Summary: Motivational interventions based on SEVT can improve students' motivation and academic performance. Instead of solely focusing on perceived utility value, it is recommended to explore interventions targeting other key constructs in the theory to enhance students' overall motivation and performance.

Summary: This paper proposes a new evaluation method for under-graduate education quality based on Artificial Intelligence Neural Network Back-Propagation (BP) algorithm and stress testing. It constructs a publicly available indicator pool and utilizes the BP neural network algorithm to identify important indicators and explore the influence of education quality in different situations.

Summary: This study examined whether students' basic learning needs could be met through online learning. The results showed that autonomy and competence were fulfilled, but relatedness needs were not met. It was also found that autonomy had a direct relationship with competence, but not with relatedness.

Summary: Logistic regression models (LRMs) are commonly used in psychology and education experiments to analyze binary outcomes, but the results are often difficult to interpret. This study proposes alternative models, including the linear probability model, the log-binomial model, and the modified Poisson regression model, and evaluates their performance using Monte Carlo simulations.

Summary: Inspired by the digitalization during the Covid-19 crisis, this study investigates the emergence of a digital learning space in higher education. Through analyzing three phases of digitalization at the University of Oslo, three underlying forces of the digital learning space were identified: alignment of digital education and digital subjects, redefinition of roles between students and teachers, and the ability to engage with the broader society.

Summary: The study investigated the engagement and interactions of students in traditional face-to-face learning environment and online learning environment during the COVID-19 pandemic in two Greek universities. The results showed that students exhibited lower emotional engagement in the online environment, mainly due to decreased human interaction levels.

Summary: The objective of this study is to identify and analyze the scientific literature on virtual reality in education using bibliometric analysis. The study provides an overview of virtual reality technology used in education, highlighting the main topics, authors, sources, and countries in the literature. It also aims to understand the conceptual, intellectual, and social structure of the literature and the knowledge base of VR in education, as well as its integration into teaching-learning processes. The research findings reveal that VR is widely used in education, but institutions were initially slow to adopt it.

Summary: This study examined the effects of domain-specific knowledge and domain-general cognitive abilities on second language listening comprehension. The results showed that vocabulary knowledge had the strongest effect on listening performance, while topical knowledge and attentional control had direct effects. Only metacognitive awareness had an indirect effect on listening comprehension through topical knowledge.

Summary: Students' self-determined motivation is associated with higher academic well-being, persistence, and achievement, and is dependent on the satisfaction of psychological needs - relatedness, competence, and autonomy - which are facilitated through supportive behaviors from notable others. The study shows that teacher autonomy support predicts students' need satisfaction and self-determined motivation more strongly than parental autonomy support, while competence is the most positive predictor of self-determined motivation.
