There has been a significant surge in the use of social media by adolescents. While there are certain advantages to social media, like learning new things and keeping in touch with loved ones, there is growing concern about social media’s detrimental effects on teenage mental health. The purpose of this systematic review is to synthesize the eviden...
The most commonly used sampling techniques in systematic investigations are probability
and nonprobability methods. While probability sampling is based on the principle of a random
selection of participants in a particular study, non-random selection is the basis of probability
sampling. The random and non-random classifications appear to have s...
In educational studies, the paradigm war over quantitative and qualitative research approaches has raged for more than half a century. The focus in the late twentieth century was on the distinction between the two approaches, and the motivation was to retain one of the approaches’ supremacy. Since the early twenty-first century, there has been a gr...
There has been a growing interest in determining whether dishonesty in college can be transferred to the professional workplace. There have been few, yet scarce, studies that focused on the link between college and workplace dishonesty. This review aims to bring into the limelight evidence-based consistency of the links between college and workplac...
Urie Bronfenbrenner's bioecological theory is an important model to illustrate the complexity of reciprocal interactions between growing persons and their multilevel socioecological milieus. In higher education, students' achievement may be similarly affected by manifold bioecological systems. The applications of this holistic theory have been wide...
African researchers could have contributed vital scientific products to the world’s scientific enterprise, yet they have a limited share. There is even a piece of evidence that shows that their role has been falling in the scientific research publication. This has a direct bearing on the development of research, knowledge, and technology transfer i...
Having skimmed through recently published articles of Bahir Journal of Education (BJE), I inadvertently engrossed with a few imperfections that are incompatible with a currently in use publication manual of the American Psychological Association (APA) style. Notwithstanding strong efforts have been made to produce high-quality articles in terms of...

Cooperative learning is an instructional approach that has several advantages to students’ learning. Over the last two decades, Ethiopia has been trying to adopt this approach to its education system. However, little is known about its actual socio-academic advantages and barriers to students. The objective of this study is, therefore, assessing th...
Recent findings show teenagers use social media increasingly in their daily life. There is also a consensus that social media have both pros and perils on students’ academic affairs. The objective of this study is to assess how Ethiopian secondary school students perceive the benefits and risks associated with social media use. Data were collected...
One of the 4Cs school's core competencies in the 21st century is a collaborative learning with a heightened reputation that enables learners to become competent in the global economy. More than a decade ago, along with this growing concern, peer-led collaborative learning (PLCL) approach has been adopted and stuck into Ethiopian educational systems...

What are the differences between pilot surveys and pilot testing in research?
While social media can certainly be used in a way that promotes isolation and individualism, it has also proven to be a powerful tool for fostering collective action and social movements. For example, social media platforms have been instrumental in organizing protests, boycotts, and other forms of collective action around a wide range of issues (negative energy). It is also used for climate change and racial justice to combat political corruption and economic inequality (positive energy). Additionally, social media has allowed marginalized groups and individuals to amplify their voices and challenge dominant narratives, leading to increased awareness of social and political injustices. In short, while social media can be used for both positive and negative purposes, how acceptable is it for some authors to exaggerate the harmful side of social media?
Social and behavioral scientists face several key methodological challenges. The main problems include human behavior and social phenomena, which are inherently complex and influenced by a variety of factors. Social problems are “wicked problems” without easy solutions, and measuring human behavior, emotions, and social interactions can be difficult and have replication problems. Are there other findings that could pose a hurdle for social scientists?
There is a delicate and complex interplay between the ethical implications of emerging technologies and applying them to teaching children. Consequently, the discussion on this topic is ongoing and evolving as several new technologies emerge. It's important to stay informed and engage in critical discussions with educators, parents, and policymakers to ensure the responsible and ethical use of technology in education.
How can educators, parents, and policymakers ensure the privacy, security, autonomy, well-being, and prevention of harassment caused by these technologies?
In writing theses, the purpose statement is a prevalent practice. This is, however, less frequently covered in the writing of scientific papers. How to address the purpose statement in an article in a clear and understandable way?
Almost every academic writer, reviewer, and journal editor seeks to make academic articles more complicated. Academic papers are, on the other hand, aimed to reveal, refine, and disseminate valuable innovations. Similarly, incredibly simple articles are better suited to reaching a broad audience. So, why are we demanding complicated scholarly articles?
Is the skill of writing scientific paper for publication art or science?
Likert scale is commonly used in social and behavioral sciences. The matter is whethere there is a condition that a single item in the measurement could be used for analysis and provide meaningful data.
Child abuse has received especial attention so far across the globe. But in a few African countries it remained a culture. Such deed is no more perceived as illegal in such a culture. Even people respond that maintaining child right is putting the child into undesirable behavior. There are policies, but only a few obey them. Dealing with such a condition seems daunting. How such a culture changed among the western? May economic conditions impact?
As scholars in low socio-economic development, we have found it challenging to reach students using the online model. It is in the contexts where education and technology foundations are scarce, students have less ability to utilize technology, and teachers have not yet developed the ability to provide articulated instruction to students using technology. How can we maintain keeping in touch with students during COVID-19 and let them learn?
We are facing people tried to change corona virus issues into political agenda.
It is believed that there are several depressed people of COVID-19 lockdown. How a psychologist could support them amid the lockdown?
Preparedness has been largely addressed in clinical and social settings. It has not been addressed rigorously in academic milieu. Hence, how could we explain preparedness in academia?
