Abstract More and more systematic reviews (SRs) are being published in the educational sciences. This umbrella mapping review examines 576 SRs between 2018 2022 field of open, distance, digital education (ODDE) to investigate publication authorship patterns evaluate quality these SRs. A index score was calculated for each included study based on PRISMA reporting items (including elements such as search strategy, eligibility criteria, protocol registration, appraisal, interrater reliability,...
SIGNIFICANCE Optimal meibography utilization and interpretation are hindered due to poor lid presentation, blurry images, or image artifacts the challenges of applying clinical grading scales. These results, using largest dataset analyzed date, demonstrate development algorithms that provide standardized, real-time inference addresses all these limitations. PURPOSE This study aimed develop validate an algorithmic pipeline automate standardize meibomian gland absence assessment...
Reinforcing an alternative response in the same context as a target reduces rate of occurrence but increases persistence that response. Applied researchers who use such techniques to decrease problem behavior risk inadvertently increasing behavior. Behavioral momentum theory asserts increased is function reinforcement enhancing Pavlovian relation between stimulus and reinforcement. A method showing promise for reducing persistence‐enhancing effects train separate before combining with...
In two laboratory experiments, we examined whether stimuli paired with alternative reinforcers could mitigate resurgence of a previously reinforced target response pigeons (Experiment 1) and children diagnosed Autism Spectrum Disorder 2). Phase 1, arranged food reinforcement according to variable‐ratio schedule for engaging in response. 2, extinction responding differentially fixed‐ratio schedule, every alternative‐reinforcer delivery change keylight color or automated verbal (praise)...
Resurgence is defined as the recurrence of a previously reinforced and then extinguished target response when reducing or eliminating more recently alternative response. In experiments with children pigeons, we evaluated patterns resurgence across within sessions through decreases in reinforcer availability by challenging responding extinction progressive‐ratio schedules. Phase 1, only responding. 2, while reinforcing an Finally, 3 assessed (a) extinguishing versus (b) introducing schedule...
The baseline rate of a reinforced target response decreases with the availability response-independent sources alternative reinforcement; however, resistance to disruption and relapse increases. Because many behavioral treatments for problem behavior include response-dependent reinforcement behavior, present study assessed whether also rates but increases extinction relapse. We responding at equal across two components multiple schedule pigeons. compared via reinstatement (1) trained...
Reinforcing an alternative response in the presence of stimuli governing a target increases resistance to extinction responding, relative training responding on its own. Conversely, and responses different combining those only decreases The present study assessed how methods discriminative influence pigeons. As previous studies, across keys decreased In comparison, same key initially increased but repeated tests resulted similar levels as with combined separate keys. Moreover, greater...
Artificial intelligence in education (AIEd) is a fast-growing field of research. In previous work, we described efforts to explore the possible futures AIEd by identifying key variables and their future prospects. This paper re-examines our discussions on governance data role students teachers considering implications 1) recent case related General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2) release ChatGPT, generative AI model capable producing ‘human-like’ text. These events raise questions for...
Open Networked Learning (ONL) is a collaborative open online course for higher education educators worldwide, focusing on education, learning, and design. The interorganizational welcomes both institutional learners from around 30 nations. Delivered 17 times since 2014 with up to 120 participants in each session, ONL employs problem-based learning foster digital competencies strengthen community development. Rooted the European Framework Digital Competence of Educators (DigCompEdu), study...
Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior ( DRA ) is a treatment designed to eliminate problem by reinforcing an at higher rate. Availability may be signaled, as with Functional Communication Training, or unsignaled. Whether not signaled could influence both the rate and persistence behavior. The present study investigated whether signaling availability affects concurrently available target response pigeons. Three components multiple concurrent schedule arranged equal rates for...
Studies of behavioral momentum reveal that reinforcing an alternative response in the presence a target reduces rate responding but increases its persistence, relative to training on own. Because parallels between these studies and differential‐reinforcement techniques reduce problem behavior clinical settings, without enhancing persistence are being explored. One potential solution is train separate stimulus context from before combining with stimulus. The present study assessed how...
This paper reports on a systematic review of artificial intelligence applications in education (AIEd) with special focus automated essay scoring (AES) systems. AES systems may provide enormous time-savings, especially for large-scale distance teaching institutions massive numbers students, by reducing marking and freeing up teachers’ resources individual feedback personal support learners. After an introduction how function, corpus published articles between 2007 2021 is synthetised to...
Stimuli that provide information about likely future reinforcers tend to shift behavior, provided a reliable relation between the stimulus and reinforcer can be discriminated. are apparently more exert greater control over behavior. We asked how subjective value (measured in terms of preference) associated with stimuli influences control. Five pigeons worked on concurrent chains procedure which half all trials ended smaller sooner, other larger later. In Signaled trials, color flash duration...
Student engagement is linked to student success and shaped by the availability of support through their academic journeys. Improving with adequate strategies a continuous challenge for open distance learning (ODL) institutions. However, there limited understanding how experience can be influenced team outside instructional context faculty presence. In 2020, Open Polytechnic (OP) Te P?kenga, specialist provider education in New Zealand, implemented three-tiered framework support. This system...
Differential-reinforcement treatments reduce target problem behavior in the short term but at expense of making it more persistent long term. Basic and translational research based on behavioral momentum theory suggests that combining features stimuli governing an alternative response with responding could make less persistent. However, changes to stimulus context when diminish effectiveness reducing responding. In animal model pigeons, present study reinforced presence stimuli. When during...
The application of artificial intelligence in education (AIEd) is a growing field research. While the potential benefits AIEd drive interest and investment, developing ethical applications that mitigate risk entrenching inequalities requires input from key stakeholders like teachers students. present project aims to give voice perspectives educators higher on possible futures AIEd. Towards this end, we developed set strategic scenarios, each describing hypothetical application, invited...
Artificial intelligence in education (AIEd) is a growing field of research that has the potential to transform learning and teaching practices. The process developing ethical AIEd applications are fit-for-purpose requires ongoing multi-stakeholder dialogues include students teachers. present study sought explore perspectives teachers higher on possible futures AIEd. Using qualitative methods, we conducted focus-group discussions three countries (Japan, Spain, Germany) with educators working...
