Spotlight Research

A conference presentation is in progress. A slide titled "Mapping the STEM Microcredential Landscape" is displayed behind two presenters and an audience. The slide includes text about educational innovations and technology, a QR code, and a web address. A presenter gestures with his right hand while speaking. Another presenter points to the screen with a pen. The audience is seated at tables with water bottles and notebooks.

From Frameworks to Practice in STEM Microcredentials

A new two‑volume series, “Mapping the Landscape of STEM Microcredentials,” edited by UF researchers, offers a rigorous, cross‑sector synthesis of how microcredential systems are defined, designed, quality‑assured, and evaluated. Bridging theory and practice through foundational frameworks and global case studies, it brings coherence to how skills are demonstrated and recognized—strengthening pathways from learning to career.

Going Beyond the Brick: Assessing and Supporting Creativity Using AI-Powered Digital Games

Abstract To support creativity, one should first assess it accurately. New techniques such as stealth assessment that use digital environments (e.g. digital games) can be used to assess and support creativity. In this paper, I discuss my passion for creativity and how...

Unreliable Continuous Treatment Indicators in Propensity Score Analysis

Abstract Propensity score analyses (PSA) of continuous treatments often operationalize the treatment as a multi-indicator composite, and its composite reliability is unreported. Latent variables or factor scores accounting for this unreliability are seldom used as...

An Introduction to Bayesian Knowledge Tracing with pyBKT

Abstract This study aims to introduce Bayesian Knowledge Tracing (BKT), a probabilistic model used in educational data mining to estimate learners’ knowledge states over time. It also provides a practical guide to estimating BKT models using the pyBKT library...
