4. RALSA : priročnik za uporaboPlamen Mirazchiyski, 2024, scientific monograph Abstract: Ta priročnik je prevod priročnika RALSA: User Guide (v angl.), ki je dostopen na povezavi: https://ralsa.ineri.org/user-guide/. Nastanku orodja/platforme RALSA (The R Analyzer for Large-Scale Assessments) je botrovalo to, da je dr. Plamen Vladkov Mirazchiyski iskal bolj dostopne in celovite rešitve za analizo podatkov mednarodnih primerjalnih raziskav in študij na področju vzgoje in izobraževanja - zaradi kompleksnosti in dizajna vzorčenja teh raziskav, pa tudi zaradi določenih razlik pri omenjeni kompleksnosti teh raziskav. RALSA je tako orodje za analizo podatkov, ki jih zberemo v okviru mednarodnih primerjalnih raziskav in študij na področju vzgoje in izobraževanja. Zasnova teh raziskav je kompleksna, tako v smislu vzorčenja, kot v smislu zasnove kognitivnih instrumentov, ki merijo znanja na številnih področjih. Sodelujejo pa ne le učenci oz. dijaki, temveč tudi njihovi učitelji, ravnatelji šol, v nekaterih primerih tudi starši, pa tudi IKT koordinatorji na šolah. Zaradi vsega naštetega klasični programi za statistično izračunavanje niso ustrezni, ker moramo tudi pri analizah upoštevati vse te specifike. Še več, obstajajo tudi določene razlike med posameznimi mednarodnimi primerjalnimi raziskavami in študijami (tako pri zasnovi kognitivnih instrumentov in izračunih na tej podlagi, kot pri samem vzorčenju). Prav zato ni na voljo ene rešitve, ki bi bila ustrezna za vsako od teh specifik. RALSA pa vse navedeno upošteva že avtomatično.

6. The relative effect of job demands, resources, and personal resources on teaching quality and students' engagement during the COVID-19 pandemicŽan Lep, Eva Klemenčič Mirazchiyski, Plamen Mirazchiyski, 2023, original scientific article Abstract: During the COVID-19 pandemic's school closures and the distance education that resulted from it, teachers were faced with an increasing workload and significant changes in their working environment. Because increased workload can result not only in worsened mental health and lower work motivation, but also in worsened learning outcomes, this article explores how teacher-perceived job demands, job resources, and personal resources are related to teachers' assessment of teaching quality and student engagement during the pandemic. Using the data of 1,422 8th grade teachers in Slovenia from the IEA Responses to Educational Disruptions Survey (REDS) survey, this study also explores the perceived level of support from different institutional actors and the utility of Job demands-resources model for this specific group of workers in a specific work setting. The results show that the teachers of 8th graders in Slovenia perceived a higher level of support from their closest working environment compared to the national bureaucracy. In terms of job demands, the increased workload in preparing the lessons had negative effect on both teaching quality and student engagement, while the reported increase in time spent on direct work with students and social support received (a job resource) contributed positively to both outcome variables. In line with theoretical expectations, personal resources were positive predictors of teaching quality and student engagement in our model. Compared with the initial expectations this study had based on the underlying theoretical model, the results paint a complex relationship between job characteristics and learning outcomes during distance learning. Thus, some of the challenges both teachers and policy-makers face and will continue to face in possible similar situations are discussed.

7. An analysis of PIRLS 2021 mode effects : differences in reading achievement related to the assessment mode for PIRLS 2021 in Croatia and SloveniaEva Klemenčič Mirazchiyski, Plamen Mirazchiyski, Ines Perović, 2025, independent scientific component part or a chapter in a monograph Abstract: This chapter analyzes the differences in reading achievements related to different assessment modes (digital and paper) among students in Croatia and Slovenia using IEA’s Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS) 2021 data. It focuses on the relationship various ICT-related variables may have with the reading achievement by the mode of administration. The findings revealed no significant differences in average reading scores between the two modes, with both education systems showing similar outcomes. Although differences in achievement between the two modes could not be detected, nuances emerged regarding the association between ICT variables and reading achievement. Notably, ownership and the sharing of digital devices like smartphones indicated contrasting impacts for each country, suggesting country-specific digital divides. Additionally, while certain ICT resources seemed to marginally benefit reading scores, the general lack of significant disparities between digital and paper assessments highlights the complex interplay of factors influencing educational outcomes. Digital self-efficacy is related to reading achievement only in Slovenia. The study outlined in this chapter calls for nuanced understanding and policy interventions considering these subtle yet crucial differences.

10. Contemporary gaps in research on digital divide in education : a literature reviewPlamen Mirazchiyski, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: While computer technology permeates all spheres of life in modern society, the outcomes of using technology are different for different groups. The “digital divide” is probably one of the most undefined terms in educational research. One of the most pressing challenges is the definition of digital divide itself. Many of the contemporary research papers still focus on the gaps in access/possession of technology while this issue is not as relevant as it used to be. Most contemporary research papers simply do not even provide a definition of the construct they investigate. Those who target higher levels of the digital divide do not define the strand they focus on or use different interchangeable terms to name it. This article reviews contemporary literature critically and clarifies basic terms related to the digital divide with a specific focus on computer and information literacy. It also provides a definition of the digital divide that shifts focus from the traditional understanding of its levels and focuses on computer and information literacy as its core, as this construct encompasses all “new literacies” and is crucial for functioning and achieving outcomes in the information society.
