The Impact of Extracurricular Activities on Pre-Service Teacher Professional Development: A Structural Equation Modeling Study by Funda Uysal

“…The model demonstrated strong explanatory power for self-efficacy (R² = 72.8%), professional interest (R² = 78.7%), self-regulation (R² = 77.2%), and teacher–student relationships (R² = 63.1%) while explaining only 1.8% of academic achievement variance. This pattern reveals distinct developmental pathways for professional versus academic competencies, leading to a comprehensive practical implications framework supporting multidimensional assessment approaches in teacher education. …”

Physiological normoxia and absence of EGF is required for the long-term propagation of anterior neural precursors from human pluripotent cells. by Bilada Bilican, Matthew R Livesey, Ghazal Haghi, Jing Qiu, Karen Burr, Rick Siller, Giles E Hardingham, David J A Wyllie, Siddharthan Chandran

“…NPCs generated in this way display a stable long-term anterior forebrain identity and importantly retain developmental competence to patterning signals. Moreover, compared to NPCs maintained at ambient O2 (21%), they exhibit enhanced uniformity and speed of functional maturation, yielding both deep and upper layer cortical excitatory neurons. …”
