Islam Across Cultures: The International Islamic University Of Indonesia Through A Western Lens, Elizabeth Summerfield
Islam Across Cultures: The International Islamic University Of Indonesia Through A Western Lens, Elizabeth Summerfield
The Journal of Values-Based Leadership
Since the September 11th tragedy in the United States, Islam has become associated with many in the West with unpredictable menace, a significant threat to the civilised order. This article presents a preliminary exploration of a counter narrative to that conception of Islam. Indonesian Islam challenges that common perception, even while it has also been the site of Islamic extremist violence. The big picture of Islam in Indonesia reveals a different story, one where such militancy is aberrant. It is not reflective of deep principles of Islam as it is practised by the vast majority of Indonesian Muslims. To take …

This comparative study provides a comprehensive guide for leveraging machine learning packages in R, facilitating informed decision-making, and advancing the adoption of effective methodologies in data-driven research and application. Findings in this study ensure that researchers make …
Detecting Compromised Items In Computerized Linear Testing: A Novel Approach Using Autoencoders And Bert, Yiqin Pan, Sandip Sinharay
Detecting Compromised Items In Computerized Linear Testing: A Novel Approach Using Autoencoders And Bert, Yiqin Pan, Sandip Sinharay
Chinese/English Journal of Educational Measurement and Evaluation | 教育测量与评估双语期刊
Item compromise is a significant concern in the testing industry. We propose a novel approach for detecting compromised items in computerized linear testing by analyzing response times and scores. Our method consists of three primary components. First, we employ autoencoders, a type of neural network, to model response times and scores, capturing the unique characteristics of each item and examinee. Second, we develop a BERT-based model to analyze examinees’ response patterns, predict expected response times. The characteristic vectors generated by the autoencoders are integrated into the BERT-based model, enhancing its ability to recognize response patterns. Third, an algorithm is designed …
Automated Text Scoring In The Age Of Generative Ai For The Gpu-Poor, Chris M. Ormerod, Alexander Kwako
Automated Text Scoring In The Age Of Generative Ai For The Gpu-Poor, Chris M. Ormerod, Alexander Kwako
Chinese/English Journal of Educational Measurement and Evaluation | 教育测量与评估双语期刊
Abstract Current research on generative language models (GLMs) for automated text scoring (ATS) has focused almost exclusively on querying proprietary models via Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). Yet such practices raise issues around transparency and security, and these methods offer little in the way of efficiency or customizability. With the recent proliferation of smaller, open-source models, there is the option to explore GLMs with computers equipped with modest, consumer-grade hardware—that is, for the “GPU poor.” In this study, we analyze the performance and efficiency of open-source, small-scale GLMs for ATS. Results show that GLMs can be fine-tuned to achieve adequate, though …

The Learner's Experience Using Augmented Reality, Michael Lionel Atkinson
The Learner's Experience Using Augmented Reality, Michael Lionel Atkinson
Theses and Dissertations
Augmented reality (AR) is a promising learning tool that has the potential to improve learning experiences in unique ways. While AR has been extensively studied in terms of learning outcomes, relatively little has been researched about the qualitative aspect of the learner experience and how that may inform better instruction. This multi-article, journal-ready dissertation addresses this gap. The first article is a review of the literature on what researchers have learned about AR in learning, systematically identifying six areas that appear salient yet underrepresented in the literature. The second article expands further upon this theme by conducting a qualitative study …
Assessing Client Satisfaction In University Counseling: Factor Structure Of A Survey Developed For A Private, Religious-Affiliated Institution, Wai Man Cheng
Theses and Dissertations
This study examined the factor structure of a client satisfaction survey developed by BYU Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS). The survey included (a) universal, (b) individual, (c) couple, and (d) group subscales. Only the universal and individual subscales were analyzed. The couple and group subscales were excluded due to limited sample sizes. For the universal subscale, the analysis supported a first-order model with three factors: (a) clarity, (b) cultural competence, and (c) progress. For the individual subscale, the analysis supported a second-order model. Three first-order factors including (a) symptom relief, (b) insight and awareness, and (c) guidance and coping skills, …
Administrators' Perception Of The Effectiveness Of Trauma-Informed Practices In Disciplinary Decisions, Rebecca Cahill
Administrators' Perception Of The Effectiveness Of Trauma-Informed Practices In Disciplinary Decisions, Rebecca Cahill
Dissertations
This research study examined administrators’ perceptions of the effectiveness of trauma-informed practices in disciplinary decision-making. Ten elementary school assistant principals were interviewed about their experiences with trauma-informed practices following a student referral. The participants also submitted behavioral expectation matrices and discipline flowcharts for analysis. The participants recognized and valued the underlying elements of trauma-informed practices (relationships, context, support, and cultural factors). However, they lack a clear understanding of and processes for full implementation of trauma-informed practices into disciplinary decision-making. Given the increase in negative student behavior and teacher requests for support, more research is needed to identify a process(es) for …

Development Of Financial Management Skills: A Guidebook For Caregivers Of Autistic Children, Marcie Balleza, Steven M. Gerardi, Angela Blackwell
Fall 2024 OTD Capstone Symposium
Autistic children face challenges to living independently, including learning to manage finances. Caregivers of autistic children must develop in their care recipients the financial skills to live independently. A lack of educational resources on how to teach financial management skills can impede the development of independent living skills in autistic children. Caregivers of autistic children lack the education and training that is necessary to teach financial management skills to autistic children to prepare them for transition to adulthood. Caregivers of autistic children do not know how to help their child learn money management skills in preparation for the transition to …

Perceived Childhood Paternal Betrayal Trauma: The Impact To Attachment And Interpersonal Relationships As Adults, Jacquelyn S. Marcum
Perceived Childhood Paternal Betrayal Trauma: The Impact To Attachment And Interpersonal Relationships As Adults, Jacquelyn S. Marcum
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was to explore adult female perspectives of being abandoned by a father during their grade school years (between ages 6 and 12). Current research has indicated that parental abandonment or rejection creates anxious, avoidant, and insecure attachments into adulthood. Wounded attachment can significantly impact the ability to form healthy attachments as adults. Limited research is available on children between the ages of 6 to 12 on how betrayal trauma impacts the developmental stages, the sense-of-self, and the ability to form and maintain healthy attachments within relationships throughout adolescence and adulthood. In the current …
