Abstract: The world outside is itself the greatest storehouse of knowledge. Human reason, drawing upon the pattern and redundancy of nature, can predict some of the consequences of human action. But the world will always remain the largest laboratory, the largest information store, from which we will learn the outcomes, good and bad, of what we have done.The purpose of this study is to apply visual data analytics, specifically a hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) heatmap, to longitudinal student trajectories of all grades and enrolled subjects from grades 9 through college as a means to inform current education early warning system research and practice through generating maps of entire cohorts of student progress linked ...

Abstract: Out-of-school mathematics programs (OSMP) can be of great benefit to students' motivation to excel in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and to students' future education or career trajectories (Namakshi, 2016). However, little is known about precisely how students perceive the support provided to them by OSMPs, especially with respect to students of color. Studies that have focused on high-achieving high school students from underrepresented groups have documented obstacles that confront minority populations, in particular African American and Latino students, in their path to success in college mathematics (e.g., Glennie et al., 2019; Joseph et al., 2020; McGee, 2013; Tabron & Venzant ...

Abstract: Mental-health issues are widely accepted as a barrier to learning and the rates of mental-health issues in K-12 students are continuing to rise (Ormiston et al., 2021). Research indicates 20 percent of secondary students suffer from a mental health issue (Lambie et al., 2019), and 70-80 percent of these students do not receive treatment (Eklund et al., 2017). Additionally, 90 percent of children who die by suicide, which is the second leading cause of death for adolescents, suffer mental health issues (Lambie et al., 2019). There is a bidirectional relationship between school performance and mental health disorders; students with mental health issues are at greater risk of poor performance, while those with ...

Abstract: In March of 2020, many people throughout the United States found themselves numb and overwhelmed by daily "breaking news" and other social media outlets reporting on the rapid spread of COVID-19. The initial spread of COVID-19 wreaked havoc on our society, leading to extreme losses. Death rates surged daily, impacting marginalized, underserved, and low-socioeconomic communities the hardest. Annie Xu and colleagues (2022) explained, " COVID-19 mortality rate for Black Americans will be 2.3 times as high as the rate for white Americans" (p. 1). They also mentioned that African Americans and Hispanics experienced disproportionate rates of high economic loss and other burdens, such as navigating unreasonable and ...
