The current study sought to evaluate the impact of programs used to enhance the self-regulation and social interaction for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), as perceived by their families. The descriptive approach was used to collect and analyze data and derive conclusions after developing the study instruments. The study sample consisted of 150 families of children with ASD enrolled in special education centers in Amman, Jordan. The study participants were purposefully selected to respond to the two provided measurement scales. To measure the impact of the intervention programs, the researchers developed the Self-Regulation Behavior Scale and the Social Interaction Scale, ensuring the validity and reliability of both scales. The results of the study indicated that from the families’ perspective, programs for children with ASD had a moderate impact on enhancing self-regulation and a high impact on social interaction. Additionally, the findings of the study revealed statistically significant differences in the degree of improvement in self-regulation and social interaction behaviors related to the child’s gender and the severity of their disorder. However, no statistically significant differences were found related to the child’s age and gender in their level of improvement in self-regulation and social interaction behaviors.

This qualitative article explores a Swedish teachers’ rebellion group (TRG) on Facebook with the aim of exploring teachers’ stories about violence in school. Facebook groups for teachers, such as the TRG, are common sites where teachers discuss and share professional matters and both public stories and subjective experiences. In this article, we focus on narratives about children who are perceived by the teachers as dangerous in various ways. The concept of the formula story, together with child and teacher agency, helps us to explore the symbolic and emotional aspects at stake when the teachers discuss the dangerous child in the TRG. In the analysis, an ambivalent image of the dangerous child emerges where child and teacher agency intersect with each other and with other human and non-human actors. This image challenges contemporary ideas and ideals about children and childhood as well as the teaching profession. The conclusion broadens our notions of the child and reflects upon the outcomes of applying agency to the context of school violence.

Home economics education connects multidisciplinary knowledge and is crucial in addressing the challenges of changing society at the individual and family levels. For quality home economics education, pupils need to acquire knowledge and skills based on the fundamentals of home economics literacy, content, and goals defined in the curriculum for this subject. Our research aimed to establish the needs and perspectives of teachers, pupils, and parents regarding the importance and utility of home economics education. Areas of home economics to be included in the subject’s curriculum were identified, based on the perceived needs of pupils, parents, and teachers. The Delphi methodological approach was used. The first round of the Delphi study involved 30 teachers, 34 9th-grade pupils, and 34 parents of 9th-grade pupils, and its second round involved 16 teachers, 33 9th-grade pupils, and 29 parents of 9th-grade pupils. Survey results showed that by the end of elementary school, pupils in their home economics classes had acquired knowledge and skills in the economic and financial area, as well as in environmental and consumption, textiles, nutrition, health and well-being, social skills, and family and home. Although individual groups of respondents differed in the perceived importance of particular home economics areas, the respondents considered it important that pupils acquire home economics knowledge and skills in all identified areas. The Delphi research method proved to be an adequate method to identify the areas of home economics education that are important for a quality of life in modern society and need to be included in the home economics curriculum.

This study examines the emotional labor of early childhood educators and its relationship with interactions involving children and parents, with a focus on emotional regulation and demographic influences. This study aimed to investigate the impact of emotional regulation strategies and demographic variables on educators’ emotional well-being during professional interactions. A quantitative approach was adopted, with data collected through structured questionnaires. The analysis concentrated on emotion suppression and surface acting in relation to well-being. Results indicated that teachers experienced considerable emotional burden, with emotion suppression being more prevalent than surface acting, particularly in interactions with parents. Fifty-three percent of educators reported a high emotional burden in parent-related suppression, compared to 38% in interactions with children. Additionally, 38% reported high suppression in self-regulation, while 29% experienced no burden from surface acting. Emotion suppression in parent interactions had the most significant impact on well-being (standardized coefficient = 0.4044, p < .001), followed by education level (coefficient = 0.1646, p < .001). Factors such as generation, teaching experience, salary, and certification were not statistically significant. The model explained 18.7% of the variance in emotional well-being. These findings align with existing literature that highlights the emotional burden of teaching and the psychological toll of unaddressed regulation challenges. Therefore, culturally and contextually appropriate suppression-management training, together with enhanced institutional support, is essential to reduce the emotional burden on Indonesian early childhood educators.

Text readability assessment stands as a fundamental component of foreign language education because it directly determines students' ability to understand their course materials. The ability of current tools, including ChatGPT, to precisely measure text readability remains uncertain. Readability describes the ease with which readers can understand written material, while vocabulary complexity and sentence structure, along with syllable numbers and sentence length, determine its level. The traditional readability formulas rely on data from native speakers yet fail to address the specific requirements of language learners. The absence of appropriate readability assessment methods for foreign language instruction demonstrates the need for specialized approaches in this field. This research investigates the potential use of ChatGPT to evaluate text readability for foreign language students. The examination included selected textbooks through text analysis with ChatGPT to determine their readability level. The obtained results were evaluated against traditional readability assessment approaches and established formulas. The research aims to establish whether ChatGPT provides an effective method to evaluate educational texts for foreign language instruction. The research evaluates ChatGPT's capabilities beyond technical aspects. The study examines how this technology may influence students' learning experiences and outcomes. The text clarity evaluation capabilities of ChatGPT might lead to innovative approaches for developing educational tools. The implementation of this approach would generate lasting benefits for educational practices in schools. For example, ChatGPT’s readability classifications correlated strongly with Flesch-Kincaid scores (r = .75, p < .01), and its mean readability rating (M = 2.17, SD = 1.00) confirmed its sensitivity to text complexity.
