Development and Validation of the Multidimensional Interest Development Survey (MIS)
Understanding the multifaceted aspects of interest is crucial for improving engagement and learning. However, adequate measurement tools for this complex construct have been lacking. We conducted two studies to address this gap. Study 1 focused on developing the Multidimensional Interest Development Survey (MIS), capturing diverse interest components and stages. Study 2 aimed to validate the MIS. Study 1 ( n = 277) and Study 2 ( n = 342) involved…
The interplay among digital distraction, self-regulation of learning tendencies, and motivational influences
What Keeps Teachers Engaged during Professional Development? The Role of Interest Development
Interest influences adults’ and young learners’ learning in formal and informal contexts. Although interest and interest development frameworks have been used in research on student-learning, they are not used in teacher-focused research, especially as “outcomes” of teacher professional development (PD) activities. In this study, we used interest development as the outcome of PD in computer science (CS) and investigated the factors that influence…
Understanding the Relationship Among Self-efficacy, Utility Value, and the Community of Inquiry Framework in Preservice Teacher Education
School closures during the COVID-19 pandemic have shown the importance of distance education, and teachers have been tasked with designing and delivering online courses in a short amount of time without much preparation or deliberation. As the future generation of teachers, preservice teachers need to be prepared to teach online, and their motivation to do so is a key factor in how successfully they do it. The community of inquiry framework provi…

Problem Solving and Teaching How to Solve Problems in Technology-Rich Contexts
Problem solving is perhaps the key characteristic that makes us human. Given the kinds of problems that we face in a competitive economy and society, the new generation of learners is ever more required to have problem-solving abilities. By drawing from the literature on technological pedagogical content knowledge, design thinking, general and specific methods of problem solving, and role of technologies for solving problems, this article highlig…
