“…First, the data generated by the evaluation of the training support the decision-making process that allows adjusting the interventions, extending them, cutting them or replacing them. In addition, the evaluation is used to verify that training contributes to improving the training system, to skills development, and to knowing whether training has influenced performance (Zala-Mezö et al, 2019). The second way is through the reactions of those trained because satisfaction is considered an element that significantly affects training transfer (Colquitt et al, 2000).…”

“…It has been proven that the implementation of the training and the support of the application have a positive relationship with the transfer of training and that the evaluation of the training mediates EJTD 46,5/6 this relationship. These results have two practical implications: the first, the importance of managers' and department heads' support for the transfer of training and the second, the importance of implementing training evaluation processes in schools as evaluation is linked to training transfer (Zala-Mezö et al, 2019). The critical idea is to create learning environments, which support formal learning and self-learning, and informal learning in the workplace (Baldwin et al, 2017).…”

Purpose The transfer of training has been identified with the effectiveness of training. The purpose of this work is to analyse the impact of training stages (training needs analysis, application and evaluation) as they relate to training transfer. Design/methodology/approach The study participants correspond to a sample of 116 teachers with managerial responsibilities (management teams and department heads) from 17 secondary schools in Spain. This work hypothesises five significant relationships: needs analysis and application of training, application and transfer of training, evaluation and analysis of training needs, evaluation and application of training and evaluation and transfer of training. The hypotheses were tested using structural equations, namely, the partial least squares–structural equation modelling technique and SmartPLS version 3.2.9. Findings The relationships between application and transfer of training, between evaluation of training and needs analysis, application and transfer of training are positively contrasted. The relationship between the analysis and application of training is not contrasted. Originality/value This work analyses the relationship between the training process’s different phases (analysis, application and evaluation) in the training output (training transfer) and emphasises the role of evaluation in the training process.

“…Education quality evaluation has amassed a lot of data as a key component of learning and teaching. e data conceals a wealth of laws and issues that must be uncovered and applied immediately [9]. One important area of data research is how to use big data responsibly to support decision-making for the advancement of all spheres of life.…”

This study presents the fundamental guidelines for developing an evaluation index system for political thought education in light of the shortcomings of the current system, including its limited evaluation objectives, singular evaluation methods, lack of pertinence of evaluation indexes, and subjectivity of evaluation standards. In parallel, big data-related technologies are being used to determine the indicators and index weight coefficients of the evaluation system of political thought teaching in institutions of higher learning. This is done on the basis of earlier research on big data and teaching evaluation. The decision tree method is used in this study to create a prediction model for teaching evaluation, which is then pruned based on “relative support” to categorize the sample data. The decision tree method is aimed at a large number of teachers’ information databases. The model is validated at the end. According to the experimental findings, this educational evaluation system is stable to a degree of 94.6 percent, and its evaluation accuracy can reach a level of 95.33 percent. The validity and reliability of the educational evaluation system developed in this study are confirmed by this result. Big data can therefore be used to evaluate political thought instruction in higher education institutions, which offers some fresh perspectives for related research.

“…pre-service TSE in combining NS knowledge in their pedagogical methods will significantly explain the variance in attitudes towards change (combining knowledge from NS research in education), was refuted in this study. This finding was surprising in regards to previous studies, since according to the literature, teachers' high or low efficacy may influence levels of change's implementation (Stanton, Cawthon, & Dawson, 2018), and that change-related self-efficacy proved to be a solid predictor for positive attitudes and behavior in organizational changes (Zala-Mezö, Raeder, & Strauss, 2019).) In their study from 2013, a number of 700 elementary school teachers were surveyed; the data indicated a positive association between self-efficacy and attitudes toward change.…”

Keywords:Neuroeducation, Teacher Self-Efficacy, Attitudes toward Change, Pre-Service Teachers.Neuroeducation is defined as a growing interdisciplinary field based on the synergic connection between neuroscience, cognitive science, psychology and education to improve the theoretical and practical understanding of learning and education. Besides the characteristics of the learners, the process of implementation of an innovative approach such as neuroeducation in the classroom involves psycho-social characteristics of the educators, such as teacher self-efficacy and attitudes toward change. The aim of this research was to explore which factors may explain the variance in pre-service teacher's attitudes towards using concepts from neuroeducation in education and teaching. Thirty-three Israeli pre-service teachers (PSTs) who participated in a neuroscience training program filled out a battery of questionnaires targeting their self-efficacy and attitudes toward change. A regression analysis revealed a positive correlation between PSTs' roles regarding combining neuroscience in education, the amount of time they are willing to invest in introducing change in their teaching methods and attitudes toward change in combining knowledge from neuroscience in education. Also, a negative correlation between PSTs' self-efficacy and attitudes toward change regarding combining knowledge from neuroscience in education was found. Possible explanations and the contribution to knowledge were discussed.
