“…One of the skills teachers are required to make data-driven decisions in the classroom, design and evaluate educational programs and interventions, and critically evaluate the results of educational research is a skill that provides them with a systematic and objective way of analyzing and interpreting data and allows for evidence-based decision making. Quantitative analysis skills are an important aspect of research in education and provide a systematic and objective way of analyzing and interpreting data [6] and enable researchers, including teachers, to test hypotheses, determine relationships between variables, and make predictions about future outcomes [7]. With the ability to process and organize large amounts of data, researchers can make sense of complex information and communicate their findings in a clear and concise manner.…”

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the use of technology and the development of research skills in future teachers, specifically current graduate students participating in Mathematical Olympiads. The study used a quantitative approach and analyzed data collected through a survey. The findings indicated that quantitative analysis skills, problem-solving skills, communication skills, and research methodology skills are the dimensions of research skills in future teachers. The results showed that the use of digital tools for literature searching and curation, online courses and workshops (OCWs), collaborative learning and discussion forums, and data analysis software significantly and positively affected research skills. However, the study failed to provide evidence that digital portfolios (DPs) affected research skills. The limitations of the study and recommendations for future research are discussed. In conclusion, the findings highlight the importance of technology in the development of research skills in future teachers and suggest that technology-based learning resources and tools should be integrated into teacher training programs.

Integrating thinking skills into higher education pedagogy requires suitable models, methods, and tools for both instruction and assessment. Some of these tools apply one or more educational technologies. The articles in this special issue focus on higher education with four common themes: online or virtual courses and modules, science and engineering education, active learning methods, and critical thinking. This special issue sheds light on the critical importance of thinking skills development and assessment in higher education and underscores the need for continued research and innovation in the realm of educational technology.
