Development of Attendance Monitoring System with Artificial Intelligence Optimization in Cloud

The creation of an attendance management system based on biometrics is proposed in this research. Keeping track of student attendance during lecture periods has proven to be a difficult task. Because human calculating creates errors and wastes a lot of time, the capacity to compute the attendance percentage becomes a key challenge. For this reason, a biometric-based attendance management system is being developed. This system uses a fingerprint device to take attendance electronically, and the attendance records are kept in a database. Following student identification, attendance is recorded. Artificial intelligence is also proposed as a component of the system. The system will aid in the reduction of errors and the more effective compilation of attendance data.

A Sociological Examination of Parenting Practices and Gifted Education

This literature review uses a socio-cultural lens to explore how income, race, culture, and parenting practices interact to cause, complicate, and further exacerbate the gap in gifted student identification. The article reframes the aforementioned factors using Annette Lareau’s work on concerted cultivation and natural growth models as a theoretical explanation. The authors recommend the following to address gifted education enrollment inequity: enhanced preparation and training of gifted student identification for educators, education about culturally relevant teaching practices, and improvements to the curricula in schools serving minority and low-income students.

Tokenization of educational assets based on blockchain technologies

Possible scenarios for using blockchain technology in the field of education are considered. Methods and technologies of tokenization of assets, related to the educational process, are investigated. It is concluded, that the blockchain technology is decentralized and transparent with a high degree of reliability, which ensures the equality of all users of the chain's services. The transparency of the technology guarantees the participants in the process against abuse and forgery of documents. The study of the features of smart contracts made it possible to form the advantages of smart contracts in the field of education. This is, first of all, the conclusion of agreements without the participation of third parties, as well as the security and confidentiality of agreements. This ensures that the terms and subject of the agreement are kept secret, and that no one else can amend the agreement. At the same time, storing the contract in encrypted form ensures its confidentiality. A decrease in the cost of operations was noted. Tokenization of educational assets is considered on the example of preparing and defending a thesis with the subsequent registration of a diploma. The processes of passing the thesis in the context of using blockchain technology and issuing smart contracts are considered in detail. The advantages of using blockchain technology and smart contracts are illustrated with specific examples. A study of the means and mechanisms for ensuring the confirmation of the authenticity of educational documents, the confidentiality of students' personal cards, and student identification has been carried out. To create a decentralized distributed ledger for tokenization of educational assets, it is proposed to use blockchain technology and smart contracts based on the Ethereum platform

Rethinking how we identify “gifted” students

In the 21st century, what does a defensible, equitable model of gifted and talented student identification look like? For too long, gifted education’s reason for being has been unclear, and the students it has served have been from too narrow a segment of the student population. With renewed attention to equity and personalized learning, gifted education should exist as one pathway through which students can have their needs met. Scott Peters, James Carter, and Jonathan Plucker outline several best practices in identifying gifted and talented students that, if implemented, would better align with the goal of gifted education, while also improving equity.

A proposed Iris Recognition Model for Authentication in Mobile Exams

Mobile learning is an extended version of e-learning. The revolution of handheld devices had encouraged design courses to be compatible with different mobiles versions, brands and platforms. Mobile exams need more attention to strengthen mobile learning certificates. A major issue with mobile exam is student authentication and identification before and during exam session. With no presence of proctor, more techniques are available to ensure student identification. In this paper, we proposed a model that uses a traditional username and password in addition to the biometric iris recognition technique to verify student identity before and during mobile exams.

Local Norms for Gifted and Talented Student Identification: Everything you Need to Know

Conversations over who should be identified as “gifted” continue perpetually both within the fieldand in the popular media. In this paper, we focus on the use of local norms as one approach togifted identification that can increase the equity of advanced educational programs and serviceswhile also better achieving their stated purpose of providing additional challenge to thosestudents who need it. In this paper, we define local norms, explain their purpose, provideexamples of schools who have used local norms, discuss common challenges, and finally weprovide a “how to” tutorial on how schools can begin to use local norms as part of their giftedidentification process.

School identification and school burnout among high school students in faith-based schools in Malaysia.

School identification is defined as the sense of belongingness in a school, which means valuing school and school-related outcomes. Failure to identify with school relates to school withdrawal. Therefore, studies suggest that school makes the effort of increasing student identification. On the other hand, school burnout refers to students fatigue due to excessive academic demands. School burnout relates to absenteeism, low motivation, low achievement, and school dropouts. Schools should, therefore, address school burnout for the benefit of the students. This descriptive quantitative study aimed at analyzing and describing the school identification and school burnout among students of three faith-based high schools in eastern states of Malaysia—Sabah, and Sarawak. Correlation between school identification and school burnout was also investigated along with their effect size. The subjects were 230 students of Form Four and Five, who were studying in the academic year of 2019. This study employed two research instruments. School identification was measured using Identification with School Questionnaire (ISQ) which was developed by K. Voelkl. School burnout was measured using School Burnout Inventory (SBI) developed by K. Salmero-Aro, N. Kiuru, E. Leskinen, and J. Nurmi. The instruments consisted of 7 demographics and 25 Likert scale items. Questionnaires were translated into Bahasa Melayu. For the correlation, data analysis was conducted using Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (Pearson’s r). Both statistical analysis, descriptive and inferential, were processed using SPSS. The result also supports previous findings on gender differences in school burnout and school identification. Pearson r test on the data for student burnout and student identification suggest a correlation. Findings suggested a couple of pointers at the disposal of school administration to increase student’s school identification. Keywords: school burnout; school identification; faith-based, high school
