The sample size consisted of 137 participants from the United States who earned a Bachelor’s, master’s, or Doctoral degree and were over the age of 22. Participants were a diverse group including both genders and, different racial and socioeconomic statuses. The one-way ANOVA test suggested that statistically significant difference did not exist among the three different groups of participants, in relation to their moral reasoning on the recent events in the United States. The two-way MANOVA test suggested that statistically significant difference was found in one dependent variable.

Education is a social and historical category; no society has failed to have an educational system. Helmuth von Hentig outlines this in his text and, he reminds us that education is action, process and result. The paradigm shift brought about by the accelerated transformation of society also applies to the concept of education. New technologies and the irreversible digitalization of society have already greatly influenced educational practices and processes.

As a disability, dyslexia, cannot be cured; however, with proper teaching methods, it's possible to significantly minimize the effects to allow students with dyslexia to successfully learn as well as those without dyslexia. The purpose of this article is to provide information about dyslexia and discuss some of the teaching methods educators can use to help learners with dyslexia overcome reading barriers and become successful learners.

Unlike the previous research studies that investigated the links between English language learning and cognitive skills and had large numbers of participants, this research study relied on small group of participants to provide detailed information about the effects of English language learning on their creative thinking skills in the domains of fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration as measured with the Alternate Uses Test. This study involved the collection of quantitative data at the pretest and posttest stages and the explanation of the quantitative data using qualitative data.

The literature review has revealed previously conducted research study that suggest that individuals of conservative and liberal political orientation may have psychological differences in the domain of emotions, attention, self-control, and cognition. However, the literature review did not reveal research studies that explored educational preferences between individuals with conservative and liberal political orientation in the United States. The results suggest that statistically significant difference exists in the preference to study abroad (χ ² (1, N = 200) = 3.739, p = 0.05). Additional differences, but without a statistically significant differences, were found in t...

The sample size consisted of 160 participants, of whom 80 were fulltime college learners who successfully completed second language course(s). The MANOVA test suggested that a statistically significant difference existed in the domain of flexibility (F (1,158) = 5.602; p 0.05; partial η² = 0.016), originality (F (1,158) = 2.444; p > 0.05; partial η² = 0.015), and elaboration (F (1,158) = 2.822; p > 0.05; partial η² = 0.018).

This cognitive process may be especially challenging for learners with Down syndrome. A genetic disorder that causes mild to moderate intellectual disabilities, Down syndrome may no longer be viewed as completely eliminating learners' ability to learn to read. With early intervention and proper teaching and learning methods, learners with Down syndrome can learn to read and improve their existing reading skills. Therefore, the purpose of this research article is to provide information about certain teaching strategies that may enable teachers to help learners with Down syndrome learn to read and improve their existing reading skills.
