).

Age was a significant moderator of the relation between morphology and word reading, such that the relation was stronger for the younger than the older children. Younger children also demonstrated higher relations between multiple task dimensions and reading comprehension, including oral tasks, tasks without decoding, and tasks that provided context clues.
