Loneliness, online learning and student outcomes in college students living with disabilities: results from the National College Health Assessment Spring 2022.

People with disabilities face many health, economic and social disparities. Loneliness is recognized as a significant issue for this group however, its impact on students with disabilities (SWDs) remains a critically underexplored area of research. Importantly, as higher education continues its transition to the digital space, the potential to entrench social isolation and loneliness within this population has not been examined. This research seeks to explore the associations between SWDs, loneliness, online learning, and academic outcomes in a national survey of university students. Using the National College Health Assessment from Spring 2022, this study compared multiple outcomes between different groups of SWDs and students without disabilities. Two ordinal regression models were used to estimate associations between loneliness, disability type and learning mode (online vs. in-person), as well as cumulative grade average (CGA) with disability type. All disability types included within this study were positively associated with increased odds of loneliness for those engaged in online learning compared to students without disabilities. Interactions indicate a significant effect of in-person learning compared with online learning for deaf or hard of hearing students, and those with multiple disabilities. Several disability groups reported decreased odds of higher CGA compared to students without disabilities. Loneliness is a significant issue for all SWD groups reported in this study. The impact of disability on academic outcomes is reported herein; however, its impact on medium-to-long term outcomes for these individuals remains unknown. To address inequities in higher education for SWDs, universities must invest more resources to holistically support these students.

Ценностные ориентации, номинирующие будущего педагога как объект прогностического описания

The role of values in individual and social consciousness has been discussed for a long time. The issue of interpretation of value orientations that determine the process of choosing life strategies and regulating the social behavior of a person and society is equally significant and studied. The purpose of the work is to identify basic values and analyze the parameters of value orientations both of an individual and of a social group of student youth. The reflexive methodology for identifying values was chosen as a research method. The empirical technology of double open questions made it possible, based on freely recorded values and individual conceptual ideas, to identify the key value orientations of students, which can be taken as a basis when developing effective technology solutions for optimizing the learning of university students. The study involved 90 students of pedagogical training program at the Volgograd State Agrarian University aged from 18 to 26 years, of which, there were 52 girls and 38 boys. Quantitative and qualitative assessments allowed considering the features of life values according to their degree of popularity, significance and satisfaction with them of future teachers as part of student youth and one of the forms of national identity manifestation. The results of the study showed that family, health, and material well-being are highly popular in the structure of life values of future teachers. Patriotism, efficiency in business and family are considered significant values in life. The greatest satisfaction with the state was revealed for such values as sharing experience with young people, family and education. Such orientations as dignity, honor, faith, goodness, joy, happiness, responsibility, and environment improvement are weakly represented.

The Relationship between Self-Regulated Learning and Students' Critical Thinking Skills

Self-regulated learning can provide self-reinforcement in gaining academic achievement which in this case is the ability to solve problems by using critical thinking skills. Students need to know their characteristics so they can plan learning strategies and self-regulation processes according to their characteristics so that their critical thinking skills can improve. The purpose of this research is to determine the level of conscientiousness and self-regulated learning (SRL) of university students in the elementary school teacher education study program at Sebelas Maret University. The research sample was 105 students from the class of 2022. The data collection technique used was a test. The data analysis used inferential statistical analysis. The results showed that the SRL of the students was 35% which was mostly in the medium category, while their critical thinking was 35% and mostly in the low category. Based on the Kendal Tau correlation test, the relationship between SRL and critical thinking skills was 0.000 0.05. The results of this research can be used as a reference to measure the correlation between SRL and the critical thinking of university students.

Universal design of instruction to enhance learning for university students with visual disabilities.

There has been a steady increase in the number of students with disabilities (SWD) in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in South Africa, with a significant number of students having visual disabilities. Equal access remains a key challenge in the classroom setting, thus emphasising a significant gap. This paper capitalised on the significance of this gap and examined the potential of Universal Design of Instruction (UDI) to promote equal access for students with visual disabilities (SWVDs) in the classroom within a university setting in order to maximise learning outcomes. The study was conducted at the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN), which had approximately 204 SWVDs. This paper draws primarily on the quantitative component of the study. Data collection entailed distributing a questionnaire to all SWVDs. Analysis was conducted using SPSS 21, which produced descriptive and inferential statistics. The theoretical framework of Sen's Capability Approach in line with the Social Model of Disability was applied. Findings indicated a lack of UDI in the classroom with very little compliance to all principles, resulting in increased challenges in teaching and learning for SWVDs. The incorporation of UDI in the classroom does have a positive correlation with learning outcomes. The incorporation of UDI principles can offer a potential design for easier access to teaching and learning to enhance and maximise learning outcomes; alleviate access challenges in the classroom; and address the negative experiences thereof for SWVDs. The study adds value to the scarce body of knowledge on UDI in the classroom for university SWVDs from a learning enhancement perspective.

Flexible Learning and Student-Teacher Relationship Experience of College Students with Visual Impairment

In the absence of guidelines and policies on flexible learning delivery to students with special needs from the Commission on Higher Education, this study aimed to describe the lived experiences of flexible learning and the student-teacher relationship of four college students with visual impairments who were mainstreamed in a Philippine higher education institution during the COVID-19 pandemic. The researchers utilized the Husserlian descriptive phenomenological approach and performed a thematic analysis of the data gathered from the interview. As a result, the themes that emerged for flexible learning were (1) environmental and (2) personal factors. On the other hand, the themes that emerged for student-teacher relationships were (1) instructional and (2) motivational interactions. During flexible learning, the students encountered factors beyond their control, making them feel ambivalent and experience adverse health consequences. Despite the challenging circumstances, they coped by upskilling and through social support. The students received accommodation, care, and encouragement from their teachers but asserted that their unique needs must be considered when their teachers design academic tasks and instructional materials. The insights gained from the study imply that education leaders and university administrators may improve the flexible learning experience of students by crafting inclusive quality education policies and capacitating teachers on disability awareness, appropriate teaching strategies, and the use of assistive technology for students with visual impairment.

Profile Perceptions of the University Classroom Climate

The main objective of the research was to outline the dominant and descended dimensions in a perception instrument, taking as a factor, the declared gender. The sample is random and the sample size reaches 235 university students. The study is based on a quantitative approach, its level of depth is descriptive and inferential, with a prospective, cross-sectional and non-experimental register. The Teaching Climate Scale Conducive to University Student Learning [ECAFEU] was used as a data collection instrument. The main results, after the respective factor analysis, give evidence of dimensional validity, whose factor loads for each item are significant to the corresponding factor. As a methodological strategy, the ECAFEU index is defined, from which 3 types of perception are identified, these being: positive, neutral or negative, the concept of dominance is also considered, referring to the dominant and descended dimension, in such a way as to generate a tool for guidance in decision-making. Regarding those students categorized as having a positive perception, the dominant dimension is dialogic communication between teachers and students, and the most descended dimension is represented by Environmental Conditions. The teaching modality (day and evening) is considered as a study factor, establishing significant effects in the configuration of dominance and in the ECAFEU index.
