Summary: Student engagement is a crucial factor in predicting mathematical achievement, with affective engagement being the strongest predictor followed by behavioral engagement and cognitive engagement. Policymakers should develop curriculum to enhance affective and behavioral engagement, and school administrators and teachers should plan and implement activities to stimulate student engagement.

Summary: Lessons in nature can improve the behavior and performance of disadvantaged young people, with students showing higher engagement in outdoor classrooms. However, this increased engagement did not necessarily lead to better academic grades. Outdoor classrooms may help reduce disengagement and misbehavior in class, particularly for students disproportionately affected by these issues.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate and identify factors that enhance and restrict Doctor of Pharmacy student engagement in community-engaged learning activities. The study found that motivations for both mandatory and voluntary engagement included structured learning activities, reflective learning, personal interest, career development, and advocacy for the pharmacy profession. Common barriers identified included limited information about student responsibilities, limited student role, and feelings of unconfidence or unpreparedness. The study concludes that there is a need to manage and address these barriers, and suggests the use of learning tools such as critical reflection to enhance student engagement.

Summary: Higher education can have a transformative impact on students by enhancing their interpersonal skills and increasing their awareness of community needs through service-learning activities. This study shows that students who participate in semester-long service-learning projects have a stronger belief in the role of business schools in fostering civic-mindedness compared to those involved in single class projects. Additionally, incorporating service-learning activities into even a single class period can positively influence students' perception of engagement in the course and the community.

Summary: In this paper, new 3D CNN prediction models were proposed for detecting student engagement levels in an e-learning environment. The first model classifies engagement into high positive engagement or low positive engagement, while the second model classifies engagement into low negative engagement or disengagement. The models utilize deep spatiotemporal features of students' body activities to predict engagement levels. A new video dataset collected from real students attending online classes was used for this study. The findings suggest that spatiotemporal features are more suitable for analyzing body activities, the proposed models outperform state-of-the-art methods, and the newly collected dataset contributes to delivering comparable results to current methods. These findings are important for the development of intelligent and interactive e-learning systems that can provide feedback based on user engagement.

Summary: This study investigates the predictors of student academic performance by examining stakeholders' participation, goal directness, and classroom context. The results show that learning context has the highest variance in students' engagement and academic performance. Goal directness has the highest influence on academic performance, while the learning climate of the classroom affects students' engagement. Overall engagement and cognitive induction are crucial for students' academic performance. Stakeholders' participation may have a low impact, but the role of parents, teachers, peers, and students themselves is significant. Student engagement mediates the relationship between independent variables and outcomes. These findings are important for policymakers and schools to improve students' engagement and academic performance.

Summary: This tribute commemorates the life and work of Dennis Michael McInerney, a renowned scholar who passed away in Hong Kong on May 20th, 2022. It acknowledges his profound impact on both professional and personal spheres, while highlighting the breadth and significance of his scholarly contributions. McInerney was a thought leader who urged us to reevaluate how we approach scientific investigations in the context of teaching and learning, which is evident in his widely read books and research articles published in eminent journals. Throughout his illustrious career, he dedicated a substantial portion of his efforts to studying the challenges associated with understanding culture and its role in motivation research. His belief in the necessity of Indigenous educational research to assess the applicability of mainstream motivation theories across culturally diverse groups and in cross-cultural contexts underscores his enduring influence.

Summary: This study examined different types of achievement goals in mathematics and their associations with various factors at the student-level (achievement, self-efficacy, anxiety) and class-level (instructional quality dimensions). Four profiles of achievement goals were identified, with different profiles associated with different outcomes. The study also revealed the impact of instructional quality on students' achievement goals.

Summary: This scoping review evaluated the survival outcomes and characteristics of ECPR for toxicological arrest, finding that it may improve survival outcomes in selected poisoned patients. Poisonings involving membrane-stabilizing agents and cardio-depressive drugs, and cardiac arrests with shockable rhythms appear to have better outcomes. Early ECLS activation and pre-emptive catheter placement can significantly shorten time-to-ECPR and possibly improve survival.
